Have you read the posts from these morons? The Internet is like a litmus test for humanity, whether it deserves to continue existing. Look to the heavens, my friend. That asteroid ought be arriving any minute, now.
 
It's frustrating that we keep hearing everyone has equal screen time but there are almost no spoilers about Finn, Poe, or Rose. Are the casino and the Phasma fight the only things Finn does? How exactly does Poe rebel? What else does Rose do besides take Finn to Canto Bight? There are so many questions but no one seems to have any info. Are their stories just not memorable at all?
 
The truth is the movie is 2.5 hours long. There is a lot going on in it. If someone is a Finn/Poe fan then they remember everything about them. If its other characters then they remember those things. When you see the film you will see what I mean. That is why spoilers help in that you are not really looking for answers and can go along for the ride and pick up other things. Rose and Finn may have kissed at some point. Someone else said they saw the film today and saw it happen at the end. If so, then OK. I am not 100% sure on that though.

Also the movie does not start where TFA ends. It back tracks somewhat and then we get to the Luke/Rey meeting.

But what about Chewie? Doesn't he have a bone to pick with Kylo? I'm surprised that he doesn't go after Kylo himself. Does Rey tell him to back off?
 
Well that's interesting. I'm with you, I live for spoilers because it helps me process as I watch. I got sick of getting sort of awe-struck in movies and then walking away unable to form an opinion because I hadn't sort of pre-processed a lot of information. I even tend to read the last chapters of books before I get into them. I super appreciate the spoilers, it just gets frustrating because I can't get hardly anything about Finn, Poe, and Rose. People don't seem to care about these characters and it's a ****ing shame. It really sounds like they got relegated to B-plot, Finn especially, and that more than anything is killing any will I had to watch the movie.

I think they wanted this to be Luke’s movie.

They mentioned that, I think in an interview Mark was saying Carrie's passing was so hard in part because it was supposed to be TFA was Han's movie, TLJ was his movie, and IX was supposed to be her movie, and they were all supposed to be sort of the guiding force of our new trio/quad. But then somehow Rian has no room for Lando when from everything we've heard, DJ just IS Lando, or very close to. I honestly want so much better for Finn and Poe and Rose but they're not really giving us a real trio, they're giving us Rey, the OT, and a bunch of b-plots. They've got AMAZING actors but they're wasting them for the sake of like three white people. With a universe that borrows so heavily from a variety of Asian cultures, it would have been nice if they could actually get with the 21st century and DO something with their more diverse cast.
 
I seen over on reddit with that spoilers claims and in the comments pawns name was mentioned more times then people talking about the person and that set of spoilers or leak.

BTW in episode 9 I'd like to see Yoda as a ghost training rey or Luke does a Kenobi and we get a Jedi who is not known existed.

Oh man this thread has made it all over creation. I even saw posts on tumblr trying to do long, drawn-out posts breaking down why the leaks were BS. It mostly boiled down to people not reading the whole thread and not being able to pick up on the jokes. It's... a nightmare, honestly. So many people don't want these leaks to be real and they are trying SO HARD to discredit them. It's sad what it's doing to some seriously die-hard fans.
 
Why do people care so much about Finn, Poe, Rose, etc? These are background, fairly boring one-dimensional characters. This is the Skywalker saga. Who cares about these other players? Luke friggin Skywalker is back in the mix and people want screen time wasted developing who?...Poe? Finn? Phasma? Why not the guy who fuels the X-wings? These are background characters. In a movie with Luke, Leia, Kylo, Rey, etc., screen time shouldn't be wasted on supporting cast any more than absolutely necessary.
 
I saw Rian is getting threats over all this from people who have not seen the movie.

I only intended to bullet point the main plot points not give away every minute detail that will take multiple viewings just to digest. Wow some of these people are really crazy.
