Btw, here’s something I said on fanedit.org but I think is worth mentionning here also:

Why is everyone feeling the need to open the Rey+Luke sequence exactly where TFA left off?

We don’t need to see Luke toss the saber.

We don’t even need to see the immediate results of Rey meeting Luke in TFA.

The first time we see Rey and Luke since the end of TFA can be… well any scene really. It can be inside the falcon. It can be at the hut. It can be anywhere. We’re not forced to show what happened when Rey gave Luke the lightsaber, it can definitely happen offscreen.

Rey gives Luke his saber, we already know that from watching TFA. Now what’s next? We can open anytime we want. If the Luke lightsaber toss bothers you… don’t show it! And don’t even show any shot from that scene, period! Just Skip it!
