Will Luke and Ahsoka's first meeting ever be depicted at all?
- Thread starter Gaith
- Start date
Exactly!Ezmo?
Maybe Yoda said that because Ezra and Ahsoka would't stand a chance against Vader and Sidious?
Sidelining the mains was a terrible choice as well as not using the rancor more.
Ghost Obi-Wan: that's telling him. It depends greatly on our own point of view. Plus, you were no longer a Jedi.
That's the point, these derivative characters and contrived POV excuses to have them also around but also not around; I went back through a portal in time so you won't be dead, but then you no longer felt like a Jedi - and then I was in another dimension/universe the whole time, etc. are labored moronic additions.
They don't add to the story, they take away from it.

Jedi, JIABN, what's the difference?
Different pay rate.
But enough about Legends EU.That's the point, these derivative characters and contrived POV excuses to have them also around but also not around; I went back in time so you won't be dead, but then you no longer felt like a Jedi - and then I was in another dimension/universe the whole time, etc. are labored moronic additions.

Adventure, excitement, pay rate... a JIABN knows not these things.
By the end, there was literally a Jedi on Yavin at the end of ANH when Luke and company got there.
So, the excesses of late-period Legends means the new canon should be able to do the same without any scrutiny or reproach?
But that didn't happen.
It seems like they had it at their disposal to use as an excuse, but didn't go for it.
So like I said contrived, to have them be around but also not. He rode off on a space whale? So he was there or he wasn't? These are bad labored additions, that simultaneously want to be part of the narrative yet $#!t all over it.
When gone am I, last of the Jedi will you be, pass on what you have learned, (meaning to his sister, and those that come after.
Of course Disney Luke is such a worthless pos coward, slave to fear, slave to Jedi dogma he never followed, slave to inaction, and complete failure. Not because they took him some interesting "new" direction. Because they denied and regressed him to having learned nothing from the characters (as told) own Instinct, choices, and lived experience.
but that's a whole other topic.

Just followed his masters' example.
Actually no he didn't, the whole point of the character was he never followed Jedi dogma, he implicitly followed his own instincts, and chose his own path, made his own mistakes, wore it as a symbol any kid could see. Chose to not give up on, and maintain his connection to those he cared about, and family, In doing so saved his father, and brought about the return of the Jedi his way.

Oh, so when Obi-Wan's apprentice went all evil he didn't go in to hiding? Or Yoda for that matter? Exile, even?
Heroes do not always succeed.
As did Luke, a flawed character , he wore his greatest failure on his hand.
Again Luke was not Yoda or Obi-Wan.
Did we see the same movie? Obviously we have a different take on the character.
He made his own choices, his instinct was to always go to his friends family who needed him.
That instinct, his choice, his path, lost him his hand, he made mistakes, he owned it, recognized it, yet still made the choice. His father (a slave to his fear) seeing that (free will) saved him, Luke brought about the rotj his way.
Disney Luke denies him that, they didn't take him in any new or interesting direction, they regressively have him learn nothing from it, and is irreconcilable with the choices, learned experience and forward momentum of the OT character.

Agree to disagree. Feels very much in line with traditional mythic heroes.
Which was what, again?
