I have never seen anything about TESB that made it not fit with Star Wars…

I didn’t say it didn’t fit. In fact, I specifically said I see where it was in line with the original. The story, in whatever way it’s written to clarify the in-story passage of time, doesn’t interest me, nor do the characters at that point in their lives. Well made for sure and far more often than not it’s shown to be the high water mark of the franchise.

I can see if you find the story less enthralling than ANH…but your stated reasons for not liking TESB are pretty weak.

With regard to my opinion, those two statements are one and the same. I find the story & characters less enthralling than Star Wars, so I don’t care for the movie. People’s opinions are not strong, weak, right, or wrong.

The Last Jedi may end up being more of the same. We may be catching up with our new heroes a few years after we last saw them. If that’s the case and Rey is a departure from what I found so interesting about her in TFA, I might feel the same about it as I did about TESB.
