Was rey being so overpowered a mistake? Or is it good storytelling
>>67885611
how was she op in any fucking way at all? quit with the sexist bullshit! if it had been fin you wouldn't give a flying fuck!?
>>67885703
p much
>>67885703
Because she destroyed kylo ren with no training at all.
She mind tricked a guard without even knowing what a mind trick is.
>>67885703
>>67886321
Plus she managed to turn kylo Ren's interrogation technique against him
It was because they had to showcase all the typical jedi powers the audience expected but were so rushed cramming everything in the movie they couldn't put them in there with any sort of build up.
The film is just a giant checklist of 'starwarsy' things. The series stopped being good the moment it became completely formulaic.

LOL
kylo ren killed his father and got shot in the side with a blaster he was tired and crazy as well as he was ordered to bring her to the emporer instead of kill her so he wasn't beaing serious
and kylo showed rey how to get into someones mind so she naturally gave it a shot when she could feel how to do it
>>67885703
>>67885611
It really hinges on the rest of her story arc, in my honest opinion famdingo.
She's not even padawan Obi-wan tier.
>>67885611
Hopefully luke goes dark side and at some point kylo kills her
>>67885611
Instead of building a hero like they did with Luke, they kind of just said "Rey's the hero" and then she did all this miraculous shit without so much as a training montage.
>>67886481
whatever if it was a guy it would make perfect sense wouldn't it??
>>67886526
Even the prequels had the decency to show that Anakin trained all his life for podracing. He also wasn't an instant lightsaber expert that defeated a Sith on his first try.
>>67886598
ummmm kylo ren isnt even done with his training he is still new and emotional injured and killed his dad so he was really messed up and falling to pieces also you know he was ordered to take the girl alive and she was fighting FOR HER LIFE against someone who wasnt
>>67886598
>all his life
He was like 6.
>>67886644
If you gave kid Anakin a lightsaber he would've just stabbed himself.
>>67885611
Daily reminder that Max Landis was correct.
And I like TFA but Rey is Mary Sue.
Screencap this : she`ll single handedly once again beat Kylo`s ass in VIII and she`ll take on Snoke by herself in IX.
>>67886759
what does that have to do with anything? oh my god
>>67887021
you aren't real
>>67885703
>Probably has no idea about Jedi mind tricks, yet performs one successfully on her THIRD. TRY.
>Goes from getting pushed back by heavy lightsaber strikes to fighting with some semblance of actual form after 'zenning out' or some shit for a few moments after a lightsaber lock.
Oh, and this is just me being nitpicky, but being able to shoot motherfuckers, one handed, the first time she's ever even held a blaster is complete BS. Shooting a handgun ONE HANDED accurately takes a truckload of practice. Like a lot.
we dont know yet, do we?
there are two more movies
>>67885611
Why is there never any discussion about how bad kylo ren was or his stupid lightsaber
>>67885703
>Understands droids and Wookies
>Can fly the Millennium Falcon with no training.
>Ability to just use the force with no training or understanding of it.
>Amazing duelist with a lightsaber.
>Force Pull
>Goody two shoes
>Nigger Lover
>Never afraid
>Uncharming / Pussy Lips Attraction only.
>Hot-wiring expert
>Timing expert / computer specialist
>MFW pic related actually has more character to it then Rey.
>>67888336
>This.
Mary Sue Skywalker was the worst thing about this film, with it's blatant race-mixing anti-white male subtext in a close second. The rest was decent though..
>>67889096
I really liked the film except for Mary Sue and the race mixing propaganda.
