>5+ years
Jesus! I know some parents are taking their duties seriously but God, spend 5 or more years in that thing for masturbating? Its worse than jail!
4 times a day, 365 days a year, ten years. That's 14600 times. Add in the two leap years that had to have happened, and it's 14602. The average male ejaculation is 4 cubic centimeters, and a cubic centimeter is equivalent to a milliliter. 58408ml, or 5.8408 liters.
That fan literally came more than a gallon to the thought of her.
How do you figure? 4 times a day for 365 days a year for ten years works out to 14600, add in two days for the leap years, where do the other six days come from?
how in the world are they mary sue characters? they are not perfect beings that can do anything and everything perfectly even when it's pretty much the first time they try, unlike Rey
Rey has a lot more trouble than any of the other star wars females
Padme was
A) A perfect, beloved queen
B) An accomplished stateswoman
C)A skilled warrior
D) etc. etc. See where i'm going? She's a hell of a lot more perfect, not to mention she's NATALIE PORTMAN. Natalie Portman is drop dead gorgeous.
SPOILERS MAY FOLLOW if you consider, for example, european royalty in the past, they were pretty close, they were skilled politicians because their position as nobility demanded it, they were trained in combat in case they needed to lead troops, and some were beloved, really it's not that hard for a character of noble birth to have those traits.
Rey on the other hand, being a scavenger that has to work her ass off to pay for food is safe to assume has never piloted a spaceship in her life, yet she pilots a freighter inside a downed imperial destroyer without crashing and straight up dying for doing such a ridiculous thing.
let me remind you that the best pilot of the resistence has trouble when he fist pilots a TIE fighter, JUST because it's an unfamiliar vessel.
There was no reason for Rey to know about the millenium falcon's modifications so extensively as it was not her property and probably had nothing to do with installing them.
While it makes sense that she can defend herself using that staff-like thing, since, well, it's a dangerous place and one needs to know how to defend oneself, it doesn't make sense to have her use a lightsaber well enough to defeat a trained individual (even considering injuries and mental issues), mastering one weapon does not mean mastering all.
While it makes sense for her to be able to repel Ren's force interrogation, as it is implied that Leia did the same thing, it doesn't make sense for her to turn it against Ren, see into his mind and then mind trick someone without any, and I mean ANY previous training, even Anakin wasn't able to do anything sophisticated with the force without training, for him, gut reactions were as good as it got, and he's the force jesus.
Even the scene in which she uses the blaster pistol is ridiculous, sure, she forgets about the safety and misses the first shot, but from then onwards she's billy the kid declaring open season on stormtroopers.
no matter how many pieces off spaceships you scavenge, that doesn't give you a blueprint for every ship ever built, so knowing where the doors' fuses were is kind of dumb, they just did it because it was necessary for the plot to save Han and Chewy, also her being able to move around the Starkiller base like she knows the place doesn't make much sense either.
You do remember her crashing it all over the village, right? Also, she has a flight simulator she took from the star destroyer in her AT-AT home, this was her first time piloting for real, but it's not like it was entirely new.
Poe didn't have trouble with the TIE fighter, at all. He handled it quite skillfully. He just couldn't figure out how to unhook it. I would hardly call that having trouble.
Rey was fighting Kyle ren with a lighstaber. You know who kylo ren had never met? Someone with a lightsaber. So here we have rey, who spent her life garnering practical experience, fighting someone gravely injured (and i mean gravely, the bowcaster killed three troopers in one shot) You'll also notice, she didn't exactly rekt him. She was on the defensive most of the time, and got lucky and clipped Ren, at which point ren lost controller
You also forget about the scene where Rey is shooting at Ren and she missed basically every shot.
And she didn't know where the fuses were. She was underneath the floor in a maintenance corridor. You want to know what tends to be in maintenance corridors? Things that are labeled. There was probably a sign that said "Door fuses" and she assumed they were for the corridors, not the rathtar doors.
Here's another great post, i highly recommend reading.
yep crashing all over the village for a hole 10 seconds you ignore how she is able to move a ship that she has only flown for a few seconds of pulling of turns like they were nothing yet HAN ******* SOLO could not stop the falcon from crashing on Star killer, she even flew it better than lando who had the ship Before han.
A mary sue can do no wrong, she let the monster go which magically helped everyone still so whats the point there? she still saved the day even when she " ***** up"
When fighting kylo she makes him forget his ability and skills somehow, even a Warrior who is wounded is still far superior to anyone one non trained in advanced combat(the guy killed the latest generation of jedi and she is able to kick his ass?) not to mention he just lost his ability to stop people/blaster bolts from moving or did rey stop him from doing that too?
She's a mary sue get over it. and what the **** argument was padame? almost no one like those characters to begin with.
People like you, complaining about her being a "mary sue" character, yet you clearly seem to have absolutely no knowledge of lore in the Star Wars universe. Especially how strong force users .
Why did they let finn deal with the creatures? they could have had a plot device where he had a old military trick to deal with them since he already knew about there existence? this is wait me and my buddies did when we got stuck in that massacre etc. No male has to be a weak coward who somehow went threw military training and learned jack **** but Desert vagabond has this all underlock down even when she ***** up.
God its not that hard to give certain characters weakness and strengths.
padme was a popular queen amongst her people. see the opening of EP II to see what the other side of society thought spoiler alert, her ships gets blown the **** out
she was competent at politics, but the fact that she and her friends were unable to curb palpatines excesses show how limited she was in that arena. what success she does have likely comes from charisma, her ability to judge people, and a lifetime spent in politics.
as for combat, she was competent and lucky. she avoided any mortal injuries, and snapped of a few bolts here and there. but this can be explained in that - as a queen - she would have received a deal of personal security training. Captain Panaka would have been responsible for that, if I'm not mistaken.
so while her life was, arguably, much happier, and more put together, her skillset was clearly limited, with her strengths being easily explicable.
Rey, on the other hand:
Tech. this is fine. she spends most of her time working with tech, so there's no reason for her not to be good with it. she shows a good understanding of various tech, but doesn't pull anything dumb out of nowhere. 8/10, would not complain
Piloting. this makes less sense, as we have no reason to assume rey has ever flown anything larger than a landspeeder. the tricks she pulls in the falcon are impressive (the dive down the engine nacelle of an executor-class star dreadnaught particularly so), though not exactly god-tier. despite the near crashes though, there's no good explanation for her piloting skills. there could be, but there isn't yet.
Combat: the fights in which she uses her staff, no complaints. she seems familiar with it, and doesn't pull anything dumb.
Lightsaber combat: this is one of the big ones. Rey has, as far as we (and apparently she) knows, no lightsaber training. while a decently disciplined user can hold, maybe even swing a saber without hurting themselves, she was up against kylo ren. and despite his wounds and unstable personality, he should at least have mastered basic saber proficiency (he'd need at least that much to take out the other jedi) and that really should be all it takes to win. just some simple training would easily tip the scales in his favour enough that the injuries wouldn't be enough to give rey a decent chance.
Force Techniques: this is the major one. makes no sense. force power, or potential, is innate. it's how good you can be, or how easily you can draw upon the force. but the **** Rey pulls needs training. some jedi do find themselves using force techniques before they're fully aware of their force sensitivity, but it's always basic stuff. force empathy (sensing the feelings of others). slight premonition (having the proverbial bad feeling, having an unsually good sense of how a card game might turn out, maybe even helping you stay out of danger in a blaster fight.) or simply channeling their emotions to strengthen themselves. so far, we've seen Rey use force persuade (a fairly complex ability, which has only been used occasionally by untrained jedi), and force pull (with enough power to counter Kylo Ren, a powerful and trained force user). if she had only used one of these techniques, or had been a little less effective at either, I'd let it slide. but power alone doesn't account for these skills - the training she lacks is important too, and the lack of it is what makes this feel out of place.
simply put, she's not ridiculously overpowered in any one area, but shes a bit too good at a lot of things which she has no reason to be good at. she displays far too much skill in areas where she has no training, and that's why she feels a bit like a mary sue.
I would've loved to see that dude just play along and start grinding on her. It would be a like a sex dance version of playing chicken to see who can take it farther before backing away
As much as I love Star wars, this movie left a good bit to be desired. I mean it didn't feel well fleshed out or even like it when through a rough draft period. Sorry, but I'm not going to lie and say that it was good when it wasn't.
