absolute worst shit in the world.

And to think they put Timothy Zahn's sequel work aside for this garbage.

They flushed the whole EU. They didn't even pick it's bones for the best bits (until recently), they just messed with the dynamics that worked.

In my opinion, Rey is supposed to be Jaina and Kylo is supposed to be Jacen. Force Awakens has weird moments between the characters that can only make sense if Rey is Han and Leia's daughter. JJ tried to add 'mystery' by hiding this fact, and then Johnson throws it all away to do his own thing.
