Death Star shoot man, we need a super weapon big enough to fire death stars out of its gun.
From a writing perspective, there was nothing super new in the storyline, but the movie itself was well produced and solid. They even made Han the titular Ben Kenobi character.
The next two movies should have been called Star Wars Its a train wreck, and Star Wars we pissed off the fans so much that we had to pull Palpatine out of our ass as the ultimate fan service.

IMO the TFA set up some good storylines with Phasma, Rey, Finn, Snoke, Poe etc... TLJ just decided to throw all of that away. Finn was kind of the lynchpin in there. He was dealing with his PTSD from his life as a trooper, and his story could have tied other plot lines together pretty well. Instead, they turned him into a clown and everything focused on his love story with Rose.
