I never thought the map leading to Luke was a plot hole. It\u2019s only weird if Luke is indeed hiding (which I don\u2019t think he is) AND he\u2019s the one who made it. But if Luke\u2019s in hiding and Lor San Tekka made the map based on things Luke told him and things he figured out himself, it works. Because that also explains why it took Tekka longer to find the Temple than Luke.<\/p>\n

And if Luke\u2019s not in hiding, but has a specific purpose on that island. Then it makes perfect sense that he made it and transmitted it, because he\u2019s ready to be found. Luke\u2019s a lot more patient than he used to be but.. exile? Really? Luke couldn\u2019t handle 19 years on Tattoine without whining about boredom. Luke couldn\u2019t stay on Dagobah more than a few months before leaving to help his friends. This guy is going to this island with a goal, and he is going to want a ride off the planet as soon as he\u2019s done. It is perfectly in character for Luke Skywalker to run off and send a map back to his family.<\/p>\n

And then people complain he sent it to Lor San Tekka instead of Leia, except\u2026 Tekka is shown in the movie giving the map to Leia\u2019s favorite pilot, so that he can take it to Leia. The guy is obviously a go-between for Luke and whoever Luke really wants the map to go to. Either it wasn\u2019t safe, or he didn\u2019t know Leia\u2019s (probably well-hidden) coordinates to send her a direct message.<\/p>\n

And finally, Artoo. Artoo is obviously where Luke GOT the map from. Artoo is also clearly where Luke meant for the map receiver to get the rest of the map from. Because who did Luke leave Artoo with? His sister. The same person Luke\u2019s go-between is sending the map to. What does BB-8 do when it gets to base with an incomplete map? Try to wake up Artoo. And in Rey\u2019s vision, when we see Luke, what is he doing? Putting his hand on Artoo, like he\u2019s telling her through the Force that this droid has the answer.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Honestly, it makes perfect sense. \u00a0He WANTS someone to come find him. \u00a0Just not in a way that will alert his telepathic enemies before he can finish whatever it is he\u2019s doing.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
