I enjoyed part 6 about the lightsaber battles and part 7 when you see Lucas and his team watching the finished product in dismay at how awful the movie was and knowing they could not fix it in editing.

Basically they knew they released a turd onto the market.

I didn't really have an issue with the Force Awakens though because sure it's a total ripoff in one sense of the original movie - but the 12 year olds watching the movie weren't around for the original movie - and 12 year olds is the target audience - so why screw with the formula.

The second film can now, hopefully, go in a totally new direction because the first one hooked the audience enough. Rey is a strong enough character to hang your hat on as well so with luck (and please this time a good script) it could be a much better movie. Empire was to Star Wars so you never know.
