You have to understand Mark Hamill's dilemma
After Jedi he couldn't get any fucking roles or casted in any other film, because no directors could see him as the roles he applied for, he was just "luke Skywalker" to them
This is a curse alot of new actors face when young and playing iconic roles
Sure he got a bit in the Guyver love action(just a bit) and village of the damned(as a preacher) and that was it, he couldn't market himself for more roles so he spent most of his life so poor he was stealing cigarette butts out of Public ashtrays(in case you aren't a smoker, that means you don't even have five bucks to your name)
Other than the occasional movie con appearance which barely made him enough to pay his monthly electric bill he's been on the verge of homelessness for half his life post 30, which can break your spirit and force you into a mercenary mindset due to insufficient security about ones future.

He had no clout or pull to protect his character, if he wanted that check or to die with at least enough money for some McDonald's and a carton of cigarettes to his name then he had to do what they tell him post what they tell him and shut the fuck up.

Too old and too poor to fight the woke hordes that took over everything once Lucas sold out.

They will do the same to Cavill if they get a chance to as well anons
They have changed the deal for old, aging out actors, pray they do not change it further..

Luke Skywalker would never drink colourful milk from an alien creature like some sort of farm boy. This merits years of whining.
>>
>>217172059
subversion my ass, it was a straight spit in the face of kids that grew up with Luke as a hero (aka, yes, white males)
you can see it best in the shitty way when Chewie rips through his door, Luke says "where's Han", and this faggot wipes to some other scene nobody wants to see at all or cares about
everyone wants to see Luke's reaction to finding out Han is dead, and this faggot wipes away
and then he kills Luke off via "exhaustion" after he does this force projection trick Snoke already did twice in the same movie, without breaking a sweat, with two other people at once, once real enough to transfer rain or something
just completely makes Luke look like this huge bitch all around
then spends months on twatter replying to all criticism with MAH DEEEEEEEEK

I'm glad his career has sucked and been aimed at his stereotypes of who was complaining since then

I liked the scenes with Luke and his death, though not my ideal, didn't offend me.

It was the casino planet shit that really ruined this film for me. A soulless by-the-numbers episode with the two worst characters and more of those bad creature designs.
>>
don't send Rey straight there with Chewie, have Chewie drop her off and fuck off to do something else, Han doesn't get mentioned until later (somehow, maybe have Rey not explain how she found him and be cagey to have some tiny bit of fucking character depth)
Chewie comes back for her, Luke finds out Han was killed by Kylo, that spurs him to go with them
this shit isn't hard Rian made every choice intentionally, he did not HAVE to do anything he did
>>
>>217172902
>movie starts with a your mom joke
even at his worst Lucas was never THIS satirical, and using "w-well bad Lucas did this so I can do it worse" is such a bullshit excuse, they should have been going away from the bad-Lucas tier of shit and towards the far superior more "mature" kind of tone Rogue One had
at the very least don't write it BAD and then go "oh well Lucas wrote this part really bad so why are you complaining?"
>>
>>217172888
It can be exactly the same just without him being a weak angry man who's given up on life. Instead make him someone who's come to believe that any time force users have tried to effect change on the galactic stage it's always led to more bloodshed in a relentless cycle, so the best thing he can do as the last Jedi who destroyed the last of the Sith is to stay where out of it. Have him not know his nephew is a Sith until Rey tells him, and then he grimly undertakes to put his Jedi cloaks back on, having been forced to confront the fact that the crushing wheel of war can only ever be steered, not stopped.
>>
>>217173170
>Have him not know his nephew is a Sith until Rey tells him
honestly, fair credit, the most interesting things rian did was completely destroy JJ's blacked fantasy randomly, and the idea that Luke tried to kill Kylo to stop another Vader, though that latter was executed and written horribly then dropped and not explored any further
straight fucking stolen in spirit weirdly from Han's son killing Luke's wife in the EU, and Luke having to deal with that

The fart jokes in episode 1 are pretty bad, that said he did isolate farts to certain characters. You never have darth maul farted at. "Your mom" isn't all it was. It was also a "prank call" It could have been a character moment between Poe and Hux. Maybe a brief chance at negotiating and terms..... nah. Why explore these characters? Hux is a why bitch and Poe is a hot head, we don't need anything else.

I also, I had heard last jedi was bad when I went to see it. I wasn't sure in what way. I brought a flask full of booze. At the your mom joke I poured that fucker into my coke.

Over and over the movies tells you not to trust it and just laugh. There will be no sincere moments and everything is a fake out. It's like when an actor tries to stand up comedy. They have no clue how to do it and eventually just screaming the N word at people.

This actually isn't hard. The threat of the First Order didn't become dire until very recently and Luke could have been doing some research for special knowledge or relics to combat Snoke.

You could have a scene where Chewie has prepared some fish meal for himself and the critters bother him for some till he roars - then he relents and gives them a bit. Comedy and no murder of sentients needed.

>Of course he's ok with killing Luke Skywalker in the foulest way possible.
I hate Hamill as a person, but they straight lied to him throughout the entire process
he said he didn't want to do it if Luke wasn't going to be respected, because he spoke to fans so much, and got roped into the contracts under false pretenses
they didn't even tell him they were killing off Luke until the press tour, he never knowingly filmed Luke's death
in the BTS you can see Rian straight kissing his ass and lying to his face, to get him to cooperate, telling him the movie title meant the movie was all about Luke
>>
>>217173677
>This actually isn't hard. The threat of the First Order didn't become dire until very recently and Luke could have been doing some research for special knowledge or relics to combat Snoke.
That doesn't answer it. He peaces out, severs all ties, and doesn't answer his calls.
>>
>they didn't even tell him they were killing off Luke until the press tour, he never knowingly filmed Luke's death
and the worst bit of all is Carrie died a year before TLJ came out, and they had an entire year to decide to remove that one brief edit of Luke dying, and they still left it in there, knowing they had fucking nothing for their original plans for it to all revolve around Carrie with her dead
and Kennedy said like immediately they weren't going to CGI revive her, and she had filmed nothing for the next one
utterly brain dead

## Mark Hamill's Surprise at Luke's Fate

Mark Hamill indeed revealed that he was unaware of Luke Skywalker's fate during the filming of *The Last Jedi*. This surprising revelation came out during various interviews as part of the film's press tour.

### Details of the Revelation

- **Filming Without Knowledge**: Hamill mentioned that he did not learn about Luke's death until the press tour, which highlighted a significant disconnect in communication between the filmmakers and the actors. This led to an unexpected surprise for him when discussing the film.

- **Reactions During the Tour**: His initial reactions during the press tour reflected genuine shock, as he expressed difficulty reconciling the character's legacy with such a significant and abrupt end. He noted that he would have approached the role differently had he known the character's ultimate fate.

### Insights into Character Development

- **Unexpected Creative Choices**: Hamill's comment reveals how filmmakers sometimes make bold creative choices that actors might not fully grasp during the production phase. This adds a layer of unpredictability to a beloved franchise.

- **Engagement with Fans**: His transparency about his surprise resonated with fans, showing that even the actors are invested in their characters and care deeply about their narratives.

In summary, Mark Hamill’s shocking discovery about Luke's fate during the movie's press tour has contributed to discussions surrounding character development and actor-director dynamics in major films. His candid reflections have left a lasting impact among fans and audiences alike.

OK but I get to delete the most of the sequel plot
>Sequel trilogy is about Luke's initial success, failure and seclusion, then redemption in the end through Ben Solo
>First film starts at the peak of Luke's academy, happy start. The new generation will be Ben Solo, a promising Jedi instructor, a non force-sensitive that spent time around the academy, maybe a force-sensitive Stormtrooper dropout to actually give that storyline a chance. There are still Imperial Remnants like the EU. Having only experienced the good times, Ben Solo grows disillusioned with the Jedi way and peace in the galaxy. Out of fear of a repeat, Ben is kept in the dark about his lineage; Luke naively thinks ignorance will protect his nephew. Over time, Ben learns of the force "in all its aspects" and feels lied to, because he was. Ben adopts his Sith persona and takes over the Imperial remnant to claim the mantle of his legendary grandfather. He crusades against Luke's academy, drives Luke into hiding. Luke drops the training responsibilities on Leia, and Han reluctantly ferries him to his hiding place.
>Second film starts a few years later. Luke, again naively, tries the Yoda method of self preservation. Unknown backwater planet. Shame of his failures kept him secluded and cut off from the galaxy. He stays connected to the force, yet still loses hope of making a difference. His promising former instructor finds him and convinces him to not lose hope, just like he did years ago with someone else in his family.
>Third film starts with Ben's perspective in his new Empire. It's not what he wanted and again grows disillusioned. He dreamt of gaining all the power that Anakin did, but never what he'd do once he got it. He's taken on his Rule of Two apprentice. His noticeable lack of faith causes some infighting and vying for the throne. He will need to choose his battle: beat his own apprentice who will inevitably come for him, or Luke and company, who will inevitably come for him.

He was not poor after Star Wars, him--along with the rest of the cast--made fucking MINT off of residuals from the movies. He also did a string of movies from 89 to 93, did some tvand then became the voice actor for Joker in virtually everything from the 90s onward. He never stopped working. and consistently booked roles.

Its crazy how fucking retarded and wrong you are when a single google search would show you the truth. Its like you want to be retarded.
>>
>>217172059
the movie is still dogshit, but this was a direct callback to him throwing away the lightsaber in Return of the Jedi, possibly the only moment in the entire movie that made any sense and it still triggered the masses, I wish movies were made illegal at this point

>Save Luke's death for the final film, since he's the most important of the three.
Indeed they really didn't need to kill him after a high-effort technique. He's a master, so it doesn't make sense to sacrifice one's life for a galaxy-wide mind trick. Straining like we saw, sure, but not death. Super gay. I don't know how you gracefully kill Luke Skywalker, but everybody agrees that wasn't it.
>>
>>217173743
that's not exploring the character. You can make him pathetic without making poe stupid. Anyone can be the butt of a joke and his reaction to is just bad comedy and not an expansion of the character.
>>
>>217174442
Yeah I know he did voice work, games, and B movies. That's the point. He clearly wasn't that much opposed to ruining the character. The script isn't salutary even if he didn't know they were going to kill him off. He could've just walked.
>>
>>217174459
>>Carrie dies. Cut her Merry Poppins flying in space scene
all of my available this, it was embarrassingly bad and an incredibly cheap subversion of expectations since literally fucking everyone expected her to die there since she was dead

Colin Trevorrow left episode 9 over Leia's survival and Luke's death. Disney did not have Trevorrow's back. Johnson did request JJ change episode 7, originally BB-8 went with Rey and Chewie. Johnson ask it be R2. JJ olieged. Trevorrow asked, in the wake of Fisher's death, to kill Leia and not Luke. Johnson told Trevorrow to fuck off. It's a shitty tragedy, but even still, that aside, had she lived, killing Luke at all was dumb, but like that? Rian Johnson reminds me of Chevy Chase or TJ Miller. Capable talent, but full of ego.
>>
>>217172470
The only role I remember him in was Jay and Silent Bob Jerk Back.
Hamill played a villain character in a mock up studio rampage ala Peewees Big Adventure.

I'm sorry mate
the EU wasn't perfect by any means but it ended up in this place where what they did with Kylo and Rey is like this fucking crayon outline tracing of where the EU went with Jacen & Jaina
far superior to what Yidsney did for all its flaws
the last couple EU series are worth reading at least through Jacen's arc, main worst bit about them is they're like +/-50% side character filler, but that was all the EU really
these good trilogies stretched out and padded to shit into these 9 book series

Im not going to say Rian Johnson is an idiot and doesn't know what he is doing. Looper is his film, it's not really for me, but it's fine. Last Jedi its clear, dude doesn't get star wars. He made a better spaceballs movie.
>>
>>217175761
honestly? just do these >>217172096
what the whole series was "about" changed so many times over the years, it was never really this whole big long story about Anakin until the period between ROTJ and TPM where Lucas was getting ego blowjobs every day by the LF/LA kids he was hiring
then it became this whole other thing
just watch the OT and then whatever else you feel like, but I'd skip everything yidsney outright, except maybe rogue one
solo wasn't terrible either
>>
>>217172186
Yes, it was Lucas idea and ended being the best acting role of Mark Hammil in his career.
Star Wars fantards wanted Luke being a super gary-stu instead (this is why they don't make movies)

>>217172127
Luke didn't try to kill Kylo, this was a lie he told Rey. You would know this if you had watched the movie.

It had some moments
Like the beach trooper scene where he got arrested, the dialogue on that was down right hilarious

>>217175908
>it was Lucas idea
that Luke was there was Lucas' idea, not that he died there and was a whiny pussy the whole film

There are only real two possibilities here. Either Rian is completely ignorant of Star Wars and Luke Skywalker (unlikely as a filmmaker), or it was character assassination, no doubt with KK's blessing. I always thought it weird they hired RIAN JOHNSON to do the middle Star Wars film, guy was straight arthouse up until then. Even Looper is, essentially, arthouse sci-fi.

Luke Skywalker: Lesson two. Now that they're extinct, the Jedi are romanticized, deified. But if your strip away the myth and look at their deeds, the legacy of the Jedi is failure. Hypocrisy, hubris.
Rey: That's not true!
Luke Skywalker: At the height of their powers, they allowed Darth Sidious to rise, create the Empire, and wipe them out. It was a Jedi Master who was responsible for the training and creation of Darth Vader.

I don't mind him putting Luke in there. I mean, I hate J J Abrams passionately, but I wanted to see Luke and Leia back. Leia was a huge disappointment because Carrie Fisher is a cokefiend and was totally walled when the movie was made. But Hamill got in the best shape of his life and looks fucking terrific, and Abrams did a good job with the reveal.
Rian deserves all the blame for what happened, it was 100% his baby and he fucking smashed it upon the rocks. I can almost imagine how gleeful he was writing that shit.

Nonsense, you trust the audience to have seen the first movie and open with Rey doing shit like, idk, levitating rocks. Or you do something else. You don't literally NEED to start it with that interaction, that interaction could be anything, it's not important. Luke gets his lightsaber back, comes out of exile, starts being a hero. Simple. Ez. Like Ben coming out of retirement for Luke.

Pottery.

Yeah just skip Luke learning about Han's death. Skip the CLIFFHANGER interaction of Rey offering the lightsaber to Luke. Skip Luke explaining how Kylo fell to the dark side. Just start with a training montage so the Star Wars fans clap at remembering the ESB scene!
The softball setup is ending the movie at the END OF THE MOVIE, not shoehorning in a marvel scene for twitter to talk about.

The whole point is to atomise you until everyone is dependent on the State. They do this by deconstructing your traditions, heroes, culture, family, religion, etc., as a means to erase them. They subvert until you become so demoralised they take over.

Because "we want the Hunger Games audience" and teenage girls don't want to see three out of shape 70 year olds being super cool and badass.

Ruined by Carrie Fisher. George Lucas wanted Leia to be important in the sequels, Disney clearly wanted Leia to be important. But Carrie didn't give a fuck, she just wanted to secure a job for her daughter and get some more money so she can live her life.
>Han
Someone had to die, and the shitty script had to undo everything about the ending of ROTJ. I think Han was actually pretty good characterwise, just the deadbeat piece of shit backstory that ruins him.

”It just felt like every time Luke came in and entered the movie, he just took it over,” Arndt said. “Suddenly you didn’t care about your main character anymore because, ‘Oh f–k, Luke Skywalker’s here. I want to see what he’s going to do.’”
>R2 and C3P0
Must be some licensing thing. Lucas wanted the sequels to end with R2 and C3P0, instead they are almost entirely ignored in the sequels (except the C3P0 death fakeout to make it seem like there are stake)

JJ Abrams: "That was probably one of the mistakes I made in that. My thinking at the time was that Chewbacca, despite the pain he was feeling, was focused on trying to save Finn and getting him taken care of. So I tried to have Chewbacca go off with him and focus on Rey, and then have Rey find Leia and Leia find Rey. The idea being that both of them being strong with the Force and never having met, would know about each other — that Leia would have been told about her beyond what we saw onscreen and Reyof course would have learned about Leia. And that reunion would be a meeting and a reunion all in one, and a sort of commiseration of their mutual loss."
>>
>>217178333

"That glance" is him struggling to stay awake while Rian talks about the tone of 2nd films in trilogies. He's nearly catatonic for the entire press conference.

Lucas and Yidney's interpretation of Leia's importance was wildly different
In the Lucas ST she was mainly part of the political side of the plot while Luke had his own spiritual side and Han had his own stuff too. They all got equal treatment as important heroes
In Disney (and particularly KK and Fagloni's PoV), Leia was a feminist icon which had to replace Luke as master mentor cause otherwise muh heckin' patriarchy o algo.

I listened to the commentary track, kylo wasn't lying, it was how he remembers that moment
>>
>>217178340
Damage control.
Just shows you he never cared for Star Wars even if he claimed he did.
>>
Another couple of things from the commentary, he usually LOVES praising actors and he said nothing about John Boyega, only about the direction of the character. Also he is usually pretty upbeat(I listened to knives out and glass onion commentaries), but in this one as the movie goes on he gets more sad. He really likes rey/kylo scenes, and I agree, it was the best part
>>
>>217175925
>>217179898
My interpretation was that Luke never physically reached the point of pulling out a lightsaber but being a powerful force user, in his sleep he picked up the scenario playing out in Luke's head and assumed it was real, woke up and responded accordingly so that's what he remembers.

Filoni was ALWAYS heavily involved with Yidsney SW, every bad decision as far back as even TFA can be traced back to him to an extent, and him only gaining power after the Disney+ period made his influence even worse

The Last Jedi's portrayal of Luke Skywalker is what should have been in Return of the Jedi. George Lucas is a hack fraud who designed an infallible self-insert as a main character and eventually realized it and decided to make the primary antagonist an emotional retard in the nth hour.

Just admit you hate han solo, didn't understand the gritty backstory that would even take him to mos eisley, you were clearly introduced to ANH after George edited him shooting first out, and know absolute shit of the underworld elements or space piloting being essential in SW but just always wanted to skip ahead to some lightsaber scenes

I bet you completely missed the heavy implication reference in ESB when Vader turned to Boba Fett and specifically told HIM with his finger in Fett's face "No Disintegration!"
Which strongly implies that out of the random mish mash of bounty hunters they hired Vader was well aware and had previous knowledge of Boba Fett and his reputation(and actually believed was so competent that he needed limitations layed out before being cut loose)

I bet you didn't even read the first 5 books of the EU that came out
You probably never read about Dathomir and got everything you know from Star Wars Adventures.
You probably don't know fuck all of Hans home planet, that he came from a culture of gritty engineers and space truckers.

Next time you want to open your backwoods ingrate mouth just admit you "don't get it" before you try to gatekeep who is a star wars fan or not you puppy zillenial, not every Star wars franchise HAS to be strictly force users and clean looking admirals on giant military space boats, some of us appreciate the Cantina elements and it's back stories.

they legit thought that would be good storytelling:
-subvert expectations
-it's a mystery!
-why? how? what is going on?!
-isn't that more interesting? you see the old heroes defeated, don't you now want to know how they came to be like this?
-gives a reason to start with new fresh characters, who also figure out the "why?" along with the audience

in concept, it's not a bad decision. it's how they answered the questions that ruined it. and boooyyy did they ruin it

Why? Kylo Ren's arc in the first two movies because he is an inversion of Vader- he starts the trilogy doubting himself and his evil path but by the end of the Last Jedi he is evil not because he feels compelled to do so, but because it is who HE chooses to be.

That's before the Rise of Skywalker ruined everything because Abrams and SW fanboys minds are governed by cliches and they shat their pants because TLJ didn't leave an evil pedo in a robe to overthrow and a brooding henchman to redeem

> Kylo Ren's arc in the first two movies because he is an inversion of Vader
here’s the problem, HE’S TRYING TO BE A GUY WHO TURNED ON THE SITH
Vader’s redemption is what makes ben’s story make zero sense. he was in a loving family and friends. zero reason to turn to the dark. he’s not an emotion less monk raised in a weird cult like anakin who than has all those emotions rush back inti him when he finds padme as his surrogate replacement mom. it makes NO sense. only brainwashing would.

The problem is that you've been engaging with EU content and wookieepedia shit and it's completely destroyed your ability to make inferences. The films were NEVER going to be able to satisfactorily explain the entire 35 year gap between RotJ and TFA to the wikifag. everything you NEED is in the movies if you pay attention and you're not just crying because your feelings are hurt that the OT heroes suffered adversity in middle age

>han, leia and luke are horrible people and horrible guardians, which is the opposite of the OG
Plenty of good people don't end up being the best parents. Leia was busy building the New Republic, Han was never a very emotional sentimental guy even at his best, and they sent Ben away to Luke to be trained and that only contributed to Ben's abandonment

>>
>>217187385
>perfect parents
there is a difference between “perfect parents” and criminal neglect, which is what i would pin them both down. not telling ben solo about vader till he was 23 years old makes non sense and breaks canon. han solo deciding to be a smuggler again makes no sense. he has more money than god and by end of jedi he was a general in the rebellion, pretty sure he would fight the first order till he dies in combat. you took all the character development and took them back to even shitter versions of themselves at new hope

>>217187423
Ben Solo felt like he was a fuck up who didn't live up to the legacy of his famous family and he had an evil pedo in a robe whispering thru his ear from afar that if he turned bad he could be epic like Vader instead.

He was barely in Luke's Jedi Order, the fuck are you on about? It's never said in the films he was a fuck up
>he had an evil pedo in a robe whispering thru his ear from afar that if he turned bad he could be epic like Vader instead
And he never told Luke for some fucking reason
And Luke felt it and decided to fucking kill Ben for some reason
None of it makes basic sense and you Disneyjeets are the biggest retards on the planet
>his childhood heroes could be absentee parents
Why would Leia, who'd have trauma over losing her parents, be fucking absentee
And why would Luke who turned Vader to the light over familial ties ignore Ben
None of this fits any of the OT characters, it's a complete character rewrite
>What's interesting is what's epic and makes me feel good about myself
No, what's interesting is a good fucking narrative that's logical and has conflict born out of actual plot points explained in the films and can be solved reasonably. The ST's conflict is literally "Leia and Han go back to their early OT selves except even more arrogant for no fucking reason but we needed them to redo ANH again, they ignore Ben and so does Luke for no reason, also Palpatine is alive again for some reason and he controls Ben but Ben never tells Luke but Luke is a psycho so he tries murdering Ben and shit falls apart cause everyone is so fucking braindead"
>>
>>217187567

I caught that scene a week or so ago when I re-watched Return of the Jedi, it was 100% cringe.

so incorrect, it deserves "Special Edition" re-editing of the scene. Leia could say "I never knew my birth mother, but they showed me a video once..."

they re-edited the Emperor talking to Vader about "The son of Skywalker", they needed to fix that other scene, too

and let's not forget the most important retcon scene where Luke himself basically yells at Obi-Wan "You told me Vader killed my father!" whoops! the character in the movie said "WTF! breaking the lore?!!"

Funny thing with that. The original version of RotS had Padme live, with Anakin's goal being to have more power. But when editing the movie, Lucas realized that this wouldn't work for Anakin's character so he reshot and filmed new scenes to make Padme the reason he goes dark. Killing her off to make his story much more tragic.

Anakin saying

>from my point of view, the Jedi are evil
were leftovers from the original cut. In that scene with Palpatine, he would've witnessed the Jedi coming to arrest the former, convincing him that the Jedi WERE plotting to take over. This was also the same cut that had Anakin thinking Padme was having an affair with Obi-Wan, with certain bits from it also getting left in. The second vision was added in the 2nd cut, with the original scene involving Anakin using that PSP looking thing to check the house footage. There, he would see Obi-Wan visiting Padme and thinking the worst.

JJ and nuwriters are normalfags. They don't see Chewbacca as a character, to them only humans who look like humans can be characters. Same reason they make Kylo take off his mask, because they can't understand someone if they can't see their face. Hell if they were smart about it they could have had Kylo's first time taking the mask off be when he's with Han so it has a bit of emotional weight, instead he takes it off when talking to Rey.
>>
>>217173250

Which is stupid since Luke redeemed Vader, a hardened Sith warrior who killed countless people by the end of his life. He shouldn't have been concerned about his nephew, a mere teenager, having a bad dream.
