But I'm not going to get into a fruitless fight. We have different worldviews and understandings. And no amount of screaming into the void is likely to move the needle.
Thanks for the replies.

Just my .02 - I've said it many times before in this thread and the TLJ thread....I thought TLJ was a good enough movie
in and of itself (the cinematography was really amazing), but paired with the other seven it's a catastrophe. There is just absolutely no feel of continuity from the jump; it would be like if you were watching a string of Marvel movies set on Earth 616, then all of a sudden you're in the middle of a storyline from Earth 1610 in the 8th movie in the line of three trilogies.
And I think Kelly Marie Tran was absolutely and completely miscast in TLJ, but I don't think for a minute she deserves any of the harassment she's received on the web. She did the best with what she was given, and she was given a character and an arc that should never have been thought up in the first place. That's not her fault, though. People are just assholes.
