It sort of destroys the Jedi mystique when any force sensitive guttersnipe can beat a supposedly trained knight of ren. Or maybe Luke Skywalker was just such a aweful teacher that Kylo ren was hopeless.
It would have been better if Ren had to really work, step by step, to eventually become a Light side badass, say, by episold 9.
1) I loved that. Much more Luke-esque of her to learn it on the fly (I know Luke was trained for a second by Yoda, but that's a far cry from going through an entire academy), and to not have the stuffy Jedi etiquette always reminding her of how she's doing it wrong, a la Ep. I and II.
2) Kylo Ren was Bow Caster'd by Chewy. If you're not buying that she beat a trained Sith, you must really not like that he couldn't even kill Fin in a duel. Haha If we're knit picking, he should have been killed by Chewy's blaster.
3) Kylo was clearly nowhere near the level of a master.
Yeah, the Luke that was trained for a second by yoga was destroyed with ease by darth Vader. Btw, didn't the heirloom light saber fall down into the abyss along with Luke's arm while he was being annihilated by his father?
How the hell did it end up in a box for Rey to find?
