People are so accustomed to a protagonist that is brave and daring and feisty, nearly flawless. Or they have quirky or cute flaws that aren’t really flaws. Now we have boring, ditsy Richard who seems like a tertiary character that just does what he’s told. People don’t actually relate to most book/movie protagonists, though they like to think they do. Most of us are just Richards.
