So what about Laurie's character wins it for you then? I think she's likeable enough, but not overly interesting (not just because she's been copied) She's just kinda... there to me. Whereas Nancy probably wins with writing, for the reasons Addyson said

I still think Jess's writing was great though, so the performance won it for me. Olivia nailed it

What's wrong with Jess or Nancy?

Laurie is boring. Alice is boring. Well, I still need to see the original Texas chainsaw massacre, but like you said, Sally has no personality. But I'll watch to see. Nancy is okay, but I need to re watch nightmare on elm street. Jess is overrated. Do not see why people are saying she is the best final girl. She seems pretty plain, the only thing that's different is that she's pregnant.

Jess isn't the best ever, BUT the pregnancy and abortion are still REALLY big deviations from standard final girl. Also, she's one of the first ones ever. It's not her fault people copied the archetype. The acting helps a lot, Olivia positively nailed it.

Nancy is awesome. Rewatch Nightmare. Laurie is kinda bland, but not awful. Apparently she and Michael are supposed to mirror each other (sexual frustration) I just don't get all the love to her. She's never been anything that special to me in the original.
