Abrams big screw up was trying to force things back on track by jamming 2 movies worth of plot into 1 rather than just starting over to deal with everything Johnson broke.Well yeah, he made mistakes as well, apparent in TFA. He denied the fans a chance to see Luke, Leia, and Han all reunite in the Sequels and handled the Luke situation (mia) in such a way it allowed the character assassination in TLJ to happen. Granted, I thought that Abrams did start over. After TLJ left no Snoke on the table and continued making Kylo Ren (aka the guy who lost a lightsaber duel to a 100% untrained Rey and was 100% getting redeemed) more of a joke by needing Rey's help to avoid getting killed by Snoke's guards, there wasn't anyone left to fill the top villain spot. Thus, Abrams's choice to bring back the most recognizable Star Wars villain (for which there is precedence in Legends in Dark Empire) makes a lot of sense. And although neither is good (both are quite bad indeed), I enjoyed TROS more than TLJ, with TLJ all about subverting expectations at the cost of...well...everything else. --- I'm...the...master...of...ellipses... ...
