The major criticism for J.J., Abrams first Star Wars movie was that it followed the formula of Star Wars: A New Hope a little too closely.
Of course, exactly what’s going to happen to Ben Solo by the end of the current Star Wars trilogy is one of the big questions left for Star Wars Episode IX to answer.
Especially following on the events of Star Wars: The Last Jedi, that seems unlikely to happen for the final episode of the trilogy.
While Kylo Ren seems to be far past the point of redemption, the possibility for a last minute change of heart is always there.
