Just to add to this, I think JJ Abrams is bad even in comparison to other vapid blockbuster filmmakers like Michael Bay. Rise of Skywalker is bad not just in comparison to other movies generally but it’s bad in comparison to soulless profit hungry movies. It’s bad compared to Transformers.

People always say Spielberg is to blame for a lot of bad things in modern movies but most of the time it’s actually JJ Abrams being treated as if he is Spielberg

not a fan.
Abrams is too enamoured of snappy banter to write a good character, even when working with characters fans already know and like.
Like the fact he's considered a fixer is very bad for the industry because his greatest skill is getting along with executives and making no fuss
