Why do people like this character? His entire arc happens off-screen. One scene he's terrfied of blood, the next he's killing his former comrades like it's nothing. It's a violation of a "show don't tell" rule in its most obvious form. Also he's got pretty fucking sick fighting skills for a plumber or whoever he was supposed to be.

They don’t

The correct way to do Finn would to make him object to fighting until the end. In the the fighter escape he shouldn't shoot and so they get shot down because he's a coward. He thinks poe dies and now thinks he's responsible for his death as well as the massacres. Then he finds Rey and he's like no I'm not fighting and she has to outrun and outmanuever the tie fighters instead of shooting them down until the hyperspace jump is ready. Then when Finn meets han Han should give him a blaster and finns like no I'm not that person anymore. On takodana Finn shouldn't fight either, he should use the lightsaber defensively and be running from troopers until he gets cornered by tr-8r and gets his ads whooped until Jan saves his life and gives him a talking to about how it's kill or be killed. Then when han dies Finn is fucking pissed because his mentor was killed and actually uses the lightsaber offensively against kylo. He of course still gets BTFO but it sets up his character for the next films and turns him from the cowardly lion into the brave new soldier for the resistance.

But instead we got a nigger who shouts WOOO so blacks will go see star wars

Quips

Compared to Ridley, Ford and Fisher he was alright. He also attempted to have an arc even if it was poorly written

...

no its fucking easier than that. finn wasnt kidnapped as a child. he jcomes from a messed up planet that has alot of problems. he just recently joins the first order because they make a promise that his family will be protected. he does his bsic training gets out in the field and wham killing civilians people dying. wtf is going on hits, and he realizes that this isnt w hat he wanted to sign up for. he escapes but then the first order has his family hostage. would made better character and why the resistance would be appealing to him.

That's a way too specific sideplot for a star wars movie. The other redo was better

Because he's the only one who trust in the force in spite of everything going wrong for him and being forced to be the comic relief just because he's a nigger.

Is that shopped?

Finn originally was supposed to be a badass but J. J made him the comic relief once he casted a black for the part. LMAO. And the guy has the face to pretend he cares about diversity.

nope, OP posted the fake

how? it can follow exactly what happened in the film. the only thing that needs to changed is some promise by leia to say we will get your family. that can be done off screen by some resistance commandos who found them or something and then its all solved finn is now with the resistance has validated reasons on why he left the first order. and then leave his family off in a corner and never talk about it again.

Finn came off as just this side of Eddie Anderson's Rochester desu

>Why do people like this character?

What people?

...

So many times I see people say he's the most likeable and developed character, then never elaborate.
Feels like they're bargaining just to find a positive quality in TFA.

The entire movie was him going "UHHHHHHH!!!" "ARRRRGHHHHHH!" "URRRAAAARRGHH!!!" and being scared shitless

I won't ever be paying another cent towards this ruined franchise

Journalists arent humans user.

He is a great actor with a diverse range that echos his very brave background.

The concept of a stormtrooper going rogue is a good one, but the execution was poor. they wanted him to be comic relief but did not think about how that character's history wouldn't allow him to become a funny guy who would chase pussy. He's two different characters shoved into one. In reality, he would have a better arc to becoming a jedi. Someone who doesn't want to fight learning the importance of protecting those he cares about. Better arc for a trilogy. But instead we have Rey who is uh...

what is her character again?

Why does he always get high praise?
Are critics too scared to call him out for his "hol ups!" and "Wooo"s?

Droid plz

>There's no nigs in Star Wars

Do people forget about Lando? One of the top 10 best characters

I liked him because he was a dork who fucked up a lot and I found it funny how he went around hitting people with a lightsaber as if it was a fucking club.
That said, he lasted too long against Kylo Ren.

They don't. Just another reason why the new Star Wars is just high budget fan-fiction.

>Do people forget about Lando? One of the top 10 best characters
We already have a nigger said Kathleen Kennedy
Billy Dee said they never called him

He's a fucking nigger scum, but at the end of the day he is also a better actor than Daisey 'BLACKED' Ridley or whatever the fuck her name i.
