Has anyone addressed officially why the Force could not be used on them? I don't mean that in a confrontational way. It's something I actually wondered about.

The freezing of blaster bolts and people in place opened a big hole for me in TFA. Even at their most powerful, Jedi mostly seemed to be able to knock assailants off balance (worked better against the non-living).
Anyone find it odd that we STILL have never seen a clear shot of the actual Knights of Ren that were in the film, like the finished costumes? Just concept art and those super dark raining screencaps. No behind the scenes shots or visual dictionary production photos.

Not a miss fire , a joke I purposely ignored everything else you said and focused on the one bit I wanted ! A satirical way of pushing your own point forward but wah wah . you missed it I failed in my funny !!!

This is a great video about the problems with TLJ and this new trilogy in general.
For those who can't be bothered, the summation is 15:50.

Yes. Lack of direction and a disregard for what came before. The whole thing plays out like a one off movie. Everything wraps up at the end with nothing hanging over to the next movie. Much like ANH, except that GL didn't make it as part of a trilogy. At the time, George had one shot at making the movie he wanted, it's success allowed for a sequel or two.
This is probably why RJ turned down epIX. He made TLJ as if it was his one and only chance to do a SW movie.
To me, it seems self indulgent, shortsighted and naive. Every explaination he gives for all the errors, omissions and wtf moments just expose his fundamental misunderstanding of Star Wars. Whether you subscribe or not to the concept of SWIQ as coined by @The Wook, somethings are not right with this movie.
I would liken it to watching bad cgi, your mind knows something is wrong and wil not accept it.

This is great. Rian just tweeted a series of photos. The first shows a shelf of books presumably in his home. Then he does a close up showing he has the books The Jedi Path and The Book of Sith. He cracks open Jedi Path to the section titled Advanced Force Techniques and finally this entry...

Is that part of the EU?
I don’t recall if Lucasfilm included these two books as part of the EU purge as they aren’t really stories, they are fictional instruction books for a Jedi or Sith and reference film caninical
events and characters.

That pretty much sums it up right there!
Not to worry though as there will be another re-boot after the next one by people who 'Get It" :rolleyes

I tweeted to Pablo, here I his response.
I find that answer vague and unconvincing!
When it comes in to canon questions that’s his usual methodology.
But just like Thrawn being brought into Rebels canon, if Rian used it then it’s official, at least the specific bit from the book, perhaps not all entries in the book, though.
