He would have stopped the mini-death star from destroying the wall and potentially eradicating the resistance. Finn would have learned to stop running and to self sacrifice for a worthy cause, to finally stand up for something you believe in
And by stopping him from doing that, she doomed the resistance to death. They only survived because we needed a retarded scene with Luke Skywalker because the writers forgot to give him something to do in the movie
Except there’s absolutely no guarantee it would’ve worked. As a matter of fact, if you look at the timing, he would’ve been shot before reaching the laser.
Poe told the team they just needed to get closer, but when he saw the air speeders getting destroyed he said they needed to retreat. But, again, in lame writing Finn doesn’t get shot at again and is a mere second away from destroying the laser. Everything in these movies explodes anyway, so why wouldn’t it have worked?
Then afterward, Finn is able to drag chubby asian chick like 10 miles back to the base with a gigantic hole in the wall.
Also missing: character development and arcs, a competent compelling story
But I guess we need Finn around to say such funny lines like “let’s go chrome dome,” “rebel scum,” and constantly ask for Rey “Rey…where’s Rey? I have to find Rey. Rey needs to find me” Useless twat
Oh yeah, I definitely would not turn Rose down. She’s (fortunately) not rail-thin… but she’s also not sloppy Gabby Siddebe-caliber fat either.
One more nitpick to continue beating a dead horse here… the beginning:
[spoiler=]it is a bit silly that they didn’t just immediately blast Poe’s little ship into nothing when he was in front of the Dreadnaught…but I realize they apparently were desperate to wedge the “incoming call for General Hux” humor on that part. It was the first thing in the film where I was like “ehhhh… ok I’ll let that slide though” Really… the more I think of that, the more it comes off like it would’ve been a scene in Spaceballs.[/spoiler]
He would have not destroyed the laser. His speeder was being torn apart and the laser fired when he got close. Also there was no guarantee what they planned to do would even work. Finn already learned to stop running and fight for a cause when he fought Phasma in the Supremacy. It’s what motivated his suicide run on the speeder.
You can’t change dodgers2213’s script. In his eyes, he would have written, directed, and produced a better Star Wars movie. In his script, the laser is destroyed. Don’t change his script or he’ll retaliate with another post. :bawling:
There’s so much shit in this movie not guaranteed to have worked, but did, and out of all of them Finn destroying the laser is totally not possible or questionable? Dropping the fact for a second it would have been a redeeming act of selflessness for his selfish character, THIS WAS TOO FAR FETCHED for you?
was it guaranteed Poe’s one X-Wing was not going to be immediately met with a thousand tie fighters on approach to the super star destroyer?
was it guaranteed Poe would be too fast and too close to NOT be annihilated by the shit load of surface guns that are BY DESIGN to destroy small fighters in defense?
was it guaranteed that, even after destroying the cannons, the bombing squad would be successful when a fighter squadron were super effective against their zero shielding and glass armor anyway?
was it guaranteed that the fleet of star destroyers and supreme star destroyer could not catch up to the rebel ships when the opening sequence of the original Star Wars is a Star Destroyer disabling a very small rebel corvette? or in Empire Strikes Back when the fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy, the Millennium Falcon, needed to enter an asteroid field to avoid Star Destroyers and Darth Vader’s Executor flagship?
was it guaranteed some star destroyers wouldn’t just light speed ahead and intercept?
was it guaranteed the purple haired chicks light speed kamikaze would destroy…not just the supreme star destroyer but fucking 10 or 12 other smaller star destroyers too? what the fuck…
was it guaranteed anybody in the Resistance was going to pick up on Luke’s “stalling” tactic when he didn’t bother to fucking mention it to anyone at all…
1 damaged Tie Fighter destroys 3-4 bombers, 1 bomber is enough to destroy one dreadnought, 1 rebel cruiser wrecks a fleet and dreadnought… Finn cannot destroy the laser cannon… Lol
come the fuck on bro, the movie is bullshit
This Star Wars was pretty much millennials downloading apps and becoming bad ass jedi’s and sith lords. Also, Finn’s character is completely stupid, he was overacting some scenes that made it look forced and dumb.
Is this film worse than that trash George Lucas put together (Episode 1,2,3)? No. This is Star Wars for millennials-diversity, inclusion, and women leading the cast. It’s some new age shit. In the next one, I calling it now their going to put some sexual harassment shit in there.
Here’s some shit I didn’t even think about until it was pointed out to me:
Why is every man in this film either completely incompetent, cowardly, a failure, or some combination of them all? The only male that wasn’t is Ghost Yoda, and his failures led to the Empire and Vader to begin with.
None of the female characters make any mistakes, and are constantly pointing out the flaws of the male cast.
The more I think about this movie, the more annoyed I get…
