I watched the Force Awakens a while ago, so this is kinda behind the times, but I found an article that so perfectly encompassed my opinion of the movie that I had to share it. The article.
Long story short, given the funding behind the movie I would expect them to have the best writers and direction available. I would expect the movie to be tight, well written, and perfectly formulated. For the masses of Star Wars fans out there they should provide nothing less than perfection.
They fans were not so lucky.
The movie was 1. A total rehash of past Star Wars movies, and 2. So full of plot holes that I couldn't even enjoy the movie.
The special effects were great... but so have the special effects of almost every major film for the past decade so I. do. not. care. The article I linked to above lists the holes. There are a lot.
At this point the Star Wars franchise is one film away from losing my interest entirely. If Rogue One is anything less than great I will more or less write the franchise off and not waste my money on lazy writing and management.
