The faction of the Imperial remnant led by Hux's father refused to abide by the terms of the Galactic Concordance and retreated to the unkonwn regions of space in the galactic west with as much weapons and materiel they could get their hands on. They hid out there in 30 years, rebuilding their fleet until they were ready to strike at the galaxy again

Most of this shit wasn't explained in the film because Star Wars isn't a fucking documentary and you don't need to know the ins and outs of the political landscape of the galaxy

>She doesn't even need training to use the force, whereas before her basically every single Jedi needed to train for YEARS to control it.
We don't know everything about her yet, as the movie stands, she is a Mary Sue, but once we find out her origin I'm sure it will be cleared up. My theory is that she either trained at Luke's academy when she was very young and was spared by Kylo and put on Jakku, or that she is born of the force and is the true chosen one since Anakin didn't destroy the dark side apparently.

>Kylo Ren is being 'seduced' by the light side of the force.
>But the entire central plot element of half the fucking Star Wars universe is that it's really hard to stay in the light side and it's the dark side that's really seductive.
Most likely he fell the pull of the light because he still loved his family, killing Han proved his devotion to the dark side

>What the fuck is The New Republic? Where was it, how large was it, why the fuck didn't it do anything?
It's the government set up by the rebels after Episode VI, presumably based off of how the Republic ran things. That galaxy Starkiller base blew up was implied to be some place important to the Republic

1/2
>>
>>68787024
>Why is The First Order even around?
They're a group that is a mix of Imperial remnants and the Knights of Ren, who are a cult that practices the Dark Side of the force and is obsessed with finishing Order 66

>Why is there still a RESISTANCE if the Republic exists? Why isn't there just a WAR?
The Resistance is just a group of the Republic army devoted to fighting the First Order

>Who the fuck is Snoke and where did he come from?
We don't know yet, but I'm sure we'll find out in Episode VIII or IX. My theory is that he's an ancient holocron of some old Sith Lord, that would explain why he only appears on hologram, since he doesn't have a physical form.

>Why is Kylo Ren 15 years old and emo as fuck? He even has acne.
I honestly like this about his character, he's kinda like if Anakin from episode II was a good character and also evil

>Why wasn't Kylo Ren trained in lightsaber combat?
Assuming you're talking about him getting beaten by Rey, see above about Rey being a Mary Sure. Either Rey is very very strong in the force or had been trained already some what, or Kylo cares for her and was trying not to hurt her. He even was trying to let her let him teach her the ways of the dark side

>Exactly what role is Finn meant to fill other than the BBC that fills the main heroine?
Rescuing Poe, supplying info on how the First Order runs, etc

>Why can't we have more Poe?
That's a pretty fuckin good question actually

>>68787915
Pretty sure Lucas himself said that balance of the Force isn't literally equal number light and dark users. The dark side is a corruption/disease in the Force and it needs to be cleansed to maintain balance
>>
>>68790048

He did, but everyone wants it to be a yin and yang thing, so they ignore it.
>>
>>68789856
That's why he got his ass kicked by Vader in V. By VI, he's already trained quite a bit (i.e. building a new lightsaber, force pull, force choke, etc.) and he beat Vader by surprise attack and using his anger. Then he gets his shit pushed in by Sheev
>>
>>68790098
Where's the quote I can't find it.
>>
>>68790298
Many fans incorrectly assume that balance refers to an equal mix of both light and dark side users. However, as George Lucas explains in the introductory documentary for the VHS version A New Hope, Special Edition, this is not the case:

"[...] Which brings us up to the films 4, 5, and 6, in which Anakin's offspring redeem him and allow him to fulfill the prophecy where he brings balance to the Force by doing away with the Sith and getting rid of evil in the universe..."

In an interview, Lucas compared the difference between the light and dark sides as being like the difference between a symbiotic relationship and a cancer. A symbiotic relationship is one which benefits both parties and in which neither is harmed, whereas a cancer takes without giving back, eventually causing the death of both parties
>>
>>68790134
>That's why he got his ass kicked by Vader in V.
So what? He was using the Force bretty gud by that point, and managed to hold his own against Vader, who even called his abilities impressive.

We don't know how much training Kylo had, so him getting BTFO by angry Rey (especially after being shot) is not inconceivable to me.
>>
>>68790566
He didn't do anything significant with the Force in that fight except jump out of the Carbonite thing (which can be assumed was taught by Yoda since he was jumping around with him on Dagobah). That's when Vader says "Impressive, most impressive". But even before that Vader says "The force is with you, but you are not a Jedi yet".

At least with Luke it can be assumed that he was training in between movies with the help of ghost Obi-Wan. But we can't do that with Rey since she didn't even know the Force existed until Han tells her. The end fight scene I can give a pass since he is wounded and he was trying to capture her. But what about when she overpowers his force pull, or when she reverses his mind trick, or when she mind tricks a stormtrooper. Those aren't things you can just do by remembering "Oh yea the Force XD"

Even if they do clear up Rey's origins and how the fuck she can ace the MF and control the force, both without any training or guidance, it's still terrible storytelling

Even if we know were getting three movies, each films has to stand up on its own. Maybe I'm wrong, but there werent any glaring unanswered questions at the end of ANH and ESB. The stories were modular and self-contained

It encompasses most of the Old Republic and Galactic Empire territory. The capital now changes star systems every few years in the name of more equal power distribution which is why it wasn't on Coruscant. The New Republic was more concerned with rebuilding than it was about the First Order, it didn't cnsider it a threat

>Why is The First Order even around?
Remnants of the Galactic Empire still exist, there was a peace treaty soon after ROTJ when both sides decided it was better to stablise the situation than continue war, the remnants control some periphery star systems and have been largely neutared, they were forced to disarm as part of the peace treaty. The First Order is a radical split of the remnant that fled into unknown territory to continue its plans of empire

>Why is there still a RESISTANCE if the Republic exists? Why isn't there just a WAR?
The Resistance exists purely for the reason to combat the First Order, which the New Republic doesn't consider a threat. The New Republic does not support the resistence, but it tolerates its existence

>>68785809
yeah she's mary sue as fuck. but the whole "stronk wimminz" thing is just people implying dumb shit.

i mean, i hate feminists as much as the next guy, but you gotta look at the fucking story. she's raised on a desert planet, to eat she's gotta go out into dangerous wrecks and try to scavenge shit. she's also like 17 or so, i dunno about you but at 17 i could leap around like a monkey with no trouble, so she probably developed strong muscles and such for all the agility she'd need.

now if you remove the fact that she's a woman, what do you get? a scrapper kid. agile, gamey, un-trusting, self-sufficient and moderately clever. now add in a healthy dose of the force (literally increasing their luck stat by 100000%) and you get a mary sue scrapper kid.

ya'll are just mad because its a fucking female. if it was a dude you guys would be bitching because it's anakin 2.0.

Anakin.

And remind me again about how every just adored young Anakin in Episode one?
How everyone praised that role, how it was writing at its finest?
>>
>>68806892
Anakin a shit. Rey is done better than young anakin ever was.

but that's beside the point. im pointing out that people only whine about her being a mary sue or a woman. mostly about her being a woman.
>>
>>68795770
Nailed it

>>68806980

Rey is literally Anakin without a schlong.
If you can't see it, then you're as blind as the people who simply hate her because she has tits.
>>
>>68807260
i honestly cant see how she's worse than Anakin. sorry anon.

care to explain, or just call me autistic for not agreeing with you blindly.
>>
>>68806980
Anakin is excusable because he ended up becoming the biggest hitler-tier fuckup in the galaxy and it was assumed this was going to happen from the first movie. There is no excuse for how good Rey is at fucking everything it's obnoxious.

>Rey is explained to be incredibly adept at everything because of... A supposed backstory that might or might not be reveled next movie?

It's about explaining why the characters are so good at what they do, and the fact that they don't have any flaws.
I mean, at least Anakin gets overconfident and eventually succumbs to the darkside, whereas Rey's development has gone from being better than everyone else to being even better than everyone else.
>>
>>68807312
>an 8 year old kid can pod-race against aliens that have better vehicles and years more experience, and win.
>a 17-24 girl who literally raised herself by scavenging and trading to survive (no mummy to whore for rations) is also bred into a highly force sensitive family

but no, we hate rey because she's a mary sue. tell me again about starkiller force pushing a star destroyer into a planet. if we want to play with lore, there are way worse mary sues. rey's skill with blasters/lightsaber can be completely written off as the force guiding her.

you're arguing about an invisible stat that only the DM can see, and he decides how much everyone gets at any point in time. it's stacked from the beginning. the force is a crutch for all the bad plot points and terrible writing all through star wars.

>>68807525
anakin was locked in a room most of his life, playing with electronics and machines, rey was out doing all sorts of shit to survive. anakin never had to worry about where his next meal came from, rey did. arguing about weapon proficiency is silly, not only is she a survivalist, she's also super force sensitive, using weapons would come easily to her.

that being said, i think they did go a bit overboard with her lightsaber battle against kylo. but that doesn't mean you shit all over the character because she's got tits.
>>
>>68785809

My main beef with this film is that Rey's ridiculously over the top OPness made Finn completely pointless, I mean what was the point of him even being in the film?
>>
>>68807610
>anakin was locked in a room most of his life, playing with electronics and machines, rey was out doing all sorts of shit to survive.

Anakin playing with tools and machinery is as much an explanation for his flying skills as Rey living in a desert is for her fighting, flying and force using powers.
It's shit.

>. anakin never had to worry about where his next meal came from, rey did.
Anakin was a slave. So it's not like he's had the happiest time.

> not only is she a survivalist, she's also super force sensitive, using weapons would come easily to her.
So living in a desert, scavenging metal apparently lets you aim and fly better than Han Solo, use the force within 15 minutes of being introduced to the concept, as well as beating a Sith master?

>but that doesn't mean you shit all over the character because she's got tits.

What is it you're not getting?
She's as poorly written as Anakin was, if not worse, because apparently, while shitting on a character because of their genitals is despicable, praising them for the same reason is literally the most reputable thing a person could do.

A young, scrawny female, who has literally 0 muscle mass, but apparently has been surviving on scavenging since she was a child is an absurdity in itself.
Using that "backstory" to explain why she's God tier at everything she tries, is simply stupid.

And here's the one point that makes her even worse than Anakin: She has 0 flaws.
Not a single vice, or slight ineptitude. She is perfect at EVERYTHING she does.
>>
>>68807610
Holy shit are you dense? You really think Anakin is a bigger Mary Sue than Rey who
>can speak every language in the galaxy
>can perfectly pilot any ship
>knows the inner workings of the Millennium Falcon better than Han
>reverses kylo Rens mind control
>uses jedi mind tricks on a storm trooper
>force grabs a lightsabre
>beats a trained sith in lightsabre combat
>knows the inner workings of the Starkiller base well enough to unlock a security door.
And yet again, even though Anakin is only a fraction of the Mary Sue Rey is, he still becomes fucking DARTH VADER AND THIS IS KNOWN BEFORE EPISODE 1 IS EVEN RELEASED. How can a character be a Mary Sue when literally the majority of the time they are on screen they are fucking up?
>>
>>68807820
im not saying she's great because she's got tits. im literally saying that the character is better than people give credit for. if you're going to blame anything, blame the faggots that decided the force is like getting programs written into your head like the matrix.

you're not wrong about her being a mary sue, not at all. but you seriously hate on the wrong things, ALL jedi are mary sues. imagine if you bred humanity for luck. not strength or intelligence, but just for luck.

in a few hundred generations you'd get a person so dangerous and untouchable that mary sue wouldn't even come close to covering it. that's basically what the force is. if your on a plane and it crashes, the force guides your actions so you dont get hurt. if you pick up a blaster, the force guides your shots perfectly on target. if you pick up a lightsaber and fight against a sith with years of training, the force will guide your blows.

its gay as fuck, but thats motherfucking star wars man.

all of these have been rebutted numerous times
>>
>>68807983
What rebuttal is there to things that literally take place in the movie? Give me a non Mary Sue non headcannon reason Rey can use the force as well as a fucking jedi master after learning about it from Hans moments before? Why can she speak wookie?
>>
>>68808048
>Rey can use the force as well as a fucking jedi master after learning about it from Hans moments before
She uses the Force after Kylo's probing, mimicking him.
>Why can she speak wookie?
she lives on a multiculti planet; her first lines are some alien language, so it's established
>>
>>68807970
> ALL jedi are mary sues.

All the Jedi also supposedly go through years and decades of training to master the force.
And all the Jedi aren't infallible; see Qui-gon, Old Obiwan, the entire Episode two massacre...
It's simply not interesting to see a character go from a 9 to a 10 in a movie.
You want more than that, you want some setbacks, because that makes the victory taste so much sweeter.
You want a set up and a later pay off.

There is absolutely none of that in Reys character. She is also the only Jedi (so far) that simply masters the force and defeats a trained Sith within 30 minutes of each other. With NO training whatsoever.
Look at Luke. He got his ass handed to him and his hand cut off.
Then, as the movies progress, he learns from his mistakes and betters himself.
And even with that, he literally loses the last fight and needs Vader to save him.
So, the force doesn't make your character a Mary Sue, shitty writing makes your character a Mary Sue.

Accept that Rey was simply complete and utter bullshit.
There's no way around it.

The fact that these responses seem perfectly reasonable to you is an indication that you are too retarded to have an actual conversation with.
>>
>>68808111
So if someone probes your mind and you are force sensitive you immediately learn to use jedi mind tricks? Or do you just have to be a Mary Sue? And that's fucking stupid just because you live in a multicultural planet doesn't mean you know every fucking language in the galaxy.
