He has another name there but he clearly has the emotional maturity and understanding of the depths of romance befitting of a monk raised to forego emotional attachments. His entire concept of romance is screaming the word LOVE at people, not unlike Anakin.
I like to think of that movie as a brief attempt at a secret romance that Obi-Wan attempted when he was young; a lesson he carried with him into his facepalm over Anakin's disastrous efforts.

My Tumblr. Currently side-by-side liveblogging Digimon Adventure, sub vs dub.Luke had the convenience of a Time Skip to explore more facets of the force. Three years of isolated training and he barely was able to pull his lightsaber out of snow and ice with extreme concentration. Even in a general sense he was a more confident fighter with how he took down the AT-AT after his speeder was shot down. It's the same thing between TESB and ROTJ, he got no additional training from Yoda in the Time Skip but using that greater foundation he was a much more confident Jedi. Time Skips are magical that way, same with a Training Montage.
you know, i really really want to see a force user have a lightsaber battle without even touching their own lightsaber.
does any force user have the finesse and endurance to simply make their lightsaber do all the fighting from a distance? And i'm not talking about the basic "throw lightsaber and pull it back" boomerang trick.
You'd think after thousands of years somebody (possibly someone with a very frail physical body) would have mastered the telekinesis aspect of force powers to do things like that.
The Jedi put prosthetic makers' kids through college.

- The prosthetics makers
- The bio-augmentation software
- The synthetic flesh
I wouldn't be surprised if the Jedi Order was a major financial supporter of prosthetics research, and the constant demand for better prostheses drove R&D forward. I mean, in the old EU, Cay Qel-Droma was a Gadgeteer Genius who managed to basically stick a droid arm he found on a battlefield onto his stump and call it a day.

"For all those whose cares have been our concern, the work goes on, the cause endures, the hope still lives, and the dream shall never die."There should be a Hook style Star Wars villain who deals out his prosthetic hand for gadgets as needed.
Legends had Force Technopathy or Mechu-deru, but it was mostly used by Darksiders.

See, you think Hook, my first thought was Doctor No
Or the bad guy from one Bruce Lee movie. Enter the Dragon?
My various fanfics.

You're overestimating the level of training Luke had. No, he wasn't training himself for the past two years. He was trying to find some way to train during those years, but he wasn't having success in that area.
Basically, he got that 30 seconds worth of training from Obi-Wan to "use the Force" and was able to wing it for three years after that, and then he knew he had to get training from Yoda in order to have a chance against Vader.
