Well then, that's one perspective on Luke..and perhaps he was "mollycoddled", but it would have been because Owen and Beru were terrified of him following in his father's footsteps. Understandable, don't you think? Luke ended up taking on a huge responsibility once he began learning about the Force and being trained... Even moreso when he learned who his father was. I imagine that would be a huge weight on his shoulders and possibly make him a bit scared of turning out the same way. Of course he could not indulge in fear because as he was taught .. That was a path to the Dark side.

He's already made several crucial changes that weren't book accurate as you mentioned, so what makes you think he'll stay accurate in 3? I have the divisive opinion that the movies aren't really that great, so I'm not really vested either way. I'll wait it out and watch it when it streams just like I did for 2 after being unimpressed with the first one.

I disagree with this being good news for the movies. We watched Return of the Sith again on the big screen because we crave that kind of storytelling on the big screen again and many of us just LOVE that movie. Aside from Rogue One and Solo (even though it didn't do great in the box office) Disney has failed to deliver that(at least in my eyes). I'm not hopeful for the new movies except for Mandalorian. Could care less about the others.

He would have to stay out of 4 for the most part of it were to remain faithful to the books. The movies, IMO, are not the faithful representation so many are hailing them as so I have little faith any more will be.

I for one have been enjoying watching Gatwa, but I've always been a fan so I'm a bit biased there. As far as critical scores go.... Does anyone besides the other critics actually care about them? I care what other watchers think, not someone's professional opinion.

My husband is 8 years younger than me and while, yes, when younger, this gap would have felt like a lot, but it's not really, just as 5 years wasn't for Anakin and Pe. Totally depends on the maturity level of the two involved.

That was my favorite scene in the whole episode. It spoke of the frustrations of dealing with superior attitudes yet lower intelligence that can occur quite often on corporate America.

We're hyper focused because we LOVE what Star Wars used to be and just wish we could get back to that. We're tired of the low quality we've been getting. As far as this movie goes, I already have low expectations because it's not something I would have ever wanted to watch anyway because I just don't consider Rey as a character to be the future and she's sure NOT a Skywalker.

I have a feeling you're absolutely right about everything you said. If she listened, she WOULD retire because we all wish she would just stop trashing what was once an amazing universe with stories about characters we actually cared about.

If this comes out I MAY watch when it comes to streaming, but I won't pay money to watch it on the big screen. That's how little I care about this story. Star Wars movies used to be a MUST watch on the big screen ( I've seen all others on it during their original releases), but this one, nah. I'm good.

Too dark? I didn't notice that at all, I just thought the lighting was appropriate for the settings, unlike other shows/movies. Dune was so dark that nothing I did fixed it. I almost gave up on watching it because of it. I'll never understand what's so great about those movies.... Silo on the otherhand, I can't get enough of. Just brilliant storytelling.

I absolutely hated it. When I could tell that the episode was building up to that, I was just grossed out. They had always had a brother/sister vibe. It just made zero sense for them to go there.... And what it did to both of their relationships with Diego? It was just not worth it.

Oh please do. I would love to learn that ending was all some horrible nightmare. It's the only episode I've only watched once. I just couldn't watch Dean go down like that again. 😩
