Honestly their dynamic was great. I hope we see more of them together in the next film.

The bits when those two are together are the best parts of the film.

Poe did kinda get shafted in this one, didn't he?

I hear he disappears after the escape to Jakku and is thought dead, but just reappears later on?

yeah, when the resistance comes to attack the first order on takodana at maz kanata's castle, poe is leading the squadron

Ah, well at least it's a kick ass reappearance.

Finn's story needs to be his adventures with Poe in the resistance in ep8/9

So what if the main romance of this franchise ends up being Finn and Poe?

>>9647

Still a better love story than Anakin and Padme.

Poe is the Mary Sue of the skies: gets his shit fucked up but manages to pilot an enemy fighter competently, subsequently Boba Fetted to give Finndu more filler screen time, wipes out a plethora of TIEs in one pass, and ultimately destroys the DS3. Basically a Leia/Wedge combo.

As for Finn, I dunno what the fuck he was even in for. I expected him to be a main character who obviously defects but is trained as a Jedi, basically Luke from the OT. Instead we get a character who is shown to be incompetent and cowardly (despite being a supposed exceptional Stormtrooper) soldier who deserts his position right off the bat with little motive, and then becomes a background character who is used for the occasional "comedic relief" (speaking of which, that Jew really felt the need to force humor throughout the movie.) I dunno why anyone would think this is appeasing the masses by including a black person, as it was done before and better; Finn does nothing more than act idiotic and chimp out.

Another wasted potential of a character was Phasma. The two-second scene of her in the trailers made me think she was going to be some ace pilot or soldier in the new Empire who was going to kick some ass or play a major role in the movie. Instead she gets two more seconds of screen time to talk some pointless bullshit and then gets captured by a ragtag group of foolhardy amateurs who promptly give her a Penn Jilette special. I can't wait for them to explain in Ep. 8 how she survived the explosion of the DS3.

Finn and Poe were great, THE biggest missed opportunity of the movie tbh fam. They reminded me of two college guys who happen upon each other in the library while studying for finals. They help each other out and became best friends for no real reason but it works

this, the bromance would have been fantastic

Remove Snoke, Kylo, Luke, Rey, maybe Maz, and the Starkiller.

Make Finn and Poe the leads, with Finn acting less like a fucking retard, and make Phasma the main antag.

Set the movie about the Resistance fighting the insurgent FO.

If people demand lightsabers, cut Luke back in as a successful master who covertly sends Rey (his protege, not abandoned on an ass-backwards planet) to covertly aid the Resistance, then you can still force your shitty love story.

Bam, I just made your movie far more logically consistent and WAY less retarded, while making it something actually fun to watch.

Abrams openly admitted that Finn was just the token black guy.
