There was a thread on reddit discussing that a lot of people's complaints with TLJ stem from TFA.
I'm okay with Rey's parents being nobodies. But it seems like they devoted so much time in TFA to her lineage, flashbacks, Maz Kanata. When Kylo is told that BB8 is on Jakku with a girl, he responds with "What girl?" like there's a girl they know about or have an idea about that could be a threat.
I still have a problem with the pacing and unnecessary characters, but I think this disappointment has really blinded me to any real positives in TLJ.
I am really jealous of those who enjoyed this movie. I wish I could feel like the first time I saw this teaser.
