The Disney Trilogy would be so much better if Po was killed off in the opening scenes of TFA as they originally planned.
Poe is a great character so I disagree. However I didn’t call myself SAVEPOE so you probably feel stronger about it than I do.
Poe is a great character, but he’s not the main character. Finn is. At least Finn was supposed to be the main character.
The entire concept of Po was added to the opening crawl and film so he would die. He needs to die so that Finn is in debt to a hero of the Resistance. Po dies so that Finn can live; Finn in turn picks up the leather jacket and BB-8 and will become a hero himself. That’s the setup for the entire trilogy.
But Oscar Isaac is charismatic and swoonworthy, so Di$ney decided to keep him despite the reasons why he was supposed to die. This kills Finn’s character in the process.
