        Yeah, those were the more interesting bits but then those were just walked back or resolved before the movie was even over

        Then you had the insanely convoluted hyperdrive chase premise forming the backbone of the entire movie, the sidequest casino planet and the movie’s opening cutting from yo momma jokes to characters sacrificing themselves

          That whole chase made no sense, the First Order could’ve sent a bunch of fighters to attack them, since they’d be much faster than the capital ships they were chasing, or just send in ships from other nearby systems to intercept them (unless their entire fleet was chasing them, which’d be nonsensical in its own way).

          At least there was great dialog like ”We are the spark that’ll light the fire that’ll burn the First Order down” amerikkka-clap
