The Last Jedi is by far the best sequel trilogy movie. If it was between seeing more Star Wars movies by Rian Johnson or JJ Abrams, I'd go RJ in a flash.

The only thing Kathleen Kennedy was concerned about was propping up Rey. Finn was an interesting character in TFA, a former Storm Trooper. By the third film he's little more than a glorified extra.
They didn't Finn, Poe and the original trilogy cast dirty in the sequel trilogy --- "If you want to move fast, practice slowly...if you want to move like lightning, practice in stillness." ... Copied to Clipboard!

I wonder if there was some serious studio meddling in Rise of Skywalker if he is telling everyone to lay off JJ? At least Finn and Poe had character arcs in The Last Jedi.
Or is he trying to call out Chris Terrio for being a racist and sidelining his character, if it's not JJ? --- Hello world! ... Copied to Clipboard!

I thought he was fine in the first two movies, but its like they finished his arc and said "...and Finn was there, too, give him some stuff to do, first thing that comes to mind" in the third.

I mean, as much of a cluster fuck as the ST turned out to be, I'd be pretty happy to get forgotten about by the writers. Gives me a better chance of still having a career in acting when the dust clears.

Disney needs to stop acting like they actually care about diversity. Disney, like every other publicly traded corporation, cares about one thing, and only one thing: profit. They "care about diversity" only when it ultimately benefits their actual bottom line of making as much money as possible. This is why the poster looks the way is does in China -- because that will maximize profit in that region. --- Playing: Judgment; Streets of Rage 4; Rocket League You see it your way, I'll see it mine and I'll be fine ...

The new characters are just bad across the board. The overarching ideas for the sequel trilogy (rebels vs. empire AGAIN?) were flawed. Most importantly, it's become clear that they had no actual plan with the story.

I'll preface this first by saying imo, Ridley is the worst of the main actors, and Rey is the worst of the MCs.
Now Finn wasn't a bad character, and he was definitely wasted, but lets be real here. Boyega is an average actor at best. Not everything is always about race like he thinks. I can't stand Harrison Ford but lmao, you want to sideline Han Solo on a poster for some random new character? As said above that shit is purely about money. Solo is (for some reason) the most popular character in the series, its moronic to think he needs to be the small guy on the poster. IMO Boyega has kind of baited these issues a little, like that asian side character was just that; a side character. Is she supposed to fuckin turn to the dark side and become the main Sith? Or follow the light, kick Rey into the ocean, and train w Luke? IDK. There's so many problems with nu-Star Wars but the racism thing he keeps probing doesn't seem to exist here the way he thinks it does.

He got paid a fortune and given massive exposure to play a role thousands of struggling actors would literally have ripped their mother's liver out of her body (without aesthetic) and eaten it in front of their father just to get because"It wasn't good enough in the sequels they paid me to do!" and complains about it.

When you cast a token just for token's sake, it's just wasted plot potential. Either have something good planned for the character or stop trying to virtue signal hoping for that sweet woke cash. Just write the characters you actually want to write. Not that what they did with the other characters was all that good. He might have got off fairly easily. At least now maybe an EU book can pick up the slack...
