Honestly of the new characters Poe was my personal favorite. Rey was cool but she seemed like she was written to pander to the political correctness crowd that would say we need a girl to be a hero. I have no problem with a female being a hero but she was written as being stronger with the force than Kylo Ren was, despite the fact he had been training for years. Also the fact Rey wasn't even hurt after being pushed into a tree and falling 30 feet to the ground was most annoying. Finn was too much the "Knight in shining armor".
There have been rumors about Finn and Poe introducing a gay relationship into the series. I don't oppose gay marriage but if they bring it into Star Wars it just seems like it would be nothing more than a move pandering to the PC crowd. Maybe there'll be a love triangle where where Finn has to decide between Poe and Rey and he falls for both of them at different points in time. At least that would be original.
