| Topic | People say TLJ was a betrayal of Luke's character |
| RchHomieQuanChi 05/30/18 11:36:13 AM #45: | bloodydeath0 posted... I don't really see Luke as ever being the chosen one. In the og trilogy, he was always kinda a normal farmer dude who learned the force just well enough to confront his father and turn him back. And to expand on this, also keep in mind that Luke doesn't beat Vader and the Emperor by using his L337 force abilities he learned over 3 movies to blast them out of the Death Star; he successfully convinces his father to come back to the light side and turn against the Emperor. You know how odd of a conclusion that must have been in the 80s, where most action/sci-fi movies simply involved the hero just straight up killing the bad guy in a display of ultra-manliness? But Star Wars was always more subtle than that and that isn't consistent with Luke's character. --- I have nothing else to say ... Copied to Clipboard! |
