I could write an interesting script about Rey.
I don't want to, but I feel like I've got a better sense for what would work than Disney does.

Ya think she did cocaine? Idk, her eyeballs and her nose itching had me convinced for a while. But then the meme just kinda went away.

The problem with Mary Sue writing isn't the fact that it's a competent woman with a lot of skills.
The original Star Trek fanfic from which the term comes was written by a woman who wrote her own self insert to be this comically competent woman who is instantly extremely close friends with the entire main cast.
Basically the problem is that it's blunt and obvious fem-gooner tier writing.
>>
>>220760034
They need to start over with Luke waking up from a bad dream, canceling out those horrible sequel movies.

That one dude in star trek academy is a Gary Stu. He can literally do anything and everything. Reprogram advanced holograms, fight, fly a ship, master debater, running a tossed mile marathon and make minute rice in 57 seconds.

>>220760593
>>220760611
Incorrect, man.
The problem with the "Mary Sue" writing isn't the competence of the character, it's the fact of it being an obvious writer's self insert who the writer tries to pass off as as cool, lovable, and chummy with the main cast of whatever the Mary Sue character (male or female) is being inserted into, without doing any legwork to make it believable or interesting to the audience.
>>
>>220760694
There are at least two people two adore it. It's Kathleen Kennedy and Daisy Ridley.
>>
>>220760721
Its all part of the same package.
They always demean the original characters to try and uplift their shitty new ones, too.
Im sick of it. Its insultingly bad writing.
>>
>>220760061
Why didn't they write her well, then?
>>
>>220760852
Let's tone down the victimhood and the hyperbole a little bit.
The origin of the Mary Sue meme was a Star Trek fanfiction written by a woman who basically wrote a Star Trek episode about her own original character, a character who represented herself, named Mary Sue.
Mary Sue was competent at everything and immediately became close friends with Kirk, Spock, and Bones, and the whole fanfiction revolved around Mary Sue solving every problem and basically being the uncontested hero of the story.
This was bad writing because it's only really interesting to the woman who wrote it, who wanted to imagine herself in a relationship with all the main Star Trek characters.

It's not necessarily about putting down the old characters, it's just unskilled and frankly autistic writing from a female perspective.
Unfortunate that this type of writing ended up in scripts for the Star Wars movies, but it's not something to seethe about.
>>
>>220760956
I don't fucking know. It's actually baffling to me.
I can write a more compelling character than Rey and I am a shitposter on a Mongolian basket-weaving forum and not a Hollywood screenwriter.

It really seems they went out of their way to make her boring. I always thought Luke was kind of a pussy, but at least he had an interesting path.

She should turned evil and Kylo turned good. That's the better story.

Disney just wanted to play it safe, by the numbers.
>>
>>220761484
It's because she doesn't face any struggle or has to work for anything. Every victory is just given to her or the story bends itself backwards to solve the issue for her. Also, she keeps stealing other people's iconic shit (Anskin's saber, Luke X-Wing, Han's Falcon and Chewbacca, even Poe's BB-8), without having any iconic shit of her own.
That makes her a ridiculosly bland Mary Sue character.

Kek I didn't even realize how many iconic things she just took. It would have been cool to see a different staff lightsaber or something, but her design was to show up and use everybody's stuff better than they could.

I am hoping that at one point in the future Devon/Talon shows up to murder the fuck out of Rey, because she IS the last Palpatine and at last, Maul's revenge will be complete and we can then start focusing on characters that people actually give a fuck about. Also, it would serve as a nice "fuck you" given what the original TFA was supposed to be.
Let me dream.

That's stupid, the term is still "Mary Sue"

Disney is the best example of what happens when a company lets corporate bean counters take charge.
I’m sure anyone with an ounce of creativity has been chased out of their studios by cut throat Ivy League educated corporate strivers who think their Harvard MBA means they somehow know a thing or two about story writing. After all they’ve been told they are always the smarted person in every room since they were 4 and have the grades to prove it so why wouldn’t they be able to do a better job making films than people who are actually talented

Probably not. Star Wars as a franchise is dead and Rey is the least interesting character the series has ever focused on.

No...
Looting implies that he stole something for himself that can't be replaced.
I think the word you're looking for is he "took inspiration" from Greek and Norse mythology.
Also
A key difference between what Disney's done with Star Wars and what Tolkein did with European mythology, is that people like Tolkein's work.
>>
>>220766098
you forgot bible
also in any case the argument falls because it now hinges on liking something
not creating something brand new

One of the best parts of Star Wars is the porn desu. Carrie Fisher did warn her about it too.

Wrong. Most people actively despise Rey "Skywalker" Palpatine.
>>
No one here has mentioned that SW: M&G is based on a TV show that less than half the US has access to. That figure is even lower in other countries. So the Disney execs intentionally released a movie that over half of the country feels out of the loop on. SW:NJO will not have that same problem. But it will still have the problem where people are burned out on SW and do not trust Disney to make anything good.

Yes. Rey is sexy and her padawans would be sexualized by this board.

The woman who wrote the Mary Sue story was intentionally parodying all the bad star trek fanfic written by women by combining all their retarded ideas into one joke character.

>A Movie is always self contained
This movie is the repackaged aborted season 4 of the TV show. It wasn't originally intended to exist in a vacuum.
