Fandom Friday: Random Fandom Thoughts

It's Fandom Friday, what's everyone talking about? Here are a few things I've been thinking of:

- I still think Robbie Reyes a.k.a. Ghost Rider played by Gabriel Luna during the fourth season of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. was so good that I wish he had a movie. No offense to the Ghost Rider movies which starred Nicolas Cage as Johnathon "Johnny" Blaze but Robbie was so unforgettable and his Ghost Rider was absolutely amazing. It just feels like a waste that his character didn't make it into the MCU with a movie.

Finn and Poe Dameron: The Wasted Potential of a Star Wars Love Story

I don't know why Disney is so afraid to show a romantic relationship between Star Wars characters Finn and Poe Dameron and as Oscar Isaac (who plays Poe) said it seems like a "natural progression" between these two characters. Director J.J. Abrams recently stated that there is no romance between Finn and Poe but I have to ask, why not? Especially since the characters have great chemistry and the actors John Boyega and Oscar Isaac both support the idea of their characters being in a relationship.

Question of the Day: Do You Think Finn and Poe Dameron Should Have a Star Wars Movie or TV Series?

These two pictures from the upcoming Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker movie makes me wish that Finn and Poe Dameron had their own spin-off movie or TV series. Who wouldn't want to see the space adventures of Finn and Poe? I know I would. I also think it would be cool if Chewbacca and Rose Tico made guest appearances joining the duo in a few of their adventures as well.

I could see a series focusing on Poe and Finn traveling throughout space helping people and fighting against The First Order and also developing a relationship between these two. A series would give the writers more time to expand on the easy and magnetic chemistry between Finn and Poe into a compelling romance.

I always found it fascinating that some Star Wars fans called Finn a coward and a traitor when as a stormtrooper he left The First Order. To me, I consider that to be unbelievably brave that he chose to break free from the brainwashing of the oppressive and hateful regime that he was a part of. Leaving made it possible for Finn to find out who and what he was capable of as well as become a hero. Meanwhile, I find Poe to also be very brave but he's rather impulsive which can lead him to act without thinking and cause huge mistakes. I love that he truly believes in fighting injustice and helping people.

Finn and Poe are such interesting characters and I think if they had a movie or TV series they would get the screen time they deserved and along with more time to explore their story.

Non-Canon Couples Week: Day #1: Finn and Poe Dameron

It's been three years since I posted my first Non-Canon Couples Week and since I have so many favorites I wanted to post some more. I'm starting the first day with one of my favorite Star Wars non-canon couples: Finn and Poe Dameron.

I have been rooting for Finn and Poe to be a couple since the moment they met in The Force Awakens when Finn (or FN-2187) deserted The First Order to help Poe. However, even more so when they reunited at the Resistance Base because at that point Finn thought Poe was dead. So, he was definitely shocked to find the pilot still alive and not to mention he got to keep Poe's jacket after Poe delivered the iconic line "keep it, it suits you". It's hard to overlook the flirty vibe between them especially with Poe biting his lip while stared at Finn.

Not since Princess Leia and Han Solo in the original Star Wars trilogy have I been rooting for two characters to be in a relationship. Poe and Finn have such a wonderful chemistry that they could have had an equally iconic and amazing love story if given the chance.

As much as I would love for Disney to make FinnPoe cannon, I doubt it will happen because they would have acknowledged or confirmed it in The Last Jedi. So, unless they plan on surprising us FinnPoe fans with something in The Rise of Skywalker, it's most likely won't happen.

Even if it doesn't happen, I don't need it to be official to still be a fan of this would-be couple.
