....TLJ was absolute trash that killed the character of Luke, killed Luke, kept Rey as a stupidly powerful Mary Sue, killed Snoke without even explaining who he is, and had generally retarded plot holes. How anyone could've liked that dumpster fire is beyond me.

Opinions vary. I don’t know how you didn’t like the masterpiece. Sidious was killed and we didn’t know shit about him until the prequels. For ****s sake you people can’t see what isn’t right in front of you.
there was actual build up to Sidious dying though. He didn't get killed off almost as an after thought. He died while killing Vader in an act that also redeemed Anakin. His death was also climactic. Unlike Snoke, his death basically triggered the end of the Battle of Endor.
Seriously, Luke gave into his darkest emotions after seeing a possible future and tried to kill Kylo while his father (who had actually murdered people) gets a free pass. He's so ashamed of driving Kylo into the arms of Snoke that he resolves to run away an not help fix the problem that he helped make. He doesn't give a single sh*t that his best friend and actual brother is dead at the hands of his student. I thought Leia would get a pretty solid and respectful death, but instead, she just completely ignores the effects of space, explosive missiles, and a lack of air and just floats back to the ship (with Poe opening the door and them not flying out). Anyone remember how Rose's sister died in the single most impractical and rediculous bomber ever. Speaking of Rose, "all you need is love".
Seriously, that movie was trash, and I got my money back because it was so bad that I had to leave mid film.

Just because he didn’t die at the end of the fil, that changes nothing. What’s annoying is is so similar to Sidious since we didn’t know many details about Sidious either. Both are the powerful manipulative masters who died suddenly when we didn’t know everything about both characters.
Snoke triggered another evolution in Kylo. It’s different than what happened in Vader since Kylo went further down the rabbit hole of evil as opposed to Vader’s redemption through his son.
Luke didn’t try to kill Kylo he was tempted. He passed the test. He saw the error in his own ways and didn’t follow through.
Luke saw the error and folly of the arrogance of the Jedi and falsely believed he couldn’t help the situation. He did care. Do not pretend he didn’t care. This man cares too damn much is the problem.
So this didn’t match your expectations of what you believed would happen. That’s fine and dandy but this is part of my problem with Star Wars fandom. I hear the whining and crybaby shenanigans over the prequels now the new Star Wars. If it doesn’t line up with every single fans expectations they tear into it without mercy.
Just more gripes.
Ok, you hated it I loved it. Just go rewatch the originals since this film ripped your heart out.
Kylo struggling with his heritage, but just turning more and more evil with every move he makes, plus his connection he feels with Rey, is all a much more interesting arc than shouting “I am a Sidious Wannabe”. In my opinion of course.
