In this case people saying sexism probably have a case. There is definitely some of that going on. Such a character never gets criticized if it's a guy. I recall zero complaints about Neo "Compu-Messiah" in the Matrix or Harry Potter: Isn't He Wonderful/Special/Smart/Perfect/Should Be Fucking Heromonie But He's So Good He Lets His Mate Have Her. I do think the sequels should give Rey more time though, there's too many characters and they are focusing on too many things around her. |
Those who say that Rey is not a Mary Sue, consider this: would we ever see a scene where Rey gets messed up by an ice monster with visible bruises and cuts in her face, gets her hand cut off and burned by lighting until she smokes like bacon?
