Composed and conducted by John Williams, the theme was created with empathy towards Rey, who is introduced in the film as being alone and without her family. Williams aimed to reflect this empathy through the music, composing it with an adventurous tone rather than a typical hero's theme, hinting at the exciting journey and eventual resolution to come.

Can someone explain why so many people hate Rey? I really don’t get it. I will admit I wish that she would have gotten more development in some spots, but overall I think she had good development. Some mistakes were made in the Sequels, but I think that Lucasfilm did a decent job with them.
According to Google, the definition of a Mary Sue is: “a type of female character who is depicted as unrealistically lacking in flaws or weaknesses”
So if Rey is a Mary Sue as so many claim, than can someone please explain these things:
1. Rey experiencing and struggling with loneliness and abandonment. (A very realistic and tragic issue for many)
2. Rey constantly feeling as though she is nothing, and trying to suppress that feeling. (At least, until the end)
3. Rey being either too down-to-earth and trusting, or too naive.
Additionally, I have several pieces of evidence that debunk many of your various complaints:
1. “Rey beat Kylo without even handling a Lightsaber”: The only reason Rey won was because Kylo was unbalanced due to him killing his father (as Snoke pointed out) Had that not happened, she would have most likely died. (And yes, this is the official reason, look it up.)
2 “Rey did everything perfectly”: No. Rey may have been skilled in some areas, but she was far from being perfect. (At least in the beginning) When Rey attempted to fly the Millennium Falcon, she had a very hard time handling it. (Not to mention the fact she caused massage property damage and barely made it out without a scratch. Tell me a Mary Sue would do that.)
3. “Rey never learned or grew as a character.” False. Rey attempted to turn Ben back to the Light Side, but Ben was unwilling to turn. From that lesson, Rey learned that you can’t trust everyone and sometimes people are unwilling to change.
But the most important thing she learned of all was that she was not useless and had meaning and a purpose in life, and finally accepted who she truly was.”
4. “Rey was able to use powerful Force Abilities without training.” Okay, but answer me this, why can Grogu use a Force Choke on others when he’s only a child? If he can do that without training, then why can’t Rey do those things too. I mean, I think it’s possible for individuals to inherit certain abilities from others. But they do still have to master them. (Plus, when Rey mind-tricked that Stormtrooper, she didn’t get it the first time)
Anakin was able to do some incredible things with barely any training too, such as guessing all the images the Jedi tested him with without seeing them, or blowing up an entire Trade Federation Battleship.
And what about Luke? He blew up the freaking Death Star just by reaching out to Obi-Wan’s spirit. Does this make Anakin and Luke Mary Sues/Gary Stus too?
Lastly, I would like to point out that several years ago, you people were totally against the Prequels, and now look at you! You’re all saying it’s the best thing to ever happen!
So what’s it gonna take before you start saying the same things about the Sequels too? Why can’t you just be thankful for what you’re given, instead of criticizing every single thing? Just let Star Wars be Star Wars and let people enjoy it.

Ngl, it feels like I'm playing an Fantasy RPG, and I just got put in an establishing cutscene you're perspective is being switched between first person, walking, and third person in a drone shot, as the side character guides you throughout the magical village/kingdom that you have to protect in the game.
0:00 You're walking across the bridge and able to see the first few houses
0:13 A high angle shot follows your character, as you're exposed to the residents and their vast different animals
0:23 You return in first person, following the guide and moving around the side of a cliff face
0:31 A moving drone shot shows more of the citizens
0:46 Big animal goes across gets put in view, and then falls down to capture the amazement of your character looking back at the animal
1:00 The camera switches to a shot of you walking up stairs to a large gate, the guide still talking
1:09 The guide says something that intrigues your character to stop before the guide opens the gate
1:14 A time lapse of the village/kingdom building over time in a rotating panoramic shot
1:22 You walk through the gates, still talking with the guide as you two move on a path below a thick canopy, the camera moving along behind you
1:28 You come into view of a waterfall that collects into a river below the canyon ridge. Birds fly through the mist and rainbow glare on the camera
1:32 First person again, you're walking along the ridge of a canyon that surrounds the river the waterfall flows into, still talking with the god damn guide about the village/kingdom's lore
1:40 The top of the Mayor/head-chief/king's house/mansion/whatever is revealed behind cliff/hill in the canyon, and the camera shows the amazed expression on your characters face, the guide chuckles to the sight of it.
1:51 You begin walking faster towards the palace thingy, a birds eye view-on an angle, follows you, raising higher and focusing more on the royal house.
2:12 The camera is following you two as you and the guide as you descend the cliff/hill, seeing more of the guards, gardens, and animal paddocks that are visible to you.
2:22 First person another bloody time, and both you, and the guide are amazed by the sight of the house's entrance, looking left and right to the guards overlooking you, and the carriages being pulled in and out by horses/whatever the hell horse like magic animal is in there
2:32 Third person, and the camera is behind you again, as both of you slowly ascend the steps towards the front doors of the palace
2:39 You open and see the king managing scribes and marketers (idk, he's just talking to people with scrolls and books), and the queen and royal butler is try to gain control of the children running in circles with wooden swords and dolls (ok, it's medieval from that). First person of course.
2:44 The King and Queen notice the guide, as they are close friends, and then you. They greet each other, and the guide looks at you, motioning you to begin your speech
2:49 The camera faces you from a side angle, your character begins the message of how some danger and/or boogeyman figure is going to attack/destroy the kingdom/village
2:56 The camera switches to the King and Queen, their previous expressions now gone as you continue
3:07 (Not because the video turns black, but bc the music finally fades) Queue flashback + another song, of the antagonist and his minions/army destroying the place you were from, idk.
The vision in me head ends there.. I should probably take this whole English Major thing seriously now :/
@TheColombianSpartan
Ok, say what you want about Rey, but her theme is absolutely epic
@AugustoXRock
It's very fitting to be honest, since the movie seven has "A New Hope" written all over it's face. It has that hopeful air to it.
@ava165
It’s my fav star wars piece I love it sm
@tannerjay
That's because it was made by John Williams not the Disney writers
@siraphobatamakoolsri3596
Good stuff
@dopdrop8998
@@tannerjay They were the Lucas film writers not the Disney writers. I guess you’d also call the Mandalorian writers the Disney writers.
@Merchaant
John Williams may be the greatest composer of our time.
@Merchaant
Without a doubt.
