Trash for so many different reasons. But hey, when you're gonna make big bread regardless, there's no incentive to make a movie that makes sense

What happens to Kylo? Redemption? Death? Both? Spoil it for me breh.I enjoyed it. Easily the best of the sequel trilogy and better than the first two prequels.
Palpatine being back was cool, they used Finn and Poe better, they used Luke better, and the fight scenes were good. I liked the twist with Rey being a Palpatine.
My one big beef was that I thought that Leia's death was a bit cheesy and I'm not sure exactly why her dying suddenly converted him back to the light. Granted, I know Carrie Fisher passed and they had to do what they could, but I just don't think that scene really made sense. And I would've appreciated an explanation for how Palpatine survived other than "IDK, clones or the dark side or something probably". And one other minor criticism is that the subplot with C3P0 losing his memory was kind of a waste of time if he was just going to get it back 30 minutes later.
Still though, I thought it was better than expected.
Don't say you didn't ask.
So Kylo and Rey are having a lightsaber fight. Leia uses the last of her strength to use Force Telepathy (or something) to reach out to Kylo Ren, which distracts him long enough for Rey to stab him through the torso. Then Leia becomes one with the force (same as Luke), and after that Rey uses her force powers to heal Kylo and stop him from dying, then leaves. After that Kylo is confused about what do to, then a force ghost of Han Solo appears and basically convinces him to come back to the light.
Later on near the end, Ben Solo (no longer Kylo Ren) shows up to help Rey beat Palpatine. Rey manages to kill him but dies in the process, so Ben sacrifices his own life (by giving Rey his life force) to save her.
So yeah, long story short Kylo converts back to the light side, then sacrifices his life to save Rey.

I didn't watch the movie yet, but I knew about the spoilers ahead of time. How does Han Solo appear as a force ghost when he was never a Jedi?
Is that even explained at all?

Thats why Im saying its contrived. Sounds like something thats pulled outta someone's ass to play on the emotions. Dumb.I didn't watch the movie yet, but I knew about the spoilers ahead of time. How does Han Solo appear as a force ghost when he was never a Jedi?

Nostalgia and money.
Stronger than any power the force could imagine

Nope and neither is Palpatine's return even after being vaporized in a energy shaft 40 years earlier....
They just jacked ideas straight from the EU Books, ie Anakin Solo....I mean Ben Solo disappearing when he died...Palps taking down Star Destroyers, Sith Holocrons, sorry, Sith "Wayfinders"...

it is explained and it's not a force ghost, Kylo tells him "You're just a memory" and Han replies "Yes, your memory".
It's JJ thinking that if we just see Kylo contemplating we wouldn't understand what he's struggling with, so he beats us over the head with 'KYLO FEELS TROUBLED BY HAVING KILLED HAN SOLO, I KNOW WE'VE MENTIONED THIS LIKE 6 TIMES BY NOW BUT HERE'S HARRISON FORD ONE MORE TIME TO EXPLAIN IT'.
If you want an example of what a true cowardly hack JJ is here's the best one:
After the battle is won, a random rebel..I mean resistance fighter
... walks up to Chewbacca and hands him a medal….the same medal that everyone except him got at the end of the OG Star Wars 
Chewie gives the 
and then it cuts to two lesbians kissing. That's not a joke.

Han isn't a Force Ghost.I didn't watch the movie yet, but I knew about the spoilers ahead of time. How does Han Solo appear as a force ghost when he was never a Jedi?

He is a memory of Kylo Ben's.
Basically Ben's conscience in the form of his dad.
JJ really did go overboard with the fan service.it is explained and it's not a force ghost, Kylo tells him "You're just a memory" and Han replies "Yes, your memory".
