Pepper is really the only love interest in the MCU that I enjoyed. Well, one's that were solely written to be a archetype love interest to the hero. Paltrow, and Downey had actual chemistry together, and I enjoyed watching her even without Downey, which I can't say for most of the other boring characters in this series, like Portman's character in the Thor movies, for example.
Rey is badass! I can't fully commit to saying Rey is my favorite main Star Wars protagonist just yet, since the trilogy isn't over, but I feel like Daisy Ridley made a far bigger impression with her first Star Wars film than Mark Hamill did in A New Hope. But, he became more interesting with the next two films, so I suppose we'll see where Episode 8, and 9 go, in terms of Rey's character progression.
