It's interesting though... TFA was panned because it was too much like what we'd seen already. Just a remix of what has come before. So Rian steps in and flips the thing over... new story line, new force powers, stuff absolutely no one saw coming... and the movie is panned again. I honestly think the universe is so loved that living up to expectations is nearly impossible. Every single one of you could have written your perfect version of this movie and it would have been shredded.

TFA and this movie weren't "panned." They've both been well reviewed.

Haters gonna hate.

We're miles away from the prequels. Those movies didn't register on the emotional spectrum.

I'm laughing and crying like I haven't since I was a kid.

Well reviewed critically... and I guess TFA was received well by the majority of the fans as well, but many of the conversations I've had with fellow star wars fans hated the fact that the story arch so closely resembled ANH.

Really none of the Rey Kylo Luke stuff bothered me though I didn’t love it. The resistance story line was a steaming pile of shit, and there was too much of it. It got better as it went but so much bad to overcome.

93% critics and 56% fans on rotten tomatoes. I’ve seen it flipped the other way, but that’s a big ass gap. Looks fishy to me.

Kylo Ren is much better at being Anakin Skywalker than Anakin Skywalker.

I was just left disappointed..... But I can also see alot of what Clay is saying. I will definitely go see it again. Maybe it takes a couple viewings. And maybe some are right i'm just nitpicking and it wasn't exactly what i expected.

I was instantly unhappy when Kylo broke his helmet.... I was so waiting for him to come off that ship to face luke with either his helmet or vaders helmet on.

Vader's helmet on!? WTF? :) See this is a perfect example of what I'm talking about. Everyone has their own ideas, dreams, thoughts, visions of what they think should happen that it can't possibly come close to meeting anyone's expectations.

Not hating on you bro... but Ren coming out with Vader's helmet on would have been weird as **** IMO!

Kylo Ren as the new Supreme Leader?

Yes, he was already regarded as Supreme Leader in TLJ.

Hux addressed him as such.

Also. With no crystal how can they construct light sabers since they destroyed Anakins?

Rey got the half of the lightsaber with the Kyber crystal

I love kylo's helmet, and he's always worn it to be vader like. So when he crushed it and the way his ark, the i take it is going, he wants to rule, he wants the ultimate power. He wants to be vader and finish what he started. So it wouldn't have suprised me if he came out in vaders helmet to face luke and again finish what vader started or couldn't. Although i'd rather him just keep his own helmet as i think it's badass. I think the ultimate goal is in episode 9 kylo's transformation to the dark side and turning more into vader will be complete. Even thru this whole movie he was way more aggressive and nasty, Force choking and pulling people like vader. Snapping and putting his foot down that he was in charge. Very Vader.

Not saying what i thought would be badass should be done just my own "would have been epic" moment in my head.. lol
