It's hilarious how in TLJ they attempt to pass Rey off as "nobody special" after 2 movies of her character basically being a Super Saiyan Mary Sue and presumed to be the next in a long line of Jedi masters or related to one a la Kenobi or Skywalker.  Apparently it's now the case that literally any one can be a Jedi or wield the Force, yet somehow in a universe of billions they're down to the LAST Jedi already.

Kinda ruins the whole significance of Luke / Vader in the original trilogy and thus the entire point of the Star Wars universe's general storyline, doesn't it?

It's amazing how just a couple short years ago everyone (including myself) was hyped to the max for a new Star Wars trilogy that could give new life to the franchise and erase the bad taste left by the Prequels, yet here we are with 3 films in 3 years, and I couldn't care less about any of the upcoming SW films.  The Han / Obi Wan standalone films are almost guaranteed to suck, and I now have zero interest in the conclusion of the new trilogy with Episode IX.  Even with the terrible prequels I was still pretty excited for their conclusion when Episode III came out, which tells you just how bad Disney and Co have run this franchise into the ground already.

Is that a thing? Being related to powerful force users can make you powerful as well?

Seems awfully cheap: it's not about the work you put in but rather the circumstances of your birth.
