Alien 3 > SWST borefests
Oh boy... Not even going to bother going into detail on this. Rey's poor development in both of her movies alone is proof that they are piss poor in establishing character arcs. Kylo Ren is the only remotely interesting character in the ST. But naturally you'll dismiss any valid criticism over that as the bashers going for "desperate measure" or whatever nonsense. Way too many SW fans take it to extremes and act like zealots over nothing worth crying about; you're absolutely correct about that - but Rey being a Mary Sue is the one thing the bashers are 100% justified in saying because she is the epitome of one.
What am I, chopped liver?
Oh man, that's like the most hypocritical thing you've ever said here.
But it's OK, I'm a hypocrite too.
