Oh good. Now Burt's here. Awesome.
Wow. First of all, we're not even talking about that movie and I never said I was OK with it. But yeah, that's explained. The force was with him and he was taught to harness it... and Luke struggles quite a bit in those movies. Not everything is easy for him. It'd make for a better movie to see Rey struggle to swim.

Misogyny ahoy.
You didn’t complain how han gets off Mimban and suddenly is an expert pilot despite us never having seen him in a ship never mind piloting one.
*amd somehow he can speak to a wookiee without us ever having seen him on duolingo
But you’re ok with luke having superpowers overnight in a new hope.
Yeah. Misogyny

The film was literally about the force awakening in a girl to bring about a balance against the counterpart. Kylo.
Did you not watch that one either?

Luke gets on and off-screen TRAINING in the force from a JEDI.

Bullshit. Luke hears about the force about 25 minutes Into a new hope.
Rey doesn’t hear about it until an hour into the movie.

Immeasurable difference.

Throw your baby in a pool when it’s born. Watch what happens.
Finally, something we can agree on!dimejinky99 wrote:Throw your baby in a pool when it’s born.
Why do you need everything spelled out for you in a movie? You are trolling now. She was dropped off on jakku at a young age. Maybe she learned to swim prior from her parents or wherever she was. Use some critical thinking.tree_ wrote:I could because I DON'T LIVE IN A DESERTdimejinky99 wrote:tree_ wrote:The force taught her to swim?

This is fine in the superhero movies. Its not out of line for what has been established in the universe. Obviously rey was born with special powers. Again, this is not new in superhero movies
