To be fair, the whole thing is an error, regardless of rationalizing it … but, can be overlooked since there isn’t much one can do.
Although it was a visually interesting thing with the TIE vs Rey, it would have been better if it wasn’t that to avoid the plot hole on JJ’s part. So many overlooked things in this movie. Oye.
Yes there Is! You remove the epic but flawed tie backflip and have it that Kylo is just closing in on them while remaining in the ship, thus eliminating the tug o war and having Rey “kill chewie” out of fear rather than anger.
EDIT: Damn, I missed a whole page of comments. I’ll catch up later.
