I too am sick of being told that I didn't enjoy TLJ only because of my fandom. I'm not some Captain Crunch-type Star Wars universe historian that is miffed because all my theories went in the toilet. there are plenty of legit reasons to be disappointed in this movie that don't involve the mythology at all.
for me it was because I was watching a bunch of incredibly dumb protagonists just barely outwit a bunch of even dumber antagonists. it was Buffalo Sabres vs. Arizona Coyotes on a galactic scale. who am I supposed to root for and why should I care if all our heroes have to do is not be as completely incompetent as their adversaries?
