Dat makes no sense! Why would Disney be afraid to make one character an independent bad*$$ (Finn), but not another (Rey)?

I dunno, best guess being that having both leads be stoic baddasses would get more complaints. Plus, Rey is the actual protagonist of these movies. Serves better to have a contract/foil.

No-sa. People hated Jar Jar bein da tag-along to QuiGon and little Ani.

Da reasons for da Rey and Finn characters bein da way dat thems are is cuz they both be template Disney characters.

Just like the OT characters were archetypes too, then. It's just that Luke was the least interesting out of all of them, which the ST wants to avoid.

Dat be yousen opinion of Luke Skywalker. Obviously an overwhelming number of people disagree with yousa. Da captain included.

Da OT characters fit far less into archetypal molds than Disney characters do. Dats one of da reasons audiences found thems so original and charismatic. And what level of archetype thems do have is native to SW. Not shoehorned in from Disney or some other franchise.
