SPOILER Following up on that "LUKE THEORY WHICH SHALL NOT BE NAMED"

Since this is a Luke and the unnamed theory thread... I figured this would be the place to post this...

I just read an interesting post over on moviepilot, and while I am not sure I go for all of it, I am throwing it in here as food for thought... this was posted October 13th, 2014

<clears throat... ahem>

Spoiler: Is it who we think it is?

So recent rumors have been going around about Luke Skywalker being The Inquisitor in Star Wars: Episode VII and others about Luke being an old hermit like Obi-wan was in Episode IV. Now, this is strictly my opinion on the matter so please don't hate as much as we all did the Phantom Menace. I believe that The Inquisitor is Luke but not the Luke we know. Oh, no, I think that this Luke is a clone of our beloved Luke because of a few vital clues given to us:

• One is that Disney is allowing the EU be a part of the film universe which means that a retelling of the 'Thrawn Trilogy' could have happened and clone Luke Skywalker is created by Joruus C'baoth from Luke's severed hand and brings about the reemerging of the Imperial Army.

• Two is that Luke Skywalker is Grand Master Jedi, (or the human version of yoda), which in a way, means that he has controlled the darkness trying to take influence of him. He is also guided by Obi-wan, Yoda, maybe even Qui-gon and they're input in Luke's ways helps him prevent the dark side from taking him over.
• Three is that cloning is an important key thing in the Star Wars Universe because of the 'Clone Wars', the 'Thrawn Trilogy', 'Dark Empire', and many more stories.

Now let's just say that The Inquisitor is our Luke and that he fell to the dark side. That is ok because this has happened before to our hero and he has prevailed. A few examples are:

• In one of the drafts for Return of the Jedi, Luke is said to have watched Vader die, put on his helmet, fly out into the space battle, and command the Empire to destroy the Rebellion.
• In the comic book 'Dark Empire', Luke and Leia are trapped by the spirit of the Emperor and Luke sacrifices himself to the dark side in order for Leia and unborn son Anakin to flee safely. Spoiler: Later in the story arc, Luke comes back to the light side so score one for the Jedi.

Luke could be a Jedi though and maybe even founded the Jedi Academy. Leaked photos of an alleged Luke's hideout could be an ancient place for force users and Luke is simply learning more of the force...or feeling the disturbance in it.

Whatever the case maybe, any option works with whatever direction the film is going to go in. Luke could be a Jedi, a Sith, or both and will be an even better plot than what the prequels had to offer with the few exceptions of Revenge of the Sith because a few parts of the film were actually good. Like the opera house scene, the scene when Anakin is in the Jedi council room and has to decide on the Jedi order or on the one he loves, and, of course, the final lightsaber scene with Anakin and Obi-wan because the music, the environment, and emotion of it all was totally great, but we'll get into this another time.

 

Just speculation like we post. Never knew there were rumors that Luke was the inquisitor and the fact that the inquisitor on rebels is not human kind of debunks his theory. We don't know if there is more than one inquisitor, if there was it makes the Rebels character less important.

 

I think what they are referring to as the "inquisitor" is the pic of the person holding the fragment of Vader's helmet... and tying it in to the cyborg. From that point of view, as the rumors hinted at, the cyborg would be Luke, but there would be a twist....

I re-edited my post to include the images they had, and where they had them, to clear up that the "inquisitor" image is the one they were referring to...

However, this would tie in the rumor about Luke's hand in the only way I would find remotely acceptable. I certainly hope that this isn't about a cloned Luke being the bad guy, but...

 

Luke is not a badguy and never will be and thats all there is to it

 

Do you have proof?

 

Sydow has already done this:

Episode VII: Space-aged super lasers that can incinerate an entire metropolis. An army of deadly hockey warriors.

 

This has what to do with this thread? This isn't even the Sydow thread!?!?!?!

btw, I remember this when it was new...

 

@Kyle will the pictures you described be showing up online anytime soon? Do you think LucasFIlm will release them?

 

Not intentionally, at any rate...

 

Not even a teaser image?

 

For Christmas... maybe... if you are a good boy... and it isn't unheard of doing teasers a year out, but... I wouldn't look for anything official until mid summer
