The last Jedi is a bad movie with great concepts behind it that was done extra dirty by Rise of Skywalker being such an unmitigated disaster that threw away the few cool concepts Last Jedi gave it
And Rise of Skywalker shows so solidly that there was no plan for the overall plot of those movies, Disney just gave it to two guys who hate each other and said “good luck” before fucking with it even more
A few. First, the “who’s profiting off this war?” MIC plot line. Rey’s parents being nobodies. The idea that “the Jedi kinda sucked, actually.” That kid at the end using the force on his broom.
All good ideas with a real mediocre execution. But all of it was either ignored completely in Rise of Skywalker, or actively undone. Even concepts as simple as Kylo Ren not wearing his helmet anymore because he’s changed are undone immediately.
Literally the only one of those that’s well-trodden ground is “the Jedi kinda suck.” The top force-using characters have always had a bloodline. The concept of a military industrial complex profiting off both sides had never shown up before.

So the "great concepts" are just ground already trodden by Star Wars before, lmao okay
