What poor source material? The Force Awakens has a 93% approval on rotten tomatoes, and by all accounts is pretty widely loved.
He was given artistic freedom over a franchise that was lined up great for him and came out with (what I and over 50% of people) consider to be a bad movie. I don't know why you need to try and shoehorn comparisons.
If it's a case of overzealous fans hating on their long established fandom, why was The Force Awakens so universally well-received? It's because it was a good story.
