    Luke turning to the dark side would also defeat the original three movies. But since Disney is rebooting Star Wars anyways....

    Actually I would love to see Luke fight. Also, I wonder what they are going to do about Leia?

    Reincarnate her as a porg.

    Luke is waiting for the chosen to find him, which is why he is hiding, so not just anyone could find him, only one chosen by destiny...

    Otherwise he would have destroyed Snoke himself, which he can not, because... He's not the chosen one.

    Just like how Yoda couldn't defeat Sidious, he wasn't the chosen one...

    Kylo must be under the belief that Snoke and he can somehow bring back Vadar...

    Actually Luke has "given up" on the Jedi and will refuse to teach Rey, at least at first. He is still a threat to Snoke which is why Snoke wants to find him, as he is the last Jedi.

    1- Luke "giving up" just doesn't make sense... I've never bought into the idea that Luke is hiding because he's embarrassed about what happened Kylo...

    2- If he's given up, why is he at the first jedi temple

    Also Snoke doesn't care about finding Luke, he simply wanted the map destroyed, Snoke knows Luke is waiting for the chosen one who will destroy him

    Interesting theory but I wouldn't write it...

    Luke gave up because ben solo went crazy and killed all the apprentaces in a betrayal that no one saw coming after he found out vader was his grandpa.

    The regret and the guilt of that incident is why he gave up.

    Sorry Cap but I respectfully disagree, that would just make him to weak a hero...

    After 30yrs, I doubt Luke is hiding or has given up... Not his style.

    I wouldn't tarnish Luke as a character by writing that script, nor would I appreciate it... He's not after Snoke right now because he knows he's not the chosen one and can't defeat him.

    If he dies then there's no one to teach the chosen one...

    It's possible that once he sees Rey, he will at first be reluctant to train her because of the burden but I think she changes his mind

    It's actually cannon and referenced in the force awakens, as well as the actual scene partially being shown in flashback

    Luke thinks he failed and/or the Jedi have become outdated. He will refuse to teach Rey at first. Snoke wants to hunt down the last Jedi. This movie will be the reboot of Empire in the way that the First Order will be on the offensive and have the upper hand.

    That or Luke's gone crazy and is trying to teach the Porgs how to become Jedi. ;)

    I don't believe what Han Solo said in the script, he knows the real reason Luke is hiding, but what's he going to say... Luke's waiting for the chosen one, it has to be kept a secret.

    Han Solo said it as if it was a lie... And I don't doubt Kylo massacred Luke's students but that doesn't mean Luke ran off... That just makes him look like a baby, I'm certain that's not how things will unfold

    I will be super disappointed if that turns out to be true

    Prepare to be disappointed. Look, isn't hiding on a remote planet (and there are caretakers there, FYI, not just porgs) because he is waiting for the chosen one a little counter productive. If he was waiting for the chosen one wouldn't he just rebuild the Jedi Temple as well. Why hide at all? Because it's some kind of test? That's not very logical or efficient, nor does that go with the info out there. He thinks there is a flaw with the Jedi because the Jedi have not evolved unlike the Sith.

    His best friends' son/ nephew slaughtered his entire Jedi temple. What would you do after having someone you trust and love that much do something that evil? Not to mention disappointing Han and Leia.

    Luke has lost faith in the Jedi ways and will not want to teach Rey when she first arrives. The first words out of his mouth will be, "who are you?". This is a fact.
