Rey beating Kylo with no training and no Blood to boost her power just makes the entire story ridiculous.
Why did she even have visions of going to Ahch-To she didn't learn shit from going to the planet.
Midichlorians could still pass down from birth? Wait - what? Pass down from non-force users or force users? Were Jedi pro-creating when they shouldn't be?
How did Luke with 3 weeks of training defeat Darth Vader - the greatest force user who ever lived - in ROTJ? Totally Ridiculous. [Reply]
Saw very late last night in a great theater. AMC Dolby with their laser HDR projectors are really great. About an hour in I started to hit me - oh no this isn’t very good. [Reply]

Been a while since I've seen it, but...he didn't? [Reply]

Makes more sense then no Training what so ever.
It's also explained by lucas that vader had reservations about killing his own son and luke Tapped in to the dark side when Vader threaten to go after Leia. [Reply]

Anakin was a jedi and he pro-created with padme amidala giving birth to twins both strong in the force.
Also Kathleen Kennedy when asked about Rey's parentage said Twins run in the Skywalker bloodline.
I'm now under 100% belief they had no real story structure and basically told Rian just go with it. [Reply]

So where did all the Jedis in the Jedi temple come from? (you know, the ones who composed the entirety of the Jedi order) From nobodies or did the Jedi's all have illicit love children?

And you don't think Kylo held back by literally telling her she "needed a teacher?" (Thus refusing to continue the fight?)
You're literally making leaps of logic to defend even the prequels but holding TLJ to a much different standard. [Reply]

Not every one who has high midichlorians becomes a jedi.
How did you think the jedi selected who would be a youngling they traced blood lines. [Reply]
