Filoni knows more about Jedi, Mandalorian, and Sith lore than anybody in a big seat at Disney. We are very, very fortunate to have him influencing like this. He has incredible storytelling that is true to the lore, and gives all generations something that they want. It really is amazing for both old and new fans.

When I first saw the scene, I let out a big exhale and with tears in my eyes said to myself "finally". Not only did we get to see the real Luke Skywalker after 37 years, but I finally had the feeling that people making a star wars product actually cared about what they were making and who they were making it for.

[@GhostX122]

Bro how tf you have a mando emojji😂😂😂😂😂

[@theragnarok8896]

I hope they retcon the sequel trilogy and canon books and comics and games and bring back legends/EU books, comics, and games and of course add mandalorian, clone wars, and rebels into the EU canon and hope they would make a big star wars show about the original trilogy characters story and being adapted from the legends EU books all the way from the thrawn trilogy- new Jedi order and being adapted into this TV show!! And of course new story's from new books, new comics, new game, new films of these new characters fit in the EU timeline and even an animated series of new characters. It would be cool if they do a new character about the new Jedi order that Luke made in the EU timeline and how this new character is experiencing the New Jedi Order, and of course the Vong war. Its just so many possibilities to do a story in a galaxy far far away.

[@theswullnasty3353]

The phrase “the big screen” references movies/movie theaters. So The Mandalorian never made it to “the big screen.” Since it’s a TV show, the actual term is called “the small screen.” Just FYI

[@chrislox1]

Dave created so much joy in that scene that the 3 sequels couldn't even come close to. I like the idea that the sequels are an alternate reality. Let's forget them and continue Luke's journey from here?

[@harikoa4723]

Or just make Grogu the new Jedi protagonist of any future films - I would be so keen to see a story from a non-human Jedi's perspective (and agreed, no mention of the trash trilogy in future films).

I hate listening to people discuss the details of the now decannonized 7-9 - I actually couldn’t sit through them, especially the later ones. They’re the only Star Wars ever I couldn’t actually finish because it lacked all power of pulling me in, among other qualities it had…

[@engerek666]

At 2:22 , Watching Dave Filoni correcting the actor's hand during the force push gave me strong feelings. He knows both the characters and the lore inside out. Also, when he stated Ahsoka having vastly more training than Luke, I found it brilliant because I never thought of that myself. In my mind, Ahsoka is the cute Padawan while Luke is the ultimate Jedi Knight. May the force be with you Dave Floni and John Favreau. And may you be with the Force too, always.

[@krschu00]

Luke is still the ultimate Jedi Knight. Has he had as much training? No, but he's still a lot more powerful with the force.

I enjoyed the return of Luke Skywalker. But what I enjoyed the most was watching reaction videos of it here on youtube. Just like he describes. watching the inner child in multiple generations come out. Middle aged men crying as if they found a long lost friend. As for myself. I didn't think Disney would be cool enough to bring back Luke. It crossed my mind when the x-wing appeared, but I thought, "no". Hint after hint, but I didn't believe it until I saw the green light saber, and then my jaw hit the floor.

[@jesusoftheapes]

The instant I saw Red 5 with R2 D2 I was not fooled. I began to ball like a baby and as the tension built my face was that of a child. I screamed IT'S LUKE right as the X-wing fly by. I was still caught up in looking at any evidence as the scene unfolded but I knew it was Luke from the jump. I knew because no other hero would have made me feel that way. That was special and I will always remember the moment Dave and Jon made me feel like a young boy all over again. Nothing in my adult life has ever made me feel like that from watching TV. I am more thankful for this 4 minutes of a streaming TV show than any other programing i have ever ingested.

[@garrettviewegh677]

I hope we see Luke again in other shows, even if it’s just a cameo, for a short episode, or just name dropped. I’ve seen comics of Ashoka and Luke meeting, it would bring fans to tears empathizing with Ashoka upon learning her master found his way back to the light in film. It would have a similar bittersweet sympathy as when we saw the broken man behind the iconic mask in Return of the Jedi.

At 5:06 you can see R2 is green. This is probably because the shot they were filming had a bluescreen, so the blue would get lost, like it did in the trench run. It's a minor thing but still very intriguing.

[@lazyliam7402]

In all fairness I was questioning if it was possible when I saw a lone x-wing, but as soon as I saw the black glove with green saber I had no doubt in my mind that it was Luke right there and then. Find it hard to believe that there were people unsure as to who it was until the face reveal confirmed it. But Dave is saying that is the case then I suppose I have to believe him ^^

[@LSmallCatL]

I knew it would be Luke. First off the time frame makes sense, second is the very specific lone ship he arrived in. Third is his cloak; he's not wearing a robe like every other Jedi we've seen. Fourth is his gloved hand. Fifth is that his fighting style was reminiscent of Luke's. Lastly would be his green lightsaber. Post RotJ that really narrows down who it could be :p None the less seeing Luke be the Jedi Master he was always meant to be was like being vindicated after however many years of shite sequels.
