| Topic | How will you feel if Rey surpasses Luke in The Last Jedi? |
| Kenri 06/15/17 12:52:46 PM #16: | Luke never impressed me much in the OT. Luke isn't a fighter in his first movie (which is the point), skips out on training to save his friends in the second (which is the point), and outright loses his big climactic fight in the third, only winning by appealing to Vader's goodness (...which is the point). The idea of the super badass Jedi Luke is something invented by other Star Wars properties -- it was never really in the three films. Rey had been fighting for longer than Luke before she even touched a lightsaber. That's why she could beat people's asses with a staff, whereas Luke had to be saved from a bar fight. Whether she surpasses Luke in legend status is whatever (I don't really expect it), but she's pretty much already stronger than Luke was in ESB and I'd be surprised if she didn't crush his RotJ peak. --- Congrats to BKSheikah, who knows more about years than anyone else. ...
