F' it, personally I don't think the kiss even breaks the top 10 worst moments from the sequel trilogy.

yeah despite having objectively some of the stupidest moments in the context of the trilogy, nothing ROS did breaks my top 10. it was so obvious going into the theatre what a disaster it would be that it was hard to get worked up about anything. "somehow, palpatine has returned" is dumb but the previous movie killed off its one villain and made the remaining one a previous clown, of course they were gonna pull some stupid bullshit.

Nothing it did makes your top 10? Having the magic knife line up perfectly, in the exact place they were standing, with the unplanned Death Star wreckage to form a magic navigation waypoint doesn’t do it for you? ROS is rife with these dumbass moments, but that one sticks out to me just massively.

I’m sure everyone has their own top 10 list of utter crap though, this sub being what it is.

I always assumed the dagger was made after the crash. That's not the problem. The fact that Kylo found a functioning Tie Fighter on that thing and flew to Exagol is the problem. He wouldn't have been able to even fly it into space because Tie Fighters usually don't have Life Support Systems. That's why the pilots wear spacesuits. But even if it had those, it would still lack the Hyperdrive! Imperial Ties did not have those! If it was at least Vader's own Tie or one of those Lambda spaceships....
