No offence to Daisy but surely Rey's story is done. Especially when you end it so badly.

Branch out! Pick a different time! You've got a whole universe to play in!

I enjoyed the first movie. In retrospect they could have expanded better within the movie instead of the outside novelettes to explain each character more in depth. I don't think she's a Mary Sue any more than Anakin is, even less so, but again I read the backstories and get why it feels that way without them. The other two movies stumbled for a lot of reasons, ruining what I think could have been a good story. Honestly from the very start, when Luke tosses the sabre away, I was like "oh no..." Not what I wanted or needed from that.
