Most: Star Wars !

Least: Lack of “big picture” for the ST by Disney**
R.J.'s infantile humor. -Poe’s convo with Hux, Luke tossing his saber, BB-8’s ‘Jar Jar’ moment getting filled with coins. He might think he’s funny, but it’s 10yo funny, and doesn’t fit with the SW universe.
Rey’s portrayal - in TFA she seems like a wise soul - in TLJ like a giddy school girl “the force is like moving like rocks around, right?”

** I popped in the BD of Last Jedi last night and for some reason the “Directors Commentary” played. The scene where Rey climbs up to Luke and Luke tosses the saber, RJ says he had no idea why Luke was there on that island. Didn’t he watch TFA? They spent a great deal of time (like the entire movie) looking for the map to Luke as he was on his quest to find the Jedi Temple. It’s as if 40 years of checking and rechecking to make sure things fit in the canon has just been thrown out the window.
