The biggest problem with the first two prequel movies was they tried to be too big. They focused on all the the galaxies politics, extended love story scenes and so much exposition. Instead you if you leave the viewer to fill in the gaps you end up which much better movies.

So the extra material just supplements and expands on things but is non essential to the enjoyment of the movie.
Yeah, I get what you are saying, the movie would have been pretty bad if they explained everything and it is good to leave things up to the viewers imagination. My issue though is that this isn't leaving things up to your imagination, it is told in a book or comic I'm never going to read. Either put it in the movie or leave it up to the viewer, don't make us read extra material to figure out what is going on.

Oh, and I don't care about the red arm, it was more about the light sabre and Snoke background.

Also, Dances with Smurfs was horrible.
