What does /tv/ think of the Bigger Luke Hypothesis?

>the theory that in the original Star Wars films there is a slightly larger version of Luke
Skywalker (or Mark Hamill as some Bigger Luke Theorists would posit) alongside regular Luke Skywalker.

He's Snoke.
The Bigger Luke became Snoke.
Or alternatively The Smaller Luke became Snoke and made his hologram big to compensate.

Is this supposed to be a parody of fan theories?

Why do they assume Luke gets bigger? Where does the idea come from?

>Bigger Luke, commonly abbreviated to BL, or more uncommonly BgL, is the slightly larger manifestation of Luke Skywalker that is said to appear in certain scenes of the original Star Wars Trilogy, contrasting to Regular Luke.

The appearance of Bigger Luke in a particular scene is generally, but not always, judged relative to the height of Han Solo, and as such Han is the primary go-to frame of reference amongst Bigger Luke Theorists. Because of this, "No Han Pics"(commonly abbreviated to NHP) are generally discouraged, as it is very difficult to determine Luke's height without Han Solo as a constant frame of reference. Whilst uncommon, the use of other Star Wars characters to judge Luke's height are not unheard of. The second most common character to judge if Bigger Luke is in the scene or not has generally been Obi-Wan, followed closely by Princess Leia. The activity of combing the original Star Wars trilogy for instances of Bigger Luke is known as Luking.

>A theory introduced circa 2003 which has yet to gain significant ground claims that it is possible that it is not Luke who changes size between different shots but, in fact, everything else around Luke changes size, including the characters. Much like the theories surrounding Mark Hamill's car accident in early 1977, it is assumed that the scenes with smaller sets and characters were chronologically filmed after the other scenes. The presumed reason for this was due to budget cuts on the set due to the 1970's Oil Crisis, and therefore all set pieces and props were cut slightly smaller to save money. The reason as to why all other characters besides Luke are slightly shorter can be chocked up to slight malnutrition, as due to the crisis food was prioritized for the star of the film.

>This theory has never been taken seriously by any significant number of Bigger Luke Theorists, who have always considered it far too outlandish. It is generally believed that the proponent of this theory was joking - or even trying to poison the well.

>On or around June 23rd, 1998, a man who chose to identify only as "Samuel" first showed up in a Bigger Luke IRC chat. After partaking in rather run-of-the-mill discussions pertaining to Mark Hamill's alleged slightly larger double, Samuel began to claim he had worked for the CIA. He stated that he had important and vital information pertaining to the Bigger Luke hypothesis.

>He claimed that in the early 1970's the CIA had acquired a set of experimental lenses from the re-entry capsule of a Russian "Zenit"-type recon satellite, believed to have been recovered from off the coast of Guam. The lenses were apparently designed to magnify images to such an extent that they could take extremely detailed and high-resolution photographs of American military bases. The way they were manufactured was kept secret, yet apparently utilized an advanced, theoretically untested technology that was never used before.

>Samuel claimed that samples of these lenses were modified and intentionally swapped with the regular lenses of the Panavision PSR 35mm camera that was being used to film A New Hope. He also claimed that he could not determine whether or not the crew working on A New Hope was aware of this, but he believed it was unlikely most of them knew. If any of them knew, he claimed it was likely they were sworn to secrecy.

>Luking, a portmanteau of "Luke" and "Looking", is the term used to describe the act of meticulously watching the original Star Wars trilogy and scanning for instances of Bigger Luke.
I learned a new verb today.
>>
>It may be possible that Luke was angered by Leia's comment of "Aren't you a little short for a stormtrooper?". This statement could have made Luke feel quite "small", as as such he may have made himself appear bigger using The Force, probably subconsciously. This feeling of anger would fluctuate randomly, making Luke appear bigger only in certain scenes. This hypothesis is not very popular, as it does not explain the instances of Bigger Luke prior to Leia's comment.
