Meadow notes when was Ralph last appearance on the main show and weekend edition.  
Ralph has a very complicated relationship with this movie, but hermit Luke is some of his favorite stuff about the movie. In some ways this movie is his favorite of the sequel Trilogy movies. It has some very mature ideas that are also in line with Ralph's personal philosophy and politics. The original trilogy was steeped in the classic dualism: light and dark, but in the Prequels it works less well because the dark side is fueled by many things that aren't inherently bad like extreme emotion which would include things like extreme joy and attachment to people. It makes the Jedi feel very gray but like in a careless way. It seems like the filmmakers had a limited understanding of what made Star Wars good. This movie acknowledges that balance is necessary and not in the way that Anakin was prophesied to bring balance to the Force.
