If so, I heard it as stating that Rey is something else, the thing that comes after the Jedi.
Or maybe he himself has become more than Jedi.
Or maybe he's just wallowing in self pity since his Jedi Academy failed/ he failed as a teacher to Ben. There is great precedence in his being a whiner.
I think this is all tying back to what George intended with the prequels and explored more fully in The Clone Wars: the Jedi aren't as noble and good as they believe themselves to be. This new trilogy might connect some major dots and provide real closure. It might all come full circle. Christ this is exciting! I'm having a hard time articulating what I'm thinking/feeling about those images and that line.
But ultimately the Force is not something that can be tucked away and forgotten. So what is bringing balance to the force exactly?
What does Luke have in mind? He may not literally mean to end the jedi, and im sure that Dialogue was placed in the trailer as its so provocative. In the greater context im sure it will mean something far more poignant and im excited to find out.
In lukes isolation I am certain he had learned plenty about the History of the Jedi and came to the realization that the Sith/Jedi battle has brought nothing but Chaos to the Galaxy and he would like to end that.

EEEEEEEK!
What if it's Obi-Wan's journal that Luke has been reading in the Star Wars comic?

Exactly. I'm sure that will be a big part of it. Let's be clear: I'm not saying he's advocating and end to The Force or anything like that. I think this movie, this trilogy, is going to introduce the film audience to what we've been seeing in the animated series' for a while now. The Jedi are not the Force. Ending the Jedi is not the same as ending the Force. I wonder if Lucasfilm isn't trying to get us used to the idea of new Star Wars stories (that will still include the Force and maybe even light sabers, etc) without "Jedi." The Jedi Order will be gone. And we'll focus on whatever comes next.

I can't believe I have to go sit in a car for hours and not just stay here and pour over every shot.
That shot of those sand ships was really cool, and the falcon leading those ships into battle, and the space chaos, and the shot of ren, and pretty much everything
