but the casino stuff was just braindead on so many levels.
IMO the casino stuff failed on a single level : it was utherless useless to the plot in all ways possible.
Remove the entire arc, and the plot to TLJ doesn't change at all. Heck, you can entirely remove Finn and the chinese girl from the movie, and the plot doesn't change at all.
Every other failure of the casino arc is rooted in this poor writing.
