What would've happened had the stormtrooper Finn been the Main Character and the Jedi during the Sequels? How would this effect the events of the Sequels and what would change in the story of the Sequels and the story of Rey?

Smh. Hate after hate. Toxicity after toxicity. It is honestly depressing about the lack of views on a solid Sequel Rewrite - that is beyond frustrating, because people see “Sequel” and decide it’s bad even though they know what Pente normally make and which CREATOR this is. That right there is some absolute bs. As someone who WATCHED all of Pente's videos, you should give a video a chance instead of PRESUMING you would hate it because it has Sequel Trilogy characters and stop complaining and enjoy the video like wtf man. We should be glad that we are getting anything instead of nothing at all.

[@jeraldhall4603]

Whether you were referring to my comment below or not I have to take an "L" because I almost let my hate for the Disquel keep me from watching this great story, but I would also point out I called myself out on it in my own comment and did compliment the story.

[@symphony_in_152mm2]

you know, I rather enjoy sequel fan writing. More often than not, it provides a means through which I can have a more satisfying story than what disney's trilogy ever gave us.

[@Spartan135]

blame disney for this

[@Starcat5]

@@Spartan135 I blame not having a single Head Writer/Director to helm all three projects. Allowing the team for Episode 8 to kill off the Big Bad sent the team for Episode 9 into Panic Mode and grasping at straws. We all know the infamous line by now. I am not going to repeat it.

[@_Korinzu]

I can get behind this. We all thought it was going to be finn anyway when the trailers first came out, and from a story perspective it makes sense. Storm trooper can't follow imperial rule any longer with the first order, leaves, but finds himself on the journey to becoming a Jedi to discover himself, his abilities and redeem himself if to no one else, to himself for his past actions as a trooper.

[@orainefoster8316]

Finn could've arguably been one of the best SW characters period if they just told his story correctly. But no, they made him from a character with the most potential to a shell of himself by the end of it.

[@_Korinzu]

@@orainefoster8316 agreed. All the ground work was there with his known origins, just add in some force sensitivity and that's it, he doesn't need to be a Skywalker or a palpatine to be important.

[@Xo-3130]

@@orainefoster8316 Lucas films under Disney is more offend then not a disappointment. Say what you will about George Lucas and the weirdest parts of Star Wars Legends but Disney had decades to look through to find what worked or not and what they capped off their film trilogy with was a dumber Dark Empire

[@dragoonmaster7368]

It's actually canon that Finn is force sensitive, from what I've read anyways.

[@Godcomesfirst999]

[@axe4754]

When i first saw the trailer to the Force Awakens, I presumed that Finn was force sensitive. It feels like such a shame that Disney hyped him up to be an important character, however he was just a supporting character throughout the movies. Thanks for doing him justice.

[@pyrus0zero]

Fun fact: he is force sensitive and was supposed to get proper training under laia while Rey got training from Luke. But they decided to scrap that even though they already dropped hints. XD

What if jango lived and tried to reunite mandalore, marking them a third faction in the clone wars, like say he did everything up to the creation of the clone army (and would just come back to give more dna and get paid) he’d have boba and just focus on mandalore space It’d be interesting as he’s not as brutal as vizla or passive as Satine and he had a legit right to the throne as he was mandalore during the civil war he just quit after it was over

I'm loving these multi part stories. Honestly would love to see you make What if's that are basically mini trilogies. Keep up the great work.

[@Gpzeldafan10]

This is what we needed. So much was built with advertising Finn with a lightsaber and the fact he never actually became a Jedi in the sequels is just sad. I really wanted him to be a Jedi.

[@tweso1499]

This is definitely an improvement of what we’ve got!! Can’t wait for the next one!

[@jeraldhall4603]

I have to be honest, because of my distain for the Disquel I almost didn't watch this what if, but there are so many good stories on this channel that I decided to give it a watch and like. There are so many that could have done a better post Original Trilogy, Trilogy than what we got, and I would say that this story is among those that could have done better than what we got.

This is amazing! This was what I was visualizing while Rey being a rival and friend to Finn as 2 padawans under the guidance of luke skywalker!

[@warmachine9846]

Okay I'm going to get a little bit preachy. I haven't listened to this episode yet I just saw the title and I have to comment that Finn was the Jedi we were promised before the Baton switch and they gave us the amazing Wonder Rae so I can't wait to hear this episode

Thank you for showing much more love for Star Wars than Disney ever have, and may the Force be with you 💙...

That's EXACTLY what I wanted to see in the Disney trilogy, Finn the ex-stormtrooper becoming the Jedi Knight of this generation. But nope, Disney saw fit to give us Rey "Mary Sue", whiny Goth kid that wants to imitate Darth Vader and other characters I'd rather forget they ever existed.

😁 Love the video. What the sequels could have been. What if Finn was a Kenobi?

I think he'd be more realistic as a Windu. Mace, having survived his fall went into hiding as the Empire rose and had a child with a woman he'd met.

You have the right Idea, Id love to see Jedi Finn. But you kind of need Rey. I mean sure Finn could finally get a last name but there are some things that just wouldn't feel right if Finn was THE Jedi of the story instead of A Jedi. I still gave a thumbs up tho. And I watched all your videos! Im sorry that people hate on you for no reason :(.

Also this is only part one so maybe I need to wait.

I think a good story idea would be what if shocked he trained Anakin fell in love with Paris coffee and trained another Padawan after Asoka left Because the story might change with different elements Mixtown and you could make it into a two-parter because I am positive they would be at least five hours of material coming from your mind

Poe made the right call in the movie. That dreadnought needed to be destroyed no matter what. He was also following the plan given to him to destroy it. If high command really did want to order a withdrawal they would have sent the order to the rest of the pilots after Poe refused to back down.

[@Mech299]

This is the first time I've remotely cared about the "Canon" plot of the ST, and I commend you, sir. Who knew that if you stopped hyperfocusing on Rey and everything she could do, and actually gave the characters that you're portraying the proper respect and intelligence that they're owed, it'd make for a more enjoyable and dynamic story. Especially when those characters are war veterans like those of the Resistance command and Luke. Seriously, there is so much behind the scenes commentary with Mark Hamil just getting absolutely spiritually destroyed by the choice to make Luke a sour, bitter old man that closed himself off from the Force. Mark himself said in interviews that he told "the director that shall not be named" that it wasn't in Luke's character to wallow in failure, but to acknowledge that he made a mistake, take some time to recalibrate and come back at it again. And that's just one of the most egregious examples. Giving the characters the respect that they're owed and letting them be intelligent, as well as respecting the lore of the world and using it, instead of tossing it aside makes for a much more enjoyable plot. There was too much mindless mimicry in the ST, which is, hilariously, a meta-commentary in this very video for those looking for it. "You will never be strong by immitating the successes of the past" is very applicable to the ST as well as Kylo. Good freaking job, Pente! I salute your creativity and knowledge, and your ability to write a damn good story!

I still remember watching the first of the new trilogy thinking that Finn should be the main character.
