LOL replacing Canto Blight with a little Snoke backstory & making Luke physically fight Kylo instead of a force ghost dodge fest is hardly changing the whole movie.
The movie would still have issues, but it would have satisfied a lot more of the fanbase IMO. Granted there will always be a portion of the fanbase that won't be happy unless their headcannon makes it onto the screen. But IMO the biggest thing most Star Wars fans wanted out of a sequel trilogy was to see Luke fight as a true jedi master.
They basically sidelined him in VII & he never actually even turns on a lightsaber that I can remember in VIII before they kill him off. I think the only time he touches one in the entire trilogy will be when he tosses it over his shoulder. Just a failure to give the people what they wanted, they had a lot of freedom to do different things. There are a few notes that need to be hit in Star Wars films & they missed too many of them IMO. Simple small changes could have made a huge difference in VII & VIII, haven't seen IX yet so can't comment on that.
