I was so excited to see Rey become a Jedi and save the day. When TFA came out, people were complaining that it was a rehash of OT, but I just realized as we talked about RotJ that I absolutely wanted that: a big "nobody to hero" story, but with Rey as the protagonist. Instead it felt like I'm getting everything else but that, including a freaking love story.
Honestly, if it really had been an OT rehash with Rey, Poe and Finn in the place of Luke, Leia and Han, I think it would have made for a better story. With Rey and Finn as the "siblings" and a Poe/Finn romance, or even no romance at all.
