#3. How did the whole galaxy see Luke's heroic sacrifice?
ATAT drivers were recording it on their cell phones and then spread it on social media, duh. :lol
Please explain. If your talking about the stable boy, then that was very old history about Rebellion and Empire that was probably told. And took many years to circulate.
Star Wars: The Last Jedi – 10 Revelations From Director Rian Johnson
1. Luke and Kylo's views are built to mirror each other
2. Luke's death had to have resonance
"He's taken himself out of the fight, he's sitting on that island in exile. I know the Luke I grew up with is not a coward, he's not sitting out there hiding, so I had to come up with a reason he was there that was active and positive, and something I could genuinely believe I could think in his shoes."
3. The stable boy ending almost wasn't the last scene
"it turns what Luke did from an act that saves 20 people into an act that inspires the galaxy. The notion that what we're setting up here is something big in the next chapter. And when Leia says, 'we have everything we need,' she's talking about everyone on the Falcon, but also about what we see next, which is we now have a galaxy that has seen this beacon of hope and is getting inspired to fight the good fight."
4. Kylo and Rey's connection is complicated for a reason
5. Rey's parentage was a clear choice
"I went through all the possibilities of who her parents could be. I made a list, with the upsides and downsides. There were two things about this option that made it feel right to me. Firstly. I like the idea that we're breaking out from the notion that the force is this genetic thing that you have to be tied to somebody to have. It's the 'anybody can be president' idea."
6. Carrie Fisher's death did not affect the story
7. Holdo's hyperspace attack reaches back to a line from the past
"I'm sure that a lot of fans had thought ever since Han was talking about if you don't get the calculations right you could go through a star...,"
8. Snoke's unceremonious death allowed for a new paradigm
"This is not Snoke's story."
9. Luke and co.'s expanded Force powers had to compete with what we've seen before
"I feel like we still offered a modicum of restraint, because we didn't have anyone pulling Star Destroyers out of the sky. And believe me, it came up when Luke came out on to the field, I was, like, 'should he wave his hand and all the walkers blow off like dust?' The things that are in there that are Force moments largely came out of the dramatic moments. (OMG - CONSPIRACY THEORY ALERT) But the Leia thing is an interesting example. It's something that Kathy kept bringing up, which I thought was interesting. She said, 'I've always been intrigued by what Luke says to Leia in Jedi in that she has the power inside her also, and why haven't we seen that?'
10. Johnson had to resist being a fanboy around Adrian Edmondson
You're right, it's clear what the epilog was meant to show. One of the key things of the movie that was repeated over and over and over again was hope.........no.
The kid clearly says Luke Skywalker and the "toys" he's using are meant to represent the FO.
Honestly, this was the biggest plot hole of the film for me, how the rest of the galaxy found out about Luke's sacrifice.
But again, the epilogue with the kids is clearly intended to show that the kids are talking about Crait, not some random thing Luke did some other time.
Sigh. This is the media age - the same kinda things came out during TFA. Rian's doing interviews and this is how it gets spun. Take the tinfoil hat off already, dude.It's funny how much "explaining" this movies needs. Almost as if they had to come up with excuses for the things that people didn't like about it. What's the term for that?....
3) Still wondering how the galaxy insta-learns about Luke's sacrifice.

. All this with grown-up men over a stupid Star Wars movie...
Don't forget to buy a plush porge for those near and dear to you this coming Valentine's day !
Nothing says I love you like ( whatever ) !!!
That's a misfire mate, if you read back you'll find that I really wasn't happy with the movie. What I meant that those who love it simply started to call those who don't haters and just call them names instead of doing civil discussion and acknowledging difference of opinion. You know, it's okay to hate on a hater. Mud-wrestling in plain English that I really don't feel like so, I guess that'll be one less person involved here.AAHHH!! So you admit it is stupid ?!?
Good !
Point made !
Game won !
I rest my case !
Just kidding !
I could not help it .

And remember kids when you are chasing down those pesky rebels always remember .....
WWTD?
what would Thrawn do ?
AMEN!This thread is slowly becoming much like one of those political discussions where there are a few self-appointed arbiters of truth and taste who preach against hate, exclusion and praise open-mindedness while being bullies and hateful against everyone who is not 100% in line with their views . All this with grown-up men over a stupid Star Wars movie...
I believe the end game is the restoration of the Galactic Empire.Is it ever mentioned or explained what the First Order as an entity actually wants? Or is it just some "dominate the galaxy" thing..?
We get the idea that galaxy found out through the little epilog with the kids. Word spreads fast in a galaxy far, far away...
