Final: calls off a mission that absolutely needed to happen

Finn:
Start: only wants to find Rey and prove himself to the rebellion/resistance. Initially is fearful.
Final: he overcomes his fear, but is kept from proving himself to the R/R through sacrifice because Rose wanted a kiss out of nowhere
Rose:
Start: plucky but mostly useless character.
Final: plucky and entirely useless character who dooms everyone to die for a kiss.

Rey:
Start: A lost and troubled Jedi seeking answers.
Final: She learns she didn’t need any answers because they were inside her all along. Also that training is for losers who suck
#growth
Luke:
Start: disillusioned master Jedi who ran away because he tried to murder his nephew while he slept
Final: decides to join the R/R but not for realzies because that’s super dumb. He projects a picture of himself and dies. This is after he gets his butt kicked by Rey
#growth
Leia: Princess and General of the R/R
Start: feisty bad-a who takes no guff. Somehow she doesn’t trust the most trustworthy man in the galaxy(Poe)

Vice Admiral Holdo:

Final: after being stupid, seeing her plan fail because it sucked, she does something awesome that makes no sense
#growth
Captain Phasma
Start: looks awesome, has a grudge against Finn for some reason
Final: dies like a punk because after her ship gets blown in half, she still has such a revenge boner that she goes after an insignificant person when you take into account HER SHIP IS IN HALF !!!
Snoke: big baddie, most powerful crevasse faced dude in the galaxy
Start: connects Rey and Kylo via space love tethers for his own nefarious purposes
Final: dies like a punk because he was too busy sucking up to his own genius(?). Has no arc or purpose.
#growth
Kylo: powerful rage filled sith... lord? Padawan? Trainee?
Start: angry at the world, but starts a sweet weird creepy wet shirtless romance(?) with Rey via love tethers
