Yes, I remember thinking the same. But I saw it as Disney winking at it’s audience, saying “don’t worry, we understand star wars”. I expected the continuation to flow logically and focus more on this new generation. I was excited to see what we’d discover about Maz and Rey’s journey as she learns from Luke etc.
It’s more the lack of harmony with the following movies that I disliked the most (even if I still had a tonne of fun watching them in movie theaters, D-Box seats and all!)
The first time I saw “The Force Awakens” my entire review was “this is just the original three films slammed together into one film”
Which translates to me not being that impressed.
