Star Wars The Last Jedi: Why does Luke want the end of the Jedi in the trailer?

Cinema 15 April, 2017

And yes, Luke took us by surprise when he evoked the end of the Jedi in the trailer of Star Wars: The Last Jedi! But what could he mean by that?
Unless you live like hermits at the bottom of a cave, you certainly have not missed the trailer of Star Wars: The Last Jedi ! Already because he was so hungry that he soon became crazy when he learned that he would land during the Star Wars Celebration. Then because it was announced in great pomp before we put our eyes full with lightsaber lights that illuminate and ships exploding. And then, above all, there is Luke, whose voice you FINALLY heard! After appearing only two minutes in Star Wars: The Reveil of Force , where he remained terribly mute, now our Jedi dares to utter a few words. And what words! To say that they left us as puzzled as they were intrigued – even shocked, For some – are euphemistic. As he speaks to Rey, he says at the end of the trailer: ” It’s time for the Jedi to disappear .” Uh …, wait, WHAT ?! What does that mean, exactly? Why would Luke come up with this kind of talk, he who followed the teachings of the Jedi and even tried to reform the Jedi Order? As they nevertheless deserve to be asked, Melty ‘s draft deals with these issues a little. Exactly?

What is certain is that Rian Johnson did not joke when he decided to titled this Episode VIII ” The Last Jedi “. By discovering this title, it was evidently said that it smelled bad enough for the Jedi and that these were probably condemned to disappear, definitively this time. So, hearing Luke evoking the end of the Jedi only confirms our fears. But what could have driven our hero to reject what he believed for years? One can imagine that Ben’s betrayal and the death of his apprentices have dealt a terrible blow to his faith . Besides, one would almost come to believe that Luke could regret to have become a Jedi in Star Wars: The Last Jedi . However, Other reasons could also explain his renunciation. We know that he went into exile on Ahch-To, apparently in search of the first Jedi temple. And who knows if he did not discover during his investigations something that forced him to question his beliefs? After all, the Jedi have now existed for thousands of years and nothing tells us that their teachings have not, in time, been removed from the philosophy of the very first Jedi. Perhaps Luke understood that these, as they have been during past centuries past, are no longer able to maintain order in the galaxy. But, and there is also the question, does he really want the Jedi to disappear completely ? We know that he went into exile on Ahch-To, apparently in search of the first Jedi temple.

Because, as we mentioned when we deciphered the trailer of Star Wars: The Last Jedi , Rey uses a term that made us listen. And this term is ” balance “. From here to say that she wants to speak here of the balance between light and darkness, there is only one step that one would like to cross lightly! Especially since the poster of the film that was unveiled at the Star Wars Celebration, where Rey wields a light saber that goes from blue to red, tends to express the same idea. Then it could be that Luke wants the end of the Jedi only to give birth to a new form of use of the Force. A use that would draw as much in its luminous side as in its dark side and which would thus reach the balance, precisely, between the two . And in this case, the Jedi philosophy as it was carried by Obi-Wan, Yoda or even Mace Windu would actually disappear. In any case, Rey follows a completely new form of training (quite rough, by the way) and that the way she uses the Force afterwards will be very different from that of her mentor! Anyway, the trailer of Star Wars: The Last Jedi is likely to sink a lot of ink in the weeks to come. What do you think of Luke’s words?
