Seriously? That scene where she flies through the vacuum of space like something out of Man of Steel... Holy crap who made this garbage?

Rian Johnson and Kathleen Kennedy should be lined up and shot for this.

I must've missed where we were told she had no Force training whatsoever in the past 20 years.

And so? Luke went from kinda force sensitive to using it to blow up the Death Star in about a day.

I am sick of people blaming sexism for the hate his movie gets . Are there sexist people who dislike the movie yeah. But these movies are just bad.

The ship was moving, she got blown out , so to get back to the place that she was she would have to catch up with the ship.

I'm honestly not sure why this is such a big deal.

Leia is Luke's brother so she's got a ton of potential and 20-odd years to learn to tap into it. In the old EU, she became a Jedi master. Obviously she didn't here (which I'm kinda ticked about) but sustaining your body and moving through a vacuum don't seem like particularly strenuous tasks for a force-wielder to accomplish.

...One thing that is odd about the scene is the fact that she manages to fly back to the fleeing cruiser which is presumably moving at top speed. Just how fast is she going, exactly? o_o

I think the vast majority of the general public would disagree with that.

my theater collectively laughed in confusion during that part


I don't see what's controversial about that statement.

Moving something through a vacuum has got to be easier than moving something through air/against gravity/etc. There's less working against you.

Force healing is already a thing in canon. Sustaining your body seems easier than healing it. To me it makes intuitive sense that the Force could cover for you for a bit if you needed to hold your breath or keep your organs where they needed to be.

Like

There's also EU precedent (yeah, lol, whatever) when Luke gets shot down in Courtship of Princess Leia and floats down to the surface of the planet from space.

It's fair that the force can let you move through space - it also drained all of her energy

This makes no sense. The First Order was supposed to be the rag tag remnants of the Empire. The Republic should have control of most of the galaxy even if they lost the Hosnian system in the previous movie...

Why the fuck are First Order authorities running things on that planet that Finn and Rose are on?

Ugh ya know what I'm not even gonna try and make sense of all this.

shouldn't she have been going as fast as the ship? inertia and all that?

I liked that she had advanced enough (offscreen) to save herself here. my first complaint was her surviving the explosion in the first place, but something something plot armor; whatever. The biggest issue I have with the scene were the just terrible effects. it looked horribly unfinished.

Wow so what the actual fuck did these morons do to the Luke Skywalker character?

Kylo Ren's evil cuz Luke sensed the Dark side in him and literally was gonna murder his nephew in his sleep for even potentially being evil? Wow that is stupid and just completely unlike Luke.

That is literally nonsensical....

Yeah, agreed with that.

The logic is that Luke was closed off to the force, but it's still stupid. Like they heard people questioning Rey being able to beat Kylo Ren in TFA, and they doubled down.
