7. Finn And Poe Escape
Finn was a bit of an unknown quantity going into The Force Awakens, and how his adventure would connect with the other storylines was a mystery. From the trailers I was expecting his to link up with Rey first, but his opening interactions were actually with Poe Dameron, and they were exceptional. The chemistry between the pair is already amazing to watch, and their escape to Jakku was great. First of all we got to see inside an old-school Star Destroyer in all of its 'retro' glory, before watching Finn and Poe blast their way out of it in typically explosive fashion. Another interesting aspect of it all was getting inside a TIE fighter, something that's only really done for a split second with nameless Imperial pilots. But, bigger than all that, the scene was the start of what could develop into a beautiful partnership.
