When I heard about Rey, I assumed her character would be something like this: an orphan girl who has grown up on a cutthroat world becomes a hardened and jaded loner. Bitter. Emotionally closed off.

I assumed that fate would throw her together with Finn, who would be in a similar place vis-à-vis fascist deprogramming. They'd have to learn to trust each other and yadda yadda yadda.

Instead, we don't really get a story. Maybe my idea was a little trite, but at least it was something.
