Having watched TROS a grand total of twice now, I can say that it was much easier to digest the second time around, for me.
The parts that I loved I still really love. Leia's sacrifice still gets me. The Kylo vs Rey fight in the water is dope as hell. And Kylo's redemption, albeit kind of quick and short-lived, is still good. (The kiss is still super awkward though.)
But man, I just can't get onboard with Palpatine's return out of nowhere, and the forced connection to Rey. (No pun intended.) Not to mention the stupidity of his defeat. (Just STOP force lightning yourself. I mean really?)
And having read the Trevorrow script, I do wish we'd seen Coruscant. This was the capital of the galaxy and the most important setting of the prequels, and it would've been nice to see SOME acknowledgement of the PT in the final movie. Hell, even ROTJ showed us a bit of Coruscant at the end.
And for whatever reason, all the ships showing up at the end still doesn't quite hit for me, emotionally. A moment that big/important should have made a bigger impact, but it just didn't. I think it's because it didn't feel earned, like the portals moment in Endgame.
Alas.
