Looks great, zero anything else pretty much

So good ol' JJ has finished this godawful saga with another sanctimonious bunch of ass and good riddance. It's been a disastrous attempt at filmmaking throughout. He had an open slate to take the story with whatever characters he wanted to dream up and he absolutely ballsed it up big time with bad characters and a rehashed story lifted from IV. Then RJ took the helm and destroyed any conceivable storyline leaving us with no characters, a total disregard to any Jedi laws and a dead end of a plot. So yes JJ had his work cut out for sure and there was no way he was going to be able to conceive a valid story to lead on with that would also wrap of not just a trilogy but the entire saga. So he fudged it basically, dazzled us with whizx bangs, chases, irrelevant characters and explosions to try and divert our attention away from the fact that it was all just grabbing at straws. He knew it, the actors and Disney knew it and the fans know it too. This is storytelling at it's very worst which is what made the SW universe so appealing in the first place. It's an insult to the medium and needs to be buried as soon as possible and I for one will be glad it's finally over.
