Star wars Final Thoughts

So we just finished star wars the empire strikes back and now we post our thoughts on the movie as a hole. It seems to me that at the end of this movie or hero Luke is no longer an Innocent kid trying to impersonate his father. Now that he knows the truth, he knows the dangers of what he could become along with the since that he is the only one with even a small chance of taking out his father and atoning for his sins. I'm curious, if this was real life would the rebellion even trust Luke the off spring of one of there greatest enemies? (If it was my story; at this time I would have a lot of things happen differently.) Han Solo is gone betrayed buy Lando kalrizion but everybody still accepts Lando's help in the end. This action makes me question weather the characters of star wars are as close as everyone believes. Even Chewbacca Han's closest friend and co-pilot takes off with Lando in the end supposedly to look for Han, but still chewy should have ripped that bastards arm off. This is the one aspect of star wars that I never noticed but the story insists that you have to trust the main characters. As a kid I was blinded by a wonder and love for the characters but if Lucas had wanted to this could have been a very dark extremely scare universe. If Lucas had just capitalized on the mistrust of man instead of making his characters lovable he could of made them human. What woman of power would allow the man she loved to be killed then allow the guy who betrayed him to just do as he pleased? What rebellion with the new knowledge that they have there greatest enemy’s child in there ranks would allow him to live? How could Luke trust the teachings of people who were telling him lies? If all it took was a bomb, a light saber and a grappling hook to destroy those four legged walkers on the ice planet why in the hell did the rebellion lose that fight?
