I think it's an obvious choice. The Skywalker family tree seems to the focal point in all of the Star Wars story arcs. And Luke seems to be the one most vulnerable to fall. He made amends with his father just before he died and with the Empire fractured and seemingly destroyed, peace time offers a number of emotional traps for Luke to try and find resolve with that father/son bonding which could make him susceptible to the dark side. And remember, Vader always said it was his destiny. Anakin if you recall was a hero before he fell as well. I guess they could always skip a generation and offer it to Luke's son, but I think the story registers better if Luke takes the fall. He is on the receiving end with the mixed messages and emotional strive from watching his father die. I think his need to rationalize that experience will make the fall much more dramatic than one with a character we have no attachment to. Plus Mark Hamill is just as legendary playing a villain in his career. Why not allow him to fulfill that arc in this storyline instead of becoming the next Obi Wan stereotype? I think it would be incredible.

No, no and no. I think Luke has always been the hero and should remain the hero.
Luke has always said," "I will Never join you"(speaking to Darth) and "I will Never turn to the dark side".
Vader does say, " It is your destiny" but he is referring to Luke being able to destroy the Emperor and Vader trying to convince him to "join me".
Vader says, " Luke you can destroy the Emperor, he has foreseen this". "It is your destiny". "Join me and together we can rule the galaxy as father and son".
I could see Luke's son being turned to the dark side and following in his grandfather's footsteps and maybe,
even honoring his grandfather by adopting his look or something very similar.
IF that was to happen, i also think Luke would be the one having to kill his son in the end and maybe both dying.
It's hard to say whats going to happen but it will be interesting to see what directions they take in this movie.Comment

I don't think they will have Luke turn, it's way to obvious and also a betrayal of the character in the original trilogy. I think it will either be Luke's kid or Leia'sComment

Here's another theory I came up with. Look at the leaked artwork, the shape of the mask and the posture. My theory is the Sith Inquisitor IS Luke, who was driven slightly mad by everything he had to endure in a short span of time. Who else would be so obsessed with Vader 30 years later? This trilogy might be about his redemption.I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.
If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.Comment

I think nobody will turn to the Dark Side, and episode 7 will be all about Luke taking his kids camping.
It will be called National Lampoon's Dagobah Vacation, with lots of laughs and family fun.
Be sure to catch the bit where Luke's barbeque gets grabbed by a swamp thing, and Luke's son accidentally backs the landspeeder into the bog....

The family Skywalker down deep are basically trash bums (see your neighbors and mine)
They're good when it suits their current interest but they'll turn in a dime if they can get something out of it.
Luke on the other hand also has some Royal blood mixed in.
Luke will probably contemplate his goodness over the next three movies with adventures taking him into the darkside and finally back into the light.
In the end I have faith the entire Star Wars saga is about Luke's salvation and redemption -- not Vadars.
Coming from somebody that saw Star Wars on opening day ---Luke's alway's been the star of Star WarsComment

More possible leaked photos from Star Wars episode 7 showing the big three, Luke, Leia and Han. Leia looks pretty
good or maybe that's her daughter. Han and Luke looking a little rough. Rumours are they might be putting the band
back together too.

Speculation I've heard is that Luke has been MIA for roughly a decade, either in self exile or captured. My guess is that the new villain is behind Luke's disappearance.Comment
