>”I’m gonna burn the sacred jedi texts!” >Yoda explodes tree with lighting before Luke can do it >”THE ANCIENT TEXTS!!!”
I just don’t get how shitty a script can be for a movie of this caliber. Why would Luke go to do something, have it done by someone else, and then freak out the other person did it? Characters aren’t even consistent in the sphere of the movie itself
Jace Brown
The texts were already on the Falcon. It must be hard for you to pay attention in a movie.
Christian Jackson
Why hadn't the Jedi put the books in cloud storage?
Adam Stewart
This doesn't change the context of the scene, brainlet.
Christian Turner
>Why would Luke go to do something, have it done by someone else, and then freak out the other person did it? Characters aren’t even consistent in the sphere of the movie itself you find this in YA and SJW garbage, like current Marvel Comics.
Andrew Sullivan
Nah m8.
He yelled because Yoda referred to them as shitty useless books. Luke wanted to burn them in order to end the Jedi for good, but Yoda basically undermined his entire mission by burning them himself and saying "dude they're just books it doesn't matter lmao".
Brody Barnes
Stop reading.
Samuel Gray
Spirit Yoda would have known the books were gone and that the burning would do nothing but shock sense into Luke. Of course a spirit would know the books weren't in the tree.
Aaron Robinson
Are you misunderstanding OP on purpose or just retarded?
Levi Miller
...
Bentley Allen
Are you retarded? Who said anything about the texts actually being burnt? It must be hard for you to read a few sentences so here I’ll break it down for baby user:
Luke went to burn the texts with a torch regardless of whether he knew Rey had them, Yoda burnt the tree that housed the texts before Luke could burn anything, and then Luke proceeded to freak out that the texts were burnt regardless of whether he knew they were in there.
Luke got mad at Yoda for doing something he was about to do literally seconds before. Not only that, Yoda burnt a sacred tree for literally no reason.
Inconsistency is rampant in this film
Luis Watson
>time to burn the books and end the jedi for good >LMAO NO I WILL BURN IT CAUSE IT'S USELESS >Yoda why! I thought it would make a difference >IT DOESN"T LMAO REY ALREADY HAS THEM
Henry Gonzalez
It was written to convey that Luke still cared about the sacred Jedi texts. He wasn't really going to destroy them.
You honestly have to have something interfering with your ability to watch and discern movies if you didn't pick up on this
David Lewis
Its a woman thing. Women like to do things themselves and don't like it when someone else does the thing they wanted to go. I have a friend who's g/f likes to open things. Like wine or whatever. The ends don't justify the means with her. If open it cause its closer to me or whatever, she gets a little upset cause she didnt get to do it. They literally made these movies for women who cling to dumb stupid shit and flip emotions like a light switch.
Mason Sanchez
A bald assertion isn't an argument. I've already refuted your representation based arguments. Give me something else.
Easton Peterson
You guys are just totally clueless.
YODA KNEW THE BOOKS WERE GONE
Caleb Turner
>Movie has Yoda make a statement that Luke never read them and they aren’t needed at all >Rey still takes them >Luke dies thinking they’re destroyed >He’s gonna find out when he’s a ghost anyway
Another few inconsistencies
Carter Williams
faggot
Mason Reyes
It's microwaved pasta, anons.
Gavin White
What does Yoda knowing that they were taking do for anyone? Luke is going to kow Rey has them, and a sacred force tree was destroyed for no reason whatsoever
Sebastian Adams
Fuck you idiots. The real question here is, I'd yoda can cast force lightning as a force ghost to interact with the physical realm why didn't he just save the resistance from Snoke/Kylo, or better yet the rebels from the empire in episode 6?
This is the new eagles to mordor, mark my words.
James Evans
It's one thing to say something and completely different to actually do said thing. How is that hard to grasp? Also he was hesitating
Nolan Green
Reminder that even though you're only pretending to be retarded, this is so fucking stupid that you'd have to be drawing on something inherent in you to put on the act.
Christopher Reed
>What does yoda know they were taking do >kow rey has them
hmm. you are obviously too slow for kino
Levi Peterson
>Fuck you idiots >I'd yoda
Jason Clark
He would have helped against Sheev, but the delicious smell of War M food was too distracting. He found out too late that the smell came from Luke
Christian Peterson
What is autocorrect? >hurrdurr phoneposting You know I meant "if". Refute my post.
Jaxon Price
>chinese cultural revolution >out with the four olds >major tenet destroying ancient eastern mysticism
The Jedi "religion" is basically eastern mysticism. Disney had to kill it to gain access to the chinese market.
Luis Peterson
But again, if Yoda as a ghost knew Rey had them, Luke will know too. It’s also been established that they’re near unreadable and Luke never did. So Luke becomes a ghost and knows Rey has them, negating any point Yoda had, and the only thing lost was the oldest and most sacred force tree in the universe.
Henry Adams
There's limits to how much Force ghosts can alter the timeline. The tree was going to be destroyed sooner or later, and all Yoda did was hasten it. It's like how Wolverine delayed the destruction of all mutants in Days of Future Past but couldn't stop it from eventually happening in Logan because mutants are destined to be wiped out. Or at least that's how I'd explain it if I had to clean up this mess.
Connor Watson
Anything that makes all these (((You)))s possible is worth it for someone as lonely as me.
Levi Rivera
you didn't come up with that I was posting it two days ago.
Colton Walker
Haf nother for the road, fren
Jacob Ross
Luke never intended to burn the texts, he was being dramatic. He just wanted enough attention to get the force ghosts to intervene
think about it, the only time force ghosts show up is when a jedi's emotion is running rampant
>luke about to die in ESB >yoda being frustrated all through ESB >luke being happy in ROTJ
Aaron Martin
Just turn off your brain and enjoy the movie.
Noah Adams
But Snoke was going to be killed too, literally an hour later. Why not show up before he kills thousands of innocent resistance fighters and precious ships? Assuming your explanation isnt pulled out of your ass.
I literally said this to people on the night of the premiere but if you want the credit I don't care. I just want people to start asking this.
Easton Garcia
Until someone can refute this, the point in the OP stands
Wyatt Robinson
What movie explains this? If this is explained in some EU book, it’s not canon anymore. I remember talking to the people I went to see the movie with, and bringing up the same point: if Luke wanted to help the resistance, and he’s dead now, and force ghosts are basically gods, why doesn’t he destroy the first order himself?
Noah Taylor
Make this the chinese cultural revolution and youve got it.
Basically disney is signalling chinese censors that the jedi religion will not be part of their action movies.
And simultaneously reinforcing the righteousness of the chinese cultural revolution.
Dont look at this with a western frame of reference anymore. Look to the east, just like the 80's.
Aaron Long
Why would Yoda show up only now, and not earlier to convince Luke not to kill Ben?
Evan Edwards
The Jedi seem so shallow that I have no idea what important information could even be in those texts
Jeremiah Torres
>There's limits to how much Force ghosts can alter the timeline.
Nice head canon faggot
Hunter Rogers
it a very common human reaction to repent almost immediately after making big decissions, it happens in many different situations, like spending a big amount of money, ending a relationship and so many others... how come you haven't experienced this? And as someone else posted, you see him walking towards the tree with the apparent intention to set on fire, you don't know if he was going to burn the books or not.
Jacob Nelson
Whoa, are the texts the Quran and are Jedi Muslims? This is a very deep movie.
Nolan Morris
aw fuck more like those monks the chinks want to get rid of. the monks that are killing muslims i think
Jeremiah Fisher
>pasta so is this faggot
Noah Brown
The shot of the books in the Falcon was added by Disney at the last minute because they realized (still too late) that Johnson was writing the franchise into a corner for the sake of pushing an agenda. Johnson was trying to make some bullshit statement about burning the Bible and being "spiritual" instead of religious. The narrative was supposed to be that religion needs to die and that it's better to be spiritual without anyone teaching you.
Robert Barnes
Luke was throwing a juvenile hissy fit, like when teenagers threaten to kill themselves to get attention. When Yoda actually did it he was shocked.
Adrian Peterson
What the fuck are you talking about, faggot? What could the texts possibly teach? How to lift heavier rocks? How to win pod races and influence troopers?
Jacob Reyes
Abilities some consider to be unnatural.
Christopher Jones
>How to lift heavier rocks? yes
Connor Ward
No one? Can no one refute this?
Juan Wright
Don't you think a manual on lifting heavy rocks would be useful if every other Jedi was dead or couldn't teach?
Landon Morales
A bald assertion isn't an argument. I've already refuted your representation based arguments. Give me something else.
Nathan Mitchell
MaRey Mixer Sue wins again.
Jace Powell
Jesus Christ, look at this brainlet
Thomas Bell
>better to be spiritual without anyone teaching you. But you can still be a spiritual person and have mentors at the same time. And without a history of recorded religions to learn from, how will you come to your own conclusions about spirituality? And if you are such a spiritual person, why the fuck would you burn an entire history of a religion? Spiritual people actually respect religion. What good does burning it do?
Andrew Murphy
Nothing, but only because Rey magically learned how to do advanced force tactics like the jedi mind trick by herself on multiple targets within hours of finding out about the force. Its almost like the shitty writing has come back to bite this trilogy in the ass.
Robert Turner
Rian Johnson is not actually spiritual. He is an atheist who wants to pay lipservice to spirituality so as to not appear biased.
Asher Adams
Luke activates his lightsaber to kill kylo but not really Luke goes with a torch to burn books but not really Fuck ryan
James Nguyen
I'm glad someone posted this. This is probably the most retarded Sup Forums thread of the day.
Evan Murphy
>no new ip
Don't samefag your retarded comment.
Matthew Turner
>I walked up with a burning torch but IT WAS JUST A PRANK BRO
Robert Harris
It wasn't really about "wanting the Jedi to end" - that's just the rationalisation Luke put on it. He wanted to burn them to symbolise his own, personal, failure - it was an emotional moment. He is shocked when Yoda does it anyway because he still, on same level, believes in the Jedi.
Austin Price
...
Luis Barnes
Id rather have had luke actually start the fire then scramble to put it out and fail. Then yoda shows up and tells him the texts didnt matter, that would have been a better scenario that actually makes sense.
Adam Collins
So why did he go there with the torch and all
Parker Watson
i really hope it's more than one person pasting this everywhere because if not than it's just pathetic
Blake Turner
A bald assertion isn't an argument. I've already refuted your representation based arguments. Give me something else.
Gabriel Bell
>replying before you've read the entire post poor form
Tyler Thomas
He was conflicted, but in the moment of truth he couldn't and didn't want to burn the books.
Luis Turner
>I just don’t get how shitty a script can be for a movie of this caliber. look who's in charge
Sebastian Foster
But Yoda is supposed to do a funny.
Ethan Bennett
Why didnt Yoda just shoot lightning at snoke and killed him?
Nathan James
I keep seeing this but it's still not funny yet. Needs some tweaking or maybe just keep spamming for a few more days. We'll figure it out.
Samuel Bell
how not to fall to the dark side, perhaps?
Dylan Phillips
Snoke made sure he always had a roof over his head. You can see how he briefly looks up before he walks anywhere.
Jeremiah Watson
he just had his ass kicked by a girl and didn't know what he was doing.
Nolan Martinez
Nah he was feeling a bit sadder than usual so he couldn't muster the energy to get fresh milk from the titty monster. He drank some older milk instead which had gone off and made him hallucinate Yoda. It's obvious when you think about it. The film is airtight honestly, I'm sick of people nitpicking Rian's masterpiece.
Dylan Hernandez
>Luke ends Jedi order >Kyle and Smoke go around teaching everyone dark force powers
What was his plan, really? Did he want the galaxy to be consumed by the first order/evil?
