Think you can find the post and quote it? I don’t remember saying this.
Okay so I did go digging here is my post
@Dex Stewart
Well for one thing they shouldn’t have had Rey win the fight at the end end.
Like she’s standing over him she beat him and it took a planet splitting them apart to save him.
Like when you Rey beats the bad guy in the first movie you don’t really have a whole lot left to do with her.

Like Han shooting Vader down and Luke blowing up the super weapon?
Which is what happens so I was mistaken I believe I conflated this with a different post not by you and missed remembered and I’m sorry for that.
And for the record I responded with
@Meanlucario
No.
Luke blowing the Death Star is showing his potential and what the Force is capable of he does not beat Vader face-to-face in a Lightsaber fight he gets his ass kick when they do fight and much as you pointed out he still needed Han’s help there too.
If Luke beat Vader in a Lightsaber and the only reason Vader gets away is the Death Star falling apart than it’s the same thing as TFA.
They had it backwards is what I’m saying Rey fights Ben and gets a few good hits but loses and Illum breaks apart separating them that’s how it’s should have ended.
Because 1) having your bad guy need to saved from the heroine by a planet breaking apart does not make them a very credible threat and 2) having your heroine beat the primary antagonist at the start of the trilogy doesn’t leave them with an area they need to improve on.
Which I still stand by.
I will now quote Pitch Meeting for Rebel Moon that does much of the same thing “oh I wonder if they can beat the guy they already beat once.
