Curious as hell on what they're going to do bout it.

it makes sense and i understand what you saying, but that goes against what they just presented in this movie...luke's whole speech to rey was about everyone/thing having access/connection to the force, and that's why the jedi must end...
the issue to me is that in epi 1-6, the force was always there and acknowledged in some way, but it was still a mystery to the majority of people....they mocked it, didnt believe in it, etc....you really had to have a true connection to it and/or dive deep into it to understand/get it......these 3 new movies have taken it from behind the curtain and put it on front street and are now basically saying everyone can partake in the force, you just gotta say it enough times to make it true....
prime ex: leia...like you said, she wasnt trained/honed her connection to the force, but yet and still she was able to do what she did in this movie...come on man....
The emporor was usinf the force to kill LukeDid the Emporor sense Vader was going to kill him in ROJ?
not only that, they shouldve went through with the setup of how that explosion happened....that wouldve helped a certain character's development and went with the shyt he was saying at the end....

That’s Leia shyt came out of left field breh. But it can be explained away that she’s the child of Anakin, one of the most powerful force users ever so that was light work for her.
Look at it this way...where did Jedi come from? Not from Jedi, they weren’t allowed to have kids. So they picked normal beings up as children who had strong connections to the force.
The original trilogy really only gave us Han’s perspective on that by the way. He was the only one to really mock it. I’d say a large portion of the universe knew the Force existed especially since the Jedi were huge presences in the Clone Wars which ended not very long before the movies. Vader stamped out the Jedi to the point where i believe a certain section of people didn’t acknowledge them due to fear and conditioning. nikkas on the Death Star and in the Empire were well aware that it existed after being choked out or electrocuted
The issue I have with the new movies (and the cartoons) isn’t that the Force is more accessible...there will always be Force users in the galaxy. It’s what we were talking about where untrained people are picking up lightsabers and bodying nikkas. That shouldn’t happen and I don’t like the direction. Having a connection to the force and actually knowing how to use that connection are totally different things.

He didnt defeat luke, luke committed suicide

if she's never trained/honed her skills (which what's been presented, she hasnt), i dont give a damn whose child she is, you cant just pull that out your ass lol....and that's what it seems they doing with rey, finn, and everyone else....connection, cool, i understand that's the whole 'life aura connection' shyt, but being able to use it all willy nilly just cause of that connection, come on......which is my issue....which seems to be your issue with it as well...

I really think that Episode IX is going to make significantly less money. I don't doubt it will still make a shyt ton, but I really think a lot of people will hop off the bandwagon after this one.
I just don't think Rey and Kylo could draw money like Luke and Han.

I agree, otherwise we woulda had Leia being like Rey in the first trilogy.That’s Leia shyt came out of left field breh. But it can be explained away that she’s the child of Anakin, one of the most powerful force users ever so that was light work for her.

Rey & Kylo definitely established a strong emotionnal connection, to a point where Rey dropped everything and go on a suicidal mission to try to bring him back while he betrays & kill Snoke for her.
Reylo did happen : it wasn't romantic or passionnate (yet), but it was there (enough to make me puke).
Problem : for this storyline to "work", Rey has to be all alone : Finn had to be written off in a dumpster storyline, wih a sh***y and shoehorned pseudo-romance.
Oh, and since we need to sell more BB-8 toys, Finn had to completely fumble his way through the movie : that allowed BB-8 to do all the heavy lifting and get all the badass moments.
In TFA, Finn was Rey's sidekick. In TLJ, he was BB-8's. Tell you what : at this rate, he will become a Porg's sidekick in ep IX.

I never thought I could be bored watching a Star Wars movie 
The action outside of Poe in the first 5 minutes was meh
If Rey is a nobody why is she so strong?
