“Worrying” (maybe too strong a term) about this kind of stuff is also weird.
I’m not too concerned with the time which passes within the movie - ANH took place in less than a week as well. But the bigger issue is the lack of a time jump between movies, which is where you can hide a lot of skill progression.
Agreed. This is a technique Johnson should have kept from the previous trilogies. Abrams made it tough with TFA’s ending, but not impossible.
I still don’t like Rey using mind tricks as quickly as she did, but I could accept TLJ Rey more readily if some time had passed after TFA.
