I’m in Australia, genius. Yes I saw it at midnight. You guys are like two days ahead of everyone else? That's so cool! P.S. Glad you got to see it - sorry it sucked. I saw it midnight Wednesday night/ Thursday morning.

She’s just a force sensitive like all Jedis and others not in the Jedi order. And that’s no spoiler. As to her parentage, I won’t reveal. What the fuck? Not even Anakin, whose midiclorian levels (ugh) were through the roof, had the sort of ability that she does.

Why would Rey's Mary Sue powers from TFA need spoiler tags? If you're talking about plot points in the new movie, please use spoiler tags. TFA isn't the new one, TLJ is. Rey was a Mary Sue all through TFA. That's not a spoiler. It's just bad storytelling from the first one. I'm not even sure if Rey is still a raging Sue in TLJ.

Apparently it's about a last remaining band of Jedis called the ' Force Kin'. Looking forward to it.

For me personally, at the time of posting, it's 0745 hours, Thursday, December 14, 2017.

I was just kidding about Australia being two days ahead of America. That would be a neat trick, though. My time right now is 11:20pm Wednesday evening, December 13, 2017. I am in Israel (which is 7 hours ahead of Eastern Time in the U.S.)

Do they explain (or even hint at an explanation for) Rey's super powers or are we still expected to just accept that she's special? I have no doubt that if she had a dick between her legs you'd just accept the specialness of the character without a moment's hesitation. What? You mean like Luke who had to be trained by two Jedi before he could even do the very basics of Jedi shit? Rey not only knew that she had powers (suddenly form nowhere) but she also knew exactly how to use them. Zero training required, you dumb prick! So why not take your vagina and go fill it with sand, moron. Meanwhile, if anyone would care to explain how a piece of fiction ESTABLISHES certain rules within the narrative then ignores those very same established rules in later installments... I'm all ears. Does the film address it?

I am in Israel (which is 7 hours ahead of Eastern Time in the U.S.) Which makes you approximately 8 hours and 30 minutes behind me. I live in rural South Australia. I'm not actually in the outback, but I can see it from my kitchen window.
So all I can say is, "G'day from the future!"

Take care of the future for us - we'll be along shortly!

What? You mean like Luke who had to be trained by two Jedi before he could even do the very basics of Jedi shit? You mean like the way Luke was able to see the sensor ball and deflect its shots while wearing a mask after just two or three sentences of coaching? It's part of Star Wars canon that some people are just born being good with the Force and that it manifests itself sometimes without training. And again: I know for a fact this wouldn't be an issue for you or anyone else if she were male.

It's part of Star Wars canon that some people are just born being good with the Force and that it manifests itself sometimes without training. Yes but 1) Luke knows he has abilities by this point and 2) this particular ability is hardly mind blowing. Rey meanwhile 1) knows absolutely nothing! She literally just decides... ' hey, I wonder if i can make this guard do what I say for some reason. I have no reason for believing that I can but screw it, let's give it a shot' and 2) she uses an ability that has been shown to be extremely difficult to master (Luke, in fact, demonstrates how far he's come in Return of the Jedi by using this particular ability). The earlier films establish that you don't just randomly know how to use these abilities. Yoda even thinks Luke is too old to learn how to master them (he ain't much older than Rey). It's extremely bad story telling. And again: I know that you're an idiot. If Rey was a man, I'd be asking exactly the same question. HOW!?

I'm skeptical simply for the fact critics are raving over it. They raved over Force Awakens and it was total shit and a retread of the original, and not in a Tarantino-esque homage way either. You aren't kidding. I gave it 2 out of 10. The scene where Kylo Ren leaves Mary Sue alone with one stormtrooper I kept expecting Dr Evil to pop up. JJ Abrams is the worst modern day director. He makes Michael Bay look like Cecil B Demille.
