The warp speed kamikaze. That changes fucking everything. Literally every conflict up until now should have had ships programmed with droids to pull this move to destroy death stars, destroyers, bases, etc. And now every problem in the next movie will have that hanging over our heads. "Just pull the hyperspeed trick again, that will solve everything"

there is precedence for ramming a ship into another ship on a suicide mission. it's been done before, though not at light speed - I'mbpretty sure it was only at light speed because it otherwise wouldn't have reached the ship in time. ships are expensive; you generally don't want to do that unless it's a last resort (which it was).

Luke's entire character. Underutilized and frankly just kinda wrong. I felt like they had to shoehorn in all these character flaws in order to create some conflict, which didn't sit right with me.

Luke has always had flaws. I loved his character arc, and thought that was a great way to end it - projecting his likeness across the galaxy is an unprecedented light-side power

Rey's complete mastery of the force in like, 3 minutes. She's just too good and it really cheapens everyone else's abilities. There's not even a basis to say she comes from good stock or anything. There's no explanation or hinting here. Her entire character makes every Jedi with the exception of yoda look like a punk and it sets up the expectation that she'll always be able to force her way out of trouble, because that's all she does.

she... breaks a lightsaber and picks up some rocks. that's not "complete mastery"
