I’m summing this up very briefly. If you want to read the full thing look at the original reddit post. This talks about what JJ’s cut of the movie looks like

-JJ Abrams original cut was 3 hours and 2 minutes long. Disney published the final cut in November and changed multiple thing without JJ’s permission or blessing. Musical changes were made, and things were edited out and stitched together like “scotch tape”

- there were four extra scenes with Rose that JJ wanted in the movie. Two involving Rey, and two more involving Leia. Disney said these scenes were too “risky”

- Jannah is confirmed Lando’s daughter

- Finn is confirmed force sensitive. He even gets to say it out loud! Uses the force on accident to open a door on the star destroyer. Disney changed this to a cgi BB-8 in the final cut.

- Rey was always meant to be a palparine, Ben was always supposed to be redeemed. And Ben was always supposed to die (the source states that they did not see the very first draft so Ben possibly might’ve survived that draft, but every other draft after he is always supposed to die)

- JJ didn’t want to make kylo and Rey kiss. But they did hug and speak to eachpther for over two minutes of screen time after Rey is resurrected.

- JJ wanted FinnPoe to happen. But Disney said NO. Plain and simple unfortunately.

- kylo and Rey each get many more scenes devoted to them figuring themselves out (Ben being redeemed and Rey figuring out she’s a Palpatine) The source praises Adams acting in these scenes.

- the force ghosts were supposed to BE THERE with Rey when she went against Palpatine. Samuel L Jackson, Hayden Christenson, and Ewan Mcgreggor were all on set and in costume to film the scene. Disney cut this and opted for voice overs instead
