Rose: Let me explain slavery to you.

Finn: I was basically a slave until two days ago.

Broom Boy: I was totally a slave under the New Republic.

Rose: You’re welcome.

I wonder how many Resistance volunteers got blown up in the transports because Rose wouldn't let them leave.

Dark.

Dark and *valid*.

Who gave her the authority? Didn?t she draw a weapon on Finn?

Wouldn?t let them leave...that?s some First Order style right there.

Finn is such a **** character.
What do you mean, he is awesome:monkey3

I actually did like him in TFA. In TLJ, he was forgettable.

Then again, so was pretty much the entire film, sans some scenes.
 
A lot of the background for the Mandalorians and the Fetts can be traced back to these two Marvel comics - and I wouldn't be surprised if the presence of Jawas and a Sandcrawler in The Mandalorian was inspired by the latter issue (in which Boba escapes the Sarlacc but has amnesia).

Finn is such a **** character.

The idea of a stormtrooper shedding his armor to join the rebellion, becoming a highly trained but possibly untrustworthy "ally," is really cool.

The fact they made Finn a newbie stormtrooper, who'd never shot anyone, on his very first mission, who pretty much instantly becomes a goofy-plucky sweetheart who forgot all about his stormtrooper training... is one of the lamest things ever.

Of course the idea of a defecting Stormtrooper does bring us back to the famous debate in Clerks. How many possible Finns were on those Death Stars.....
 
So much failure. Maybe one day a pattern can be discovered...

I believe it was already established that recognizing patterns makes you a misogynist, a racist, and a bigot. Either pretend you don't see it or just keep your mouth shut if you don't want your life ruined by strangers on the internet.

Of course the idea of Clerks brings us back to a teary, obese (in Fat Man shirt no less) Kevin Smith shilling for JJ and the ST back in 2014.:monkey3
 
And what?s worse is he had potential to be a very deep character but they just made him the guy who chased the white girl around he barely even knows.

He came off as pathetic when he told her she looked at him like a human being for the first time but the first time they met she accused him of stealing . Superb writing

OK, I'll burn on this hill:cool: - I liked Rey and Finn's TFA intro to each other a lot. It was fun, good chemistry, and great to have 2 have-nothings run into each other. One didn't even have a name, one scrabbling by getting cheated by some grungy slob (+ there was that nice shot of Rey with the old sunburnt women, probably thinking that was her fate). Didn't see it as pathetic.

IMO their dynamic had so much potential. Not romance exactly - tho could've been - but at least there was this brother/sister vibe early on. I thought Boyega had a great moment too when he said "you don't know anything about me. Where I've been...what I've seen". I really bought that Finn had seen some terrible, terrible things. I REALLY liked the idea of a lowly Stormtrooper - characters that never get any attention - wanting out. So cool! So original!

I could believe in these two 'coz they both are have-nothings. Disposable beings probably worth less than a used speeder. I like they more or less stand together against Kylo.

IMO a lot of promise which all got derailed in TLJ for a pair with IMO no chemistry at all (Rose and Finn) and the ghastly bit of Rose apparently being in love with Finn - srsly she hardly knows the guy:pfft:. IMO horrible jog with no lead-in to this great love or whatever the *&^% is supposed to be going on. WTF.

Finn could've been the light against Kylo's darkness - Kylo seems all over the place, which makes him interesting - but Finn just knows right from wrong. He's the one you could count on. He's the one who drew the line. Now IMO it's pretty muddled probably just to get, in the end, to making Rey super-special or some *&&^%. 'Coz she was just born that way.:cool:

It's not that I won't have a good time at ROS; it's just *great writing and original character development, it is not*. It's too late and too muddled with Poe and Rose and even dead characters getting screen time.:chug

We never even got a hint of what those terrible things were, and never will. Or forget actually seeing them - even how they impacted him. The stormtrooper set-up was simply that - a set-up that was totally thrown away. No PTSD, let alone the training coming back to haunt him in some way, any way - messing with his loyalty, his function, his ability to open up to people etc etc.

Just so incredibly lame. From stormtrooper to guy leaking water for laughs.:slap

Rose instantly fell in love because she was a Finn mega-fan/worshipper. Many people today can relate to that, and can imagine themselves instantly falling in love with the object of their fandom.
