Yea, he's prolly the same age as Luke was when he blew up a space station murdering millions except the main bad guy of the movie.

@ vroom vroom noises

I admit that's a funny meme but considering that Luke blew up the galaxy threatening Death Star and became hero of the Rebellion later the same *day* that he was making the vroom vroom noises I'd say that gives him a pass.

Yeah he manned up quick. He was hacking up ‘squatches on Hoth and sending piggies to market at Jabba’s Pallace in no time.

Yep. And before someone corrects me I realize I goofed when I said he blew up the Death Star the same day. Though it was probably within 24 hours I suppose he did have to wait until the next morning before he went out and got R2 so not technically the same day, lol.

I never got why Luke needed to play with a toy Skyhopper when he was already flying the real thing.

I've seen grown men dress like Darth Vader yet still have a 1/6th figure around as well.

And lots of pro athletes play their same sport on home video consoles.

And people say Rey is a “Mary Sue”

How long did he train again?

Two years.
And no one said his training was complete. Yoda just died, that's all.

But Rey wasn't trained at all other than getting tickled with a blade of grass as a joke. At least we got a number of "getting of wisdom" scenes with Yoda and Luke. As we discussed before, Luke's training felt like ten days, maybe a couple of weeks - and a couple of weeks intensively trained every day by someone like Yoda is pretty significant.

And you can complete Marine Corps training in 13 weeks.

There is here.

I honestly jest....I believe Luke was trained for about 2 weeks to a month.

The Falcon Hyperdrive was damaged, and they had to fly to Bespin. Han says "Its a long way, but I think we can make it."

I doubt they had food for longer than that.

So 1 month, versus about 1 week.....

tomatoes.... tomatoes

Attack on the Pentagon on 9/11 seems to buck that trend.

Granted, it was a defence force office but most casualties were civilians.

I've seen grown men dress like Darth Vader yet still have a 1/6th figure around as well.

But they're still not the *real* Vader. They just got Kylo-onic syndrome.

This reviewer has finally come to his senses and admitted it was he, not that film, that was the problem: https://www.cinemablend.com/news/2397261/i-was-wrong-about-star-wars-the-last-jedi


Also, the combined might of BP and IW just pushed TLJ out of the all-time top 10.

"It wasn't the movie I expected -- a fault of mine, and not of the movie (naturally)."

Because that somehow makes the movie better ?
Yeah...

I just realized watching this again

That Rey never saw Luke’s Force projection persona and ironically Leia didn’t get to see how Luke really looked like

How crazy and bizarre is that. I wonder how Rey would’ve reacted if she saw a slimmer Luke or Leia seeing hermit Luke
