Well, I am kinda late to the party, but I finally saw this movie. Thought it was junk, honestly. The plot made little sense and didn't really take us anywhere. The point of this movie seemed to be to reenact old scenes (like Luke in the elevator with Vader) then throw in random plot twists everywhere and kill off every character and plot point from the original trilogy and even Force Awakens in order to allow a clean slate for Disney to totally re-write Star Wars. I really don't know who I am supposed to care about, why I should care about them, or where this story is even going. Just seems to be a whole lot of one-upping older characters and movies. I agree with a lot of what tusks_n_raider said. They killed the character of Luke Skywalker, then they killed him off. Leia randomly force-saving herself then flying through the air like a statue was just bad. I bet the writers feel dumb killing off everyone else while saving her, now. Also, random but how did the walking toaster escape from the trash compactor before the killer planet blew up? Now that she has fallen into an exploding star destroyer, should I expect her to magically return in the next movie? I probably won't see the next movie. They killed any investment I had in the story. My favorite part of these last two movies was Finn getting his butt kicked by the tr8-or trooper.
