A few favorites:
I'll be that guy that enjoyed The Last Jedi explicitly because it was something different, and leaned into more of the mystical side of the force while on the "big screen."
Edit and spoiler just in case
I just remembered the hyperspace "weapon" moment, and both how cool it was and how much it could affect the empire. They probably didn't mean for it, but that you could effectively point and shoot a ship like that was an amazing usage.I was ok with using the ship as a suicidal torpedo, but I wasn't ok with a single person being able to fully maneuver the thing all by herself, or the ensuing space rip conveniently doing that V shape and getting all 3 ships.
But the bombing run at the beginning of the movie really set the tone for "Prepare to be sorely disappointed"
What a stupid, stupid, stupid design for a 'space' bomber. Just utterly stupid. I can't say stupid enough.
They really took original Star Wars' "WWII in Space" battles to the ridiculous extreme there, for sure lol.
