No source material though. Not like the idea of building a New Jedi Academy/Order has ever been thought of. Luke training young Jedi should’ve been one of the opening scenes of Episode 7. I know George wanted him on an island to meditate on the Force so you could’ve had one of his main students come to get him.

At the start of TLJ when Rey was on the island I was almost hopeful they were going to introduce the Gray Jedi, and Luke was disillusioned with the Jedi but was about to tell her that there's a third path...
But no they had to "subvert our expectations" by continuing to ignore as much EU canon as possible.
Yea that was the last chance for a good Luke. I know Abrams had Luke levitating two large boulders but Rian took it out. Also I’m the early drafts Luke was in it more prominently but then he was removed. I still have my stacks of EU books at least.
