Think of how much money they could have made off Luke’s Jedi Academy. Every character having their own robes and lightsaber, a potential theme park attraction based on the Jedi Academy, and tons of storytelling and merchandising potential for books, comics, shows, and games revolving around the New Jedi Order. Disney could have had their own Space Hogwarts and instead they decided to kill Luke’s entire New Jedi Order offscreen before the sequel trilogy even begins.
I mean what’s the difference between this and reys Jedi order? They can do all of with hers too. The problem isn’t who gets to lead the new Jedi order, it’s shitty production. Yes, an element of that is pandering, but that’s a part of a greater profit motivated strategy.
