Finn -- I'll admit I was HOPING he was a little stronger but he still came across well. In my opinion I think he is probably force sensitive but will develop later. He sensed good and bad when he got into real action for the first time and just left the FIRST ORDER like that -- clearly he had a sense of being on a mission to do right. I think Maz looking at him first and saying she could tell he wanted to run was similar to Yoda telling Luke you will be (afraid). He still handled the light saber well for someone who doesn't even know who he is. I also don't think it's an accident she gave him the light saber to use.
Rey - I'm not yet convinced she's Luke's daughter, even though I realize it's possible. Watching that flashback scene she had, there was a quick snippet of a little girl being whisked off. My thought process told me her parents may have been force users in Luke's camp who were killed, and it was known that this girl was very strong in the force and hidden. Maybe the "old ally" at the beginning who had the map to Luke was safeguarding her on Jakku, almost like how Obi Wan did Luke -- from a far. Kylo knew this person, commenting on how old he looked. If she was Luke's daughter I would think Leia would know about her, and to me she didn't -- but knew she was somehow very strong in the force.
Kylo Ren -- a dope villain. He is the psycho whiny kid that throws crazy tantrums and doesn't know what to do with himself or the power he has. The voice with the mask was absolutely perfect. He's the 'imperfect' villain still learning.
Rey/Finn -- I think their backstories are going to be crazy. Finn didn't know his parents and was whisked away at a young age in the First Order, not knowing who he was at all. Yet he knew he had a purpose -- he will find himself as the movies go along. Rey's backstory is clearly key.
RIP Han Solo! I knew Chewy went off -- but man, seeing Han die I'd have thought Chewy would have went even more buckwild then he did. I could have done without so much Leia. Poe is great. Maz Kanata is going to be a key element to bridging the gap from the old generation. Still figuring Snoke out. A lot to chew on, but overall, very happy with it.
