Yeah, I mean, I get it. I was excited too and thought it was a decent movie anyway. I don't hate it or anything. I'm just ready for more new stuff.When the first trailers dropped for TFA almost everyone was excited about seeing familiar location and vehicles from the SW universe again.
At that point in time JJ made the right decision.
Going backwards in order to go forwards was literally the mission statement for TFA. JJ said this repeatedly during interviews.
I think he did a great job imo.
