If you needed more proof that Yea Forums is inhabited by unfuckable losers with 2 neurons to rub together.
Anakin Skywalker is more of a Gary Stu than Rey is a Mary Sue since Rey isn't even as central to the plot as Anakin was.
Seriously, Rey lifts shitload of rocks without effort. Only 2 days after learning about the force!
Ripley was a competent female, which makes her seem annoying at first
Your favorite females incl Rey are just whores pulling solutions to the plot out of nowhere which is like tricking the audience into thinking someone is strong or smart while infact they are not but you can call people who are skeptical and see through your nonsense evil sexists and white nazi's because that's good advertising you cancerous shill
you have to try harder with your b8
He is.
Anakin is central to the prequel plot while Rey isn't even part of the Skywalker clan.

Like Anakin would?
Thats the Reylian.

Anakin wasn't lifting rocks 2 days after learning about the force
Yeah i hate that the term Mary Sue completely changed meaning since TFA.
A female lead in star wars is really cringe. Woman are weak and stupid, I'm sorry you effeminate bugmen and catty roasties can't handle the truth of something as blatantly obvious as that. Really is no need to beat around the bush.
>TEEEEEEEETH
my first thought
I don't mind female characters because I actually don't mind looking at women. I know you prefer looking at guys but hey, everyone is different.

Makes the Falcon better. Not just expertly pilots it, but improves it. Then pilots it so she can steer the guns into hitting tie fighters without the turret moving
Yeah bro I love Daisey Ridley and Brie Larson and Emilia Clarke
If only their male co stars could take lessons from them

She had to survive from scraps and learn to salvage and fix ships on top of pilot ships because her trade was her being a mechanic.
Anakin was a gifted slave boy.
That's all women have been throughout all of human history you seething cunt. Sorry I'm not pretending women are anything more than dumb holes to fuck, maybe you can go on Reddit and get some woke brownie points.
>Mary Sue = Competent Woman.
Correct. Competent women doesn't exist and is a retarded feminist-marxist anti-male fantasy.
i only remember her clumsily tearing a piece with wires sticking out and saying she boipossed something
Yaaaaasss
Clap at those incels, fucking slayyy
After about 16 years of training and fighting in a bloody war on the front lines. Whereas Rey has been a jedi all of... a year? At most? all of it without training?
>>took down the entire Jedi Order by himself
The clones were probably not in your copy of the movie I presume.
>>took down the Sith by himself
After he sneak attacked his own mentor, yeah.
Those are failures, which a Mary Sue simply doesn't do.
>>when he fell to the dark side, killed a powerful Jedi who could use dark side powers
That was Palpatine, Annie just cut off his arm.
Now, if you just talked about kiddo Annie, that would be a different story, but teen Anakin was just a whiny atomic bomb.
>Ray didn't kill kids
>she also didn't destroy the Jedi order
Mary sues tend to be on the good side of morality, yes.
The time between TFA and TLJ is less than 2 days, not years
This. The only competent woman generally look like potatoes and were treated like shit by men for being autistic. The kind of chicks you always swipe left to on dating apps but that's about it.
True. I was being very generous.
The fact that we love anime is proof that we don't hate competent women - we just hate feminism
Even if Anakin was perfect, he would be called a "Gary Stu" not a "Mary Sue", unless he decided to transition and become a woman.
Well, he was already acting like a woman most of the time, he really had a histrionic and emotional temperament. If the OT was released now, he would be a trannie.
Did Midichlorians do that to her teeth?
I find its more down to the fact everyone fawns over her, all the old cast love her for some reason and everyone she meets either loves her and wants to protect her (i.e. finn's ENTIRE motivation) or hates her and is consumed with the desire to kill her. She's thrust into the middle of this whole thing for no apparent reason and we're given no reason to like her.
I feel like she's only a mary sue because TFA had a story that felt like fanfiction and in cramming in all these "remember this???" moments she feels like a self insert into all the "cool" bits of star wars rather than a force sensitive loner.
They could have made rey work if they either left the old cast out of it and made her a new super powerful person thats not at the expense of the old guard, or if they toned down her powers or at least gave an excuse for her being powerful (and TLJ's "light meets dark" is lore breaking and lazy so fuck off)
really? force awakens opens with her selling scrap parts for food
didn't strike me as a top notch mechanic or pilot
>After about 16 years of training and fighting in a bloody war on the front lines
Exactly.
Anakin: Did things with enough training.
Rey: Did nothing because she wasn't trained enough.
How hard is it to understand? How dumb are you?
Also taking the obvious bait but you have to remember women are fucking retarded and actually have the brains of children.
>Mary sues tend to be on the good side of morality, yes.
I accept that as your concession that Rey did diddly squat and accusing her of being a Mary Sue while DOING NOTHING YET despite having potential like Anakin had potential is proof that you're a retard who calls any protagonist you don't like a Mary Sue.
Hey guys :)
>The only competent woman generally look like potatoes and were treated like shit by men for being autistic
>REEEEEE pretty women can't be competent they're just there to make my peepee hard REEEEE
Embarrassing.
Competency from women is unrealistic.
How's it going David?
he was a podracer for literal years even though he was 10 years old. All force sensitives have innate talents, which is why Luke btfo'd womp rats. Rey is literally a crazy bag lady that rummages through bins for a living.
>we
>really? force awakens opens with her selling scrap parts for food
Exactly. She's a scrap seller who knows how to fix ships because she's been taking them apart to buy food.
>didn't strike me as a top notch mechanic or pilot
Just like how a slave boy doesn't strike anyone as a good podracer? Retard, at least she was actually there tinkering and making shit. As soon as Anakin got a hold of a podracer he was an instant expert.
Well people here push Ripley and Sarah Connor for a Reason...We see their Path of becoming competent(Sarah Connor)or we ser a competent worker rising above the odds(Ripley) and yet both show vulnerability.
Rey out of nowhere are liked by everyone,overcomes every struggle,and defeated any enemy when we only know that she pick up scraps in the desert.Beating way better developed characters (Luke)doesnt Help either.
In Captain Marvel case i believe people is more mad about what the actress Said over everything.
Unironically, have sex.
this. it's never enough for the jew to give us a strong woman, they must have a fantasy level woman that breaks physics for us to enjoy.
>you have to remember women are fucking retarded and actually have the brains of children
So the truth come out.
It's not that "Rey is a Mary Sue" it's "Rey is a woman therefore she can't be competent because I view women as retarded with the brains of children."
I'm gay, how would that help?
>he
>I accept that as your concession that Rey did diddly squat
>allows the resistance to escape certain death by being extremely powerful at the force for no reason
I see that you run out of arguments on why Ray isn't a mary sue and Anakin is one, and have to resort to memetic lines. Eh, typical. You have been spouting incorrect points and stuff that didn't even happen in the movie as proof. I didn't really expect any better from you. Until you actually manage to disprove my arguments, I win.
>he was a podracer for literal years even though he was 10 years old
Wait, wait, wait. If it's Anakin who's around doing podracing as a hobby, you claim he's an expert.
However, when it's Rey who's around doing scavenger work with enough knowledge on parts to become a mechanic, you say that's impossible?
Even though Rey has been around ships more than Anakin has been podracing?
well it might help you stop being gay
How would having more gay sex make me less gay?
>on why Ray isn't a mary sue and Anakin is one
You didn't refute my point that Ray has done LESS than Anakin has because Anakin has TRAINED LONGER than she has, you absolute retarded mongoloid.
No you’re not.
have (not gay) sex
Why are people unironically talking about this irrelevant and unremarkable trilogy?
Like, nobody cares about Star Wars. Especially not the new ones. Go to any normie who watched the movie, and ask them the names of sequel characters. They don't know, remember or care.
I sure hope you are a pretty woman who thinks they are competent... if not, big yikes on this post

That's kinda homophobic, don't you think?
Sodomy is a sin.

I want every single person who hates women to watch this video.
Bored so I figured I could bait out some salty women and onionboys
Yes that is the truth anymore questions?
So is being an incel, yet here you are.
A good female character is Nebula from MCU. She is flawed, yet still contributes positively to the story and to her group. She has made many mistakes and her character has developed to be better because of them.
A bad female character is Captain Marvel from MCU. This is parallel to Rey. Neither of them have a character flaw. Their powers were given to them with zero downsides. They walk around immune to all harm and masters of every skill before they even knew such a skill existed. They exist and things just occur around them. They are worthless to the story, pure mary-sues.
Just several more.
REEEEE more at Brie Larson's movie making a billion dollars.
REEEEE more at Arya Stark killing the Night King.
REEEEE more at Asgard being ruled by a YAS QUEEN Slay.
Just continue REEEEing.
These are grown up adult women who are allowed to have sex drive cars, take drugs and drink alcohol and yet they act so immature and childish, and we are supposed to treat them equally? No, act like a child get treated like a child
Women are literally children you can have sex with
Who's to say Ray isn't flawed? For all her potential, she barley does diddly dick in two movies compared to Luke and Anakin.
> Ray has done LESS than Anakin has because Anakin has TRAINED LONGER than she has
>ray manages to save the resistance with almost no training while Anakin compeltely fails at being both a jedi and a sith even with allhis training and mentoring
You are an idiot that doesn't understand that a Mary Sue isn't someone who "does things", it's someone who doesn't do any wrong and appears perfect. Ray is too efficient at what she does.
Ray may have done less, but she has never once failed at what she did, while Anakin's life has been a story sown with failure.
I expected that you would know what the words you were using meant, but looks like I overestimated you.
>you absolute retarded mongoloid.
Pretty ironic coming from a "man" that doesn't even remember what happened in the movies, although that can be the fault of dementia, not retardation.
>being celibate is a sin
Says the manchild posting on Yea Forums being taken care of by his mother.
Mary Sues are toxic not because of their superhuman skills and traits, but because of the way the plot and all the other characters suddenly have to orbit them.
To unfairly pick on one, let's look at the Michael Burnham character in Star Trek Discovery. She shows up, and suddenly the whole of the rest of the crew can't do anything without her. She's like a character in an RPG who has hacked the stats to have a 100 rating in everything from hand-to-hand combat to intergalactic diplomacy to starfighter dogfighting. Suddenly, everyone in the rest of the team is completely helpless without her. One wonders how they ever even managed until she showed up to save the day week in, week out. This Mary Sue feels especially out of place in Star Trek, which was always about a crew of different individuals with different skills using them in unique ways to save the day. Often, the bad guys are mono-minded acolytes completely under the control of a narcissistic dictator, just to reinforce this point.
Those arent questions.
>Prove my strawman wrong
ftfy
Still don't have a date, eh? Incel?
Lmao, are you calling this a flaw?
>when you are so angry and butthurt that people don't like your shitty Mary sues that you start having a meltdown on Yea Forums of all places
Do you get off on being salty or are you trying to convince us women aren't mentally retarded? Keep it up regardless it's great.
Nice projection
I never said her mechanical skills were impossible, I was talking about her earthbending. Baby Anakin, who has had as much exposure as rey to the force, couldn't have thrown darth maul across the room witht he force.
Also, who is to say Rey has been piloting? She has gotten to know how a ship works perhaps, explaining why she could fix the Falcon as they fled Jakku. But she aint been piloting shit. She barely got enough attention and recognition to get a portion of bread from the junkyard people. Ani fixed and piloted his pods.
>Mary Sue isn't someone who "does things", it's someone who doesn't do any wrong and appears perfect. Ray is too efficient at what she does.
>personal definition
If you're going to move the goalpost every time with Mary Sue with such a nebulous description of it, then all protagonists by your definition of Mary Sue are Mary Sues and it'snot a valid criticism for any protagonist.
I agree. It's nice of you to project hard on women your own childishness.
>Baby Anakin, who has had as much exposure as rey to the force, couldn't have thrown darth maul across the room witht he force.
Lifting rocks is unimpressive because when you try to throw a fellow force user they're resist with their own force powers, retard.
Rocks can't resist the force with their own force powers the way a Jedi or Sith can.
YOU'RE A MORON. Rey isn't a Mary Sue. Mary Sue is a buzzword you can't even define correctly.
Hi roastie
Roasties that post on Yea Forums have it worse off than the rest of us. You must really hate yourself.
According to reality:
>A competent woman that is also attractive doesnt exist
he is kinda right tho, Mary Sue iss a term for a woman that has outrage aptitude for something/talent beyond expectation/more output than is possible from her input. Rey has all these things. She is dedicated to the resistance and works hard for them, but we should have gotten at least a training montage in Episode 8 to show her progressing. She didn't even change clothes whilst on Luke's planet.
Good thing I didn't move any goalposts then.
>all protagonists by your definition of Mary Sue are Mary Sues
No, because some protagonists actually fail once or twice. Unlike your precious Ray.
You have to remember the techniques of your forefathers when dealing with the roastie you just reply with,
TITS OR GTFO.
With just several days of so-called “training”.

Being central to the plot does not automatically mean one's a sue. He was the fucking main character and the story was about his downfall, how could he not be central to the plot?
>Lifting rocks is unimpressive because when you try to throw a fellow force user they're resist with their own force powers, retard.
>Rocks can't resist the force with their own force powers the way a Jedi or Sith can.
I think you are missing the point user, it isn't about who is resiting it's about aptitude. Luke couldn't do a handstand and lift a single rock on Degobah. He fell the fuck over.
If the analogy didn't satisfy you the first time, imagine Anakin flying his pod around and when he won he turned to Wato and said "suck it you fucking Jewish slave trader!" and force threw a chair at his head or something.
At that very instant, anyone with sense would have thrown their arms up and left the cinema.
>YOU'RE A MORON. Rey isn't a Mary Sue. Mary Sue is a buzzword you can't even define correctly.
You might be refering to another naon, cos my comment about Ani being a podracer was my first, I aint tried to define shit.
Whiteknight somewhere else where it is welcome, like plebbit.
If ROTJ was a stand alone movie, Luke would be a Gary Stu, because he succeeds at EVERYTHING. Hamill probably wanted him to remain as such.
Thats the crux of the issue. A man that trained hard (take Conan for example) looks the part. Hes strong, hes clearly worked hard both with his body and with a specific skill, for example a sword. You can spot this attribute easily, since men that are strong look strong.
A "strong" woman, doesnt look like Gal Gadot, or even Rey. These frail women probably would be knocked over by a stiff breeze. Subconsciously we notice this. Thats why some fictional female heroines need the added element of some supernatural ascpet to counter-act that body prejiduce.
If you had cast some actually physically fit/competent looking women for Rey etc., the outrage would be less.
She is a Mary Sue, not only for that fact alone, but because she never trains, but has an inate 100% skill mastery after trying once. This is not a coincidence. This is how women see the world. Women actually believe that men are born with their looks, their body and their "talent". Meaning, they dont understand the hardship a man must endure to become a world famous soccer player for example. They believe that Ronaldo just steps on the fields plays well, then goes home and chills. They dont understand the sacrifice, the willpower and the discipline it takes to be a "hero".
THATS why she is a Mary Sue.
>Whiteknight somewhere else where it is welcome, like plebbit.
says the assblasted Luke cuck who migrated from reddit after being told to shut the fuck up
But it would not really have worked considering it drops in right in the middle of shit, but yes, with some context, that counts.
It would still make for a somewhat good experience even if it was a stand alone flick.
>Tries to rescue Han. Gets captured
>Tries to appeal to Vader by handing himself in. Vader ignores his pleas and turns him over to the Emperor
Yep, he sure did succeed in everything he did. It's why smart people hold him up as the poster child of Gary Stus.
>says the assblasted Luke cuck who migrated from reddit after being told to shut the fuck up
kek, are you upset that you'll never get to wring out those nasty gauze wrapping Rey wear and drink her pit sweat?
>This virgin cuck that all caps his argument to defend a literally fictional woman from male aggression
The absolute state
This is obviously the same tranny shilling all the Brie Larson threads. Just go back to tumblr you filthy tranny faggot.
>manages to succeed even when he fails
Based Luke, epitome of Gary Stu-ness.
so if I'm geting her argument right, they picked a "frail" girl to play Rey for the ability to appeal to us as buff women are a bit gross, so they now have to offset her with some magic powers? That makes sense, but I would say that stronger women can carry the role and not be a sue.
Sticking to the Conan analogy, Grace Jones is a fucking athlete of a woman and looks like an amazonian. She is also stunningly good looking.
>She is a Mary Sue, not only for that fact alone, but because she never trains, but has an inate 100% skill mastery after trying once. This is not a coincidence. This is how women see the world.

No argument from me here user, the eternal woman does indeed do this, and I think it is the central part of why women who cry for equality are so cringy often. They do not aprreciate what it takes to make a civilization work. Shit, forget the soccer players, think of the sewage worker. Could they ever in their lives imagine what it takes to run a sewage treatment plant and keep teh complex machinery from overheating, stop it from breaking down or make sure everyone is coordinated. Let alone go into the pipes for the dirty work.
I haven't seen 1 (ONE) Yea Forums poster who called wonder woman a mary sue. fuck off.
how was it a failure to try and rescue Vader's soul, knowing he'd be turned in but was ready to face the threat. He literally turned himself into Jabba in the same movie to spring a similar rescue operation.
maybe, but only if Luke were an already legendary figure. You couldn't stitch the first 30 minutes of New Hope (up to luke getting the saber off Ben) to ROTJ with a timeskip in between.
Well, I was being ironic, since getting captured was part of his plan in the first place.
Luke invented Baneposting before it was a thing.
*so if I'm getting YOUR argument right
Just have a really lengthy opening text crawl bro!
Actually a mary sue is female character forced into a male franchise to garner more female viewership. Its jewry of the highest order

Ripley isn't inexplicably overpowered in her setting but still manages to be the most grounded, and usually the most capable character.

It's not about being competent. It's about instantly being the best at everything she encounters just to pus a narrative that boys are stupid and girls are the ultimate bad-ass, bypassing all natural character development.
