Surprised/glad to see some people going back on their insulting remarks. In the months/weeks leading up to the release it became more and more obvious he was going to be great. He was very charismatic and a solid actor.

I was more worried about Daisy Ridley honestly. And while the predictions here that she was going to be too "perfect" and an overly strong independent woman were true she still did a great job and made Rey a good character.

My problem with Finn boils down to 2 things:

-His sole purpose is to be the foil to Rey; be a more inexperienced Han Solo to the inexperienced gender-swap Skywalker. I can tell he's gonna be the smuggler character. Finn reminds me of the sort of characters you see on nickelodeon: the bumbling, awkward idiot who nonetheless gets his way via luck or some hidden area of expertise. That isn't much of a bugbear if not for the second thing...

-Boyega's acting leaves a lot to be desired. The reason Han works is because Ford has enough charisma to make a sweet-talking rouge believable and in some respects admirable. Boyega's only lines that weren't delivered stammering and him screaming were in the cantina and when he was giving the plans for the deathstar.
>>

What was so great about Poe? He had like ten mins of screen time, half of which was him in an x-wing cockpit whooping about killing stuff and "we've got a lot of company!"

Kylo Ren was the best part about the movie even though many people don't want to admit it.
>>
>>63921749
He did alright.
The writing for his character was ridicolous. Sanitation worker just so happens to know the technical details of the single most important space station of the base, to a degree that he can tell the resistance what systems are failable.

At least he didn't piss me off like Rey. Better pilot than Han Solo and Lando, without ever having left the planet. Can casually fix anything and everything, and figures out tech bypasses to all systems she comes in contact with. Doesn't even know where the safety is on a blaster, but is also a better shot than Han fucking Solo, hitting every shot she takes that's shown. Fights great with a Lightsaber with 0 training, can use the force like it's nothing, despite any training she might have had having been done before she was circa 4 years old, and let's not forget the fact that she's the "strong female lead" while she runs away from all responsibility, while Leia fucking took charge of every single situation she found herself in, never collapsed under pressure, chose to aid the Rebel alliance no matter the danger, talked back to the most powerful people in the galaxy, and didn't need special snowflake Mega Force powers to resist torture, from a much more experienced and well equipped interrogator.

>>63923817
Oh no no. See the control station came later. Before then, he gave the Resistance exactly what they need to blow up, in order to destabalize the planet.
You'd think if such a location existed, it wouldn't be common knowledge for sanitation workers.
Why would he even recognize the words they were speaking? A few scenes earlier, he didn't even know what basic starship parts are, and needed BB-8 to help him figure out what Rey was directly pointing at.

Can we all agree that he was great as Finn in Star Wars? It's clear now that casting a black male by Disney was a red herring designed to hide the real agenda of pushing feminist ideals ahead in main stream culture, which in retrospect was a brilliant play by Disney. Boyega doesn't deserve the hate he gets here and he was a terrific supporting character. The Finn and Poe chemistry was one of the highlights of the film.

Sorry based Boyega
>>
>>63921749
>we

>>63924251
No. He wasn't good. Pretty much everybody had poor performances save for Poe's actor and he was hardly in the film.
>>
>>63924316
Nah mang. Everybody was great. The problem stemmed from poor writing for a lot of characters not their performances.
>>
>>63921749
I thought he'd be a "hip hop guy" and now I feel bad
>>
>>63923599

he didn't know much about the base. this is explicitly stated in the film.

also, rey missed the first shot she took once she took the safety off.

did you actually see the movie?
>>
>>63924548
I did.
His plan just went as far as getting on the base, to save Rey, and when he reveals that to Han, that's when he admits he was a sanitation worker.

What you don't seem to get, is that no amount of "well, I don't really know much about the base" hand waving will solve the fact that for some reason, he still knew the technical layout of the base, despite the fact that as I said before >>63923908 he didn't even have a clue about basic space ship parts, didn't know how to operate a tie fighter, and literally the only thing he seemed to be trained in, is how to shoot straight, and how to clean up.

Him knowing what they are looking for, from just a few words of "we need to find some sort of device that does this", is like the janitor in Washington being able to tell you where the Pentagon's bunker entrance is, because let's not forget that he was a santitation worker on a fucking planet.
Either this is the most bullshit deus-ex-machina explanation that he just so happened to be a sanitation worker exactly at the part of the death star they needed to find, or he knew the entire lay out of the station despite it being obvious from his cluelessness that stormtrooper training is incredibly limited.
>>
>>63924483
>and now I feel bad
Do you want him to fuck and impregnate your mother now?
>>
>>63924795
No. The equivalent would be if a custodian at the Pentagon knew where the Pentagon's security office was. Which is completely reasonable.
>>
>>63922942
is that mundy?
>>
he was jar jar done right

really enjoyed his performance

sorry based Boyega
>>
>>63924872
I want you to really think about that statement.
He could work on that space station for a thousand years, cleaning a different corridor every day, and still not have visited every corridor. It's a bloody planet.
Why would a custodian know where the security office is in the Pentagon?
-He probably went by it a thousand times while working there
-He probably needs to check in there every now and again
-People might ask him for directions once they're in the pentagon, so it's useful to know

Let's see if those reasons hold with a "sanitation worker" on the Starkiller Base.
-He's probably working at least a couple hundred miles away from it, so it's not like he keeps walking through that part of the station, unless he works exactly there. Like you know, a random janitor from Washington MIGHT work at the Pentagon, but it's unlikely
-It's an engineering section. What reason would a random sanitation worker have to keep visiting it? He has no technical know-how, and it isn't like a registry/training facility.
-Why would people ask him for directions regarding it, unless he's already working in it? If he works anywhere else on the Starkiller base, it would be like someone asking a janitor in New York, which way Hong Kong is, at which point, you probably aren't going to ask a janitor.

Give me one reason why Finn should know where it is. One reason, why a sanitation worker who isn't educated in as much as how Tie-Fighter turrets work, or what basic starship parts are, should have been taught the exact layout of the Starkiller Base.
>>
>>63921749
Sorry based Boyega.
>>
>>63925170
Because sanitation workers aren't generally localized, so it's reasonable to assume he had a general knowledge of the whole base? There's also the scene where he kidnapped his boss- she could have told him what he needed to know.
>>
>>63924817
God damn, you racists have such extreme mindsets
>>

I'm still not convinced that the entire planet was the whole base. It looks to me like it was pretty centralized on the planet. Even then I agree it might be a stretch that he knew where it was. That plot in general though was fucking retarded. Why would the First Order make a bigger exhaust pipe leading to their central weakness? Did they not learn from the first 2 times?
>>
>>63922903
That would have been a great bit of cross pollination, good call.

>>63925372
>Sanitation workers aren't localized
You're telling me the First Order actually puts its janitors on what must effectively amount to public transport, sends them all over the planet sized base they've created, and then has them always work a different location?
Do you seriously think this is a thing?
Is that you how imagine the infrastructure of this base works?
Are you telling me, that on this planet sized base, there is like one barracks, and then they just send sanitation workers randomly to every other part of the planet?

Putting aside the fact that this is the kind of bullshit that would make an interesting dystopian story about how fucking inoperable and claustrophobic a system like this:
That's ridiculous.


>>63925493
You've got a point there. I wouldn't be surprised if it's revealed that the base was only the main, wide trench in the middle, but even that is colossal.
Let's not forget that just the cannon was the size of the Death Star.

Yeah I agree. The only reason I could maybe justify that plot point in my head is in the first scene we see Finn going into battle with his fellow storm troopers. One could assume that even cannon fodder grunts like Finn would be briefed on the basic designs of the base. Probably similar to how military personal will get briefed on basic things. That is a stretch though.
>>
>>63921941
i mean, it's a crudely expressed sentiment, but i see valid points there

making jesus white and all the semites white is inaccurate, but it still happens. i would complain if they made shakespeare black too, and i hope boyega would.

there is still a lack of lead female roles - though i blame this on the public since faggots will complain if a woman gets fucked up on tv - i think about the mads - craig ball torture scene in casino royal and if that were a woman how the film would have been boycotted

he again has a point about how even in high fantasy settings we don't see multiracial environments. that said, i don't mind when it's a setting based off medieval europe, where xenophobia and racism are the dominant attitudes.

last one, ok yeah i can't defend him this time. i would have hoped he's against shoehorning more ethnic minority characters in. it's a delicate topic though. i think that master of none episode where aziz and the other indian character are going for the same one-of-three role and how they can't both get it because then it'll be 'an indian show'

I like him.

Two of his lines felt like he just came from a young science fiction movie though (when he asked Rey about the ship malfunctioning and his shock when Poe told him he was going back to Jakku).

They just felt really forced and unnatural. But since he is doing an American accent I'll give him some leeway on that as well.

Overall, I ain't mad, desu senpai.

he's both. Finn is what happens when you make some dork force sensitive.

-resisted brainwashing
-was able to hold his own against Kylo with a lightsaber
-was able to blast fighters out of the sky with no training
-why Kylo gave him that funny look after the village massacre

Also, rewatch that lightsaber fight with Kylo again. who else held a lightsaber the way Finn does? Remind you of another melonin enriched gentlemen?

Rey was so skilled, that it makes no sense whatsoever that she wouldn't be an important engineer in that junkyard, and don't fucking tell me that at a place where there exist no two people of the same gender and race, they still find a way to pick on the poor defenceless white woman specifically

Disney execs clearly have some kind of dumbed-down GRRM-like plan for the plot of the whole series.

Hence characters like Poe and Phasma being introduced in the first movie and doing almost literally nothing. J J Abrams wouldn't even have thought of inventing characters and doing nothing with them, it takes valuable time away from incoherent action.
