^^ I was just about to say: this is space, she’s in zero G. She is not flying!

I don’t think I am going to stay on this thread for too long because I feel like it’s the same regurgitated opinions cycling through. I will say that I am a bit disappointed that people are not opening their minds to the idea that people can experience dramatic experiences that drastically alter their viewpoints on the world. Has no one ever been in a funk after a bad breakup or the death of a loved one? Ever seen a person suffer from PTSD? These are not foreign concepts, but people seem to live in a bubble where all the football stars from high school are playing in the NFL. Luke’s character makes absolute sense based on what he’s experienced and he even finds redemption when he allows himself to become entirely consumed and part of the very thing he had sworn off at the beginning of the film.
