Really annoying they couldn't just create a new character and have Harrison Ford always be Solo. Also, a shame solo is not a black guy so the alt-right could shit on this movie. If the white guy gets to star in the awful remakes then their shittiness is fine I guess. E

"Holy shit! Han Solo in a prequel?! That's even better than Darth! With the blasters and the cool ship? He's a badass bounty hunter!"

"Yeah, and in this movie, you get to see him as a little kid!"

"Wait.. what? So you mean he's got a young wookie as a pet and he's shooting people and stuff, right?"

"No, he's just a little kid and his daddy dies and he's very sad."

I've liked the news ones too. I just saw the last one recently and it had some fucking cringey comedy and I could see people not liking the new powers but I thought it worked and was mostly good but this is annoying to me. This is the problem with Hollywood people make a big deal when they recast shit with non-white guys but if the Adam Sandler crew had remade Ghostbusters it would have been just as shitty and no one would have complained that much. Always rehashing shit. They should just come up with new characters in the Star Wars world.

I could go for a Sand People: a Star Wars story movie I think.

We see one of the Sand People as a little kid. He's destined to be the next ruler but thinks his father getting killed by a stampeding herd of whomp rats is his fault and runs away. The evil uncle takes over and forms a new dawn where jawa and sandpeople uneasily coexist. That's all I got so far.

I don't like it. I'd rather see some kind of story where some pirate wrongs one of the Tuscan Raiders. Maybe steals a droid from them when they're on route to the Jawa. Then the Raiders end up attacking the cantina or something.

I got another idea that I would need your Star Wars track/blues expertise on.

It's about black Sand athletes that could run really fast while also focusing on blues players in local Mos Eisley cantinas.

One more movie I have on the back burner is called Planet Olangapo. Might be more of a documentary.

Honestly not to fag out but Star Wars was super special to my childhood and with the despecialized editions still being out there and him starting out as a me-first person to becoming a hero to the way he was written out in Force Awakens I thought his whole story arc was perfect for him. Solo could then go down as one of the all time great characters. Now they are just going to water the shit down endlessly and dampen the impact of his whole storyline.

3/10. Easily the most inconsequential and inessential film of the entire franchise, including the prequels. I had low expectations and it didn't come close. I'm not sure I'd say it's worse than Phantom Menace yet, but it's in the conversation.

I won't get into it much until more people have seen it. But one of my biggest complaints about the movie has nothing to do with story, characters, acting, continuity, etc. (I have complaints about all of those things as well)

It's the fucking lighting. That's the worst lit movie I've ever seen. The background in almost every scene is brighter than the foreground, which is unnecessarily dark and makes it hard to read facial expressions for most of the film. Ever taken an indoor photo of people with a window nearby, and the window is by far the brightest thing in the picture while the people are almost silhouettes by comparison? That's how this whole fucking movie is shot. Seeing how most of the backgrounds are CGI, I don't understand how this could be messed up as badly as it was. It's like a DC movie except there's always something really bright behind the characters.

I don't get the SJW argument at all, which usually leads to something that was said or done off-screen. None of the movies have pushed any type of liberal agenda that I've seen (haven't seen Solo yet though). Conservatives will claim victory soon enough though when Solo fails to meet financial expectations, stating that it was a result of some boycott. :lol It has nothing to do with the fact that the movie doesn't look good or that it has been less than six months since the last Star Wars movie.

(https://dorksideoftheforce.com/2018/05/17/lando-calrissian-sexual-orientation/)

The definition of such orientation is:


pansexual: not limited in sexual choice with regard to biological sex, gender or gender identity.

As for Lando Calrissian, the point of his character being pansexual is displaying that he’s a real wild card and does whatever the hell he pleases.

Clone Wars starts out slow, but it ended up being a pretty good show and actually made Anakin seem somewhat human. Rebels was really good, too. xxx's storylines in both were excellent. Both of them have a lot of Jedi/Sith lore if you're at all interested in that stuff.

'Solo' Will Lose $50+ Million In First Defeat For Disney's 'Star Wars' Empire

To borrow one of Han Solo's lines from Star Wars: The Force Awakens, "That's not how the Force works!" It's an apt way to sum up the troubled performance of Solo: A Star Wars Story. In one of the biggest box-office surprises in recent times, Solo is badly underperforming and will become the first of the Star Wars movies made by Disney and Lucasfilm to lose money. Wall Street analyst Barton Crockett says Solo will lose more than $50 million (https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/solo-will-post-first-loss-disneys-star-wars-empire-1116927). Industry financing sources, however, say that figure could come in at $80 million or higher, although no one knows the exact terms of Disney's deals for home entertainment and television, among other ancillary revenues.

Showing the Kessel Run at all was a bad decision. The greatness of the original line was its ambiguity.

That's the problem with "checklist" movies like this, the filmed version is never as good or interesting as the audience's imagination.



Yeah kinda like making an entire Clone Wars movie off of the one line in New Hope

Maybe, but I thought Rogue One was a good movie and story on its own regardless. I thought the line in A New Hope that it was based on was served (vs. diminished) by an illustration of those events. The Kessel Run line was just a goofy throwaway that didn't need larger subtext built around it.

True, but they still could have found a way to make it better than THAT. The Kessel Run always sounded like some badass “Fast & Furious in Space” type speed run. It could have been done so much cooler than it was.

The Kessel Run line is huge in star wars lore. I honestly don't see how you make a Han Solo movie back story movie without it.

The "you fought in the clone wars?" line was way more of a throwaway line.

It's huge because its ambiguity allowed for an infinite number of interpretations, which is fun.

Now the Kessel Run is an actual thing, which (as Mono said) was basically another asteroid chase that we've seen already. That's less fun.

I think you can still do a Han Solo backstory without it. Focus the story around one specific and important event in his life. SOLO tried to tie in every "fan favorite" piece of Han's history into one cohesive story, and it just felt like they were completing an arbitrary checklist.

✅ (https://emojipedia.org/white-heavy-check-mark/)Han meets Chewbacca✅ (https://emojipedia.org/white-heavy-check-mark/)Han meets Lando✅ (https://emojipedia.org/white-heavy-check-mark/)Han wins the Falcon in a poker game✅ (https://emojipedia.org/white-heavy-check-mark/)Chewy becomes co-pilot✅ (https://emojipedia.org/white-heavy-check-mark/)Kessel Run
Etc. I don't think a good Han Solo movie requires an illustration of all of those events. It's empty fan service at the expense of story.

Do some new characters and spread the shit out so you don't milk it dry.
I keep saying this (but Disney doesn't listen to me :lol ).

They seem intent on fleshing out the post-episode III/pre-episode IV years and milking the same old tired characters. Hopefully the poor performance of Solo forces them to reexamine that decision. There are so many different stories in so many different timelines they could tell. Nobody wants to see a fucking Boba Fett movie.

Pure fan faction. He's a dude with a mask that had probably 10 minutes worth of screen time and almost no dialogue spread across two movies. And then had a ridiculous death. He isn't a character that needed the backstory he was given in the prequels or his own movie. I guarantee if his costume had been different, or we could at least see his face, nobody would give two shits about him.

Discount theater viewing. Yep, unnecessary and performed poorly enough to scuttle a Kenobi movie that could actually be compelling. One of the cool things about the first Star Wars was that most of the main characters were unknowns. Solo stuffed so many stars into its cast that it just came off as a really expensive cosplay party. There's so much overlap with other franchises you could just sit there and think "Why doesn't Vision just make himself intangible when Daenerys tries to kill him with a sword? Oh shit, Maeve just blew herself up! That's OK, Tallahassee can have her rebuilt."

Props to Glover for trying to pull off a Ben Carson impression every fifth line and to the writers for retconning the destroyer of the second Death Star into a fembot loving weirdo.

OTOH, I don't remember Ehrenreich pointing at anything even once. Movie gets a 3/10 for that alone.

Not sure how compelling a Kenobi movie would be, most of what I was curious about was sketched out pretty well in Clone Wars and Star Wars: Rebels.
