Right, but that could just as easily describe an attack robot or a rathtar or something. What is her dialogue?

It’s more that she is violent and loving crazy unhinged but that doesn’t impact her personal relations at all.
She’s the type of person to beat their significant other to a pulp because they went out on town too long with their friends and forgot to do the dishes.

She's a wildly powerful, basically amoral being, deemed noble or righteous more due to fiat of the universe than having any positive character traits. I guess the closest point of comparison is a greek god really

just beating on finn and murdering people from the get go.. got a history of violence and the Power to back it up.
rey is demented


edit: just rewatched her "fight" with luke in tlj: she jumps him from behind after he interrupts their little video chat.
starts attacking an old man and when it doesn't work? pulls a lightsaber on him.
beating people and escalating situations is what she does

It's pretty smart, when you think about it. Thanks to Rogue One they only had to model maybe one or two new ships.

Using the Rogue One / Solo Star Destroyer models (with the large X on the bridge tower) also means that they're specifically the outdated ANH style Star Destroyers, which were totally replaced in the later movies. It's like if they made the next Fast & Furious movie about stealing a bunch of DVD players again.

We've also had fans asking questions like "What do the new Y-wings the Resistance are using look like?" and such.

And now we have the answer: just regular Y-wings

It's also basically the plot of Dark Force Rising where Thrawn is after a fleet of modified, recoloured Dreadnaughts.

I myself don’t know why I should care about the empire having a big fleet when massed asteroids with jump drives could decimate every single ship the empire has, at a fraction of the cost

The X-Wings and A-Wings are noticeably upgraded models. I’m interested to see if they’ve done that to the Bs, Ys, and Corvette. Plus there’s whatever that ship is on the right side of the screen.

Even though the B-wing was nominally classified as a bomber, the only Rebel ships actually shown bombing things were Y-wings in Rogue One.
