I still don't understand how Kylo Ren was able to be essentially defeated by Rey in TFA given she had zero Jedi training or any training handling a light saber.

And if Snoke is really dead, he might be the biggest let down of any major movie villain in history. Kylo Ren twitches his fingers, but Snoke doesn't notice this? And just like that he's dead? That shit's reeruned.

Leia's Marry Poppins routine was ****in stupid as hell too. She can float herself throughout space using the force, but she can't move a pile of rocks when looking for a way out of that bunker?

The way Luke Skywalker was handled at the end was a travesty as well. Luke exerted so much force that he formed to an out of body self and ended up killing his own self in the process. And whelp...that's the end of Luke Skywalker I guess.

Still don't think Kylo Ren is a good villain. His character is no different than the one Hayden Christensen played...a pathetic whiny little beta. A girl half his size kicks his ass. "Oh but he's just conflicted w/ the good and bad ways of the force and needs to find himself first!" <---- DUMB.

Nobody wants to watch "This is Us" on the big screen and that's exactly what you get w/ Kylo Ren's character. The mother****er gets teary eyed in every other scene he's in. I came to watch a powerful Jedi/Sith in training **** some shit up, instead I got a teary eyed loser who gets his ass kicked by a girl half his size. And we're supposed to take this guy seriously as a big bad Star Wars villain? They couldn't have possibly done his character more wrong and evidently didn't learn from Hayden Christensen's Anakin character.
Heh. I like the “This is Us” reference.

Saw the movie today. I concur with most everything you say here.

The franchise cannot adequately replace the greatest villain of all time.

The whole Snoke thing is just pathetic, and the lack of character formation for what are to be the new generation of heroes is lacking at best.
