hey i haven’t done this in a bit it feels good to be home
You know I’m just pulling your leg! It was a great writeup. Luke’s failure is an important theme for not just the movie to grapple with, but the whole trilogy. It’s a thematic justification for the ‘history repeats itself’ angle.
It’s always nice to look back on a movie that works for you and talk about why it works so well. For me, being a Star Wars fan is more about liking something rather than disliking it. There’s a lot that bothers me about TROS for example, but I can’t imagine I’ll still be mercilessly complaining about it two years on. I like to focus on the positive.
