[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Force healing is not something just any Jedi can do whenever they want.  It's a light side ability and not everyone has it.  Rey developing it makes sense since she's very strong in the light side.  Kylo being able to do it makes less sense EXCEPT for the fact that (he said during the movie) the two of them are a force "dyad" so two parts of the same whole.  [/quote]

Exactly. That has implications for what they can do. Also, different Jedis can do different things. We don’t know everything the Force can do, so it would make sense that we wouldn’t have seen the totality of what could be done in the original trilogy. The Force is mysterious and no one ever said “this is everything the Force can do.”

Rey is supposed to be extremely strong in the Force. She was set up to finally defeat Palpatine — something no other Jedi could do. Wouldn’t it make sense she could access abilities others couldn’t? Kylo Ren was similarly strong, but not quite as strong as her.

I loved the movie and [b]don’t get all the nit picking, frankly.[/b] [/quote]

Start with the fact that it’s women who ultimately save them all, and you’ll figure it out fast.[/quote]

DP. Okay, you are obviously just dim. If that's your criticism, you can't be taken remotely seriously. My favorite is 4, and men save them all there. Leia's role in 4 is smaller and less complex than the roles of the multiple men in 9. Yet I manage to enjoy it deeply.

I thought you were going to have something substantive to say, but you're just a whiny incel.[/quote]

You misunderstood my point.  I’m saying that a lot of the nitpicky criticism is ultimately about certain people being upset that the movie was woman-focused,  and rather than saying that out loud (because they know how that would be received) they’re trying to shred it based on trivial things.  My comment was a criticism of those people, not a vote of approval.[/quote]

I support women, but the forced casting (like the ladies gauntlet run in endgame) seems so forced (like the antenna guardian woman should fighting alongside Captain Marvel and Cobalt Pepper?)

SW ROS in general had a good mix and I don’t think I saw any girl squad moments (I know there were plenty of white male squads before but tit for tat doesn’t work)[/quote]

So you’re that it’s forced and unrealistic that in an alternative fantasy universe there could be all-female warrior groups just like there are all-male warrior groups?  [/quote]

No it’s unrealistic b/c one of their females main power was making people sleepy.  [/quote]
