Better, but still ********.
That's not just any lightsaber. That's his father's lightsaber. Obi Wan gave it to him. He wielded it for years believing it was passed down to him from his good and noble father that died tragically. He used it to save his own life against the wampa and the AT-AT and who knows what else between ANH and ESB.
And then on Bespin, he used it to fight the man that killed his father. And then that man mutilated him. His hand was severed, forever. The lightsaber was lost. And in that moment he learned that the man who did it, this hateful vengeful man.....was actually indeed his father.
That was the single most traumatic moment of his life, both physically and emotionally. And it was all tied to that lightsaber. The lightsaber that fell to the gas core of Bespin along with his severed hand, and incinerated. Or at least, it should have. In the old novels, it was retrieved from the bowels of Cloud City. In the new movies, there's no explanation for anything, cause they're too lazy to even bother with it cause they know audiences are too stupid to care. In the almost 5 hours of sequel movies they never even attempted to address how that lightsaber, the one that Anakin used to kill younglings and fight Obi Wan on Mustafar that eventually ended up in a trunk on Tattooine ever survived destruction on Bespin.
Rey touched the saber and she was instantly connected to its history.
Luke had much stronger bond to this object. It was probably the most significant item he ever owned in his life, and he thought it was lost forever, some 30 years before. Surely he felt a much stronger jolt of Force connection than Rey did the moment he touched it.
So why would he hand it back to her without saying a word?
WHY THE **** WOULD HE TOSS IT OVER HIS SHOULDER LIKE AN EMPTY BEER CAN?????
