Oh boy, oh boy. Talk about some hot garbage. Designated love interests, power creep, a convoluted mess of a plot that seems lifted straight out of fanfiction like Game of Thrones Season 8 (admitedly, perhaps, because of the rushed pacing on both), the list goes far and wide. At least we're free forever from Rey & co. and the old cast... and Disney probably won't mess with mainline "flagship" trilogies in a while given this seems to be grossing even less than TLJ.
The only positives are 1) no more wet fart-tier Disney humor like TLJ, instead we get witty lines more befitting of Star Wars; and 2) Rey, though she's now basically Darth Plagueis tier, is fucking training for once.
On a related note, here's a new Harry Potter idea for JK Rowling, since Fantastic Beasts is faltering in the box office as well: Voldemort is, like, back. And now he has a million Death Eaters following him. And each of them has Horcruxes so they're basically, like, way more powerful than before.
