That was a LOT. Until the end, it was a masterpiece. Might still be a masterpiece, but I’m gonna need sometime to digest MASSIVE SPOILER
Luke’s death. I don’t get why, after the reveal that he had projected during the Kylo Ren fight, he died anyway. The right plot move to me was to keep him alive. It would keep with this movie’s overarching practice of invoking, then subverting, the tropes of the original trilogy. Invoking Ben’s sacrifice for Luke but keeping Luke alive is the subversion.
Or maybe I just didn’t want Luke to die. I won’t pretend I’m thinking all the way clear on this.
