He was put thru all that training and working out for The Force Awakens, obviously with the intention of being much more active in Last Jedi, yet we're teased a dual pretty much, but all Luke does is just dodge a few swings from Kylo. I was expecting a full dual akin to ROTJ. Mark was able to drop 50lbs while in his 60s just to return as Luke. And he clearly looks in good shape and everything at 66. I wouldn't expect him to be flipping and twirling with his lightsaber, but he could have easily done another dual against Kylo similar to ROTJ

His Luke Skywalker character was screwed over. I can see now why he once commented that in talking to Rian Johnson about his character in TLJ, he said "Wait a minute. I don't think Luke would do that!"

In ROTJ Luke was this character who searched for and tried to pull out the little Lightside that he saw in father Darth Vader. And tried to save him based on that. But in TLJ he contemplates killing his nephew because he senses some Darkside in him. It's a total 180 degree turn in character. And then they just had him play a retreating distraction to Kylo. And be a "sounding board" to Rey's MarySue awesomeness.
