I have no idea how much I believe Luke about going there to die but it's all we have as of right now. And it makes a degree of sense. He went to a place where he didn't want to be found. That checks out to me.

BUT HE LEFT A FUCKING MAP! IT MAKES NO SENSE!!

*cried a million butthurt bots and five fan bois:)


** he didn’t leave a map

if he didn't leave a map what's the reasoning behind these map pieces?

He didn't leave a map, he ripped the map apart hoping no one would put it back together again.

to be fair it was an idiotic play, leaving such a nice and concise hole that was filled by a file inside his #1 droid. When you don't want to be found, you make it so whatever might point at you can't be found either.

The whole map thing is a tad nonsensical, I agree. But my understanding is that the map wasn't as easily read as we might think. The island was so hard to find because it was in the unknown regions. One would need the entire map to even understand where to start looking. It wasn't like they could kind of basically figure it out with a partial map. Again, I'm not saying that makes total sense but I'm pretty sure we're just supposed to suspend our disbelief and go with that.

Well, it's just as good as Obi Wan Kenobi "hiding" on Tatooine and changing his name to Ben Kenobi.

Oh so sneaky Jedi.

Exactly.

It's not like there isn't a track record of this kinda shit since the beginning.

"Senators, I presume you're acquainted with the collection of half-truths and hyperbole known as Obi-Wan Kenobi."

Best line in all of The Clone Wars.

I love you:)

That was exactly the quote I was thinking of and couldn’t think of the episode.

Obi wan is selective with the truth, kids. At best.

Well then.....

I don’t think he did. I do think he lead her up the garden path but never committed (he was playing diplomacy for the orders from the council) and that’s sneaky

But what if he did

See, this is the kind of speculation I LOVE. We have actual scenes to discuss. We have concrete evidence on both sides and we can talk about what we don't know based on what we do know. This is great. Maybe this isn't the right thread for this talk, but I think it's really interesting if he did. I love the implications of that -- not as they pertain to lineage or Rey or any of that but just as a student of both Qui-Gon and Yoda, what does it say about his character if he did "break the Jedi code" like that?

Further, what does the Jedi code actually say about sex? We know attachment is forbid but what about lust? What about love? What about pleasure?

I think this is fascinating territory.

No sex.

The Jedi were all altar boys.
The Jedi council came down and touched them up and griped them.

Regularly.

I’m gonna watch TLJ tonight. And while I love it I will wonder why I don’t
Watch it with anything like the frequency of the others, I will watch it.
