At some point, you've gotta realize some folks aren't here for discussing the movie. Whether or not that's some folks' agenda here (or even someone like me, lol) if up to you to decide.Gotcha. Like this, right? ;-)

Is there a novelization of this movie yet?
As it is, people having the most difficulty with Luke aren’t the base these films are catering to.
Well, they F...ing should be! SW is only the phenomenal success because the fans of the OT made it that way. What Disney/LFL are doing is giving that same fan base the middle finger with both hands. If this new SW is for a new generation of fans, what's the point of even including the original characters just to do them a gross disservice? I wish I could be as pragmatic as Bryan but I'm in it for the love of Star Wars not the perks of financial success available to share holders.
But the trilogy is not over.

One hundred and twenty one pages tell a different story

With all the publicity, with all the money spent on commercials and ads and "in your face" SW. I sure hope they are the box office champ. Cause boy that would have sucked.
Time will tell, if this new trilogy and these new fans, will act and feel the same way, as we did. Like I said many pages back, this new generation is a Pokemon Go, a League of Legends, a Call of duty. Not a sit still and watch a movie, generation. So I wish Disney good luck with the completion of this. They will probably get another $10 plus popcorn from me. Unless someone pays for my ticket,
You can be my date.

Of course it did, it's SW. But it still under-performed compared to TFA. TFA did 1 billion in 12 days, TLJ took 3 weeks, iirc. Part 9 will be even worse if they don't get out ahead of this and cater to the fans that don't like what they saw.
The fact that they are trying to spin Luke as a hero that stayed away out of duty and personal responsibility, instead of the fearful old man (I wasn't afraid then, I am now.) that was in the movie, shows us that they understand they made a mistake.
I've brought this point up to you before. But you ignored that post.
Though not a champ here 52.93% negative in this thread's poll
& now dropped to 90% for the critic & 49% for the audience on Rotten Tomatoes
No matter how much money it makes, there is something seriously wrong with the film
