In TLJ it's to show that Luke has become an old coot just like Yoda



You could pretend that was the point and that might even be the point that RJ believed he was making - but of course that ignores that Yoda acting crazy and weird was to test Luke's character and see how Luke would respond to an obnoxious stranger doing rude things (to see if Luke had the character to become a jedi). RJ seemed to miss that point entirely with how he treated Yoda as well.

Ask yourself if that scene would have been appropriate if Leia was a Jedi hermit tracked down by Rey and you should have your answer for Luke as well.

The trying to drive her off thing may be RJ's point of view (if you can try to extract a POV from him) but it doesn't make one hell of a lot of sense after Luke left a map behind so he could be located.

Dude you thought blatant sea cow milk was jizz. Maybe, just maybe, you're the one who is reading it all wrong? Just a thought.

What if it wasn't space or Star Wars, and Luke was just the hot shot lawyer they were trying to convince to come back to help with a big case but he was tired of the rat race and retired to a farm and he squeezed off some fresh cow's milk to drink. Is it weird? Yes, but he's a fricking hermit, he's supposed to do weird shite. You guys sexualizing this and over analyzing this are out of your damn minds. If I were editing the movie would I cut those 5 seconds? Sure, but only because it's more gross than funny, I wouldn't be triggered by them, I might even see if the CGI artists could change the creature in a way to make it less gross and more funny. It should be able to make people laugh rather than cringe.
