They completely glossed over the death of Admiral Ackbar. They briefly mentioned it and I'm not saying they had to have a funeral scene but he was a top person in the rebellion and yet no one seemed to care he died. They pretty much treated him like he was a nameless grunt.
Also one of my biggest issues besides the first half of the movie being boring as shit is they didn't kill Princess Leia. Look we all know how good Carrie was in the role but she's dead and yet Leia is still alive. So instead of giving her a big sendoff farewell(maybe have her be the one to suicide hyper drive into TFO) they act like she's gonna be around in Episode 9 which is the absolute worst thing they could've done. Now she's either A) killed off-screen which is a big fuck you to all the fans or B) still "around" but she's conveniently on some mission we never see or just off screen the whole time and is still talked about like she's still there which is still a big fuck you to the fans.
It would be neat to have Ackbar's son involved, where maybe there's another 'It's a trap!' line to pay homage to the Admiral.
Also, where was Wedge Antilles?
He survived Episodes 4, 5, and 6, and was involved in major fights scenes in all three movies.
Did he train Poe?
It's those little nerd things that make the universe what it should be....
