TLJ copied plenty of scenes from other Star Wars movies as well though.

Sure, but it did new things with them. The references in TLJ were for the most part unique. TFA made references and did the exact same thing with them or mirrored them almost every time.

Except it wasn't really unique at all.

DA It honestly isn't that different. Large chunks of the structure of the movie are the same between TLJ and ESB. The Rebel fleet flees Imperial/First Order retaliation from Hoth/D'Qar. Luke/Rey are on Dagobah/Ahch-To seeking the old Jedi master Yoda/Luke to teach them/join the effort, but the old master is struggling with history/isolation/perceived guilt over allowing the current Dark Sider to come into being. During the movie, Han-Leia/Finn-Rose go to meet an independent shady ally in Cloud City/Canto Bight. Said ally promptly betrays them (though DJ had nowhere near the pathos and panache of Lando doing it).

Admittedly, Luke doing his Obi-Wan moment in the second movie rather than the first was a slight change, but not that much of one. And Kylo overthrowing Snoke is a semi-decent twisted version of Vader killing the Emperor. But honestly, a lot of the story points are beat for beat from the original trilogy even in TLJ. It's not doing that much different.

I remember when TFA came out and everyone complained about what a carbon copy it was. And then TLJ came out and suddenly TFA was new and innovative? Sure.
