Well I wasn’t fooled by fake Luke not even for a second, but didn’t know how he was doing what he was doing until revealed. Not only the footprints, but the haircut, hair color and lightsaber totally gave it away for me. That took tension away, which made it all a bit disappointing.
What tension? That he wouldn’t die? Wouldn’t the tension of that be cut anyway when the walkers don’t leave a scratch?
Not to mention, of course, that he does die.
Presumably tension would remain in the showdown with Kylo.
But I imagine most people were fooled, as I was, although confused about Luke’s different look.
I wasn’t fooled at all, but I was on the edge of my seat wondering what is Luke doing? and what is going to happen?.
The movie isn’t trying to fool anyone. All the evidence that something is up with Luke is on the screen. You either notice it or not. All I caught on to first time was the hair color.
Exactly. (The only person being “fooled” is Kylo, even though the truth is right in front of him and he’s too angry to see it.) Whether you notice or not doesn’t impact the scene’s power at all, which is basically my point.
