I'd say these are teasers instead of spoilers but the kids these days they don't distinguish so.

I love that Leia and Han were wistful instead of recriminatory.

I was pretty sure they were going to do the thing. Lots of people thought they were going to do the thing. I've done the thing myself.

It's so meta that the villain's story is his fear that he'll never be the villain Darth Vader was.

The story structure echoes Episode IV in a billion little ways that I won't list and actually don't remember now.

Mostly though I'd say it captured the spirit of the thing in the way that's why I don't dislike the prequels: it was fun.
