So I've pointed out that...
Knows nothing of the Force - 30 minutes later wielding the force like a well trained Jedi.
Is a Junker - No explanation of how she can fly the MF like one of the best pilots in the galaxy other than a throw away line that she can pilot. Repairing it does not mean you...
If you have to come up with theories as to why she's already so awesome at everything then the character development is indeed poor.
Almost everything she does it's saying "hey don't ask why or how, just accept it". To me that's a lazy way to create what's essentially the most pivotal character...
You get some explanation back as to why people didn't agree with you, and it's she's a pretty girl, you're all duped...seriously, white knights, you muppet.
Well it's apparent that nobody is allowed to pass comment on the character because as soon as someone does someone has a crack at them...
Rey is a pretty girl. That's how they get around people criticising the characters way overpowered ways.
Anyone who questions it, the white knights charge in to defend the character.
Anyone who thinks Rey is a credible character the way she's been written into the film is easily duped yes.
I think it's a shit character. Or are people not allowed to think that?
The force isn't dormant. Ren is using it. He killed a bunch of other people VERY recently who had it. So your theory of "it awakens" isn't right.
Dormant suggests it's been unused or untrained in a long time.
As pointed out, Anakin was a rubbish character, why is Ren excused from being looked...
Most fantasy science fiction movies don't have a detailed history like SW :)
Shit character development can often spoil a movie. Except for people who are easily duped that is.
I've been a fan since I saw it in 77 in the theatre as a kid. SO yeah, I've invested a bit of my life in it as a fan.
I can critique the film however the hell I like to be honest. That's what people do with movies you know?
Not everyone is a popcorn sloth that just sits there and gets sucked...
Wrong. The first few films may have required a suspension of belief, but this far into the series history to simply say everything she does is because OMG she's awesome and that's why she's a super Jedi is excusing poor plot and character development. There's plenty of background history and...
It took Luke quite a bit of training to even be able to lift a box off the ground with the force. Ren stopped a blaster shot mid air and kept it frozen.
So they start off with him doing something very difficult that only a highly trained Jedi could do and by the time he battles Ren he's become...
Anakin was widely berated for being a rubbish character at the time.
Why should Rey escape the same criticism?
Because it's a good looking woman instead?
You mean just after he's had his arse handed too him?
Think that kind of proves the point. Luke got beat up and needed rescuing by others quite a bit early on.
Rey just breezes through without a single bit of training being able to do and control pretty much everything she has to without a...
I was expecting a flawed character, one who takes a beating on their way to realising their potential. Not some kid who grew up in a bleak wasteland that's instantly one of the best pilots/mechanics in the galaxy and can all of a sudden control the force and defeat someone who has already had...
He should have more control of it than a person who has no idea what the hell it is.
The whole mind control of the Stormtrooper to escape was parody comedy at its best.
