Did you see the part where Leia floated back onto the ship??

If Luke had done that, you would be saying it was “bad arse”.

There are things about this movie that are not great, but it doesn’t warrant the amount of hate it’s gotten.

Everyone bitches about how Luke was portrayed. Except he’s acting pretty much exactly how Yoda was acting when he first went to him for training. He had hidden himself and n a remote planet and no longer wanted anything to do with the force or Jedi.

People also missed a key moment. Remember when Yoda was training Luke and Luke said “I’m not afraid” and Yoda responds with “you will be”? What if THIS is what Yoda was referring to? Luke is now afraid of the force because he saw the power and the darkness inside Kylo. I don’t recall any other time where Luke was “afraid”. Perhaps Yoda (known for being able to see events in the future) saw this moment in time for Luke.
