Presumably, more shuckin' and jivin'. I wouldn't be surprised if Rose becomes his bumbling f*ck buddy. Rose is not in the leaked script, which is one point in favor of it being fake.

Interesting. Can you give an example or two on how Finn's made an even bigger joke than in TFA? The whole casino sequence is just embarrassing. Oh yeah. I remember hearing there was going to be a casino scene. What happens to Finn according to that script?

He's the butt of jokes, doesn't do anything of consequence, and his dialogue is akin to something out of a poor sitcom. At least in TFA he got to hit Kylo with a lightsaber once.

Finn only landed that hit, which didn't even injure Kylo Ren btw, because Abrams was rehashing that moment from ESB when Luke stung Vader on his shoulder - before getting his ass kicked. Meanwhile, Rey rehashed Luke from ROTJ when he closed his eyes before opening up a can of whup-ass.

They wouldn't even let Finn beat that Stormtrooper with that lightsaber repellent thing, so I shoulda known better. Maybe when they rewrote TLJ, they decided to let Finn do something, anything, worth writing home about. He's got the potential to have the second best arc in the sequels, and they need to let him show it.

Finn was trained his whole life to be a soldier. He ended up being portrayed as a bumbling comic relief sidekick who regularly lost fights and needed saving. Why would he suddenly improve in overall competency simply by changing sides or being in the sequel?

They can claim Stormtroopers have blocks on their minds to keep them subservient, and that makes them less than competent fighters. The healing tube Finn is now in can remove that block, and now he can live up to his potential. I dunno, something like that. If I was in charge, I'd make him a Jedi, because that would explain him better than anything.

I don't see the logic in wasting time and resources going throughout the galaxy kidnapping babies, raising, brainwashing and training them for 18+ years... only to have them die 5 minutes or less in battle. -_- At least a battle droid army could be created within a few hours. Eh. It's not impossible to say Finn was Force sensitive, which could make the difference in him not taking to his brainwashing, but they never showed him struggling with it. He always behaved like a normal person. They also made sure to have Finn unconscious when Rey left to meet Luke. Otherwise, you know his puppy dog ass would've gone with her. Man, I can't wait to see how this mess of a character will unfold! xD

If anything. If Fin wakes up from his coma & becomes this A$$ kicking machine type totally different from his bumbling self in TFA it just means RJ created another mystery box. I'd rather Finn b the bumbling sidekick 2 Rose (KMT) in TLJ because of consistency.
Especially since I'm sure he will b told that "Rey is safe w/ Luke". There's no need 2 turn him into a brave warrior type.

Can someone please write a quick synopsis of the leaked script? I'm very curious as to what it contained. Any details at all would be great!
Two specific questions: Is Rey's parentage revealed? And do Ackbar, Nien Nunb, 3PO and R2 have bigger roles than TFA?

I hope I'm wrong, but Denis Lawson and Billy Dee being at celebration is making me re-think my position on the leaked script.... It's not real, Jan. I read it, enthusiastically, and hoped that it was. There are just too many actual details and plot points that were not even mentioned in the "leaked script" I honestly believe it was written and leaked by Rian Johnson himself, with the correct title, just to mess with people.

( SADLY IT DOES NOT MATCH UP WITH THE "REAL" LEAKS SO FAR ) Two specific questions: Is Rey's parentage revealed? ( YES ) And do Ackbar, Nien Nunb, 3PO and R2 have bigger roles than TFA? ( NO )

Thanks, Mr. Ackbar! So do you think the script is fake then? I do, yes. I guess it is "possible" that it was a "first draft", especially since it appears to have been written in RJ's "style" But it is not what was filmed.
