I'm not certain this film should be made, but if it's going to happen hopefully it can include Mark Hamill and we can get closure on what Luke tried and how Rey can learn from it.
Luke earned the chance to try and rebuild the Jedi, it's only fair that he at least gets a chance to redeem his failure.
What failure?
His death was a bit of a failure IMO, he used the force so hard he died lol
He astral projected himself from god knows how many light years away, a feat of the force I imagine would be incredibly taxing for even a young prime Anakin Skywalker, having not used the force regularly for only he knows how long because he cut himself off from it.
The Last Jedi has its problems, but Luke's manner of death is one of the few things that's fine with regards to Luke IMO.
But what did he accomplish? He was basically a distraction, why didn't he ACTUALLY go there. He died a loser hermit who was too afraid to actually join the battle. Made no fuckin sense to have him "sacrifice" himself for basically no reason.
