That doesn't make them bad movies, just a different feel.
I wonder if Abrams will go back on anything that Rian did. Maybe Rey's parents were nothing, but one of them was born on Tatooine, child of the farm girl who provided comfort to that hermit living out beyond the dune sea. I hope he leaves Rey as being unconnected to the previous stories but I think he had different ideas.

I left this movie almost feeling like 9 will have a few dozen resistance fighters battling a few dozen first order soldiers, and at some point in the movie the rest of the galaxy will be like are we still doing this ####, can you guys just go somewhere else and kill each other.
Seemingly all that is left of the first order is 5 AT-ATs and a command shuttle, while the entire resistance fits on the Flacon.
I think it would be an OK choice to allow the galaxy to outgrow the fight in the 9th movie, it will really bring a conclusion to this trilogy and leave the story wide open for future movie. They could really go forward or backward from there, they could build up multiple characters on smaller scale conflicts and bring them together later the way they did with Marvel.
