I wanted more, and not in a good way

Rating: 6/10 (17 December 2015)

Spoiler Alert! No names named, but an inference to an event.
At the last minute, I decided to do the marathon. I'd never seen the original trilogy in a theater. I wanted to change that.
Overall the experience was worth it.
However this latest movie. I feel like William Shatner was right when he disparaged JJ Abrams by saying "He's being a pig," for having both Star Wars and Star Trek reboots being done by him.
I feel like a lot of this movie was devoted to establishing new characters, too much even. There was a tragic death. The giant planet killing weapon bit seemed like an easy out, tried and true, but I was expecting more.
Ultimately I feel like this movie could have advanced further into the Jedi / Sith storyline much faster in the movie than it did. It felt like a very long trailer for what's to come.
The question on my mind, is was it necessary? I feel like the world was ready for the meat and potatoes of this saga and this was more an aperitif.
I'm not 100% sure I'd see it a second time. I also know I'm sleep deprived. So upon that being rectified I might actually have a different opinion.
Bottom line, I wanted more, as a fan, I felt like I deserved more. Not in the good kind of leave them wanting more way, either. It was more like.... And??
Full disclosure, yes, I dressed up.
