Will Episode 8 be a remake of The Empire Strikes Back?
I have a feeling they will follow the same recipe for this movie as well. Its basically going to be 3 remakes of the originals.

The video below was supposedly posted to Reddit (Via CBR) by a member of the Star Wars Celebration staff. As you can see, if seems to reveal that the title of Rian Johnson's follow-up to J.J. Abrams' The Force Awakens is going to be:
Star Wars: Fall Of The Resistance.

I doubt it is.
shareEspecially because the latest rumors say:
Rey is captured by Snoke/Kylo.
Last scene is reminiscent of last scene in ESB - Luke, Finn and 3PO are looking towards unknown space/landscape.
Mark, John and Anthony filmed that scene.
We shall see.
Please stop.
I hope not, but the ending of The Force Awakens seems to have set this up to be a remake of The Empire Strikes Back with Luke assuming Yoda's former role and Rey continuing to fill Luke's shoes.
"Have to say, Jimmy - you turned into a real impressive fighter. If I was ol' Mengsk, I'd be runnin' scared from you, too."
"You really mean that, Tychus?"
"Nah. I was just kiddin'."

It won't be. JJ Abrams is known for pretty much remaking things...especially Star Wars...whereas Rian Johnson is a pretty creative mind.
shareIn part, yes. Rey\Luke already found Yoda\Luke. So they are a bit ahead of episode 4 at this point.
This is Kennedy's doing, though. She is a frothing feminist and she is no doubt remaking the old SW movies because they are "sexist" and not diverse enough.

great white buffalo
shareI really doubt it. The movies listed as inspiration did not scream ESB clone to me.
shareWalker attack scene near the beginning, Luke/Yoda-Rey/Luke training scene in the middle, Rey/Kylo battle in last third?
sharePart 1: girl from sand planet leaves to fight the first order and blow up a "death star"
Part 2: first order strikes back at the resistance and sends them into hiding.
Part 3: the resistance returns to defeat the first order and emperor, all is well again...
