Leia Knew that Luke wasn't there and Rey closing the door on Kylo was absolutely symbolic

    It was two great scenes, twins saying a last goodbye & two who couldn't move forward on peace terms.

    I recall something like that too... to me it sounded as if millions of shippers suddenly cried out in terror and then were suddenly silenced...

    But, those are the dice, and not Luke. Remember, they lingered for a while even after Luke left, they may have been more tangible than Luke for the reason that Luke wanted Leia to feel them in her hand. However, even Leia realizes they are not the real thing, because she leaves them behind. This demonstrates to the audience that Leia realizes that Luke is not actually there, she would never had left the dice behind if they were actually real.

    Also, another huge hint is that in the movie, if you watch the "duel" between Luke and Kylo, they make it a point to show that when Kylo digs in with his feet and steps, he is disturbing the surface of the ground and bringing out the red salt. Luke doesn't, his steps and his digging in does not disturb the ground, he leaves no footsteps, because there is nothing there to physically interact with the ground. Again, this is why he doesn't clash sabers with Kylo, he couldn't without giving up the charade that he wasn't actually there, and that this was all about giving Leia and crew time to escape.

    I think it's clear Luke's power allows him to interact physically when he needs to, just like Yoda showed that he could touch Luke in ghost form. The principles seem very similar, it's like Luke learned to be a force ghost without the need to die first.

    eh ~ doors close and they open. that's the nature of doors.
    if it serves the balance of the Force, these two are still connected.

    "Look to get in this girls pants, you have to kill her father figure, not once, but twice."

    "And if you think you are done, you're not okay? Try to kill her a few times, these Jedi hoes LOVE THAT."

    "Then, make her feel like she's worthless. Remind her that she's nothing. That only YOU can give her value or meaning."

    Stop, you're fogging up the windows.

    Let's not forget that you're just a lost boy. Murdered a man and had his entire village slaughtered, no biggie. Murdered your father? You're just confused. Take command of a regime that is guilty to multiple accounts of genocide of Trillions of beings in multiple systems? You're just trying to find your way. Own it. They looooove confidence.

    The difference being that she fell in love with him when he was a hero. She didn't meet him when he was already a murderous psychopath.

    Even though I'm okay with the prequels, Lucas sure made some weird decisions.

    The internet would have crashed and riots ensued!

    Well technically he's right because they met when he was 11 and wasn't slaughtering villages yet....
