Ah, someone else noticed it also.
I wish the story was just more focussed. The Casino scene was horrible and felt crowbarred in, stylistically much too similar to TPM. Talking of which, did they use Maul's death on Snoke as an echo to the wasting of another great villain too soon? Those bloody birds, Luke's shoulder brush and flying Leia need to all get in an unfathomably vast puddle.
Overall though, some great cinematography and genuinely funny moments. Will undoubtably watch again. Probably enjoy it a bit more than having a crick neck for 2.5 hours on a school night.
