yeah its amazing, rey is literally the only Jedi we have seen who was able to use the force and a lightsaber so easily without any training.

the way they had rey wield the lightsaber in tfa it looks like she could have taken down yoda, darth sidious, mace windu, palpatine , vader, ventress and obi wan

then in this movie shes taking on elite Praetorian Guards and wielding the lightsaber like she's a 30 year vet :childplease:

No-ElRey. And since we're talking about No L's and doing impossible sh!t, why is BB-8 the greatest droid that ever lived? R5 malfunctioned, K2 shot the eff up, R2 shot, electrocuted, smacked up, 3PO been shot, blown up, shut off when becomes annoying...BB-8 does anything he wants to. Matter of fact, why was BB-8 with Finn? They had zero chemistry in TFA. He was Poe's droid and developed a relationship with Rey.

Luke saw that Ben was dangerous, Ben reveals that he is indeed dangerous and drops a hut on him and kills his students, Luke runs away to Ach-To while Ben wrecks havoc with a few of Luke's other students that he took under his wing, Luke puts force thumbs in his ear so he doesn't feel said havoc Ben is causing, Luke still can't actually face the monster he allowed to fester for a decade so he fights him via Tupac hologram, and then he dies. Again, wtf was Rian Johnson thinking?

The shot of the destroyer being split in two after Haldo sends her ship through it in lightspeed is an ALL-TIME great Star Wars shot. The kind of auteurist touch rarely found in franchises with this kind of following.
one of the few good parts in this film.....

One gripe I kinda have with the new trilogy as a whole is how they make use of the force.

You used to need specialized training to do anything next level with the force. Without training force sensitive individuals usually had minor precognitive abilities and advanced reflexes. That's it! An example was Anakin when Qui Gon found him and Chirrut Imwe from Rogue One. Chirrut is a prime example of an individual that is force sensitive but has never had any proper Jedi training in the force. The force enhanced his martial arts skills and reflexes but that's really it.

This is why you never saw random force sensitive people all over the galaxy jumping 20 feet in the air and off walls shooting lighting at each other.

The Jedi were the only ones that knew how to harness the force and take it to the next level.

Kid Anakin Skywalker on tatooine with a bazillion or whatever mediclorians, more than Yoda at the time still wasn't doing crazy shyt with all that force power. All he could do was race podracers and he wasn't even really that good at that. Anakin knew what the force was and knew who the Jedi were so its not like he had no knowledge of what the Jedi could do. But it didn't matter because without specialized training you can only do so much with the force.

So when I see Rey able to force pull a Lightsaber to her hand or even do a Jedi Mind Trick it makes ABSOLUTELY no sense. She has received ZERO training in the force. Jedi Mind Trick is like Master level technique how the fukk can she do that?!?

Also the force isn't the fukking Avatar State or SSJ mode. You can't just turn it on in the middle of a fight and be awesome.

So as cool as the broom kid scene was the force isn't some X-men super power that your born having all the capabilities available to you. You have to commune with the force and train your mind, body and spirit to even be able to lift a simple object. but honestly now whats the point of training if you can do anything with out it.

Every force ability Rey has done she's done because she saw or as heard that Jedi can do it. I won't be surprised if shes shooting lighting and force projecting to different planets aboard the falcon next episode.

But it's little things like this that the Disney Star Wars Lore Masters or whatever should be keeping in check so the directors don't come along and retcon the passed 40 years of star wars just so they can make a shytty movie.
:salute::salute::salute::salute:My nikka:myman:I have been saying this shyt since the TFA and people kept saying wait until the next film. So now the next film is here and it’s revealed bytch has never had any training and her parents are no one. Like I have stated numerous times Anakin daddy was the very energy source they all use and he couldn’t do half the shyt this silly bytch is doing. These new movies make no fukking sense in regards to established lore, just making shyt up as they go along.
