I can sum up this article in one sentence: “I think I’m funny and my idea of roasting characters is to split hairs because I couldn’t come up with anything remotely amusing.”
I’ve seen Dorkly do some fun stuff. This is just… subterranean in comparison.

Imagine being the type to still giving Dorkly clicks.
My Fanfics. Read 'em. Or not.McJon01: We all know that the real reason Archer would lose to Rider is because the events of his own Holy Grail War left him with a particular weakness toward "older sister" types.
Because Anakin Solo was cool. Because Jaina Solo was a badass. Because Jacen Solo was better before he turned into Darth Caedus in a play-for-play reenactment of Revenge of the Sith. Because it makes no sense for a Solo kid to be named Ben, but it makes a shitton of sense for Luke’s son to have that name. And because Kylo Ren is a whiny emo brat with terrible, contrived plot arc and isn’t as interesting as some of the lamest Expanded Universe characters.
Also because Tahiri was better before she was a slut who would fuck her boyfriend’s older brother to not!get a fix of seeing her real boyfriend. And because I can’t think of any possible way that Luke being gay makes the story better. And because Rey is a Mary-Sue. And because the Force doesn’t belong to everyone.

Luke isn’t gay though? Or rather he isn’t anything, or he’s whatever you want him to be because Luke’s sexuality has no bearing on the plot outside of noting that as a Jedi he is, of course, while not necessarily bound to celibacy per se he is forbidden from having emotional attachments so unless you can see Luke knocking some girl up on a one night stand probably no kids in his future yeah?
I read somewhere that one of the writers decided on it. It might have been Abrams, but I don’t think so. That’s not the name I remember in relation to that memory. I might be getting mixed up about something else. But I say everything else with firm certainty.

It was Mark Hamill and he basically just confirmed that Luke is whatever you, the viewer, want him to be
He all but said he is, and we all know we're basically done with Skywalker stuff, and then we'll spend the next half-decade getting Game of Thrones memes spewed at us.
Fun times ahead.

Didn’t mark Hamill devise a back story for Luke that involved him hooking up with a war widow and having a relationship with her for a while till an accident caused them to split up following the death of her son (from a previous marriage( and the writers were like “sure mark, whatever helps you stay in character dude”
him being gay sounds like one of those rogue bits of fanon that everyone swears they heard someone else say
It's interesting to note that in a somewhat recent issue of the Star Wars comic line "Age of Rebellion", there was a plot centred around Palpatine trying to Force break Luke's mind into running away and becoming a hermit. Luke even sees a vision of him on an Achtoo lookalike planet with his X-Wing in the water etc.
Makes you think. Were they testing the waters for Palpatine being involved in Luke's fall perhaps???

I was reffering to more the idea of them retroactively putting it into Episode IX given the blatant allusions to TLJ.

We are still far far of a story about a Force user that can change between Light and Dark at will or is lore-wise impossible?
I mean, this is Disney Star Wars so they can do what they like lore-wise now that they own it, but in George Lucas' vision things like a "Gray Jedi" that can use both Light and Dark were always nonsensical.
