🤣 Oh, honey, John Boyega is STILL talking about Disney’s Star Wars sequel trilogy? Bless his heart. Someone get this man a hug and a new script, stat! 🙄
The guy who played Finn, the stormtrooper-turned-rebel (more like stormtrooper-turned-forgettable-sidekick, am I right? 😂) in The Force Awakens, The Last Jedi, and The Rise of Skywalker (or as I like to call them, The Snoozefest Awakens, The Last Okay-ish, and The Rise of…Wait, What Happened Again? 🤔), is still whining about his character arc and how some (definitely not all, calm down snowflakes ❄️) fans were mean to him. Boo-hoo! 😭
Apparently, at Supercon Florida (because that’s where all the serious Star Wars discussions happen, right? 🙄), he revealed all the changes he would have made if he was a producer. Oh, honey, if frogs had wings, they wouldn’t bump their butts when they hop! 🐸
His big idea? Don’t kill off Luke, Han, and Leia. Groundbreaking stuff, truly. 🤯
“If I was a producer, it would be MAD!” he said. “We’re not getting rid of Han Solo, Luke Skywalker… we’re going to FULFILL their legacy!” Yeah, because dragging them out for nostalgia bait is totally fulfilling. 🙄 And fulfilling for you with more screen time? 🤔
He wants more “struggle” for the characters and to bring in lore from Force Unleashed. Oh, you mean the video game that’s about as canon as my grandma’s fan fiction? 👵✍️ Sure, why not? Let’s just throw everything at the wall and see what sticks. 🍝
“Our new characters won’t be [overpowered]!” he declared. “They won’t just grab stuff and know what to do with it!” Except Rey did, but who’s counting? 🤷♀️ He also said Luke wouldn’t be “disappearing on a rock.” Oh, you mean the most talked about and memed to death scene? 😂 NOOOO! Give those characters way more! More screen time for Finn maybe? 😉
In August, at Fan Expo Boston (another bastion of serious Star Wars discussion, naturally), he said he thought Finn would be a Jedi. Oh, honey, did you even watch the movies? 😂 I thought they would Obi-Wan and Darth Vader us a bit. Oh, you mean be a major character with his own story? Never gonna happen with you! 🤣
And then there’s the whole “racist backlash” thing. 🙄 Yes, some people were awful, and that’s never okay. But let’s not pretend that’s the only reason some people didn’t like Finn. Some folks just didn’t like the character, period. 🤷♂️
In 2020, he told British GQ that Disney gave “all the nuance” to Rey and Kylo Ren. 🙄 Boo-hoo. Maybe if Finn was more than just a screaming sidekick, he would’ve gotten some nuance too? Just saying. 🤷♀️
In 2025, he said Star Wars is “so white that a Black person existing in [it] was something.” Oh, come on! Lando Calrissian wants a word! 😠 And Mace Windu is somewhere throwing shade with his purple lightsaber. 💜
But hey, he’s still a big fan of the franchise despite the way he was treated. 🙄 Sure, Jan. 🙄
And the next Star Wars movie is The Mandalorian and Grogu, because that’s what everyone really cares about anyway. 😉 Sorry, Finn! 👋
Finn McFrame, celebrated satirical mastermind and self-proclaimed “Emperor of Irony,” started his illustrious career as a cinematographer, where his expertise in capturing every single frame of a squirrel stealing a baguette earned him accolades at obscure film festivals.
Born in the glamorous town of Boring, Oregon, Finn grew up with dreams of being a Hollywood director until he realized that satire, not cinema, was his true calling—or at least the one that let him sleep until noon.
Finn McFrame: changing the world, one satirical lens flare at a time.
