But if the deal happened to where Fox got Star Wars earlier on, do people think Disney wouldn't have been able to buy Fox as it did? Would we have seen lots of better Star Wars material compared to what we got?
Disney allegedly cancelled the Clone Wars series in 2014 because it was "too graphic/too violent" than what Disney was used to at the time.

Like you could use the same method you brought back palpatine for him and it would have been fine.

Palptine shot lighting at Rey who simply blocked it and sent it at Palptine while he stood there taking it. Palptine should have fucking annihilated Rey. He took down three Jedi masters in seconds, fought off Yoda, beat Darth Maul. and fucking disabled an entire fleet and he can´t take on one former scrapper with like a year of training at most?! Bullshit.

Where the fuck where these Jedi before. Where they just sitting around with their thumbs of their asses during Order 66? There is no justification for Rey managing to beat Palptine. If Yoda could not do it then Rey sure as hell can´t.

If you got extra lightning, grab yo'self another lightsaber and the bois and push harder

Dudes lighting was strong enough to disable an entire fleet. That is not something should be able to just block without being a highly trained force users(which Rey is not.) But even if one was somehow able to block it there is no reason Palpatine could not just fucking throw Rey into that pit like he did with Ben or just you know take the lightsabers(which is possible when the power gap between two force users is so fucking large. See Yodas ¨fight¨ with Ventress in the Clone Wars)

I'm pretty sure that was more of a symbolic thing. Rey does have the force, which could connect her to other Jedi (and obviously did) but it doesn't make any sense that the Jedi voices that she heard actually contributed to the battle in any tangible way. If it was possible, why didn't Obi-Wan and Yoda give Luke a boost in his own battle with Palpatine? This scene, for better or worse, was the culmination of everything the Jedi did over the past several decades, but at the end of the day, they're dead. Rey was the one there, and Rey defeated Palpatine effectively alone.Andsed wrote:The Jedi had been around for thousands of years and there had been hundreds of thousands of Jedi.

Look, I agree, OP characters are no fun, especially when there's not a satisfactory explanation for why they're so powerful. But there is such a thing as natural talent. It exists in most activities. For instance, when my brother first picked up a guitar, within weeks he could outplay my friend who had been learning for several years. Or to use a Star Wars example, Anakin was driving a flipping podracer using the Force to aid his reflexes without even a proper understanding of what the Force was, much less proper training. Or why did Obi-Wan defeat Darth Maul when the guy who did most of Obi-Wan's training fell to Maul only moments before? By the logic you're using, that should have been impossible.
All that to say, I'm laying off the "Rey is stupid OP" criticism. I still don't love Rey as a character, but I don't see her victory over Palpatine as egregiously unrealistic. There's more to fights than just training, though obviously it's nearly always more beneficial to be fully trained than not. There are many facets of a fight to take into effect. It's not as simple as the more experienced fighter always winning. Sometimes the underdog manages to find the strength within themselves to win. That's how it is and that's as it should be.

Well, no, because being born of a Mandalorian does not make you a Mandalorian. It is a way of life, not an ethnicity. Their DNA comes from the planet Mandalore, but that all that there is.
