The Psychology of Rey Skywalker

Показать описание

Rey from the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy is one of the most complex characters in Star Wars. The Force Awakens, The Last Jedi, and The Rise of Skywalker depict Rey as a very flawed character, yet many Star Wars fans still seem to hate her. In this video, I do a deep dive into the psychology of Rey from the Sequel Trilogy.

Can we all take a second to appreciate the amazing thumbnail!

I'm speechless. You nailed it.

May I add one thing: In The Force Awakens, Rey watches, very sadly, a ship taking off and wishes her parents returned. In The Rise of Skywalker, Rey watches, happily, her mentors spirits and fulfills the desire of two parental figures coming back for her.

She let the light guide her as Maz advised. She healed her inner child.

"At it's core the sequel trilogy is about a new generation of characters living in the shadow of the generation that came before"

Actually, if you look all the trilogies (the original, the prequels and the sequels), this theme is present in all of them. Each one is about a new generation dealing with the legacy by the old generation, as well the mistakes and sins commit by it.

In the prequels, the new generation is represented by Anakin, as he start as young well meaning slave, who dream about be a jedi and free his people. He was inspired by the jedi and their stories. However, as he grow-up he became more delusional with the jedi ways to the point he betrayed them and became Darth Vader. It was the old generation failure that result in Anakin's fall.

In the original trilogy, the new generation is represented by Luke, who goes from a average farm boy to join the rebellion and go against the empire and Vader, his father, who represents the mistakes of the old generation.

In the sequel, the new generation is represented by Rey and Kylo Ren, both inspire by Luke's legend. However while Kylo end up being inspired by his grandfather and decides to ignore the past and become a sith of his own (to the point he even kills Snoke, his master), Rey learn from the past and the old generation (represent by her interactions with Han, Leia and Luke) while trying to find her own place in the new generation.

Wow, this certainly helped me with understanding Rey as a character. I still don't really care much for her personally, I don't find her personality particularly likable or interesting, but now I feel like I have a better understanding of her!

This is easily one of the best Star Wars channels.

I feel like the reason that the force is easy for Rey to use is because, not only is she apart of dyad that sees two people as one force user, but she is some who, despite the facts, BELIEVED her parents would come back. It is that strong belief that is needed to use the force.
LUKE: "I don't believe it"
YODA: "And that is why you fail"

I come here for professional Star Wars analysis and you completely forgot about anakin’s biological father. I’m very disappointed gold man. Watto should not be underestimated

This is a new interesting type of video, can tell it took a lot work.

“Your parents threw you away like garbage”
“They didn’t.”
“They did. But you can’t stop needing them. It’s your greatest weakness. Looking for them everywhere. In Han Solo. Now in Skywalker.”

Spelled right out, yet this somehow flies right over the heads of the MaRY sUe crowd
