Now... this show is like a love letter to a lifetime of devotion. For me... this show has been better than even Empire. Just perfect in every way! This is what we needed to end 2020.

Yes, good can still exist, but Evil triumphs when the good do nothing and that's what's happening in our world rn. The Good have become complacent and allowed evil to seep into every aspect of society, from Government to Education and Medicine.

The sound of Red Five, the graceful landing, the cloaked walk, the fighting style, the green saber, the gloved right hand, the ode to the close of Rogue One, the decloaking, the dialogue, the Kennedy/Abrams/Johnson knife twist ("Talent without training is meaningless"), Din taking off his helmet, R2, Din's head nod to Grogu's wink...

Mark Hamill probably didn't even ask for a paycheck, he has to be so happy to get an opportunity to stick it to Rian Johnson and the Sequel trilogy. ;)

You don't know Mark Hamill. He has never expressed such feelings.

[@phj223]

@@MeanMrMustard1 lol did you only just recently get access to KZbin, or what else is wrong

[@MeanMrMustard1]

@@phj223 I repeat: Mark Hamill has never expressed such negative feelings. He's a very positive guy. What's wrong with you? Do you think Mark Hamill would take your side? Why be negative when you can be positive? What have you learned from Star Wars?

I've been watching (and re-watching, and re-watching) reactions to this episode for over a month now, and this is hands-down the best one. This reaction is 100% genuine, SO nerdy, and perfectly encapsulates what's so incredible about Star Wars when it's at its best. When I hear you say "If I have to explain... it's not something you will understand," I laugh out loud because one really couldn't put it any better. People LOVE this character in a way that really isn't comparable to any other character in the Western media canon. How many of you reading this remember, viscerally, the time(s) you went as Luke for Halloween? How many of you could draw his lightsaber by memory? How many of you as kids (or maybe as adults) can admit to looking at an object across the room, reaching out your hand, and willing it to come to you, wanting nothing more than do be like Luke Skywalker? This character is truly transcendent for the way he affected and continues to affect peoples lives--people of all colors and backgrounds, man or woman, across generations. The Luke Skywalker of the first three films taught us that even the humblest of backgrounds can't stop someone from making cosmic impacts. He taught us that perseverance, belief, and love are more powerful than a galactic empire. He also taught us that we all need help, and that talent without training (without discipline, without humility, without failure) is nothing. "That is Luke. That is OUR Luke," he says. Your damn right. This is the Luke people feel OWNERSHIP over, because he's been integral to our lives and to the people we've become since we first fell in love with him. The character is a part of us. So can you really blame us for wanting to see Luke in his prime? For feeling like he deserves transcendent, all-powerful moments because of what he's meant to us for so many years? Again, if we have to explain, it's not something you will understand. Just watch this video--watch this video and trust that what Luke Skywalker means to this kid is what he means to millions of Star Wars fans around the globe. Forgive me for the snark, but I can't help but imagine JJ Abrams and Rian Johnson watching this video and thinking, "Ohhhhhh... I think we get it now."

[@japbigm1]

[@Biscuuitss]

[@sanpol8124]

That is real love to Star Wars! I cried a lot too!! Greetings from Argentina!!

[@thedavid3737]

The sight of that green lightsaber will bring tears to a grown man’s eyes. A lot of us see a hero.

[@kimberlyrobinson3992]

I felt you every single second, my brother. As you eloquently said, “This is our Luke.”

[@Skyelilith]

My tears were flowing like waterfalls as well 😅

[@planet9studios59]

I was crying too bro 😭

[@hawkzulu5671]

Same here.. cried like a B!TCH... xd

[@skyhawkslcb18]

this is the absolute pinnacle of television and no one will ever be able to convince me otherwise. this was something i never thought i would see in my lifetime and i'm grateful that it was delivered. fuck. i'm gonna go lay down and cry again.

[@TheRourkster]

I watched this episode with my dad, the man who raised me, the man who brought me up loving Star Wars! He’s an awesome dad but when he said to me who is that with a green lightsaber! Not recognising luke by his x-wing of blade colour or even the hilt itself.. never have a wanted to slap someone so much in my life!

[@thestoneymagnum]

😂😂😂

[@theradgegadgie6352]

I felt a great disturbance in the Force. As if two billion grown-ass men and women suddenly just burst into tears of joy after years of disappointment. I feel something wonderful has happened.

[@DarthRoedy]

I feel you man. Something that can bring tears of joy really means something man. I cried too.

[@laurilouise8280]

This was the most incredible thing we all needed, not only in 2020 but for decades!!! Thank you for your utterly honest reaction that we were all feeling!!

[@ChristopherMarshburn]

I saw Star Wars on opening day 1977 as a teenager. You don’t have to explain a thing.

[@bretwilliams2294]

So many of us cried in joy during this!! Absolutely zero shame man this was what we all have been waiting for since we were children
