He was a fun side character in TFA, but he did not need to be the second main character in TLJ.

Gosh Im pissed at how they handled Finn while dumbass Poe gets elevated to Neo StarLord levels >_>

I wouldn't be surprised if we get a Poe and Finn spinoff movie or a show on Disney +.

I mean, I actually do like their chemistry at the beginning of TFA, but after that Poe should have been relegated to Porkins status.

Remember how it was established Rey and Poe can't see eye to eye and fight over trivial stuff all the time?

Neither do I and neither does the movie past the first 5 minutes

Imagine if they tried to push Wedge Antilles as a major character rather than the side character that he and Poe deserve.

I know you are joking, but John Boyega was in an interview and gave off the impression that he thought his role was the "token black guy" role

"You know, as a black person, you're going to feel a big type of weight. You had nothing to do with Rey and Kylo... [and] the story just wasn't here for me, with Finn and Rose."

poe's arc in TLJ at least makes sense

finn's character feels entirely superfluous after TFA

Was joking about him being racist but I do consider him 100% irrelevant in TLJ, which was one of many disappointments I had with that movie. I really liked Finn's arc in TFA and was excited to see where he went next

Because like Jesse Pinkman he was supposed to die early in the story but the actor was so good the director was convinced to keep him around but unlike Breaking Bad this trilogy didnt have very good writers.

Not hating; I like the ST and expect to enjoy TROS but thats a pretty fair summary nonetheless, I think.
