The Last Jedi was way better
The Last Jedi was way better than this crap.
As controversial as it was, The Last Jedi tried something different. It consolidated Kylo Ren as a great villain and Rey was clear on who she was and what she must do. Plus, Finn finally learned to sacrifice himself for others. And Poe learned patience and obedience.
But this film try to shoehorn things to please fans. The whole “Rey is really special and a grandaughter of Palpatine” was ridiculous. It was better to leave her as a daughter of nobodies.
No explanation as to how the Emperor is back.
And, of course, the film played it too safe. At least with The Last Jedi you had the death of Luke. It was a very dramatic and useful death. But in this one, everyone survives, except for Leia. This death also was just “meh.”
And Rey taking the Skywalker name? C’mon!
TROS was a lazy effort with too much fan service.
The Last Jedi is the best of the new trilogy.
