  • Most people can agree that the way Luke Skywalker died in the Sequel trilogy was very underwhelming and disappointing.
    But how did he die in the Legends Expanded Universe?
    Well, we actually don’t know.
    You see as of the recording of this video, there is no information or explanation in Legends as to how Luke Skywalker dies?
    But we do know that he eventually dies between the years 45 ABY and 130 ABY which means Luke lived to be around 69 to 149 years old!
    And we also know that when he died, he instantly became a Force Ghost like Obi Wan and Yoda.
    But even as a Force Ghost, Luke continued to help and guide the Jedi Order for many years, even showing up decades later to support his descendant Cade Skywalker!

    He's about 65 in the final book featuring him. He fully reestablished the Jedi order and by that time had about a thousand Jedi knights. He reestablished the Jedi council, and had a fully rebuilt temple on Coruscant.

      His father wasn't his responsibility. Luke didn't train his father. He never met his father until he was steeped in the Dark Side and had already commited countless atrocities, nothing he could do would undo those acts. And yet his still nearly killed his father before redeeming him.
      His nephew was Luke's responsibility. Luke helped train him as a child. Luke felt the dark future (because seeing the future is LITERALLY a Force Power, it's called Farseeing, so referring to it as a bad dream seems pretty disrespectful to one of the most powerful Force Users to exist) that was possible for his nephew, dozens of atrocities that had not yet come to be, but that could if he allowed them to pass. Yet even with that, he only considered taking action against his nephew for an instinctual moment. But that was enough.
      Luke is literally on the other side of the situation with his father than he was with his nephew. The fact people seem not to understand this difference is not surprising. Also, if you accept that Luke is more powerful later on than he is in Return of the Jedi, then you must agree that people grow and change over time, or else you are openly hypocritical. Luke in a New Hope would mqke different decisions than Luke from Return of the Jedi because there is a difference of experience between those points in his life, for better or for worse. I can agree that The Last Jedi didn't do a fantastic job explaining why Luke is different, but to expecting Luke to be and act the same as the last time we saw him is frankly improbable.

Even if I take seriously the event who develop this (Luke almost killing Ben, what makes no sense because he can left out his fury i'm the fight with Vader. An older and wiser version should not easy fall for that) isn't factible Luke just exiles himself and abandon his friends
      That wasn't character development, it's a total rewriting of the character.
      Anyways The Last Jedi is that bad what it waste filming time in two uselles subplots (Pol rebelry and Finn quest) instead of trying explain the Luke perspective in a more convincing way.

      @@francopaoloni4701 Two points I want to add briefly. One, in RotJ, Luke does give into his anger at least twice, once with the emperor, where he is only stopped by Vader (otherwise he would’ve killed Palpatine in cold blood) and again when Vader is down on the ground and Luke is swinging frantically at him until he sees Vader’s mechanical parts and realizes his mistake. Two, this post is about Luke’s death in TLJ, which I think fits Luke’s character pretty well - once Luke shows up, he apologizes to Kylo and saves all the good guys, sacrificing himself so they can live on. That sounds more like the definition of a true Jedi to me than murdering all the bad guys.

    Personal head canon: Luke gathers his students young and old, giving a partial farewell telling them not to be sad as he'll return soon. He hops into his now very old X wing with R2 by his side as they leave the temple and head back to Tatooine. When they arrive, they're greeted by 3P0, who'd gotten a personal ride to see them. They all walk the streets as Luke looks around seeing visions of Ep 4. Eventually arriving at the farmhouse where he grew up. They have one last meal together as Luke imagines him his wife, aunt and uncle, Han, Leia, a baby Ben Solo, Chewy, R2, 3P0, Obi-Wan, Ahsoka, Padme and Anakin all together. And at sunset he walks outside where he stares at the binary sunset as the force ghosts of Leia, Obi-Wan, Yoda, Qui gon, and Anakin gather around him. As Anakin asks "You ready Son?" Luke replies "Ya I am." His robes fall as all that remains is a force ghost of Luke then the scene ends with him uttering "May the force be with us all."

    I'm guessing 149 is probably the more accurate death age, just because it is canon that force sensitives live longer. And honestly, 150 is probably on the low end for how long the force could help extend Luke's life given how powerful he is in Legends.

    The last book I read, he was in his 60s, was the grandmaster of the Jedi order and had a son named ben who was also a Jedi. Chewie had died in the vong saga, Han and leia were married and had three children, all Jedi until Jason becomes a sith and is killed by his twin sister after being additionally trained by boba fett, the mandalore. Only the daughter Jana was still living amongst the three solo children. The cannon continued to be told in real time for 40 years until Disney came along and crushed it on one swoop.

Luke feels like a real character in The sequels, just like he does in the original movies, instead of some plot device.

Most people who like the prequels don't understand that they're the people being critiqued, that the prequel trilogy is a criticism of liberal bourgeois democracy, and how it will always defer to fascism, rather than side with organized labor.

    Luke never died in the EU, which is canon not "Legends", because Lucas had just a few but very strict rules about what the writers were allowed to do. Namely Luke, 3PO and R2 could never be killed. That's it. Other than that he let the writers do whatever they wanted. Though he did provide feedback from time to time. In the New Jedi Order series they were originally going to kill Han but Lucas told the writers the fans wouldn't care enough about his death. So they killed Chewie instead.

    We don't know how Luke died in the EU, and that's how it should be.
    Too many writers succumb to the notion that they need to kill off their character, and that is simply not true. Now, obviously, it depends on the story and the character. However far too many times have I seen a character death that was underwhelming at best, infuriating at worst and all too often completely unnecessary.
    More writers need to understand that oftentimes, no definitive ending they can create will be as satisfying as positive ambiguity. Seeing our hero ride off (or in Luke's case fly off in his X-Wing) into the sunset with the promise of more adventure is what I would argue most fans really want to be the last image of that character.
    If I had made the Sequel Trilogy, that would've been Luke's fate. Luke would've also once again been the main protagonist. Yes, there would've been new characters to pass the torch to, but ultimately, Luke would still have been the main focus, and as I said before, he would've flown off into the twin sunset.
