This was a good read. I've been angry about how Disney treated this movie since the day it came out. I don't mind that Disney are pushing the new characters (It's to be expected), but I do mind that they turned Luke into this sad old hermit to do so. Almost killing his whole legacy along with it. A bit more respect for the people who made this franchise what it is, and it might have been a good movie.
Your perspective on it has helped me come to terms a bit better though.
Thank you.
