To be honest ... I was once like that too. I just automatically assumed that Rei was inserted to build a narrative. Then I looked back on it and thought "wow ... I was being stupid as fuck". I mean, I do think her character was extremely flawed in 7. Mary Sue might even be an accurate description(idk, i don't watch enough anime to know the "Sues"). But this whole "sjw" narrative has gone too far ... even IF Disney added characters to be diverse ... WHO CARES! They're original characters! Nothing wrong with diversity. The way I see it is, if Disney thinks adding diverse characters will make their movies more popular and beloved, they are just doing their job. It's Disney! And yeah, that plinkett introduction is amazing XD ! I especially like the side story where he keeps that girl in his basement! XD |
I think that it's hard to judge Rey until the films are done. Luke, most fans were kids when they saw the original so no one cares that Luke was OP. With Anakin, we knew he was going to be OP from the beginning... so him doing amazing at everything didn't surprise anyone. Rey, we'll see. Man I really hope (they wont) they go with Rey becoming evil and Kylo becoming good. Itd be amazing.
And ikr? XD the Star Wars Plinkett reviews are legendary!
