Star Wars: Episode VIII: The Last Jedi

The EU. Is fine. Just called legends now.
Don't think it's mentioned in new canon at all.

[epilogue]

I guess I just know it from talking to people more versed in canon than me. Sorry, team. I really thought it was in RotS for some reason, but I can't find anything. Just ignore me.

Never!

There's a lot on Wookiepidia about it. But I don't know how much of any of it is canon anymore. I don't know. I know I love Strat, though. I do know that.

Not listening to that. You're a valuable and appreciated holocron of our very own.

Making Star Wars posted a story about little bird creatures on the island with Luke. I put my thinking cap on and mailed Jason at MSW asking could they be the little birds we see with Ahsoka and Bendu. He did some digging. It turns out it might well be them.

Spoiler: show

they don't like Rey and she defeats some sea monster and then they accept her or so the leak goes

Im so ready to get some glimpses of this

Here's one from Rian Johnson

Remember that Star Wars: The Force Awakens cliffhanger with new heroine Rey (Daisy Ridley) bringing Jedi master Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) his old lightsaber on a remote intergalactic island? Writer/director Rian Johnson is picking up right where they left off in the beginning of the Star Wars saga’s still-untitled next chapter. “I don’t want to skip ahead two years,” Johnson says. “I want to see the very next moment of what happens.” How Rey and Luke relate to each other is the key relationship in Episode VIII, and Johnson says “a large part of the movie” will be spent addressing why Luke’s there and what he’ll do next. Like Luke, Rey has been pulled into a bigger world by connecting with the Force, “but part of what’s she’s dealing with is the realization that she has this power and this gift,” Johnson adds. “She’s taking her first step to coming to terms with this thing inside her that she never knew was there and is just starting to reveal its potential.”

Recently, rumors that much of the movie would be spent on Ahch-To came into prominence, mostly due to the Episode VIII coverage found over at Making Star Wars. Now, it looks like there’s some solid evidence to suggest that a good portion of the Luke-Rey section of the movie will indeed take place on the planet… Which, of course, naturally raises questions about what the other characters will be up to.

Also worth noting is that the article mentions that how Luke and Rey relate to one another is an important aspect to the movie. Maz Kanata previously implied that Luke had a role in Rey’s past, and Daisy Ridley said that she felt that The Force Awakens made it obvious who her parents were. Are we headed for another Skywalker familial reveal in the Sequel Trilogy, or is it simply that Luke sees Rey as a kindred spirit in their presumed teacher-and-student relationship? We’ve only got about a week and eleven months to go until we find out!

This is gonna be great!

[dimejinky99]

This is gonna be great!

No doubt.



I had an idea. Perhaps in that last scene in 7 Luke is so upset when Rey arrives cos he knows Leia has died and he's felt it through the force. Rey wouldn't know yet cos of the commute time.
That would leave them open to handle Leias passing in the crawl. We know for almost certain she gets injured and is out of action from early in the film. They could easily rejig it to have her passing off screen.

But her scenes have already been shot and her story is integral to the story

I think its a good idea for ep 9.

I really want to see whatever Leia did in this one.
