Ray from nowhere and the kid with the force at the end was a great message that a hero can be from anywhere.

Ray being a nobody and Snoke getting killed without any backstory was two of the best twists possible. Both undone.

The throne room battle was actually sick as well and yeah snoke getting smoked was 10/10

I thought Snoke getting smoked was one of the coolest uses of a standard "evil chair alien" that I've ever seen. Just a cool twist that set up a power vacuum intrigue with Kylo Ren. Que my immediate bafflement when I went online and saw legions of nerds malding that Supreme Lord Snoke didn't get hours of backstory and lore explanation.

Oh yeah the throne room fight was good, like more of a brawl than over choreographed stuff in the prequels.

Yeah very reminiscent of the ROTJ sand dunes fight in some ways, lots of chaos even tho it's less kinetic (the back and forth between the barge makes that one way cooler in many ways)
