Luke can't be corporeal in the next film.
No more than Obi-Wan or Yoda could be in Jedi.
If a ****ing Jedi Master is running around there's no reason for Rey to do anything. She barely had a dramatic hand in this movie's climax as it was.
I actually wished that Leia had died instead of Admiral Holdo, because it would have been the IDEAL death for her, and cleared a path for Poe to do more in IX.

If Leia can preserve herself from death in the vacuum of space and propel herself back into the bridge of the ship, why can't she move some rocks that are in her way?

So the protagonist actually has something to do. C'mon.
I'm actually conflicted about whether or not killing Snoke was the right thing to do (he's an interesting character, but I think his backstory is more interesting than anything he had left to do in this story), but if you don't A) how does that scene advance forward otherwise and B) how does Kylo really get set up as a real villain.
Now he is. It served it's purpose.
Killing Snoke removes any possibility of IX being a ripoff of Jedi, at the very least, and with Jar Jar Abrams lurking that's a very good thing.
We're set up now for a Kylo/Rey Hux/Poe showdown in IX and it's going to be fun.
