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.
