…are just irrational. For example…

49. Paige Tico. We’re supposed to believe that Rose’s less-annoying sister is a top 50 Star Wars character OF ALL TIME?!? Come on. She was great in her one and only sequence in the entire saga. Cool character. Well acted. Died a hero. But come on. This is not a top 50 character in any way, shape or form.

44. The Client. Look, I enjoy seeing and hearing Werner Herzog say “I would like to say the baby” as much as the next guy. Probably more. I love that he was cast in The Mandalorian. But again…we’re talking about the best Star Wars characters. Out of all of them. This ranking is insane.

36. Qui-Gon Jinn. We’re getting him as a Force ghost in the Obi-Wan Kenobi series finale…right? RIGHT?!?

35. Finn. I love Finn. I think he was a fascinating character and I believe that John Boyega did a wonderful job playing him. The scripts did him absolutely no favors after The Force Awakens, and that’s a shame. He seems to have a negative opinion of his entire Star Wars experience after how the sequels shook out, and that is truly unfortunate. I’d absolutely be onboard for a Finn-centric series on Disney+.
