Rey goes to bring kylo ren over to the light side but fails miserably
She also gets captured in tfa and is also the only good guy to miss a gun shot in tfa
But yes. She never makes mistakes
And?
Man the Anti-SJW brigade is just as annoying as the SJWs themselves. Jumpin at shadows and seeing enemies where there are none.
I was supporting your statement. Many are forgetting that he was stationed at Starkiller base as mentioned and had a change in assignment. Optimus Prime was a librarian at one time in the comics. . . . . .

There are a few things in here that I didnât know. Surprised that one continuity error wasnât removed in the Special Edition.
[/quote]Behold, the sequel:
Some of which has been discussed here, but it is a nice refresher.
My bad bruh. I was hella confused. Lol
This was my response to that women could do no wrong in the new Star Wars universeâŚCaptain Phasma is pretty much the biggest failure so far. Despite losing to a janitor in Last Jedi, she was also responsible for the destruction of the Starkiller Base by lowering the shield.
A full fledged storm trooper with no combat experience. Anyway none of this changes what I or rcaido said. How is a ex-janitor taking out
"a 6ft 7 super armor bitch"and how is Finn being [in sanitation] add anything to the story besides a cheap laugh; it doesnât even have a pay-off like they get stuck in a trash compactor or something.
Also because the movie puts humor over storytelling we the audience is left speculating how a guy goes from cleaning toilets to one of Kylo Renâs personal escorts.
Like I said poor screenwriting.
In a New Hope, the main character is a farmboy from Tatooine that was shooting wamp rats and going on blue milk runs prior to becoming an expert pilot on a ship he has never flown with no combat experience. He evades veteran officers in the Imperial Navy, takes out enemy artillery, blows up a TIE Fighter, and destroys the Empireâs largest technical achievement (at the time) because plot armor.
Did we watch the same movie? Finn got his ass kicked by Phasma. He only win cuz he got lucky and was able to hit her after she thought the fight was over.
Yaâll are fucking dumb.
Didnât she also lose her blaster weapon for no reason between cuts?
And Poe was a dumb ass and got whole squadrons killed, they got killed as he refused to follow orders.
A demotion is taking his punishment soft. Were talking capital offense here with refusing orders and the major lost of life because he refused.
Leia went way too easy on Poe for the shit he pulled. They shouldnât bust Poe down to captain, they should bust him down to private and mopping the floors as his new duty.
He lost a whole bomber squadron, in the real world that a possible life in imprisonment or even a battlefield execution.
On top of that, Poe is lucky Leia only stun him for the mutiny. The Resistance has every right to kick him out, imprison him for life or just kill him at that point.
Here is what happens if you are guilty of Mutiny in the US Military

But in actually a regular Storm Trooper would double as a Janitor and as well as any other menial jobs the first order needs.
If you were not at least a NCO, the enlisted expected to keep their work place maintained and clean.
In the actual real worlds military, most lower enlisted ranks all double as Janitors anyways. Floors still needed to be mopped. Ask anyone in the service, ask Navy or Marine Corps personnel about polishing all the brass work. Any exposed metal is to be keep clean and highly polished.
Everything is expected to be keep immaculately clean, a military group like the First Order expect every Storm Trooper to keep his or her armor spotless, clean, highly polished and keep their gear serviceable and maintained.
Super Star Destroyers and Star bases like the Death Star or Star Killer Base would have lower enlisted doing the menial jobs on top of their normal patrol duties and what else is their military occupational specialty.
Fin was a grunt, he does basic grunt work.
The way they made Poe into a hot-headed moronâŚjust one of many problems with this shitty movie.
Although keep in mindâ He wasnât alone. All the male characters were made into blundering morons (or horrendous failures like Luke).
Edit: Also the hate train continuesâŚ
Disneyâs next movie
The Adventures of Finn FN-2187: The Janitor Years
Shit real armed forces people do
Vacuum the dust out of a parking lot.
Sometimes there a reason, sometimes its becuase you fuck up and you get extra work to do.
And if your really fucked up
Play Stupid Games, Win stupid prizes. This guy won having to mop the road in the rain for something he obviously fucked up on.
I am sure anyone else in on SRK who was in the military, any branch can confirm this.
Funny because I was thinking that Finn was Solo 2.0. Also, how the hell do you surprise Phasma with that hit. Thatâs like me coming right off the street breaking into the home of an army ranger and catching him with a surprise hit.
Yeah that was A New Hope though, a film that was written far better, with far better characterization. I tend to give the OT a little more leeway,ăbut Iâll give you that one.
Honestly that scene was so dumb my brain mostly deleted it. Between BB-8 driving an AT-ST, the bad cgi and the blast miraculously taking out every one just so we could have an anti-climactic showdown between Finn and Phasma, my brain did an emergency shut down; I started having prequel flashbacks.
Iâm more critical of A New Hope than a lot of people, but Iâm inclined to give Lucas somewhat of a pass here (especially since Iâve seen people actually try to defend Rey by claiming Luke was somehow perfect). Luke was basically a barnstormer in this WW-inspired setting. He spent his life flying high speed through canyons and shooting small targets, which is exactly what he does in his X-Wing (a craft that is allegedly not all that different from flying his T-16âŚaccording to his pal who grew up doing the same thing).
He had a distinct force advantage, but wasnât actually shown as an expert pilot, especially since he nearly took himself out and was only shown getting a kill against a TIE that had tunnel vision (and Luke was just doing what he had always doneâŚfollowing Biggs). He only survived the battle, because he was narrowly saved twice. In fact, Lukeâs entire character arc (starting from the instant he leaves home all the way to the conclusion of Endor) is practically nothing but him getting in over his head and having to be rescued over and over and over. He couldnât do anything without needing to be saved.
There is a cut scene where Biggs tell the flight commander Luke is the best Bush pilot in the outer rim territories
Luke did fly the T-16 Skyhopper on Tatooine, its the same craft as the model he was playing with in the garage.
Plus anyone who ever watch a Japanese Giant Mecha anime know that angsty teens makes the best pilots
And Japan did it before Lucas.
Then donât talk to me, Iâm not interested in talking to someone who doesnât remember the movie.
