In this episode of Critique or Cynicism, I bring on Professor Juan Contreras, a Media Studies professor at the University of Akron, the general manager of the student-run television station ZTV, and a known lover of all things Star Wars to break down the portrayal of Luke Skywalker in the divisive episode 8, The Last Jedi. What is a character arc and was this the natural result of Luke’s? Or is it the assassination of a well-loved character?
