It was like the unfunny, awkward parts of the Attack of the Clones mixed with the most boring parts of Empire Strikes Back with some leftover fluffy garbage from The Force Awakens.
Rey replaces Han & Luke, so why would I root for this Rey character if I now KNOW Star Wars' best heroes ended up as failed losers? We have very little faith in the justice of this universe now. "Luke's as honorable as Yoda and Obi-wan" Except they were supporting B characters who trained him to be better than them. The action of 3 movies amounted to false hope and quite clumsy failure. That was intentional with the Prequel Trilogy. Its the anthithesis of the original Trilogy.
Disney's execs, more than any other studio's, fundamentally do not understand storytelling, cinema and fans of both. The same greedy suits who made a fortune off poor quality, repetitive "sequels" to every classic they ever made. They just regurgitate from the past works of talents that probably never got paid their due. They are everything wrong with the business side of moviemaking.
