    After TFA, I was really expecting Snoke to be a Yoda sized character. Then I watched The Last Jedi and realized I should have no more expectations for the movies, which was supported by watching The Rise of Skywalker.

      Yoda burning down that library was one of the best things to happen in all of Star Wars canon… Too bad it had the rest of The Last Jedi around it.

        He didn’t burn down the library, he burned down the tree so that Luke wouldn’t find out that Rey had taken the library.

        And it opened the whole plot hole of “if force ghosts can do that, why aren’t they hitting Vader and Palpatine with lighting until the problem is solved?” Hell, even before it was shown that they could interact with more than just talking, why weren’t they acting as the perfect spies for the ones they wanted to help instead of just showing up randomly to trickle out a tiny bit of information, argue with a master, or stare approvingly after victory?

        Kinda like the whole “so this whole time, ftl jumps could have been used as a weapon? Why only that one time?”

        And wtf @ light skipping? Sure, it makes for a cool looking chase scene, but just doesn’t make sense on several levels. Maybe it would work if it was a force sensitive pilot who could sense the direction and timing, but even if they had done that, they went from Tatooine to Aldaran taking hours to suddenly they can almost instantly jump between a large variety of biomes all during one short chase scene.

        Those movies would have been ok as their own thing IMO but were just bad star wars movie with lazy writing.
