How much input did Abrams have in The Force Awakens? because that movie sucked. The actors and actresses seemed to have no chemistry with each other. The only reason it wasn't as bad as Ep. II and III was because Ep. VII didn't have any awkward smooching scenes that the prequels had.

What's with another loving planet destroyer? God drat, try something different. The Empire had just lost Palpatine and Vader and the deathstar for a second time. How could an offshoot group conjur up something so massively deadly without it being noticed by anyone? Also it being destroyed very similarly like in a ANH was also very unoriginal.

I'm really really glad Abrams only did the one movie instead of all three.

I was annoyed that the rebel pilot dude felt like a really superficial hero that we were supposed to be impressed by and hadn't earned it at all.

Then it looked like he died and I thought the director was trying to show how everyone is vulnerable and the new stormtrooper guy had to try to live up to a completely ridiculous ideal. I was interested.

But nope, not dead. Just an empty cool pilot hero guy.
