again, there is 0 reason why that couldn't have been done in the flesh
luke should have been cut down by kylo in person
Luke made a point that there's this huge legend about him out there, but his life wasn't nearly as good as the legends would have you say. Him appearing as an untouchable holographic projection adds to how legendary he is.
that's a gay reason
If Kylo *had* killed him, it would've
A) sent Kylo further to the dark
B) Made Luke a mere mortal
Luke *was* a mere mortal
instead, Kylo can't kill the past he wants to, and Luke's legend is made more legendary.
Luke is, but his legend isn't.
It's that whole hope thing the movie tlaked about near the end.
that's all he wanted to be
he was a Jedi, but he wasn't this invincible thing
Also, we're totes gonna have force ghost luke later
he never taught her lesson 3
Luke wasn't after fame and glory.
Why would he care about being a legend?
right, because the legend of Obi-Wan was diminished when he *dueled the most evil man in the galaxy on board of the most destructive superweapon in history to save a farmboy*
oh wait, it wasn't
The galaxy may not even know much of Obi-Wan anymore
Luke's legend wouldn't have suffered from him facing kylo mano el mano
most would presume he died during order 66
and after that a shitload of jedi stories got purged
luke didn't teach rey shit
fuck tlj nothing happens
Nothing happens?
yes
the resistence gets reduced to a handful of people, Snoke gets chopped in half, Kylo becomes supereme leader
Luke dies, Rey learns her parents were nobodies and she doesn't have to be someone special's kid to be special
the resistence and the first order are in the exact same position they were in at the beggining of the movie
Finn learns that there are peaople dealing weapons to boths ides
luke contributes nothing so his death doesn't matter
the exat position???
there's a total change of leadership@
finn has no character arc
a fuckload of people died on both sides!
yes, the exact postion
the first order is still impossibly massive
the resistance is still impossibly small
Rey can probably lift an entire planet with the Force by now.
leadership changes happen all the fucking time
But that's a change
you said nothing changes
