One thing I don’t understand is how people think that Rey beat Luke. Luke was barely exerting any effort and easily bested her. It ended when he grabbed her weapon right out of her hand. Then she just used a cheap move and grabbed the saber. If Luke hadn’t chosen already to not use his old saber or have it on him, then she would have never been able to get the upper ground. I thought the film made it clear that Luke is clearly the vast superior to Rey and that she simply took advantage of Luke’s self imposed disconnection from everything involving the Jedi, including his saber.
