Because of your like bombing, I've got a similar amount.
I concur. It was constructive, though, as it brought to mind the Thrawn / Anakin omake which I've been
Because the director is notably a dick.
Man, Solo bombed so hard because it was an awful movie in many levels, casting, script, themes...
You forgot to mention that those who hate Mary-Sues will not like the movie.
Too late. I read the tropes page for it months ago.
Although to put into context the 91 is just the Critical reviews, the audience score is 46. Similarly Metacritic's user score is 4.5/10. As such there is a major discrepency between the Critics and the viewers for this one.
I don't think of Rey as a Mary Sue because the term is so misused. What she is is inconsistent with the established lore. Specifically, she gets too good too quickly. Jedi training, or any kind of force use, takes years to learn. Even Luke, who is absurdly strong in the force, takes 4 years between episodes 4 and 6 to be able to defeat Vader.
Even Anikan took years, and he was supposed to be the strongest force user ever.
To be fair, Anakin is all of nine when he's introduced, and even then, he's still a ridiculously good pilot (won the Boonta Eve Podrace, blew up a Lucrehulk, generally survived participating in the space part of the Battle of Naboo).
And that is because the force enhances his reflexes passively with precognition along with his own gift at piloting.
Yeah TLJ has a lot of holes that appear very quickly once you think about it or watch a second time, like I've seen a clip of the royal guard fight where one of the guard had Ray dead to rights with a dagger in hand that he could easily plunge in her back in plain view.....that they edited out in as the arm passed behind Ray. Seriously I am not kidding they did that.
Not to mention the guards who fight each other
