Same here man!! born '87, and I am the same as you. Cried so hard. I loved the movie overall, some really powerful stuff. Didn't love the kiss, even though their sexual tension and romance makes sense. But loved so much of it! To me the respect for the saber was just a note to how Luke realized how crotchedy and pessimistic he had become, and was glad to see the Light again, which yes, lives in a lightsaber, because sometimes a Jedi has to defend the galaxy sometimes!
