[QUOTE="Zardnaar, post: 8876550, member: 6716779"] Rians concept was fine just not in part 2 of a trilogy and part 8 of an overarching story marketed as the Skywalker saga. Rey didn't need to be a Skywalker she did need to have some sort of established link to the OT characters. IMHO. Luke's Star pupil for example. No one would complain about her force proficiency if she was a Jedi knight to begin with. They did kind of hint about something about the force awakening but never really followed up on it. Rey equivalent in legends essentially grew up over a 20 year period in the books and had development similar to Ahsoka I suppose. She was Luke's niece but there were plenty of other non Skywalker Jedi/Sith as well. Luke essentially ended up the most powerful Jedi of all time but it took him 40 years to get there. Ahsoka is the female Jedi that's popular she's had good character development over the last 15 years. Shhe was kinda crap early on Jar Jar Binks but better writing redeemed her. Kinda funny how the current writers are duplicating the worst if the old EU without hitting it's high notes though. Overall Disney's actually doing better they messed up the ST and BoBF. Apart from that they're doing reasonably well. [/QUOTE]
