#I wish disney would be normal for ten seconds and stop being just so cartoonishly evil

i'd rather have luke be recast and i don't give a damn if the actor 100% resembles hamill, i just want luke to be well written and well acted. it shows that disney doesn't really give a damn about the character and what makes him resonate with people, they treat him like a soulless product and the beating heart of the character is just not present.
👆👆👆 bingo
I think the thing that really grinds my teeth about this is that it truly feels like they’re holding Luke hostage. It feels like they’re trying so hard to preserve ✨The Brand™️✨ of Luke Skywalker instead of actually letting him be a character.
Like I haven’t seen Mando or Boba Fett yet, maybe the character writing if Luke is fine, however whatever performance or good character writing there is, it’s all getting sucked out by the crime against humanity that is CGI Luke. He’s so robotic!!! There was no reason for this just let a normal human man play Luke I’m begging.
You’re losing so much of the soul of the character when you do this. Like Luke has always been a lil weird. His face is a little odd and he’s so animated and energetic, even when he’s in Jedi mode, and all of that is just not there anymore. All of that has been smoothed over for a computer generated copy of the real thing.
And while I know some Star Wars dude bros who salivate over this shit, most people are freaked out by it and think it’s unnecessary. Disney is pouring millions of dollars into something that’s worse than just hiring someone new to play Luke. Most ppl look at CGI Luke and go “egh what is that” and wish they had just recast.
And idk man this was all just a rant but I miss my boy so much. It breaks my heart to see the soul of him missing with all of this corporate motivated digital necromancy, and I just hope someone at Disney comes to their senses soon and either let the guy they have now play Luke without all the CGI, or just hire someone new.
The world won’t end because Luke is a lil different Disney, I promise omfg
