How many Jedi survived Order 66, and is that number too high or low in your opinion?

Watching the OG trilogy, it definitely comes across as the Jedi being entirely wiped out, to the point where they're myths. Based on that, I used to be annoyed with the number of Jedi who apparently survived Order 66, because I felt it diminished Luke's specialness, and I couldn't work out how the wider Galaxy would have entirely forgotten about the Jedi, because right before Luke makes his appearance on the galactic scale you have multiple Jedi still doing Jedi things.But thinking about it now, the Galaxy is a big place and the Order had something like more than a thousand Knights, with even more younglings and Padawans. It makes a lot of sense for a number of them to have slipped through the cracks. via /r/StarWars https://ift.tt/32DZ7U9
