They really really fucked Boyega over He played Finn note-perfect as someone on the beginning of a Hero's Journey, the washout defective stormtrooper who just wants to get the hell out and live a quiet life but the war he was raised to fight keeps pulling him back in

But they never finished the journey It doesn't go anywhere He just ends up a sidekick to Rey Without taking anything away from Daisy Ridley, that was total fucking bullshit

I'm totally fine - more than fine - with you making the Black character a flawed person with a streak of self-serving cowardice (just like Han Solo was to start with) IF IT PAYS OFF IN THE END If you get the big hero moment, looking Leia in the eyes and saying "I know"

If you don't pay it off, then all that just becomes a straight up insult, you just slapped all the Black fans pinning their hopes on this character in the face, including the kids Where's Finn's "You're all clear, kid!"? Where's his "I know"?

Finn is just so darn loveable, and I hate what they did to him in movies 2 and 3.

I will never not believe Abrams originally intended Finn as Rey’s love interest.

I always read jar-jar as the prequels version of Chewbacca. Funny alien sidekick, except opposite. Where Chewie was strong, tough and silent (bar the roars and growls) Jar-Jar was clumsy, cowardly and talkative.
