I’ve noticed two trends with folks who dislike R1 and TLJ, the big one is resistance to moving away from legacy characters (Luke/Han/Leia) and the other is the Mary Sue/I don’t like minorities crowd. I don’t see a lot of the latter here but see a lot of it elsewhere onliine.
Guess I’ll remain that outliner fan then. Loved TFA and felt let down by R1, but only slightly dismayed by TLJ. I totally fell in love with the new characters like Rey, Kylo, and Finn. I loved how Han was handled and didn’t mind Leia in TFA. However, TLJ felt like it dropped the ball with the main characters, which I find fault in how it picks up so shortly after TFA, so there’s little room for greater character growth. For some reason I’m less excited to find out what happens next to these characters, which is a complete 180 from the excitement felt after TFA ended.
