Just likeHan Solo , Luke Skywalker is one of the most pop movie heroes of all time . TheStar Warsprotagonist has been portray by Mark Hamill in all the enfranchisement installation he has been featured in . Hamill is also well known for voicing The Joker in the DC Animated Universe .
Despite being Darth Vader ’s son , Luke is always focus on doing good . Most of his actions are a reflection of his morality . But there are a couple of thing about him that have left viewers scratching their head . The following thing about his reference are still puzzling , to say the least .
Initially Didn’t Know About The Jedi
Obi - Wan render to enlighten Luke about the Jedi and Luke was somehow dumbfounded . He had no idea what Obi was talking about . This is strange given that Luke was sure-enough enough and decree 66 had been perform just 19 age in the first place .
His lack of cognition could have made senseif Clone Wars did n’t fall out , but that event advert the entire galaxy . Every single being that ’s sure-enough enough ought to have known about the Jedi . Sadly , Luke was n’t even aware of what a lightsaber was at first .
The Rescue Plan
While Han Solo is being bear captive at Jabba ’s , Luke comes up with a program to deliver him . However , the plan is extremely blemished . The first part of the plan involves Lando Calrissian pretending to be a castle guard . The second part affect tradingthe droids C-3PO and R2for Han .
The exchange does n’t take place , but what if it had ? Luke would have condemned two mechanical friends to a prolonged menstruum of slavery . There was also a lightsaber inside R2 ’s compartment that would have been lost in the process .
Isn’t Affected By Force Lightning
Given that Emperor Palpatine became disfiguredafter being hit by the Force lightningas he was combat Mace Windu , it is surprising that Luke did n’t get a mark on him when Palpatine hit him with the same lightning . Is there something exceptional about Luke ’s desoxyribonucleic acid ?
It could be argue that Emperor Palpatine can select the type of power to be project , but why could n’t he save himself then ? Perhaps the screenwriters ought to have chosen another way to explain Emperor Palpatine ’s transformation into a monster .
Hiding In Planet Ahch-To
InThe Last Jedi , Luke opened up about losing his Force connexion . He also did n’t prise the Jedi Order any longer . That ’s understandable , but then hechose to hide in the major planet Ahch - To , which is basically the ancestry of Jedi philosophy . Shouldn’t he have gone somewhere else ?
Since he was trying to escape his past , it would have made more sense for him to go far away from a planet that ’s full of Jedi monuments . Everything in Ahch - To holler Jedi . And it was n’t even safe . If the Rebels could chance him there , then the First Order might have done so as well .
Lack Of Attachment To His Adoptive Parents
One of the most worked up moments in the enfranchisement involved Luke Skywalker heading back home , only to find the remains of his adopted parent . cue suggest that theyhad been killed by the Stormtroopersfor refusing to reveal Luke ’s whereabouts .
Surprisingly , Luke does n’t even grieve for them as he should . He just moves on to other adventures . He does n’t even consider retribution . It would have made more sense if this tragic event ended up prompt him to be part of the Rebellion , given that most phallus had been wronged by the Empire .
Wanting To Kill Kylo Ren
Luke considered killing Kylo once , but why ? InThe Last JediLuke goes to Kylo ’s bed , quick to send out his nephew to the afterlife . He changes his nous , but the fact that he even considered it made him unworthy of being on the light side . This seemed like something only Kylo himself would do .
Luke felt that his reasons for wanting to kill Kylo were estimable . He believed Kylo would bring much pain and suffering . And he was right . But why did he not have the same thoughts about Darth Vader ? Why did he believe he could be redeemed ?
Recognizing His Father
TheReturn of the Jedi ’s final moments see Luke coming face to face with three Force ghosts . One was Obi - Wan , the other was Yoda , while the third one was a younger Anakin / Vader . Luke smile , incriminate that he had distinguish his Fatherhood . But how ? He only saw his father once when he was erstwhile and his face was badly damaged .
Perhaps people from other planets are capable to smell out their kin even without know them well enough . But if that was the case , Luke could haverealized that Darth Vader was his family toothe very first clock time he met him . But he did n’t . He had to be say .
Being A Quitter
The Luke Skywalker portrayed inA New Hopewas extremely loyal and brave . But after the events of the first trilogy , he somehow becomes a quitter and extend into expatriation . Part of his intellect for going to exile stem from Kylo , but giving up after one failure seems unlike Luke .
Luke isdisappointed for having failed as Kylo ’s mentor . However , this does n’t apologise his decision to abandon the Rebels and give his friend in danger .
The Force Choke
In the earliest films , it was implied that certain Force powers could only be used by sealed people . For exercise , only Sith had the ability to give Force Lightning , while only the Jedi could forget and transfer it elsewhere . As for the Force Choke , it was reserve for the Sith , hence Darth Vader had it as his signature move .
Surprisingly , Luke used it while breaking into Jabba ’s compound . The scene was telling , as the Force incapacitated the security guards . This seemed so unlike him . Luke was never so vicious in earlier film to the distributor point of hurting guards .
The Age Issues
During the effect ofA New Hope , Luke Skywalker was take to be a teenager . He was invariably call ‘ kid ’ too . But his biologic counterpart Leia was always treated like an grownup . Even Han Solo live on to butterfly with her , mean she should be an adult .
So , why is Leia portrayed as older while Luke is impersonate as younger ? Given Han ’s morals , he would n’t really flirt with a teenager . Or perhaps Leia is treated as an grownup due to her height as a princess . It ’s just not as clear as it should be .
