** Heck, as soon as Yoda destroys the tree, Luke instantly regresses from a stoic, grumpy Jedi Master to the stammering young hothead Yoda met on Dagobah all those years ago. You really never do seem completely grown up around your parents.

* When Laura Dern (who first knew she wanted to be an actor like her parents after seeing the original ''Star Wars'' at age 10) was first approached about the film, she was absolutely sure it couldn't really be about ''Star Wars'' and Rian Johnson was just using the name for some kind of metaphor. After he made clear it actually was ''Star Wars'' itself, she blurted out "Are you fucking kidding me?"

* Just before Paige drops the bombs, you can see that a couple of the bombs have slogans or graffiti written on one of them. One features (in Aurebesh) the slogan "[[RememberTheAlamo Han says hi]]", the other features a giant smiley face, making it a literal HappyFunBall.

** This exchange gets funnier knowing that Jakku, as a desert planet where Rey works as a scavenger to make ends meet, is like Luke's home planet of Tatooine. Recall Luke describing Tatooine to Threepio with, "If there's a bright center to the universe, you're on the planet that it's farthest from."

* One of Mark Hamill's other sci-fi roles outside of ''Star Wars'' was as Christopher "[[IronicNickname Maverick]]" Blair, a daring starfighter pilot in the ''Franchise/WingCommander'' games and animated series. As a nod to his character's origins in ''Film/ANewHope'', it was revealed at the start of ''Wing Commander IV: The Price of Freedom'' that Blair had [[CallToAgriculture retired to an arid backwater planet to be a farmer]], only to be recalled to fight in a new war. [[HilariousInHindsight Several decades later]], much of the plot of ''The Last Jedi'' has Skywalker retired to a backwater planet as Rey (tries) to recall him to fight in a new war.
