If someone tries to steal your car; and another person hears the alarm go off and fights the first person; who are you going to call a thief? By your logic, the second person, the one who tried to stop the theft, was the criminal.
What does that have to do with anything? Your claim was that what took place between Rey and Teeto was a fight. I told you how you are wrong and it was not a fight.
But anyway, it was not theft in the first place. They were all scavengers and BB-8 apparently had no owner to claim it. Teeto had every right to claim it as much as Rey did to sell it for food. But that does not matter because they did not fight for it. Rey yelled at him and he fled. Not a fight.
Your assertion as to other people's capacity to make guesses is not realistic, and in fact insulting.
As for not arguing against your point, I was saying that I find room to disagree, a courtesy that you don't extend to others.
I find it annoying that people try to make guesses with nothing to go on. because they are baseless guesses and speculation trying pathetically to justify a bad movie and poor writing. I have no problem with people taking guesses when there is evidence to support the theories. TFA offers no such evidence and I find it insulting to the intellect that people such as you go to such great lengths to justify a bad movie.
I do extend that courtesy to others when they deserve. Most TFA fans do not. Finding a common ground to disagree upon as to be earned not given. Make an argument worth a damn and I will find terms to disagree peacefully on. You have not made such an argument as of yet.
That assumes the first time we see her do anything is the first time she tried it. Can you point to anything in the text where she hadn't flown before? You're criticizing people for making assumptions, but this is a huge assumption.
Umm the movie flat out tells us that it was her first time flying the falcoln. And her first time great at everything extended to everything that we know was her first times (force powers, lightsaber, and blasters). All of this is blatantly in the film.
See why I have a hard time taking any of your points seriously? You have yet to make a good point.
When Snoke learns that she picked Kylo's mind, he says, "Bring her to me," in a menacing tone. Aren't you making an assumption that Snoke was infatuated?
this is just stupid. If he was not intrigued and infatuated he would have just told Kylo to kill her. come on use you head.
No snoke just heard about her abilities and immediately took interest without even meeting her. Again that is definition Sue writing.
You're equating an absence of evidence as evidence of absence. I find it easy to follow that scavenging one Jakku used to be more prosperous. It is very possible that she had met wookiees before.
Wrong, the previous 6 movies show evidence to the contrary. Luke, Obi-wan, Leia and all characters could not speak Droid or Wookie (only Han understood him because they were partners). there is no absence of evidence. THE EVIDENCE IS COMPELLING.
I find your argument of her meeting wookies on Jakku absolutely preposterous because we have no evidence of any wookie being present. This is a religious like argument. Actually worse than a religious argument because at least scriptures claim divine involvement, TFA does not even make claims of wookie being on Jakku. So how can you justify such a blatantly baseless claim?
So Han is supposed to be up to date on all the modifications to a spaceship he hadn't seen in decades? Unless he finds the manual (which probably never existed), his knowing of all the updates would make him a Gary Stu.
No, no you are doing this all wrong. I can make a better argument than you can supporting your position. In the previous movies Han was never all that great at repairing the Falcoln anyway. See that is a good argument.
Now in regards to yours. Rey claimed the falcoln was a piece of garbage suggesting she did not spend that much time on it. And the new 'modifications' was a plot contrivance to show off her abilities. Think about it, if it was such a piece of garbage ship why was unkaar spending time and money updating it? Again use your head.
So how did she know that BB-8 was carrying the map?
that has nothing to do with my argument. I will clarify. In terms of 'prestige' and importance and film focus. by mid-way through the film Rey becomes more important than finding the map to Luke (which is the maguffin device). So the character and her being just so interesting and important surpassed a weak writing tool that is designed to be an easy way of pushing a plot forward.
Her not knowing BB-8 had the map has no relevance what so ever to the overarching plot and the way others react to both her and the device.
So how did she get off of Starkiller Base? She did escape from the interrogation room, but if Han hadn't spotted her, she would still have been on the base when it blew up.
Umm she is the one that deactivated the shields. If Han did not find her the base never would have blown up. If she hadn't met up with them she would have not needed to get to the falcoln to escape. She is a pilot and I am sure given the abilities she displayed could have bypassed any security measures and stolen a ship to escape. but that is more theoretical. The getting off starkiller base is beside the point because she was not in immediate danger to an immediate threat. the death star 3.0 blowing up was incidental. It is an extreme stretch to say she was rescued by Chewie. But you TFA apologist are really flexible in your stretching.
