Very true. Though since they seem to always hit all around their target I'd say they are accurate but terribly not precise. Just FYI, Precision and Accuracy are two different things. Stormtroopers may be precise, they just are not accurate.
Points to you both

So I was thinking while mowing last night: In ANH, Han loses his $#!% and goes tearing off after a squad of troopers. This makes no sense. He's just screaming and running, not even shooting. What makes even less sense is that these are supposed to be the fearsome 501 st. You're telling me that 8 of the best clones in the Empire can't take down a nut job and his Wookiee? It's mainly meant to be funny (and it is) and show how Han's just friggin winging it most of the time. This little kamikaze maneuver of his does backfire when he rounds the corner IIRC. I think the troopers are just having a total WTF reaction. lol.

What any episode of TCW or Rebels (or Skywalker saga) with Jedi Temple Guards and you will see some as well. Though you don't always realize that they are like that.

Am aware of Krell and the Temple guards, but theres a few elements that caught my attention with Reys. First and foremost the unstable blade caught my eye. Perhaps its a familiar cracked crystal in that saber?

I was actually surprised at how long it took me to start hearing people talk about the unstable blades. That was one of the very first things I noticed. Also, I was thinking, We know that a double bladed saber needs at least 2 crystals. So if it is actually really Rey and not something else, could she have taken the crystals from Anakin's saber (since we know that the crystal broke in two) and used both of them to create her new lightsaber?

Then how does she still have the Skywalker Saber..... I'm still saying Vision...she sees them as unstable because that's the only Red saber's she's ever seen

Yeah, I still think it's a vision as well, but if it isn't, that is a possibility of how she could have a double bladed saber. Also, there is no confirmation of the timeline yet. She may fight Kylo with her blue saber and then go Dark Rey. Not that I think any of that is going to happen, but we don't know yet.

Yep. Sorry PS, it's already been done......twice. What any episode of TCW or Rebels (or Skywalker saga) with Jedi Temple Guards and you will see some as well. Though you don't always realize that they are like that.
I'm failing to see a hinge. I was actually surprised at how long it took me to start hearing people talk about the unstable blades. That was one of the very first things I noticed. Also, I was thinking, We know that a double bladed saber needs at least 2 crystals. So if it is actually really Rey and not something else, could she have taken the crystals from Anakin's saber (since we know that the crystal broke in two) and used both of them to create her new lightsaber?
That's not how it works. Then how does she still have the Skywalker Saber..... I'm still saying Vision...she sees them as unstable because that's the only Red saber's she's ever seen
Because KK and her army of flying ass-monkeys think we can't recognize a that a saber is just another cheap copy of the original. -_- And of course Rey utilized all of Luke's teachings to be able to construct a saber of her own.

I'm failing to see a hinge. Yes, well technically in TCW, Filoni had not yet decided to do that. But they probably do have a hinge "officially". Though maybe not. It may be that only some of the "higher level" Temple Guards had hinged sabers.

It seems like when they snap to full the seam is almost invisible from a distance. Honestly I like seeing this saber but unfortunately people are quick to call it stupid because of how Rey ignited it. As far as I'm aware Pong Krell (Kriff he was a wasted bad ass character) and the Guards never ignited it before snapping it. The fold was just because as a "pike" it had a longer hilt than a usual double blade. Recently a Rumor surfaced from a source that was right a few times before. If you don't want to see what could be a possible spoiler stop reading now The apparent leak is that Rey will be revealed as Palpatine's Granddaughter. Now, I am of 2 minds of this. On the one hand...I like it. Its an intersting "twist" that the Grandson of the Chosen One is now a instrument of the Dark Side and the Granddaughter of one of (if not the) greatest Sith Lords who ever lived is part of the Light. Could be an awesome story.........BUT.....introducing ALL that info into the last film could bloat it. You have to Explain...Who did Palpatine sleep with? Who was the child of that Union? Who did they Sleep with to sire Rey? Who left Rey on Jakku and Why? These should have begun to be addressed in EP 8. But, it very well may be untrue and only rumor.

Wouldn't that make Rey and Kylo sort of related? After all, Anakin was "created" by Palpatine, right. So, if Rey is Palpatine's granddaughter would that make her Kylo's aunt and Luke & Leia's half or step sister, in a round about sort of way? I mean, this is the same franchise where Luke had a thing for his sister, they kissed a couple of times, then apparently forgot about it later and no one cared. I'd like it better if Rey was a clone of Palpatine (with dark side tendencies and all). After all, Luke did say that she went to the dark side quickly and that he had only seen that kind of power once before. While it was assumed he was talking about Kylo, a case could be made for the Emperor (though that would take a bit of retcon, and we all know THAT'S not going to happen [said with slight sarcasm]). Anyway, I'm excited about the possibilities.
