thats it. They're still so seething about how it 'destroyed the canon' or whatever. Its got to be some of the most weird form of movie brain worms that they just hated that movie instead of Revenge of Skywalker or whatever it was called, which was one of the worst movies of all time.
I remember the guy sitting next to me in the theater saying "the fuck is this shit?" when Luke died. I laughed. Then he looked at me for a second before going right back to his popcorn.

Luke's mom died from being too sad. Dying for no reason runs in his blood, as does killing younglings with a lightsaber.
He doesn't die. He becomes one with the force. Same as Yoda and Obiwan.

I am not saying that that was good storytelling, but I bet you did not expect that, and in the end, that's what counts.
… is it though?
of course, the only thing that matters in making a good story is the subversion of expectations.

Okay but how crazy would it have been if during the scene on the salt planet an asteroid hit the planet and killed everyone I bet you wouldn't have expected that at all
