Although i haven't seen The Last Jedi i do think for me it will have the same problems The Force Awakens did and to a lesser extent Rogue One.

The original trilogy story lines were fairly linear. The action took place largely in three places for each film - Tatooine, The Death Star, space (battle) - Hoth, Dagobah, Bespin - Tatooine, Endor, Death Star.

These new films are all over the place. jumping from planet to planet and escapade to escapade. Just stop. Take a look at things, let your characters develop. Slow down. And see what made the original films so popular.

Damn. Even the prequel films worked that out, even if you didn't like characters such as Anakin.
