I pretty much got the same impression as this commentator. It's such a shame they decided to just destroy what Star Wars used to be without any regard to concepts such as cohesive storyline, good v. evil, etc. Like the rest doesn't matter and shouldn't matter.

That’s what SJW’s do. They destroy things other people love.

With the possible exception of Luke Skywalker, every man in the movie is portrayed as a reckless hot-shot who constantly makes dumb, risky mistakes and has to be bailed out by the much wiser and intelligent women around them. Come to think of it even Luke Skywalker was portrayed as inferior to the barely-an-adult Rey in both skill and wisdom.

Also, the big baddie Kylo Ren has all the intimidation value of your average ANTIFA member. He comes across as a spoiled "special snowflake" millennial with daddy issues. He spends more time talking about his feelings and throwing temper tantrums than displaying any real menace. Darth Vader is turning over in his grave (or ash pile I guess).

Young girls are the new “men” in the movies.

After the movie production companies complained bitterly that RottenTomatoes.com hosted reviews that made ticket sales nearly impossible, they said “something had to be done.”
So I look at the 92% (i.e.,”Fresh”) critics reviews for this last Star Wars and compare it with the low fan scores of 52% (i.e., “Rotten”) and believe that the movie studio somehow figured out how to get better percentage reviews from critics but when the fans go and see what they’ve done to the franchise, the score tanks as “rotten”.

Someone wrote this hilarious comment under the video:

“Star Wars Episode 9 PLOT LEAK REVEAL!
Princess Leia dies offscreen due to a wicked First Order plot led by General Hux, who then retires & becomes a clown in a travelling circus.

Ray, Rose & Finn develop a love triangle. Rose becomes pregnant, & everyone is happy until Rose & Rey decide they dont need a man in their life. The baby is born, and grows up with 2 Mummies. Rose tells Finn he must return to the planet Canto Bight & turn them from their terrible ways.

Finn spends an hour of screen time preaching the way of love & pacifism to the residents of Canto Bight & fails to convert a single person as they are all so terrible. The mission is hailed as a great success.

Ray finally pursuades Kylo Ren to turn to the Lightside. He orders the disarming of the First Order, and they become the Galaxys Peace Corps. rebuilding everything they have destroyed.

Poe comes out of the closet after Finn marries Rose, and unable to live in a future so empty of everything he loves (War & Finn), kills himself. Nobody notices except BB8, who goes “Boo-hoo-doop”.

C3PO & R2D2 become servants of the Canto Bight Institution for Cute orphans & entertain the kids in 30 seconds of screen time.

Chewbacca (now a Vegetarian) becomes a farmer on Kashyyk.

Scientists discover a way to make every new baby become female.

Ray, having ended war in the Galaxy is elected President of the Union of Galactic Planets & presides over a time of peace & happiness for ever, as the Force makes her Immortal & gives her the power to change the mind of anyone who disagrees with her, as they are obviously wrong.”

Disney could buy the rights to Beethoven, and pay him 4 billion dollars, but their music would still be Disney multicultural nonsense. Disney can make Disney movies, and apparently not Star Wars movies. They sure know how to, “portray China in a positive light,” which is one of the stipulations they need to abide by to get their movies played in China.
