LAST WARNING, lets make this the SPOILER thread!
O.k., the biggie: Did Luke have to "die"? My thoughts are yes! He had obviously never gotten over losing Ben to the dark side so went into voluntary exile so as to never be tempted to use the force again. If he had survived (Loved the flicking the dirt off his shoulders scene by the way) he would be a single individual in the fight but with his death he is a legend that will inspire followers for episodes to come. Just look at the kids in the final scene playing "luke skywalker" with their home grown action figures and I'm sure you picked up on the one kidding summoning the broom to him as he walked outside to hold it in a light saber like fashion!
