Luke blows up a Death Star while holding off  Darth "Best Pilot In the Galaxy" Vader with his *eyes closed* after 10 minutes of Force "training". C'mon, lol. 

This is like me dunking on Shaquille O' Neal and LeBron James after playing basketball for 10 minutes. Even if I'm a naturally gifted athlete, this is fairly hard to believe. 

Anakin is a 9-year-old who with zero training is the only human who has reflexes fast enough to race pods, and he build robots as a hobby, oh and by the way his mom got randomly impregnated by the Force. Oh and of course he wins the pod race that saves Qui-Gon's ass after never completing a race before. Of course. Nothing CRAZY about any of that, lol. Like seriously. SERIOUSLY?

Anakin's abilities were wildly all over the place. He's generally a wuss in Episode II and III get chumped and beaten in 2/3 big battles he has. I thought his mdididicholrians were supposed to be 1043848x any Jedi. Apparently no one told Obi-Wan. Chosen One? More like Chosen Chump. Even Luke is able to more than hold his own against Vader in ESB and then beats him like red headed step child six months later in ROTJ. 

Star Wars is not a video game, it's a space opera/soap opera like George Lucas himself has said. Don't get so caught up in the "Sith Dude X/Y has super duper power XYZ! It's improssubule for him to lose to girl!" Star Wars was never about that type of nonsense. It's not WWE Wrestling. 

Of course Rey is going to beat Kylo Ren at the end of the movie, what you thought she was going to lose? That would be like A New Hope ending with Luke blowing his Death Star run and having Porkins bail him out. Not quite the same thing, but hey "it's more relaistic!". 

 

I guess  bad writing in one movie should excuse bad writing in another.
