I’m impressed by how someone managed to write the worst Mary Sue put to film.
Most people manage to frick it up, if only by accident, by adding some positive character trait.

Leia was not just useful but instrumental, throughout the original trilogy. Nobody had an issue with it, because it made sense for a hot-headed rebel princess to be competent, and she was competent.
It made no sense for Rey to master force abilities she had never heard of a week ago with minimal effort or tutelage.
Leia and Mon Mothma the Rebel Alliance leader are in the SW from 1977.
Leia's biggest contribution was providing cover for Han while he tried to get a door open. And what the hell did Mon Mothma do on screen aside from giving a eulogy for Mann E. Bothans?

No, the issue was that Mary Sue here was able to fix the Falcon quicker than Chewie and Han Solo could only have been in the ship for 5 minutes for the first time in her life.
The ship was owned (stolen) by her boss, she knows what modifications portions guy had made, she clearly has been on the ship before, and Han being a shitty mechanic is a running gag throughout ESB
>instantly solves a problem that was a major plot point through the best of the Star Wars movies in a matter of seconds on a ship that she has never been on while the man who owned the ship for years couldn’t solve it
It wasn't a major plot point in the OT. It was never in the OT and only in TFA. The compressor is the first thing Han notices and asks what moron installed it, she specifically says Unkar Plutt did and she told him it was a stupid idea. That's why she knew how to fix it later on by "bypassing" it. They covered it even if it was still really lame.
>Prequels are shit >Sequels are shit >Shows are shit
This franchise should have just stayed as a trilogy, but there are too many fanboys desperate to throw money at whatever shit they see with a Star Wars sticker slapped on it.

frick women
Frickin queers

Clearly you never watched the Twilight movies. Rey is bad but there has never been a bigger Mary Sue than Bella Swan.
what happened there
Just because she would know how to scavenge for valuable parts doesn't mean she would be able to do troubleshooting like that.

fricking when
Don't care, if your gay space fanfic is still a gay space fanfic and certainly not Star Wars

Take that, patriarchy!
You’re right they should’ve depicted her making whiny Cinemaphile threads all day

Mon Mothma wasn't introduced 'til RotJ. Get your facts right.

>Chewie and Han Solo could only have
Them not being able to fix their own damn ship was literally a running gag throughout ESB.
Right, cause Han stole the ship from Lando. But frick rey.
>first time in her life
