How did they go out of their way?

Didn't the studio conjugate the title for them which is why they were able to draw their conclusions?

This has nothing to do with the film makers or disney. This is hype culture media over thinking things that are not even an issue if you think about it.

1) Star wars is written in English and other languages are not a 1st consideration
2) Jedi is PLURAL is english. I don't need to know about conjugation of foreign languages to understand this. Never do the films say "jedis" no it's just "jedi." How are people even debating the whole plural in other languages thing?
>>
>>79618549
but you need the foreign languages to know if jedi is used as plural or singular in englisch.

Let's take the german title. It's "Die letzten Jedi" which means it's used in plural. If it was "Der letzte Jedi" it'd be singular (male) and if it was "die letzte Jedi) it'd be singular (female).

So obviously it's referring to multiple last jedi. Does that matter? No. But I'm sure there are people to whom this is interesting.
>>
>>79618549
The point is, they´re not making a separate movie for different languages so having an official title that clearly refers to multiple Jedi in one language means the ambiguous English title must also be referring to multiple Jedi. This is tied directly to the whole premise of the film, as having a movie about 1 Jedi would be different as a movie about more than one. Do you think ´The Empire Strikes Back´ would be the same movie as ´The Empires Strike Back´? Discussion about whether it´s plural or singular is as valid as any other aspect of the movie.
>>

this is not some trivial/insignificant point, dumbass

>>
>>79618603
Well yes, I understand your German example. However people are taking this way too far. They are going outside the major languages and you have all these random languages entering the debate. It really just come down to the fact that English is the language of Star Wars. I wouldn't analyze a German film's title based on it's English translation, I would look at the direct German translation. You see what I mean? I know it's going to be a world wild release, but other languages should not matter. If the the studios translate it to singular in some language that shouldn't mean anything because it could just be a bad translation.

It doesn't matter if it's plural or not
We already know there are two jedi, Luke and Rey, the title being plural has no bearing on whether either or both of them die.
It could be some other retarded twist and there ends up with no jedi or 500 jedi at the end.

>>
>>79622861
No shit it's meant to be an ambiguous, likely dumb meaning you dumb nigger. The point is people have down syndrome reading into it with other langues that do not matter when it's an English language film.

There already are two films with ambiguous meanings -
Return of the Jedi
The Phantom Menace

We already know there are three Jedi in the film - Luke (the current Jedi), Rey (the future Jedi), and Kylo (the fallen Jedi). People are literally fucking retarded if they think it literally just means one person.
>>
>>79623059
>reading into it with other langues
They're not "reading into it", they're just reading a title of a movie in their language that says there are multiple jedi. There's no ambiguity for them.
>>
>speaking a barbaric language with no difference whatsoever between singular/plural and male/female nouns
>>
>>79623028
No TFA says he's the last jedi in the opening crawl. Snoke says he's the last jedi to Kylo. Yoda tells Luke he will be the last jedi in Return of the Jedi. It's been a term for Luke since 1983. Obviously that doesn't mean it will mean just luke, but he, at the time, is the current last Jedi at this point in time.
>>
>>79623059
the point is the translation clears up the "ambiguity".

>last movie ends with Rey meeting with Luke

Don't see anything autistic about it, it's actually a very basic question that arises after hearing the title and the answer wasn't hard to come by. You should look into what autists actually do like painting entire city landscapes with dots.

Learning languages are shit tear waste of time unless there is a big point in knowing that language like some kind of special information only in that language but that is almost never the case because almost everything is in english and visual novels have shit writing anyways.Of course if you are in the country with native speakers and are forcing yourself to be a little more than a monkey with people around you until you will learn your shit it's engaging and fruitful but otherwise go fuck yourself.

In actuality, it's only referring to Luke becoming a Jedi and taking on Vader, but the translator (and little me, for that matter) took it as the birth of the new Jedi order. The way I found out was through the Shakespeare parody:
>The Jedi doth return
>>
>>79615851

Or at least stop with the ducking Jedi and lightsaber shit
