The biggest mistake is they brought Palpatine back and had him perform the same function as in the OT and then met the same fate.

They didn't do anything new or interesting with him. A waste of Ian McDiarmid's range as an actor. JJ Abrams avoids story-telling.

They just didn’t know what to do.

I felt like they were torn throughout the whole trilogy to either stick to tried and true, bringing in elements and characters from the past vs experimenting, creating new ideas and living OT behind.

We got a mix of both, which didn’t work.

I know people bag Ryan for The Last Jedi, but I feel he had the right idea of wanting to ‘move on’ so to speak. Problem being he was second and had a story, cast and plot similar to what we had seen.

If they wanted this to be a conclusion to the Skywalker Trilogy then, for me anyways, we had seen the Birth of the Empire (+ Vader) in the prequels, The peak of the Empire (+Vader’s redemption), the new new trilogy should have been about the remains finally falling.

However, I guess was set 30 years after the initial defeat so maybe saying Empire is still lingering would not work. I actually think if OT was about the birth of hope throughout the galaxy, then maybe the sequels should be about what happens when Luke dies, can the galaxy remain peaceful, will the lingering forces that waited be able to rise again.

@Knightrider - Honestly, Last Jedi is growing on me more and more. Way better than the trash we got in Rise of Skywalker.

@Knightrider -

The theme of the Sequels was legacy and discovering why, or if, the Jedi should continue, and if not, how does the story tranform itself into something else, but JJA ended up just repeating what came before.
