The deaths of both Luke and Leia were really dumb. It’s like they were going out of their way to make Leia’s death unpredictable after Fisher died. Episode 8 took 3 good deaths away: the two mentioned above and Finn’s.
Not to mention how the fuck does Rose even catch up to Finn at all when she had turned back and he kept going at full speed intending to kamikaze that cannon but then somehow she’s able to hit him from the side and they both survive the serious collision in barely functional vehicles (after surviving an even bigger collision when one capital ship lightspeeded into another one and it tore open the room they were in–in fucking space!)
And Luke dies from using the force too hard, which is also what kills Leia from sending a message to her son, who in the meantime has been having full conversations with Rey where they see each other and exchange objects between their respective realities.
Episode 8 was just so bad. There’s very little that redeems the movie. Even one of the cooler moments, Ben killing Snoke, was poorly done because a sith Lord should have been able to sense that attack the moment he started turning the lightsaber towards him. It should have been a sudden “lightsaber ignites and then rotates” and even then, Snoke should have had a brief reaction that failed to save him rather than being completely surprised.
They definitely lost me when Luke got hit by a star destroyer cannon and wiped off his shoulder and everyone in the theatre laughed.
I knew at that moment everything I had been feeling my whole life was justified.
Fucking sheeple

And there’s still a lot I haven’t even mentioned.
