    For those who find Rose Tico "insufferable," I challenge you binge episodes of "Nailed It" on Netflix and see how you feel about the host by the end. NOT my idea of a good time...

    "You're a better man than I am, Gunga Din!"

    EDIT: Actually, you don't qualify for the challenge since I don't think you find Rose to be insufferable. It's about offering a fresh perspective....

    Rose is a great character with a couple of poorly written lines and a central role in the weakest part of TLJ. No biggy. I'm sure she'll be used more effectively in TROS.

    I think Rose is a great, and her character was very likable to me from the start. She also got the best new musical theme in TLJ in my opinion. Hope she gets a decent part in TROS as well, but I have a bad feeling that she will be side-lined a little. Would definitely love to hear her theme again too.

    I hope that Rose has a compelling arc in TROS. I like Kelly Marie Tran and hope we see more of her.

    I actually liked Rose. I love her line “We're going to win this war not by fighting what we hate, but saving what we love!”

    I really don't have an issue with the character of Rose or Kelly Marie Tran herself. Although she is part of a stupid and unnecessary subplot, she actually does her best. That being said, as I have said many times about Boyega too, they don't seem to be in place with the Star Wars universe. They feel off, like they don't belong there. They are destined for Disney childish soft adventures, comedies and maybe some romance movies... It's not their acting skills, it's that their facial expressions and overall appearance seem that way to me... Maybe they can do some dramatic roles in the future and really shine, but right now this is how I see them.

    Anyway, TROS is the final chapter of this Saga and has a lot of things to show and loose ends to tie. I don't really see Rose having major screen time, she will probably be in some Falcon or Resistance spaceship scenes...

    I love both Rose and KM Tran. I hope she has a significant role in TRoS, it doesn't have to be a huge amount of screentime but I would like to see enough from her that forms some development for her story so far, which I think could be a big positive for everyone, however anyone feels about TLJ.

    Kelly Marie Tran: “Before, Rose was a new character who was in maintenance and she was not a huge part of the Resistance. But now she’s in the Resistance in a big way and it’s very cool.” “I had to learn everything that had to do with being in a war, like holding a gun. I’ve never held a gun before. Things like that, that you don’t even think about when you’re watching this movie. We’re all real people living real lives.” “We don’t shoot arrows off horses normally, so we have to learn every little thing. There’s so much detail and so much work that goes into everything.” (October 27, 2019) (archive)

    I love Rose Tico and not because of some overzealous reaction to the hate Kelly Marie Tran received. I think she is a great character and somewhere around here I made a lengthy post about it. I understand JJ has a lot on his plate if he intends to wrap up the entire saga with The Rise of Skywalker, so it's possible Rose will not have a lot of screen time. I hope she makes up with quality what may be lacking in quantity.

    I'm not sure she has a place in the new trilogy. Her sister seems to be the one that truly made a meaningful difference. Why Rose prevented Finn from taking out The First Order's super cannon and didn't sacrifice her own life is a mystery to me. I think it was simply annoying to most viewers, and we probably won't see much of her in TROS because of that scene; this is backed up by the fact that they are removing her from merchandise with new unfamiliar characters to the final saga film.

    I like Kelly as an actress and a person but the character Rose I am indifferent about.
