Kylo Ren swore to finish what Anakin started, and Anakin did destroy the big bad in the end, so Kylo will redeem himself and kill the big bad in the end.
It almost like they do a watered down "Dark Empire" the emperator is "immortal" becuse his "soul" can occupy a clone of himself. Luke bow down to the emperator and say somthing like my faters destiny are my own (not it can be interpreted in two different ways) the emperator teach Luke about the dark side and hope to turn him, and Luke lets himself get turned to lern the knowledge about the dark side to gain the abitilty to permanent destory the emperator.
I really fucking hope not. Thats just one cliche to far, even for SW.
I wana see Kylo go Light side and Rey go Dark.
Still too much unexplained between 6-7 to make a prediction. Did Kylo know that Anakin brought balance to the force? Why again did he even turn in the first place? Is he upset with his father or Luke?

He accomplished no more than Vader comparing Ep 4-7. And what did Maul accomplish in the movie? Killing an old man.
The wise wolf who's pride is her wisdom isn't so sharp as drunk.
If they do redeem him somehow, I'd prefer they do it in the next one as opposed to the third film (Episode IX) to avoid yet more comparisons with the OT. That bothered me with TFA, and I bet the next Ep is essentially The First Order Strikes Back.
I also want Kylo Ren to kill himself and severely damage the First Order, and then the heroes deliver the killing blow to Snoke.
Isn't it ironic how education is important, yet people forget all about it when they visit the internet?
The best way to answer your question atm is to kidnap and blackmail the director and writer, Rian Johnson into telling you inorder to spare his life. Done.
Let him become his own twisted villain rather than act out as a B-grade Vader with the same story arch.
A soldier will fight long and hard for a bit of colored ribbon.
No, not a chance.
He killed the most popular character in Star Wars, he is such a wimp he makes Anakin look like a badass (BOTH anakins!!), he's just a total loser that should cry himself to sleep then die in it lol.
Yes. He is going to save Rey from Snoke, lift up Snoke and throw him down a chasm while getting hit with force lightning. This will kill him and Rey will set him on a funeral pyre in some forest.
I hope not. What I'd like to see is Rey beats him barely in a fight. She's badly wounded, and he's mortally wounded and will die without medical attention. She intends to save him and take him back to the Republic to be tried for war crimes, and asks Chewbacca to call for a medevac of some sort. Instead, Chewie looks at her briefly, walks over to Kylo, and breaks his neck.
Everything falls quiet for a second, then Chewie begins repeatedly stomping on the skull of his corpse while roaring constantly at the top of his lungs. He then leaves Rey the Falcon, takes a shuttle or some other small ship, and is never heard from again.
You mean you expect Hollywood to give us a great redemption arc? I don't expect it.
Though it would be nice if...
Rey gets corrupted and Kylo veers to the light. Then he becomes the hero, but still struggles with the pain he caused and remains In a grey area in the eyes of the rebels. So he will wind up saving the day, possibly trying to keep Reys legacy from being tarnished , and basically go dark knight
That would be cool and refreshing. But I don't expect that.
What will happen is he will get a power boost, Rey will beat him good. And there may be a little "you're still good " but he will die at the end. The best we can hope for is he goes out like Vader.
On death star 4.0 of course.
