Re: I don't think Star Wars: TFA was a well-written movie.

I'm sick of people making comparisons between Luke and Rey when their storylines are starting from two very different cultural settings: one where Star Wars is a new property and "the Force" is all but a mystery to viewers, and one which things like Jedi mind tricks have been known for decades. Luke's progression was more gradual because the expansion his universe was also more gradual-- you'd better believe if the storyline of A New Hope had called for an opportunity for Luke to escape a situation via Jedi mind tricks because it was the best way of moving the story forward and expanding on what the Force could do, he absolutely would have. the only difference was that he wasn't placed in that position, and his "training" arc of sorts was of importance to the next films.
when SW originally came out, no plans for a sequel, they weren't going to toss in him learning Jedi mind tricks or any number of other abilities that expands the universe beyond what could be contained in a two hour film because at the time, that was all they believed they had. it is unfair to compare them in a vacuum, without looking at what Star Wars is culturally, and what best suits the storyline of the film-- not necessarily in keeping with some nebulous notion of "consistency" about magical space powers.
