    If Luke doesn't retake the Jedi Temple what do you think will happen to it? Will it just become an abandoned building? Will it become a war memorial? Will someone else inhabit it?

    Doesn't really need to be addressed in the movie outside a sentence or two, if Luke relocates the Jedi base to some other planet. Which kind of makes sense.
    Although, I have to admit, it would be rather interesting to see the OT characters in such a very obviously PT setting. Would really make a nice connection.

    I think we might see Luke visit it in the ST, but I do not think the Jedi will ever return to it during the ST.

    He said much of the same in his recent Forcecast interview - there's so much information about the Jedi stored throughout the Temple, that it would have been an invaluable resource to someone like the Inquisitor to use as a base for hunting them down. No doubt that's where his work was based out of.

    As for what then happens to it in the ST, I can imagine that Luke possibly spent a significant amount of time there in between ROTJ and Episode VII to learn more about the Jedi's history (and also to learn as much as possible about his father). I don't think it needs more than a cursory mention in Episode VII since Luke would likely have gathered what he needed/wanted to gather from there by the time of the film. If he's starting a new Jedi Order, I'd like to see it based somewhere else. But also wouldn't hate the idea of Luke taking it back.

    I don't think there will be any "jedi order" or at least what it was like in the PT.
    Its quite possible that during the 30 years after ROTJ, Luke tried to establish a new jedi order - only to have it fail because the public didn't want Jedi to be the peace keeping policemen they once were - as I am sure the truth of what happened to Anakin Skywalker became known.

    I think the only force users we will have in the ST are Luke, Leia, and their offspring.

    And then maybe some dark force users.

    I see Luke being an outcast within the new republic - which may suggest him becoming an Obi-Wan-like hermit on Tatooine. This may cause conflict for Leia and her political post in the new regime.

    The ST occurs at a period of time where it is an antique. I think Indiana Jones needs to investigate. :p

    The temple is still standing on the ROTJ blu-ray, but I'm wondering if the Jedi Archives are still intact. Surely destroying those would be a priority for Vader and the Emperor during the purge.

    I agree that seeing ST/OT characters in PT locations would be welcome... but other than that I can't see Luke and other Jedi sat around on the Jedi Council in the same chamber... although my fanboy side would like to see that... if only for a minute.

    Why purge it? At least until its been reviewed. The data in there could reveal jedi hidding spots/personal connections, serve as bait, mysteries of the force, hidden Sith plundered artifacts, blackmail on politicians or others, etc...

    Purging the data outside the temple is one thing since it could fall into enemy hands but the data inside is more or less contained and may proove useful one day. I get the idea of hiding the Jedi teachings (though purging is a step too far imho since the Emperor thought his posistion secure) but that's only a fraction of the data there.

    The Temple is still standing at the end of RotJ. It's not a stretch to say it is highly possible that, if it is not to be a prominent location, it will at least appear at some point in the ST.

    I'd imagine keeping the archives would be a priority, as they could provide the Empire with information on any Jedi left in the galaxy. Why destroy a database of background information on the people you're trying to track down? Would be like the FBI destroying its records of the people on its Most Wanted list.

    i could imagine people would revere the jedi temple like The USA does the WTCs. something that was once a symbol but now just causes pain.

    The Jedi Temple has been bought by an Intergalactic conglomerate and rebranded the Intergalactic House of Padawan Pancakes.

    I think it'd be cool to see it briefly visited in the ST as neglected, abandoned, and defaced much like the Mesoamerican temples after the Spanish conquests. Post apocalyptic style, like "After Earth" or "Walking Dead." After the fall of the Empire, I think there'd be a good chance of mass rioting & looting on Coruscant.

    I'd definitely like to revisit the Temple.

    I'd be especially interested in seeing Luke (if not Luke, Leia and any kids either Skywalker may have, too) visiting the Council chambers. It could be eerie and dark, solemn and respectful or even inspirational and joyous for our heroes to visit ground zero of Jedi history.

    Wouldn't it be good to have the Jedi Temple restored off screen whilst other events of Episode VII are happening and at the end of the film, mirroring ANH's grand celebration, the new heroes are awarded some sort of medal in the now fully restored temple? Well thats what i wrote in a fanfic Episode VII in 2005 [face_laugh]
