Nonetheless, Poe has screwed up royally at this point and it's entirely plausible that he'd kick off at the notion of running. The crew as a whole goes along with the orders; we have the doomed pilot of one of the smaller ships saluting Holdo in his last moments. We even see that with how Poe only enlists, what, five people for his coup and most of them are his own pilots.
I'm just dubious about whether Johnson was playing to a racial stereotype as opposed to working from the character presented to him in some of the prior materials - as I understand it, in the comics Poe was already depicted as something of a loose cannon who needed to learn to rein himself in. And in the story, Poe is riding high on the back of the success on Takodana, and a really big victory with the Starkiller mission. So he's looking at this Dreadnought and like he says, "We've pulled crazier stunts than this."
It's an attitude I've seen in whitewater kayaking, and it's one I've fallen prey to myself. You lose sight of some factors (not least because you're often a guy in his late teens or early 20s), and end up running a rapid which you probably should walk around.
Abram's had no obligation to return and try to make something out of the last movie of the franchise, that due to the abysmal lack of planning was always going to be a shit show.
We went over this several pages back: the lack of an over-arching plan doesn't preclude the story working. The Dark Knight Trilogy and the new Planet of the Apes (which even switched directors partway through) were both written on a "here's the prior entry, where can we go from here?" basis and while they didn't have carry the same protagonist-antagonist dynamic across their arcs, still worked as cohesive trilogies. The Rise of Skywalker fails because Abrams and Terrio grab a bunch of stuff from the prior film and instead of saying "yes and" or "yes but", go "well ACTUALLY..."
So we don't get a film which feels like a third film, and certainly not a culmination. It doesn't change the core conflict, it swaps it for a different one. It doesn't set up new character arcs for its heroes; for the most part it walks them back to where they were at the end of the first film except for Finn, who is around Rey but whose only "meaningful" moment strips his defection of any moral agency. Themes are dealt with via
lip service which the events of the narrative actively contradict.
And most of that is on how Abrams tells a story, because we've seen him pull this in Into Darkness. Seriously, Kirk goes back to being the reckless guy who's put under Pyke's supervision, he's in conflict with Spock again while the entire crew have to relearn how to work together.
