My main problem is that I don’t buy that Rey is a Mary Sue more than Luke was, and I don’t think he was either. If anything Luke was more of one because he was just a farmhand and practiced pilot that suddenly could hold his own in a shootout and blow up Death Stars with the force. At least Rey was established as a really tough person that could take care of herself long before she discovered the force. I don’t even like TFA yet I feel compelled to defend it against these hackneyed criticisms.
