What he will say about the movie is that Finn is on a journey, much like the origin stories of gods and superheroes from other mythologies. “All the characters we love — Batman, Spider-Man — never ever start off as those guys,” Boyega says in his rich British accent.

CNET interview

Yeah. And on the flip side of that there's a whole generation of kids for whom this is gonna be their first Star Wars movie.

Absolutely.

The lead is being played by a black man wielding a lightsaber. Their first Jedi, like their first president, is black. Is that a responsibility you thought of before going into it?

No. (Pauses.) I am 23, so I don't have information about the way the world works when it comes to different mentalities. What I'm being exposed to now is new. I'm not the ordinary when it comes to this stuff. To me, going into a Star Wars film, having a responsibility to the world — I feel like if I thought about that my audition would not have been great. I would have been crying and making speeches halfway through the audition. For me, I went in as an actor. That has always been the main fixation. Whatever inspiration anyone draws from that is absolutely fantastic. It's always good to feel like you're involved in anything positive. In terms of my approach to Star Wars the main fixation to me was the role, the story and making sure Star Wars is honored in a very respectable way.

its getting closer, the theaters are going to be so packed

 

[Rapmastermind]

Very happy more and more promos are showing John as clearly the Lead New Jedi. He has held the lightsaber in all the promo posters and materials thus far. As for Luke's absence in the Promo is only going to hype up his character's appearnce once the movie opens.

somewhat off topic, but i've been watching the clone wars cgi show. Show is better than most of the prequel trilogy. especially episode 1 and 2. plus it makes parts of 3 more cause you get to know more of the jedi warriors and see more of obi and anakin.

have you watched rebels?

only like a episode or two. I'll do it fully once i finish Clone Wars.

When I rewatched ep. 3 after the clone wars and saw Plo Koon get merked

The animated prequels are definitely better than the movies

Check out the Tartakovsky series from 2003 as well

Yeah I've heard folks say that they like the "Clone Wars" series so much, it made them like the prequel trilogy more than the original trilogy.

I still haven't watched the "Clone Wars" show, but I loved the Tartakovsky series from 2003.

thats why i loved the cartoon it filled in so much gaps, even more in depth how in the later seasons how anakin turned to the dark side
