Holy fuckballs this has over 60k views and rising! For real though guys thank you so much. I originally uploaded this onto RUclips just because a friend asked me to record Mom’s reaction and the file was too big to send anywhere. I never would have thought that it would have blown up like this. Mom and I were reading all the comments, although admittedly there’s a lot to keep up with now 😅 we think it’s incredible that so many people out around the world can relate to this same feeling. Every message is appreciated and super heartwarming. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for the kind words ❤️ Also just to touch up on a few things that have been mentioned- Mom has been working on quitting smoking for a while. It’s a slow and steady process though but there has been progress, I promise. It’s been a long time since either of us have watched the original trilogy so she admittedly forgot about Luke’s saber being green. Don’t worry I called her out on it too 😂. Finally as this was just supposed to be for some friends, I didn’t bother with optimally recording her reaction in landscape. If I ever do this again I’ll be sure to record it properly.
you don't owe anyone an explanation internet stranger. ya'll just keep being yourselves better than you was yesterday. its a blessing this has been shared with so many, kind and unkind alike. may the force be with you.
So we have parents filming their kids during the “I am your father” scene, and now kids filming their parents during Luke’s reveal in Mandalorian. Classic.
@@HelloThere-bj9rw Not really to everybody. There are actually losers out there who are buttmad that we haven't gotten over Luke Skywalker and moved on to Rey's Star Wars yet.
I had smelled something off with the sequels all the way from The Force Awakens 🤢. Don't need to have a problem with how they treated Luke in the sequels if I haven't watched those episodes! 😂
For those seven minutes, time stood still for me. I forgot about the crap this year brought, I forgot about my troubles and worries. For seven minutes I was a child again.
She doesnt remember that Luke had a green lightsaber, she doesnt know that "The Mandalorian" happens just 5 years after ROTJ, she doesnt really know that well that "Katano Woman", she doesnt know what CGI is, BUT that excitement, those tears, that emotion, her putting both of her hands in her mouth, that second grade reference, that OH MY GOD while trying to hold her heart when Luke reveals his face, that kiss to the screen when R2 appeared, all that is 100% PURE BLOOD STAR WARS FAN DNA, so it is clear is not about memorizing every detail about every SW book ever written what makes a SW fan a fan, it is what we saw in this vid, for a few minutes she became one with SW, and SW became one with her.
Makes me so emotional! I love seeing her reaction. The writers / directors of the sequels didn't know what they had. Now they do. That people form any race, creed, gender, or background can react to Luke in such an emotional way... its truly priceless.
Reading this literally made me tear up bro.. Thought u were gonna roast her... Instead you freaking rocked.. Hit on the nail exactly what all of us OGs felt with this episode. 🙏🙏🤟
Your mom crying and saying: "I don't know what cgi is, and he looks so young and she was in love with him when she was younger".. daaamn, she got me there.
I want to reminisce and be agreeing with the lot of you, but you all are the same sort who critique the new movies and destroy anyone's experience with it.
I only wish Kathleen Kennedy had put that kind of magic into the sequel trilogy. Rogue One felt magical to me despite how gritty it was. A lot of people felt like it was a boring film, but I feel like it gave us a glimpse into what it was like to be a rebel in the trenches, and the interactions with K2SO were hilarious at times. Plus, Vader slaughtering rebel scum😎😎😎
@@WitchKing-Of-Angmar If people liked the new sequels, you wouldn't even need to be making a comment like that. They are divisive for a reason. Kathleen Kennedy tried to suck the soul out of Star Wars and turn it into identity politics, plain and simple. The Disney sequels are nothing but a trilogy of Mary Sue fanfiction. These boys are bringing Star Wars back. This is how Star Wars is meant to be. This is the way.
I grew up with the prequels (don't worry I've watched the original trilogy and know its better) and when I was 5 my dad got me a commander Cody costume for Halloween (my older brother was rex) and ever since then I binged all the star wars media there is, I thought with the sequels star wars was over but then I heard of the mandolarian and I thought "great more Disney garbage" so I didn't watch seasons one when it was airing, my older brother (who is a bigger star wars fan then me) told me it's nothing like the sequels so before s2 came out I binged s1 and watched s2 when they were coming out. I didn't grow up with Luke but God dam did I had chills and a huge smile when I realized who it was, I thought it was going to be ashoka but nope it was mother fuckin LUKE SKYWALKER
The younger son casually throwing off the CGI comment, his mother not caring at all 'how' but 'who' it is representing while the tears flow and memories flood back.
"Luke Skywalker was everything!" apparently he still is...for millions of people. THIS is the Luke Skywalker we remember and always wanted to see again. :-)
I’m a 60 year old mom & grandma. When I saw the XWing, I thought Luke was definitely a possibility, but didn’t know if they’d go there. But once I saw the green light saber, there was no doubt! Tears streaming down my face, immediately! What an amazing episode!❤️
Im 50 years old a black man from the south bronx and just watching your mothers reaction made me cry all over again. She absolutely reacted just how many of us did. And you damn right it brought us all back to our childhood. She is the absolute best.
A lot of people critiqued the CGI, but to older people that can’t really tell the difference and saw the OG Star Wars on grainy television…this moment is magic.
Hah. Had a disagreement with a guy last week who absolutely insisted that literally everyone wanted to be Han, and zero people in all the world wanted to be Luke when Star Wars first came out.
I was there when Luke Skywalker first graced the screen in '77 and I was there when he graced the small screen in this episode... I'm 51 and I'll never forget this.
@@anarkydingo I mean, Luke is more powerful than her, and he proved it in The Last Jedi (seriously tho', he made a force projection across the whole galaxy and it was so perfect that even C3PO kinda felt it, and HE'S A DROID)
Your mom is a whole mood. The stress-cigarette, cussing at the screen, "somebody save the baby!", the screaming and then crying. Beautiful. I love it. She's an icon. 😍
Respect. My teenage kids were so confused by my personal reaction to this moment, tears streaming down my face. But they will never understand. They weren't there when Star Wars was new, when there had been nothing like this before, when Luke was the hero we all wanted to be. The absolute joy of a wide eyed eight year old kid staring at the cinema screen in disbelief in a time before mobile phones, with three channels on the TV and the internet did not exist. I knew as soon as I saw that green saber and at that moment I got so excited that the kids even looked up from their phones (!) to stare at me as if I was some kind of looney 😳. I feel sorry for them that they missed out on such a special time when it was all new. Great reaction from a kindred spirit....
When people release an avengers tv show 50 years from now and someone simply CGI dead Robert Downey Jr's face and show the return of Iron Man, they will remember you on this day.
My kid is mid 20s and Ive seen his peer group be rocked by events in their respective fandoms. They understand. But I'm 46. Gray as a wolf. I was 3 when ANH came out. Leia was my first princess. We learned girls can and should be just as brave as the boys. I saw RotJ in theaters when I was 8. "Luminous beings are we. Not this crude matter." set a child me on a lifetime spiritual path. When she said, "You don't understand, Luke Skywalker WAS EVERYTHING." that came from the core. We were all eight again in that room with Grogu. We heard X-wing and a million adults looked up from bills and the pandemic and loss. Four years of fear, almost defeated and at our rope's end... and by some miracle, here comes our hero Luke Fucking Skywalker wrecking shop to save "the Child" in all of us. I can't express what I felt any better than that. Just.... thank you Jon and Dave. I can honestly feel the Force is with us for real after all this time.
@@arkytiorcollective3095 When the X-Wing appeared, I moved from the couch to right in front of the TV and started to get all choked up in anticipation. By the time Luke pulled his hood back, I had eyes welled up with tears and was so caught up in the wonder and emotion of being one of the original SW fans from when it all started. My big brother’s claim to fame with me, after all these years, is “always remember who it was that took you to see Star Wars (ANH) at the multiplex”, lol.
I don't even care if she didn't fully understand the timeline. This was such a great and wholesome reaction. A true Star Wars fan for life with all the feels. Awesome reaction.
When she said “Luke Skywalker died” that shit hurt. The sequels killed Luke without showing anything like The Mandalorian did and people thought they’d never see their childhood hero on screen again. I feel like her going in thinking that way added a lot to her reaction
That's me exactly I owned all star wars movies as a kid had the special edition VHS with gold from Costco as a gift and that's what introduced me to it I really never knew the awesome gift I got back then till recently. I get all the emotions and excitement but I'm not so familiar what takes places where lol I'm just recently getting back into all the lore and really putting all the pieces together but gosh this Mandalorian show revived that inner Fandom so much even bought my daughter the two new Lego sets she loves Mandalorian and Grogu so much she is 7 and it's amazing knowing she will be a fan I will make sure she knows all the story though unlike me.
3:33 "Oh, my God, I love the f***ing Jedi. I always wanted to be a f***ing Jedi. I thought I was a Jedi, in second grade! We all did!" Well, in about 15 seconds, this lady completely dismantled Kathleen Kennedy's narrative of how Star Wars was a male-power fantasy. 7:18 "This just brought back my childhood. I can't believe this, it's Luke Skywalker."
I agree! I was 3 when ANH came out. Leia was my first princess. She taught us girls we can and should be just as brave and fight just as nobly as the boys. I'm 46. When I heard, "An x-wing.." I and a million other adults looked up from bills and stress and worry and saw our childhood hero, just the way we remembered him. A proper, full formed Jedi master Luke Fucking Skywalker wrecking shop in his peak power on his way to rescue "the Child" in all of us.
@@arkytiorcollective3095 This comment. My son just saw me crying watching this video and crying like a baby when I saw the episode. I finally got myself together and then I read your comment. I will send you the bill for my Kleenex. BEST comment ever.
The OP's comment is so profound and compelling -- particularly when combined with the first reply. It underscores how and why KK and RJ earned their reputations as deceitful wrecks (at least as it pertains to their involvement with SW). And then you have that one designated Twitter mob -- the vast majority of whom weren't even conceived before 'Return of the Jedi' was released, and yet they arrogantly talk down to Mark Hamill as if they know Luke better than he does. What a joke. If I recall correctly, they even demanded he apologize to Rian Johnson for completely disagreeing with how Luke was portrayed in TLJ.
Luke Skywalker is Hercules, he is Beowulf, he is king Arthur, he is a legendary fictional hero standing shoulder to shoulder with the other heroes in the pantheon of our greatest figures.
I was 5 when my dad took me to see Star Wars in the theater when it first came out. We saw the next 2 in the theater also. I’ve spent over half my life being in love with SW, the lore, the characters, Luke, and all the rest. I never wanted Barbies for Christmas. I wanted Star Wars action figures. I wore a Leia costume ALL. THE. TIME. When the movies came out on VHS my siblings and I watched them over and over and over again. When I had my own kids, I had the pleasure of raising them to love Star Wars. The sequels broke me. When KK said women couldn’t relate to Luke or male characters like him, my resentment towards her and that whole camp who took a story that has been a beloved tradition in my life since 1977 and treated it so ignorantly and carelessly, reached epic levels. I never thought I’d ever see my Luke again. This episode healed a scar that I didn’t even know was so deep until I saw Red 5 fly across that window. My brother and I started screaming and then we both began to sob. THIS was the Master Luke we’ve been waiting so long to see. THIS was the treatment he deserved. It was an honor to see it. I dont even care about the CGI. To see Luke’s face as I remember him as that little girl staring in awe at the movie screen was EVERYTHING.
I rewatch this video, probably once every couple of months, but this is the first time I read your comment. It’s perfect, I could have said the exact same.
This reaction is exactly what Favreau & Feloni were aiming for. It's astonishing that they actually pulled it off. Your mom said it perfectly: "Luke Skywalker is EVERYTHING."
"They brought back my childhood!" That's the thought of everyone over the age of 40 who saw the original trilogy for the first time in the theaters. :D I'm over 50 and I saw each original movie when they first came out in 1977, 1980, and 1983, respectively. Just hand over the keys to the SW galaxy to Filoni and Favreau. They know what they are doing.
Hell yes, IMAGINE what 7,8, and 9 would have been like if they made them??? The only thing is, I want them to be in charge of the shows too, and you can only spread yourself so thin
I'm 37. Didn't get the chance to see the movie in the theater but was watching them repeatedly at 3yo when my dad recorded them off of Showtime. I don't know life without the original trilogy. Luke was, and always will be, my hero.
Star Wars was the first movie I ever saw in the theater. I was just shy of 4 years old and I remember the experience vividly. I was sitting on my dad's shoulders while we waited in the line of moviegoers that had extended down the street and around the building. I remember being amazed at the idea that all these people were there to see the same movie we were going to see. I was hooked on movies from that day forward and Star Wars is the reason. I remember the excitement going to see episodes V and VI and being smitten with Yoda from the moment I saw him. I remember my brother and I creating a silly dance to the Imperial March that we still bust out to this day when we hear it. I remember my brother and I riding our bikes to the corner store and buying packs of SW trading cards with the awful sticks of pink bubble gum inside. I remember having a plush doll of Wicket the Ewok and all the original action figures - even the ones with the light sabers that were really just a piece of plastic that you would slide out of the figure's arm. I remember constantly trying to use the Force to move things in my room, even though it never worked. All of this felt like just yesterday when I saw Luke's face on The Mandalorian. What a feeling! All hail Favreau and Filoni. Thank you for blessing us. It's a glorious time to be a Star Wars fan.
They damn sure do. They gave Boba Fett and Luke Skywalker the platform to showcase themselves that we were craving for when we were kids and ended the series perfectly.
Lost my job, getting evicted, lost my relationship, and my heart is in the darkest place it's ever been. And I was able to feel the joy through the screen, and share in it. Dude. Thank you and your mom.
I'm kinda in a similar state riding out this Covid thing solo. This show and all the fans through their comments and reactions have been rays of sunshine through storm clouds. Hang in there Bro: "this too shall pass!"
I know what I wrote below is unsolicited & not really my place but I can really relate to the pain, the stress and the hopelessness that (I imagine) you are struggling with & feeling at the moment. The following may come off weird but hear me out... I don't know why but after reading your comment something compelled me to click on your page which resulted in me watching a couple of your videos and I felt further compelled to write this comment. You are incredibly talented, you have a gorgeous voice and to say you have 'the look' would obviously be an understatement... you have such great potential but like most people you just need someone, regardless of whether it's a friend or partner, that who be in your corner to push & motivate you, will advocate & fight for you and will stand by you & support thru the good and the bad. The person you were in a relationship with was not that person but is the one who is missing out. One important thing is to always remind yourself "this too shall pass" & "nothing lasts forever". Yeah, they might sound corny & cliche but it's in our darkest times when we can truly experience the power of those words. Just as a side note - personally, the 'serenity prayer' has always helped me during times when life felt overwhelming and when things were a mess/chaotic. 🙋♂️😊
This is a glimpse into the emotional attachments that luke brought to so many people. If Disney ever wonders why their trilogy was so badly received and why their treatment of luke in those films was so despised, look at this.. you can't play with people's emotions. He meant so much to so many people and to see him depicted that way was such a let down. Jon Favreau gets it. 7 minutes of Sweet redemption.
It was mostly Dave Filoni that brought the whole story of the mandalorian together. (he made the animated star wars) without Filoni none of this most likely would've existed.
Personally, I've never like han. He's just an ok character. Luke has always been the character I liked, behind obiwan. I even liked Anakin more than han.
She says "there is only one, just one that powerful and he died" She thought The Mandalorian is after the sequels That makes her surprise so big. This video is pure gold
I mean they do say-That baby Yoda is not Yoda but Grogu-Yea Mandalorian is after the original trilogy-Or did you mean after the sequels of the trilogy??
I sometimes think that the creators of our modern 'myths' forget just how much their stories affect us :). I'm an Englishman nearing retirement age, so pretty stoic on the whole, and I unashamedly wept to see the hero of my childhood getting the screen-time he deserved rather than the travesty that was the Disney-verse Sequels. Hopefully Lucas can get those things erased from canon once and for all. EDIT: And tell your mom that her reaction made me cry all over again and that I understand completely ... as she said, Luke Skywalker is *everything* ... and R2 too :D
The title of this episode is called "The Rescue".... but its not really about saving Baby Yoda. It's about saving Star Wars and its legacy. Which is exactly what Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni just did with this episode. Its amazing watching this woman who obviously was scorned by the sequel trilogy get her hope slowly resurrected during this 8 minute video. Helped with a little guidance from her son giving her the timeline. #Family LOVED THIS REACTION!
Earlier this year, around July, I lost my mom. She was the reason I got into the whole star wars universe. Luke was her favorite, i wish she would have been able to see this and I see her reaction as well. In a way I'm living through you mom what I believe mine would have been like. It was a bitter sweet moment when I saw the finale, couldn't help but to think about her and how she would have lost her shit seeing it. Heh. Thanks for sharing this man.
I'm so sorry to hear of your pain. If I can help in anyway, if you want to talk, just reach out. My dad used to say (he passed in 2018) the only way to deal with grief is to just go through it - advice that got me through his sudden passing. So feel the feelings, let them wash over you, and keep those happy memories of your mom close to your heart.
Your mom is precious, and I reacted the same exact way. “It’s fucking Luke!”, I screamed 10 times, and “It’s R2!”, another 10 times. Tears for me also, and she’s right, we were all Jedi back then.
Holy fuck balls!!! She's so my twin! Except I'm black...hahaha! My kid filmed me watching the finale too and my language was just the same! I LOVE LUKE! And cried too when Mando took off his helmet... Awwww, twins❤
"Luke Skywalker was _everything._ They just brought back my childhood. _I can't believe that's Luke Skywalker-_ *OH MY GOD! THERE'S R2-D2!!!!"* LOL! love it!
It’s so nice to see ladies of her generation being represented, and talking about wanting to be a Jedi in second grade. I saw Star Wars in the 80s and my favorite character of all time was Luke Skywalker. I’ve nothing against all the men and their happiness, but we ladies were there, too, and I think a lot of people forget that.
So true luke has been my favourite character since I was 7 my dad got all of us into star wars when we were kids and I was heart broken after the new trilogy depressed despite what there tried to convince us the original characters still rule true star wars fans hart's this women's reaction says it all LUKE SKYWALKER IS THE BEST🥺✊💚💙💚💙
I agree! This video should go viral. Just to show how Star Wars and Mark Hamill on the major impact they made on a generation who were lucky enough to see the original trilogy 40+ years ago, and how they're still tremendously loved and always will be.
He already knows how every OT SW fan love him, he is the one that knows the most how important Luke Skywalker was for everyone. And that's why everyone adore him, because he always care. So maybe he already watch this and much more.
That part where she said "Its not like its luke skywalker, they're not gonna save anything". That right there is an OG Star Wars fan who got burned on the sequels. So her reaction later on is what many experienced and that was the Star Wars kid in them coming back to life after the sequels killed that little kid in them.
You should see Mark Hammil's "reaction" to this scene. Its full of great lines, like "Dont get your hopes up, Mark, its still Disney," "My expectations have been subverted" and "Remember, the sequels are not canon."
@@ssfbob456 Mark Hamill being sardonic and cheekily slamming what they did to Luke in the sequels is glorious to behold. He knows. He gets it. Even more than the fans do.
@@mish375 I still remember him talking shit on Last Jedi, it was glorious. I'm honestly surprised they convinced him to come back, seemed like he was pretty much over Disney.
07:10 "Luke Skywalker was EVERYTHING!" Always has been, my dear. I wish I still could be this passionate about movies and TV shows. I truly envy her and cried watching her.
Shit I was born in 82, didn't see the movies proper until about 93, and I'm boycotting all Disney until the Sequels are retgonned. But....I wanna savor the moment with my people. For a moment everyo one who truly loves Star Wars is my people, and it's making 2020 worth it, which is damn thing to say.
70s & 80s babies have such a connection to the first 3 movies......I wish you young folks were alive to experience it back in the day. I'm happy to see over 40 years later you all continue to support the legacy of Star Wars. I'm 47 years old and was in tears when I saw that green saber and gloved hand....and then for R2 to show up. The nostalgia really does warm the heart if you were a child back then. The Mandalorian Season 2 was just awesome!!
"It's not Luke Skywalker it's not like they're gonna save anything!" This was the moment I knew this was gonna be a great reaction. The reactions to this episode are all great, but seeing people who grew up as the original trilogy was coming out react to it is something truly special. Thanks for sharing!
It was such a moment of what Tolkien calls eucatastrophe - in some ways her reaction is all the more powerful because she was assuming Luke was dead at this point in the timeline.
I love your mom so much. “Luke Skywalker was everything.” I felt that to my core. He really is. It was super sweet watching her relive her childhood. I wish I could hug her. 💜💜
My goodness...she's so pure. Protect her at all costs. This is such a moment for her. To relive her childhood, so priceless. As someone who just turned 40 and being a fan my entire life, I can totally relate. This is why I love videos like this one. May the force be with everyone...always.
I watched the last episode three days ago with my 50-something wife. Our youngest (19) came in to watch our reaction. Watching your mom, gave me an even more emotional response than seeing it first-hand - and that’s saying a lot. In my opinion, Favreau and Filoni managed to restore our faith in Star Wars, giving us the story fans deserve. Your mother's response only makes that opinion more certain. Good on you for sharing this.
Holy fuckballs this has over 60k views and rising! For real though guys thank you so much. I originally uploaded this onto RUclips just because a friend asked me to record Mom’s reaction and the file was too big to send anywhere. I never would have thought that it would have blown up like this.

I can not believe they found a way to save Star Wars and we all sneered this moment and never knew it, tears of joy...
Amen.
That damn beautiful
For real. This episode was everything.
She doesnt remember that Luke had a green lightsaber, she doesnt know that "The Mandalorian" happens just 5 years after ROTJ, she doesnt really know that well that "Katano Woman", she doesnt know what CGI is, BUT that excitement, those tears, that emotion, her putting both of her hands in her mouth, that second grade reference, that OH MY GOD while trying to hold her heart when Luke reveals his face, that kiss to the screen when R2 appeared, all that is 100% PURE BLOOD STAR WARS FAN DNA, so it is clear is not about memorizing every detail about every SW book ever written what makes a SW fan a fan, it is what we saw in this vid, for a few minutes she became one with SW, and SW became one with her.
Yeah she’s more of a fan than some retard who binge read Wookiepedia.
Why are all these comments making me sooo emotional the tears can’t stop rolling down my face
Makes me so emotional! I love seeing her reaction. The writers / directors of the sequels didn't know what they had. Now they do. That people form any race, creed, gender, or background can react to Luke in such an emotional way... its truly priceless.
She must know what CGI is been around since Tron or maybe a year before
And must know this is after ROTJ
Reading this literally made me tear up bro.. Thought u were gonna roast her... Instead you freaking rocked.. Hit on the nail exactly what all of us OGs felt with this episode. 🙏🙏🤟
Someone send this to Mark Hamill!
I'm sure he's seen it. He made a post about loving all of the reaction videos.
@M to see her reaction not the scene lol
I sent this to his instagram lol
Your mom crying and saying: "I don't know what cgi is, and he looks so young and she was in love with him when she was younger".. daaamn, she got me there.
And that's why nothing can come close to the thing that Lucas has created
First minute, your mom smoking as a sailor, cursing as a trucker. By the end, sobbing and crying out of joy as a child. That is magic.
I couldn't agree more. It's a beautiful moment to see the difference and it is like night and day.
I want to reminisce and be agreeing with the lot of you, but you all are the same sort who critique the new movies and destroy anyone's experience with it.
I only wish Kathleen Kennedy had put that kind of magic into the sequel trilogy. Rogue One felt magical to me despite how gritty it was.

Hah. Had a disagreement with a guy last week who absolutely insisted that literally everyone wanted to be Han, and zero people in all the world wanted to be Luke when Star Wars first came out.
Those were crazy times when I thought of myself as a Jedi in 2nd grade. I am currently 20 and a Sith Lord these days.

With R2.
Your mom is a whole mood. The stress-cigarette, cussing at the screen, "somebody save the baby!", the screaming and then crying. Beautiful. I love it. She's an icon. 😍
Respect. My teenage kids were so confused by my personal reaction to this moment, tears streaming down my face. But they will never understand. They weren't there when Star Wars was new, when there had been nothing like this before, when Luke was the hero we all wanted to be. The absolute joy of a wide eyed eight year old kid staring at the cinema screen in disbelief in a time before mobile phones, with three channels on the TV and the internet did not exist. I knew as soon as I saw that green saber and at that moment I got so excited that the kids even looked up from their phones (!) to stare at me as if I was some kind of looney 😳. I feel sorry for them that they missed out on such a special time when it was all new. Great reaction from a kindred spirit....
How amazing is it that they managed to keep this secret in this day and age for over a YEAR. Reactions: Priceless.
I know RIGHT
When people release an avengers tv show 50 years from now and someone simply CGI dead Robert Downey Jr's face and show the return of Iron Man, they will remember you on this day.
My kid is mid 20s and Ive seen his peer group be rocked by events in their respective fandoms. They understand.
But I'm 46. Gray as a wolf. I was 3 when ANH came out. Leia was my first princess. We learned girls can and should be just as brave as the boys. I saw RotJ in theaters when I was 8. "Luminous beings are we. Not this crude matter." set a child me on a lifetime spiritual path.
When she said, "You don't understand, Luke Skywalker WAS EVERYTHING." that came from the core. We were all eight again in that room with Grogu. We heard X-wing and a million adults looked up from bills and the pandemic and loss. Four years of fear, almost defeated and at our rope's end... and by some miracle, here comes our hero Luke Fucking Skywalker wrecking shop to save "the Child" in all of us. I can't express what I felt any better than that. Just.... thank you Jon and Dave. I can honestly feel the Force is with us for real after all this time.
@@arkytiorcollective3095 When the X-Wing appeared, I moved from the couch to right in front of the TV and started to get all choked up in anticipation. By the time Luke pulled his hood back, I had eyes welled up with tears and was so caught up in the wonder and emotion of being one of the original SW fans from when it all started. My big brother’s claim to fame with me, after all these years, is “always remember who it was that took you to see Star Wars (ANH) at the multiplex”, lol.
I don't even care if she didn't fully understand the timeline. This was such a great and wholesome reaction. A true Star Wars fan for life with all the feels. Awesome reaction.
When she said “Luke Skywalker died” that shit hurt. The sequels killed Luke without showing anything like The Mandalorian did and people thought they’d never see their childhood hero on screen again. I feel like her going in thinking that way added a lot to her reaction
To be fair its not the simplest timeline either
This proof even casual fans from back in the day still & always loves the real & true badass Luke Skywalker.
That's me exactly I owned all star wars movies as a kid had the special edition VHS with gold from Costco as a gift and that's what introduced me to it I really never knew the awesome gift I got back then till recently. I get all the emotions and excitement but I'm not so familiar what takes places where lol I'm just recently getting back into all the lore and really putting all the pieces together but gosh this Mandalorian show revived that inner Fandom so much even bought my daughter the two new Lego sets she loves Mandalorian and Grogu so much she is 7 and it's amazing knowing she will be a fan I will make sure she knows all the story though unlike me.
Lol 5 episodes ago we thought that was baby Yoda 🤣🤣🤣
She was so stressed about the child she lit a cig halfway through
Them maternal instincts were kicking in lmfao
"Save the baby"...LoL.. so sweet
@Sith Jawa You mean Teddy? In Season 2 they said he was found unharmed 17 miles away from the explosion.
“Skywalker was everything!”

Well, in about 15 seconds, this lady completely dismantled Kathleen Kennedy's narrative of how Star Wars was a male-power fantasy.
7:18 "This just brought back my childhood. I can't believe this, it's Luke Skywalker."
I agree! I was 3 when ANH came out. Leia was my first princess. She taught us girls we can and should be just as brave and fight just as nobly as the boys. I'm 46. When I heard, "An x-wing.." I and a million other adults looked up from bills and stress and worry and saw our childhood hero, just the way we remembered him. A proper, full formed Jedi master Luke Fucking Skywalker wrecking shop in his peak power on his way to rescue "the Child" in all of us.
@@arkytiorcollective3095 This comment.
My son just saw me crying watching this video and crying like a baby when I saw the episode. I finally got myself together and then I read your comment. I will send you the bill for my Kleenex. BEST comment ever.
The OP's comment is so profound and compelling -- particularly when combined with the first reply. It underscores how and why KK and RJ earned their reputations as deceitful wrecks (at least as it pertains to their involvement with SW).
And then you have that one designated Twitter mob -- the vast majority of whom weren't even conceived before 'Return of the Jedi' was released, and yet they arrogantly talk down to Mark Hamill as if they know Luke better than he does. What a joke. If I recall correctly, they even demanded he apologize to Rian Johnson for completely disagreeing with how Luke was portrayed in TLJ.
"I always wanted to be a fucking Jedi"
Legit gave me tears
Luke Skywalker is Hercules, he is Beowulf, he is king Arthur, he is a legendary fictional hero standing shoulder to shoulder with the other heroes in the pantheon of our greatest figures.
Honestly, in a couple thousand of years I wonder what anthropologists will think of the Star Wars stories.
Youre God damn right
So true. These are our Modern Myths, our Greek tragedies & Triumphs.
TOTALLY!
And if you look up what happened to King Arthur, you might understand the Last Jedi a little better.
"I want to be a fucking Jedi!"
It's a dream that will never die no matter how old you are
I was 5 when my dad took me to see Star Wars in the theater when it first came out. We saw the next 2 in the theater also. I’ve spent over half my life being in love with SW, the lore, the characters, Luke, and all the rest. I never wanted Barbies for Christmas. I wanted Star Wars action figures. I wore a Leia costume ALL. THE. TIME. When the movies came out on VHS my siblings and I watched them over and over and over again. When I had my own kids, I had the pleasure of raising them to love Star Wars.
The sequels broke me. When KK said women couldn’t relate to Luke or male characters like him, my resentment towards her and that whole camp who took a story that has been a beloved tradition in my life since 1977 and treated it so ignorantly and carelessly, reached epic levels.
I never thought I’d ever see my Luke again.
This episode healed a scar that I didn’t even know was so deep until I saw Red 5 fly across that window. My brother and I started screaming and then we both began to sob.
THIS was the Master Luke we’ve been waiting so long to see. THIS was the treatment he deserved. It was an honor to see it. I dont even care about the CGI. To see Luke’s face as I remember him as that little girl staring in awe at the movie screen was EVERYTHING.
Thank you for sharing -- it was a beautiful read.
I rewatch this video, probably once every couple of months, but this is the first time I read your comment. It’s perfect, I could have said the exact same.

This reaction is exactly what Favreau & Feloni were aiming for. It's astonishing that they actually pulled it off.
Your mom said it perfectly: "Luke Skywalker is EVERYTHING."
she said it best. "LUKE SKYWALKER WAS EVERYTHIIIIING!"
"They brought back my childhood!" That's the thought of everyone over the age of 40 who saw the original trilogy for the first time in the theaters. :D I'm over 50 and I saw each original movie when they first came out in 1977, 1980, and 1983, respectively. Just hand over the keys to the SW galaxy to Filoni and Favreau. They know what they are doing.
Hell yes, IMAGINE what 7,8, and 9 would have been like if they made them??? The only thing is, I want them to be in charge of the shows too, and you can only spread yourself so thin
I feel the same way.
I'm 37. Didn't get the chance to see the movie in the theater but was watching them repeatedly at 3yo when my dad recorded them off of Showtime. I don't know life without the original trilogy. Luke was, and always will be, my hero.
Star Wars was the first movie I ever saw in the theater. I was just shy of 4 years old and I remember the experience vividly. I was sitting on my dad's shoulders while we waited in the line of moviegoers that had extended down the street and around the building. I remember being amazed at the idea that all these people were there to see the same movie we were going to see. I was hooked on movies from that day forward and Star Wars is the reason. I remember the excitement going to see episodes V and VI and being smitten with Yoda from the moment I saw him. I remember my brother and I creating a silly dance to the Imperial March that we still bust out to this day when we hear it. I remember my brother and I riding our bikes to the corner store and buying packs of SW trading cards with the awful sticks of pink bubble gum inside. I remember having a plush doll of Wicket the Ewok and all the original action figures - even the ones with the light sabers that were really just a piece of plastic that you would slide out of the figure's arm. I remember constantly trying to use the Force to move things in my room, even though it never worked. All of this felt like just yesterday when I saw Luke's face on The Mandalorian. What a feeling! All hail Favreau and Filoni. Thank you for blessing us. It's a glorious time to be a Star Wars fan.
They damn sure do. They gave Boba Fett and Luke Skywalker the platform to showcase themselves that we were craving for when we were kids and ended the series perfectly.
Your mom represents all of us old lady Star Wars geeks.
Truth!
Agreed!
I was feeling it.
And old men.
Damn right.
All ages of all cultures went age 8 at this episode. It was so epic.
"Luke Skywalker was everything!"
It's TRUE . . . All of it
Lost my job, getting evicted, lost my relationship, and my heart is in the darkest place it's ever been. And I was able to feel the joy through the screen, and share in it. Dude. Thank you and your mom.
I'm kinda in a similar state riding out this Covid thing solo. This show and all the fans through their comments and reactions have been rays of sunshine through storm clouds. Hang in there Bro: "this too shall pass!"
Hope everything gets better
Hang in there man.
Wasn't mean to be my friend.

I know what I wrote below is unsolicited & not really my place but I can really relate to the pain, the stress and the hopelessness that (I imagine) you are struggling with & feeling at the moment. The following may come off weird but hear me out... I don't know why but after reading your comment something compelled me to click on your page which resulted in me watching a couple of your videos and I felt further compelled to write this comment. You are incredibly talented, you have a gorgeous voice and to say you have 'the look' would obviously be an understatement... you have such great potential but like most people you just need someone, regardless of whether it's a friend or partner, that who be in your corner to push & motivate you, will advocate & fight for you and will stand by you & support thru the good and the bad. The person you were in a relationship with was not that person but is the one who is missing out.
One important thing is to always remind yourself "this too shall pass" & "nothing lasts forever". Yeah, they might sound corny & cliche but it's in our darkest times when we can truly experience the power of those words.
Just as a side note - personally, the 'serenity prayer' has always helped me during times when life felt overwhelming and when things were a mess/chaotic.
🙋♂️😊
This is a glimpse into the emotional attachments that luke brought to so many people. If Disney ever wonders why their trilogy was so badly received and why their treatment of luke in those films was so despised, look at this.. you can't play with people's emotions. He meant so much to so many people and to see him depicted that way was such a let down. Jon Favreau gets it. 7 minutes of Sweet redemption.
100%
Well said well said
Sigh. What you said couldn't be truer. If only...
It was mostly Dave Filoni that brought the whole story of the mandalorian together. (he made the animated star wars) without Filoni none of this most likely would've existed.

Personally, I've never like han. He's just an ok character. Luke has always been the character I liked, behind obiwan. I even liked Anakin more than han.
Has shone in Ep V, but in return of the jedi, Luke rocked. I thinks that's why Harrison Ford wanted Han to die in EP 6.
She says "there is only one, just one that powerful and he died" She thought The Mandalorian is after the sequels That makes her surprise so big. This video is pure gold
I also thought it was post-sequels
@@memistcentral2044 you have much to learn
I mean they do say-That baby Yoda is not Yoda but Grogu-Yea Mandalorian is after the original trilogy-Or did you mean after the sequels of the trilogy??
There are no sequels. Not Canon. That was a temporary abomination best forgotten.
I thought it was post sequel too and was like how is he alive it can't be him and it was him
I sometimes think that the creators of our modern 'myths' forget just how much their stories affect us :). I'm an Englishman nearing retirement age, so pretty stoic on the whole, and I unashamedly wept to see the hero of my childhood getting the screen-time he deserved rather than the travesty that was the Disney-verse Sequels. Hopefully Lucas can get those things erased from canon once and for all.
EDIT: And tell your mom that her reaction made me cry all over again and that I understand completely ... as she said, Luke Skywalker is *everything* ... and R2 too :D
The title of this episode is called "The Rescue".... but its not really about saving Baby Yoda. It's about saving Star Wars and its legacy. Which is exactly what Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni just did with this episode. Its amazing watching this woman who obviously was scorned by the sequel trilogy get her hope slowly resurrected during this 8 minute video. Helped with a little guidance from her son giving her the timeline. #Family
LOVED THIS REACTION!
Earlier this year, around July, I lost my mom. She was the reason I got into the whole star wars universe. Luke was her favorite, i wish she would have been able to see this and I see her reaction as well. In a way I'm living through you mom what I believe mine would have been like. It was a bitter sweet moment when I saw the finale, couldn't help but to think about her and how she would have lost her shit seeing it. Heh. Thanks for sharing this man.
I'm so sorry to hear of your pain. If I can help in anyway, if you want to talk, just reach out. My dad used to say (he passed in 2018) the only way to deal with grief is to just go through it - advice that got me through his sudden passing. So feel the feelings, let them wash over you, and keep those happy memories of your mom close to your heart.
I’m so sorry for your loss

Yes sir
Yep. Im guilty.. balled like a baby. Was Awsome!!
I screamed at 5am does that count
When she blows a kiss to R2..... i teared up.
It’s so nice to see ladies of her generation being represented, and talking about wanting to be a Jedi in second grade. I saw Star Wars in the 80s and my favorite character of all time was Luke Skywalker. I’ve nothing against all the men and their happiness, but we ladies were there, too, and I think a lot of people forget that.
And for those 7 minutes, we were all united.
priceless, Mark Hamill needs to see this himself and understand what he means to us.
So true luke has been my favourite character since I was 7 my dad got all of us into star wars when we were kids and I was heart broken after the new trilogy depressed despite what there tried to convince us the original characters still rule true star wars fans hart's this women's reaction says it all LUKE SKYWALKER IS THE BEST🥺✊💚💙💚💙
I agree! This video should go viral. Just to show how Star Wars and Mark Hamill on the major impact they made on a generation who were lucky enough to see the original trilogy 40+ years ago, and how they're still tremendously loved and always will be.
He already knows how every OT SW fan love him, he is the one that knows the most how important Luke Skywalker was for everyone.
And that's why everyone adore him, because he always care.
So maybe he already watch this and much more.
Mark Hamill was part of the production...
Mark Hamill: "I know"
That part where she said "Its not like its luke skywalker, they're not gonna save anything". That right there is an OG Star Wars fan who got burned on the sequels. So her reaction later on is what many experienced and that was the Star Wars kid in them coming back to life after the sequels killed that little kid in them.
wow i never thought of it that....
exactly....a new hope, rescued
You should see Mark Hammil's "reaction" to this scene. Its full of great lines, like "Dont get your hopes up, Mark, its still Disney," "My expectations have been subverted" and "Remember, the sequels are not canon."

May the force be with everyone...always.
I watched the last episode three days ago with my 50-something wife. Our youngest (19) came in to watch our reaction. Watching your mom, gave me an even more emotional response than seeing it first-hand - and that’s saying a lot. In my opinion, Favreau and Filoni managed to restore our faith in Star Wars, giving us the story fans deserve. Your mother's response only makes that opinion more certain. Good on you for sharing this.
Thank you guys for all of the positive comments! Mom had a riot seeing that 500 people have seen this lmao.
Your mom is adorable!!
Thank you very much!!!
This sweet genuine reaction brought me to tears. Loved her reaction.
Brought me to tears. I just shared this on my fb. Trying to make her viral!
i love the reaction of your mother :D may the force be with her
You’re mom is great. She feels like the rest of us 40 somethings felt. Star Wars was HUGE in the 80’s.
And 70s.
@@cacogenicist And 90s
Facts est 1981
I’ve been a fan since 77’ and I was giddy as soon as I saw the X wing! Then I was crying of course. It was the Luke I remembered and loved
Laaate 40 somethings...
I have waited 40 years for this.
When she kisses her fingertips and touches R2 through the screen . . . 💔.
