MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD.
Who the fuck was Snoke, anyway?
In Force Awakens, Snoke was a pretty mysterious character with no backstory. The Last Jedi didn’t give us any more answers as to who he was. How is he so strong with the Force and how did he meet Ben Solo?
LucasFilm
Is Snoke truly dead?
If he is so powerful, could he come back to life in some form?
Lucasfilm
What the heck is connecting Kylo Ren and Rey, then, after Snoke died?
Snoke explained that he was the one that infiltrated Kylo’s mind and connected him to Rey. But, after Snoke is killed, Kylo and Rey still have the connection.
LucasFilm
Is Kylo Ren lying to Rey about who her parents were?
While it seems like a reasonable explanation that her parents were nobodies, it could also be Kylo playing mind games with Rey.
LucasFilm
Why did Rey only see herself in the weird hall of mirrors/reflecting thing?
Could it be that Rey only sees herself because she has no parents and is a Force baby created to balance out Kylo Ren?
LucasFilm
How long had Luke not talked to Yoda?
And did Yoda ever try to get Luke to continue training new Jedi after Kylo killed his students?
LucasFilm
Did DJ survive after Snoke’s ship, The Supremacy, was destroyed by Vice Admiral Holdo?
And if he did survive will we see him again in a future movie?
LucasFilm
Clearly Leia uses Jedi powers to survive the attack on the Raddus, but how does she know how to use the Force in that way?
Did Luke teach her how to harness the power of the Force? Did she have some sort of training post-Return of the Jedi?
LucasFilm
And after she used the Force to get back into the ship nobody onboard seemed surprised. Had she used the Force in that way before?
Obviously, they know she is Force-sensitive. (Side note: Also, we’re thinking that maybe there were plans to have this question answered in the next film.)
LucasFilm
Where is Luke’s green lightsaber (that he constructed after Empire)?
Did he get rid of it after almost killing Kylo or is it hidden away somewhere? Did he get rid of it in a bid to truly walk away from being a Jedi?
LucasFilm
And why, when he Force-projected himself, did he choose to be seen with his blue lightsaber (which at that point was broken anyway by Rey and Kylo)?
Did he want to taunt Kylo by showing him Anakin’s lightsaber?
LucasFilm
Where the hell are the Knights of Ren?
We haven’t heard anything about them being killed off? Also, like Snoke, we got no more backstory about them. Are they waiting for Snoke and Kylo to call them back?
LucasFilm
Is Finn over Rey and into Rose now?
The two seem to have great chemistry.
LucasFilm
Why was Vice Admiral Holdo’s escape plan kept secret from almost everyone? Wouldn’t it have been easier to just let Poe know the plan?
She could’ve told them when the mutiny was happening.
LucasFilm
What is this “camera” that Maz is using that tracks/follows her as she’s running around dealing with Union disputes while talking to Poe/Finn/Rose?
Also, why did she not just tell them the name of the code-breaker? Clearly she knew him (since she implied they had sex).
LucasFilm
Is Ben Solo/Kylo Ren really savable at this point? Or does he have to die?
Now that he is Supreme Leader, is he totally evil?
LucasFilm
I think it is safe to assume that Luke will be a Force ghost, obviously Rey will see him. But will he also appear to Ben/Kylo as he said he would?
And will Rey be able to see Yoda, since she heard him and Obi-Wan’s voices before in The Force Awakens?
LucasFilm
Will Rey start training a new generation of Jedi between this film and the next?
Clearly it’s implied in the movie that there are lots of Force-sensitive kids/people in the universe.
LucasFilm
And finally, will the next movie, Episode IX, take place several years later?
The movie did leave off with the Resistance being all but destroyed. So it would take several years for the Resistance to rebuild and be able take on the First Order. Also, that could be a way to address Carrie Fisher’s death.
