How would YOU have done Episodes 7-8-9?

It's pretty clear to me Disney is only trying to fan service the old characters long enough to get them out of the way so the new ones can shine. But, IMHO, that is not how you get old and new fans on board.

So, How would YOU have written these movies? Just to make it challenging, Rules: you have to keep the same characters.

I would have started off episode 7 with simple fun. A battle. After 30 years, the Rebellion has finally mopped up the last of the Empire, and we are seeing the last mop up efforts. Luke is in his Xwing, leading a squad of jedi star fighters out to finish the job. Helping the last liberated planet recover, we meet Luke's new apprentice, Rey. seems there is a Jedi Mystery on the planet, and it's her mission to uncover it. Something that could literally destroy the force forever.
Meanwhile, the last Grand Admiral of the empire, Hux, Survives. he finds the Jedi secret, and seeks out someone who can actually do something with it to get revenge on the Jedi for finally whiping out the Empire, by destroying all life in the galaxy.

Thus begins a race against time against all three movies. An uncertain apprentice, Rey, starts her own hero's journey and finds her place in the universe as the student to the most legendary hero in the galaxy. Luke stays on coruscant to offer support and advice where needed. lea does the same. they arn't main characters, but you know they succeeded in life and lived happily ever after, restoring peace to the galaxy. I would also make Finn the new Lando. Maybe even the son of Lando.
