My first reaction watching it back then was it was good but had some issues, some plot choices I didn't care for, namely the casino planet.

So far, I'm finding that I really, really don't care at all about anything happening with the fleet or them escaping from Snoke. Finn, Poe, Leia, they all are wasted as characters in the chase, basically reduced to a comedy of errors.

I'm wishing the movie strictly focused on Ren, Rey, and Luke. That's been the most interesting stuff so far. It needed way more emphasis on the force.

I just realized earlier that tomorrow it'll be a full year since I first watched this trash bag of a movie and lost most, if not all interest in Star Wars.

I agree with this. Everything involving those 3 was great, but Finn's plotline, and Poe especially, was meh to straight up awful.

The whole Casino sidequest felt like filler material.

Time is a funny thing. There is always too much of it, except when you need it the most. Then there is never enough.

You could cut that from the movie and it would make no difference. It was completely pointless, just like Rose Tico.

Wow, damn. It's been a full year.

It still feels like a shitty Star Trek/Stargate episode mixed with a Doctor Who side quest.

At least the "they're gonna follow us wherever we go in hyperspace" episodes were fun with those shows. The second they hinted at that in this, I lost all hope because those are meant for one off TV episodes. Not entire fucking movies.

Which is silly because they didn't even need it, the movie was fucking long enough without it
