Whats with kylo ren in the new star wars movie?
He has trouble beating a STORMTROOPER at laser fight who obviously has never used one before and had his ass anded to him by a girl that has never used the force before.
>>
>>64039090
> This Again

Did you miss the part where he rakes a bowcaster bolt to the side and is bleeding all over the place, right after he killed his own father?
>>
>>64039404

A small wound justifies the fact that two newbies can take on a dark force user?
Stupid idiot.
>>
>>64039472
>small wound
Did you miss where they built up Chewie's bowcaster to be powerful as fuck literally blowing stormtroopers away
>>
>>64039472
>small wound
bowcaster is star war equivalent of anti-tank rifle
>>
>>64039472
it wasn't a small wound, did you see the damage the thing did to other people. It's like a grenade launcher.
Kylo is also mentally unstable that's why he sucks.
He still can stop laser with the force which is impressive.
>>
>>64039521

Alright, nevermind the bow. Before he was injured he tried to read the girl's mind and she defied him using her newly discovered force powers. What's up with that?
>>
If some one walked into the frozen in air laser beam would it be painful?
>>
>>64039090
>>64039404
This, also, did you miss the part where it's a fucking movie?

She's the chosen one,etc,etc...

Protip: Kylo Ren is complete shit at what he does.
>>
From the novel
>Despite his fear, Finn raised the beam to defend himself. Ren lunged, struck—and Finn parried. Shards of light flew, illuminating the snow and the surrounding vegetation. Drawing back slightly, Ren considered his unexpectedly determined opponent, then resumed his assault with a vengeance.
>Finn blocked him again and again, once letting the other man’s beam slide against his own and harmlessly off to one side. He counterattacked, to no avail. The longer the contest continued, the stronger Ren seemed to become. It was as if he was enjoying the challenge. Feeding upon it.
>At least, it appeared so until Finn parried, swung, and unexpectedly stabbed, the tip of his lightsaber beam grazing Ren’s arm. That made it more than a challenge. Taking a step back, Ren reconsidered his opponent. When he closed the distance between them anew, it was with a purpose that had been previously lacking. Expecting an execution, he had found a contest. Now he had been touched. It was time for play to end.
>Advancing relentlessly, he was driven by something that Finn could not even sense, far less counter. Still the ex-trooper fought back, until Ren landed a blow that cut across Finn’s chest and sent the lightsaber flying from his hand. It landed in the snow six meters distant.
>It was over.

It's complete bullshit, that's what it is. Stupid retarded movie.
>>
>>64039645
How can a janitor even block one attack from a force user?

Bad writing?
Plothole?
>>
Im happy they didn't do any power creep shit, but a power backslide is just as bad. We traded Vader for some gangly emo kid who can't even wield a lightsaber.
>>
Yeah because Kylo's "slash madly at everything with no regard for personal safety" technique was really well honed. The equivalent of a Jedi master's, really.

God damn how do people miss this shit.
>>
>>64039645
Vs Rey
>Ren met her with his own weapon alight. Expecting weakness, he encountered only strength. Her skill with the device was raw at best, but it was backed by a fury that was as new to his experience as it was unexpected.
>To an observer at a distance, it would have appeared as if a series of small explosions was going off in the depths of the forest. Blow after blow landed as lightsaber struck against lightsaber. Though Ren was bigger and stronger than Rey, their struggle had nothing to do with physical size. What she lacked in mass, she made up for in ferocity.
>For a while she actually drove him backward, until he regained his self-assurance and in turn pressed her. The fight continued to shift back and forth; first he gained the advantage, then an enraged Rey took it back.
>>
>>64039804
>Slowly she shook her head. “The Force?” That was what this was about? Instead of moving to defend herself, Rey closed her eyes. Ren hesitated, confused by her actions. A long moment passed, in which Ren sensed a change in the air, a change in her. Then she opened her eyes and attacked, viciously, in a way she didn’t know she was capable of, striking again and again as Ren was slowly driven back. The flaring energy from the interacting lightsabers was more pronounced than ever in the flurry of her attack. And—Ren went down.
>He was up again in an instant, but not in time to fully deflect a following blow from Rey’s weapon. He succeeded in blocking it, but he still took the full force of the strike against the haft of his own lightsaber. The weapon went flying into the snow. Unarmed, he raised a hand and utilized the Force to fend off one slashing blow after another, until finally her fury penetrated his remaining defenses. Taking a glancing blow to the head and chest, he went down, a prominent burn slashed across his face. Weakened, he reached out toward his lightsaber, trying to draw it to him.
>One downward cut, she saw. One quick, final strike, and she could kill him. The landing lights of a shuttle appeared in the distance, coming over the trees in her direction. She had to make a decision, now.
>Kill him, a voice inside her head said. It was amorphous, unidentifiable, raw. Pure vengeful emotion. So easy, she told herself. So quick.
>She recoiled from it. From the dark side.
>>
>>64039788
An argument could be made that Rey and Finn were like a brick wall boss in a video game.

Up until that point you've been sleep walking through everything so the first time you come up against anything remotely threateing you get rekt the first time because you're not prepared for it (and also on low health from getting btfo by Chewie).
>>
>>64039090
what with this lame troll? He was obviously
powerful and in the end fight he was wounded.

So what with this trolling? "EH EH YOUR VILLAIN IS NOT STRONG EH EH I GUESS YOU ARE MAD RIGHT? EH EH"
>>
kylo ren is amazing when confident about his powers.
his father troubled him, made him rethink his choices, he was shot once, and kept on hitting his side so he wouldn't feel as much pain as he did.
he didn't feel good, wasn't in complete control of himself, and got btfo
>>
>>64039907
>so he wouldn't feel as much pain as he did
Retard. He was hitting it to feel more pain in order to dark side make him more powerful.
>>
1. Finn has had more experience in combat with a saber when he fought "TRAITOR!!"
2. Kylo was severely wounded from Chewies Bowcaster
3. Kylo is a still a sith noob who requires further training
4. Even with everything going against him Ren still kicked his ass

What should really be asking is why didn't Kylo Ren use the force on Finn after knocking out Rey with a force push?
>>
>>64039986
Using the force requires concentration
>>
Not this shit again.

Kylo Ren is a baby who went emo before finishing his Jedi training and who hasn't finished his Sith training either. He can't even build a proper fucking lightsaber. That kid who died to those clone troopers in Revenge of the Sith could probably beat him even when he didn't have a gaping wound.
>>
kylo

casually stops a beam shot with the force at the start of the movie
casually force chokes people into the air
killed his own father (even vader couldnt)

cant beat 2 people who are wielding lighters for the first time

kek

this we have this thread at the very least 5 time per day
the first order is lazy.they think they can just have big guns and a bit of Force to be the empire.now that they lost they know they actually have to work harder.pretty meta actually.
>>
it doesn't make any sense

a great deal of the other movies is dedicated to both skywalkers training extensively. ren has been trained in the force, is leader of a deadly group, and is beaten by a girl who uses a lightsaber against him for the first time

she is also inexplicably able to perform jedi mind tricks without any practice. forget that previously we only see masters perform them, not long before this point she thought jedi were a myth entirely. she has certainly never seen a jedi mind trick, how does she even know it is a thing?

and how does it make sense that this girl goes to luke for training? luke already trained kylo ren, who then left and received additional training in the dark side (which is how vader was so powerful). she is already more powerful than a guy who knows more than luke can teach

the power level of characters was pretty fucked considering the dedication the other movies had to creating a sense of time in training exercises, but on the other hand, maybe Ren is just supposed to suck

Stormtroopers are now trained in melee combat and Rey has experience using her staff

And then they just decided fuck it, lets make him a lousy storm trooper, he wont remember a thing

He had great ambitions. REEEEEEEEY ruined it all.

There's a reason he's the only trooper who brainwashing apparently doesn't work on

Kylo Ren will be the Zuko of Star Wars
>>
Rey isn't allowed to lose because she's a strong woman character and Finn is a dindu and it'd be racist to make him weak, unless it's just to show that Rey is the strong female lead.
>>
He's a wizard build.

Notice how he's always doing mind trick shit.
>>
>>64039986
challenge probably
>>
Now I don't care much Kylo as a bad guy. He was already beaten by the hero.
So what he comes back and loses again?
The only hope this flick has if Rey turns evil and Kylo has to stop her, otherwise JJ fucked up

Ben did I ever tell you about your mother kissing me passionately infront of your father? She was a good sister.

>>64040595
That was probably why he was hitting it

maybe he couldn't concentrate enough because he was wounded

Why are all the villains in this movie such trash?

Kylo Ren has constant autistic tantrums and can't kill anything that isn't unarmed and standing still.

Phasma does absolutely nothing and can be intimidated into lowering Starkiller Base's shields in an instant. She HAS to know she's the most valuable person in the room once they've captured her. She can lower the shields. They can't, and it's a fair bet very few people on the base can. She's irreplaceable. She could at least TRY to resist them for a minute or two.

Hux always looks like he's desperately trying to hold his bowels until he can get to a bathroom and never does anything of note other than give one speech. Even Tarkin was at least shown giving people orders and shit. Tarkin had a commanding presence. Hux has nothing.

And last but not least, we have Mr. Do-nothing Hologram, who can barely be bothered to be in the movie. Hey kids, try this: you too can simulate the amazing experience of encountering Supreme Leader Snoke by graffiti-ing angry eyebrows on the Lincoln Memorial!

>>64043632

>Why are all the villains in this movie such trash?

And what exactly has Vader done in the original movies?

>force choke some subordinates
>walk menacingly through hallways
>beat an old man in a lightsaber fight
>defeated by a noob-jedi who had a rushed basic training

Palpatine isn't that much better

>sitting on a throne
>do lightning trick
>get thrown down a shaft

Put down your nostalgia goggles.
Palpatine was some Phasma-level shit.

You know I was suprised with kylo
I thought I would not like him
After actually watching the movie I hate him
For being a douchey bitch
and I love it
Him fucking up and getting fucked up made me enjoy his scenes
I kinda want to see if he gets straightened up by the the new dark lord or he just ends up being disowned for being a pussy, I would love either way
