Last Jedi was not as bad as I first thought upon re-watch.
I think a lot of you have forgotten that these movies are owned by Disney and they're made to be a vehicle for children's entertainment first and foremost.
Prequels are also a lot better than the average poster on here probably thinks.

X entire saga is centered on wars in space
X Kylo Ren appears in visions shirtless with a scar across his face

Oh yeah. Nothing but kids movies these days.

"Star Wars is for kids" is a lie that George Lucas began repeating to deflect criticism of Jar-Jar when the episode 1 backlash was beginning.
Remember Luke finding Aunt Beru and Uncle Owen's charred bodies burning?
Totally a kids movie!!

What could you have possibly found redeeming about it? Let’s review the major ways in which it failed:
-The Resistance is down to about four dudes (sorry, I mean “gender-nonspecific persons”) plus Rey.
-The First Order, meanwhile, apparently has no more than about four ships plus whatever ground-based material was left over from the battle of the salt planet at the end of TLJ. They have also been reduced to a running punchline, so they possess no sense of menace or threat whatsoever.
-Rey has already demonstrated she is more powerful than the trilogy’s still-alive main bad guy, Kylo Ren, so there’s no suspense as to whether or how she will eventually defeat him.
-The trilogy’s actual main bad guy, Snoke, is dead.
-The question of Rey’s parentage has been revealed to be meaningless.
Now, you may say, “But what about the Emperor? He will be the big bad guy in this movie!” And yeah, maybe he will be, but here’s the deal: that in no way ties in to anything presented in the first two films of the “trilogy.” The story arcs that were set up by TFA are dead, either half-arse completed or just flat out short-circuited. This new movie, despite being the culminating film of the sequel trilogy, is going to basically be a stand-alone because it will have to introduce new story arcs in order to have any story to tell at all. That’s the ultimate failure of TLJ: it didn’t just tell a bad story. It crapped all over the very idea of storytelling itself.
