Why Moff Gideon Was SCARED and Recognized Luke Skywalker! - Star Wars Explained

Moff Gideon sees Luke Also Moff Gideon: pissing noises

The Dark Troopers literaly had him programmed as their top priority target / threat and all turned around as soon as he boarded the vessel, just to confront and kill or at least delay him. That's how afraid the Empire is of Luke Skywalker.

Luke is probably the Republic’s Vader in any former imperial’s eyes who knows of him. To them he’s the guy who blew up the first Death Star, and was the last one to see Vader and Sidious. There are probably a bunch of rumors and legends exaggerating Luke too.

Did anyone notice how Boba was conveniently absence during the fight cause it would have been super awkward for Boba and Luke to meet again 😂

I love how nobody said Luke's name. Luke didn't even introduce himself. But when I saw Gideon's eyes go wide...the guy who seems to know everything about everyone....there was no doubt that at least one person in that room knew exactly who the cloaked figure was.

Bad canon writers: "We have no source material." Good canon writers: "We stand on the shoulders of giants."

Everybody gangsta until Anakin Junior show up in a hallway.

Plot twist: The Mandalorian is the actual sequel to the original trilogy

The way Luke Force Crushed that dark trooper was so epic!

“I’m Luke Skywalker, like Mark Hamill before me.”

I actually saw my dad cry when we watched this. He brought me up into watching and enjoying Star Wars as much as he did. And as we watched this at the end I did see him tear up and cry. I thought that it was because of the emotional moment between Din and Grogu, but when I asked he said he was just so happy to see the real and true Luke Skywalker the way he should've been handled. He didn't like any of the sequel trilogies or how they treated Luke and Mark. But when he saw this and saw Mark Hamill doing Luke the way he was meant to be he actually cried in happiness. In my entire life, I have only seen him cry 10 times, he hardly if not very rarely ever cries so that should say something about how special this episode really was if it was able to make him cry in happiness.

Mark Hamill was on instagram that night with "See anything good on TV lately?"

THIS episode reveals what Rian Johnson never understood about Luke.

The actor who played moff Gideon was definitely the best actor in the room on that scene he needs an award for that emotional performance.

Gideon was ready to kill himself out of fear. He knew one thing and that the Jedi approaching his bridge had the name, "Skywalker". He ain't messing with nobody related to Vader.

As far as any Imperial remnants know, Luke was taken to the Emperor's chamber in handcuffs by Vader, and was the only one to come out, dragging Vader with him. If you're an Imperial that's got to be terrifying!

This series is everything the last star wars trilogy was not.

“A friendly piece of advice, assume that I know everything” He definitely knows who Luke is.

“Don’t be too proud of this technological terror you’ve constructed. The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the Force.”

We didn’t see Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker here, we got to see Grand Master Skywalker
