Of course she does...
Figures. He's nothing but a dumb dog and memberberry in the eyes of Disney that's too stupid to even be allowed to own the Falcon so they just give it to Rey.OOOH FUCK ,I FORGOT. In the end when they celebrate, orange yoda comes to Chewie and says you deserve it and gives a medal to Chewie.
MEMBER NEW HOPE WHERE HE DIDNT GET A MEDAL!‽‽?
Anyway this whole thing comes off akward as fuck because after what chewie did to help the resistance, giving him a medal for his efforts seems fucking insulting and weird. Like giving a exceptional kid a participation throphy.
To be fair, Lucasfilm was doing this back in the prequel era, too.
For example, all that Syfo-Dias nonsense in Attack of the Clones.
Syfo-Dyas really wasn't important or essential to anything. Just a plot device that was easy to understand "former jedi is killed and then used as an alias by the bad guys to do evil things undercover". The material did give him more depth which was appreciated (and that's how supplementary tie-in material should work) but it wasn't necessary to understand the film's plot or characters unlike whatever the fuck JJ just pulled with Snoke and Palpatine.to be honest I never really went into any of the EU stuff. I've heard that clone wars in particular helps to flesh out some of the more underwritten characters in the prequels (aka all of them)
The villains other than Palpatine just felt so thin. darth maul has I think 1 line? dooku/grevious both suffered because they were introduced with barely any context, which like you said, I'm sure was expanded upon in other media.
