I can't speak to that as I have no idea what JJ was intending to do.
But if JJ didn't want Rian ****ing with his ideas, the Lucasfilm story group should have exercised a lot more control.
All I know is I watched TLJ, and found that it moved the plot forward in an intriguing and fresh way. I was eager to see what was next.
As soon as they brought JJ back in I feared for the worst. And he didn't disappoint.
I actually think there was a good story inside all of these three films trying hard to get out. Kylo Ren is interesting. The other characters work as a foil for him, even if they aren't particularly interesting. The original characters satisfied me, for the most part. They weren't going to carry a movie all by themselves anymore so I don't have an issue taking a back seat.
But a lot of hamfisted execution and the inclusion of Palpatine ruined everything. Absolutely everything.
JJ Abrams should be writing comic books or something. He's that bad. His ideas ****ing suck.
Rian Johnson actually tried to make this trilogy interesting, and then Abrams came along and and hit CTRL-V and ruined any chance of it being memorable.
Lazy ****.
