 Rank the Star Wars Protagonists!
Who is the most compelling protagonist in the Star Wars franchise? Luke is the only great one, IMO, but Qui Gon and Rey are well portrayed. Anakin isn't that great. Jyn Erso is completely forgettable.
1. Luke (IV-VI) 2. Qui-Gon (I) 3. Rey (VII) 4. Anakin (II-III) 5. Jyn Erso (III.5)
And this is just main characters, so no Han, Leia, Obi Wan, etc, because they were never the main character.

 Re: Rank the Star Wars Protagonists!
OBI Wan is clearly the main character of AOTC, his arc should have been so much better though

 Re: Rank the Star Wars Protagonists!
To answer the question, none of the protagonists are particularly compelling. But here is how I rank them:
1. Obi Wan Kenobi (I-II) 2. Qui-Gon Jin (I) 3. Rey (VII) 4. Anakin Skywalker (I-III) 5. Luke SKywalker (IV-VI)

To hard to recall, not that memorable: Luke Skywalker (IV-VI) TBD Jyn Erso (III.5)

 Re: Rank the Star Wars Protagonists!
Is Jyn Erso the new bitch in Rogue One? She's British so she's probably excellent.
