The Problem : The unfortunate death of Fisher means that she is not present in Episode 9. She could have had a heart rending send off in this movie. There was time, in the real world, to fix this.
The Solution : She dies in space. She is retrieved and lies in state until Force Luke comes to stand over her and say his goodbyes, before facing her son. All sorts of emotional fulfillment.
Was that hard, Rian Johnson?

And really this is the problem it's the movie. It has all the pieces to make it amazing it was just put together poorly and misused its extended runtime
