The person who comes in and talks about how often he watches every movie and knows all the lightsaber fighting styles thinks I need to take it down a notch? Okay.
I think world building is great, I think that blustery gatekeeping approach like you do is a toxic and awful, "I don't mean to be condescending" immediately followed by a credentials drop is the most common tell, yikes.
Anyways the silly complaints about Rey are true of Luke/Anakin. Action heroes are always OP!
Nice ad hominem, but I'll bite. That's exactly why I ''dropped my credentials'' - I wanted to show you that I actually know the plots and characters and not just speaking out of my a**, which you apparently are. Here it goes:
Luke is a blabbering fool, whiny teenager who gets introduced to the Force, goes into his first confrontation with Vader not properly trained (even though he was taught by Yoda and Obi-wan) and against Yoda's advice and gets his ass handed to him, surviving only because of the father-son bond. When we see him again in ROTJ he is a calm, collected and deliberate character who has grown significantly in strength (due to years of training).
Anakin, even though being the ''chosen one'' is also a moody, whiny teenager who studies with the Jedi Order at the height of their strength. He also gets his cocky ass handed to him by an 80 year old guy, then when he defeats him in the next movie, he kills him, because his emotions get the best of him, thus starting his path to the dark side. For being OP, as you say, he sure gets f***** by Obi-Wan nicely at the end of the movie.
Rey, who we get no back story on is already a skilled pilot and staff-wielder (no qualms yet). When she confronts the bad guy minion (Kylo, which is what Vader was to Luke) for the first time in lightsaber combat, with her holding it in her hands for the first time, she defeats a Jedi Knight, who trained under Luke and later Snoke (even though we know nothing about him, he is being played up at this point) and is in his physical prime. All the suspense is taken out of the trilogy, because it is shown she can defeat the bad guy WITHOUT training. At this point the ball is in Kylo's court. She visits Luke, with whom she actually doesn't train at all (which is to say, that doesn't count as her training under him). She has force powers everyone else who trained for their entire lives can dream of. She resists the dark side at every step of the way successfully without any mentoring and guidance from light side masters, unlike Luke, who fights Vader with such anger in ROTJ he teeters on the edge.
I could go on, but I know it's all the same to you. You're just showing your ignorance. If anyone is being toxic here, it's you.
Oh and more baloney in the movie where they show Leia defeating Luke in lightsaber combat. Yikes.
