    Watched four through six before checking out 7.

    Do you have some examples that you’re talking about specifically besides mega death Star?

    It seemed pretty clear to me that Disney was trying to remimagine elements of four so that they could have a new series all to themselves, but the movie itself felt new in a lot of ways.

    Finn was a huge part of that, there was never a character like him before.

    They also didn’t have a Kenobi leading them through everything.

    It’s the Star wars universe so a lot of the themes and elements (spaceships, and overbearing government, manichean forces) are going to be similar, but you had new characters doing different things for different reasons in different situations for most of the movie.
