They might hit something this time too.....
Would be hard to be more useless than the Star Destroyers in TLJ, they were content to sit back and watch a Dreadnought get obliterated. Don't even think they fired a shot in that movie ffs.

oooh, it was the range, it was the sublight chase, with the benny hill music, they couldn't fire, as somehow it is ineffective against sheields at that range, and they could send one of their ships to hypersepdd to mash the final rebel fleet, as no one invented that until the end of the movie... shame...
Just showed this to my brother and he said Star wars needs to end, is he a witch and should he be burnt
Agreed, loved rogue one.
That's one hell of a lot of star destroyers
Yeah but all they need to do to take them out is get a couple of ships to go to hyperspace in front of them

I don't know if they ever had a plan but the three films are just rehashing the original trilogy to keep old fans happy, which they never will be, and as such have made no efforts to actually make a new story with any coherence.
Yeah cos how complicated is it to power up and fly a star destroyer? Oh wait Rey knows how to operate and expertly fly every spacecraft in the galaxy.Looking at that clip of the Star Destroyers they appear to be all powered down, only lights coming from a few of them. Wouldn't surprise me if they're mostly just "parked" there unmanned. Probably see the rebels hijacking a few to bring to the final fight.
I don't think any "old fans" (myself included) wanted a re-hash of the OT, that was the biggest "old fan" complaint about Ep7 - that it was just a rehash of Ep4 - and I think the "old fans" wanted to see a continuation of the 3 main characters story leading into a slow "passing of the torch" moment to a new generation.
Instead none of that really happened in a logical progression i.e. Ep7 Main story about old 3 stars and intro to new stars - Ep8 hand-over between old stars and new - Ep9 new stars fully take over and old stars bow out with a "ride into the sunset" etc so instead we end up with ridiculous situations like we never get to see all 3 old stars together (HOW????) or we get new stars forced into prominence without feeling that they "earned" that prominence vs the old stars yet and so it's a mess.
I agree with the rest of your post BTW!
