Teaser played during the Super Bowl:
This is another “a Star Wars story” movie like Rogue One. I thought R1 was a great movie. It had the advantage of being butted up to a classic movie, in the middle of a great story. Solo will have sort of the same credentials. I don’t believe they’ll go making statements with it. They’ve got a bad ass reputation to uphold in the character. Cockiness, flying skills, dodging Imperial check points, smuggling, screwing the Hutts (in a non-slug fetishized manner)...Wish I could get excited about this. I'm sure they will find a way to diminish a beloved character like they have with the latest movies. Hopefully I am wrong!

And if Disney wants to keep their $4B investment alive and not pissing off their fan base (or their fan base’s kids), they’ll learn from Georgie’s mistake in that shenanigan.well he DID shoot first - but they also tried to undo that whole scene - so its anyones guess what they might do with it.
Nah, they know the fanboys will keep coming no matter what and the new fans just don't know or care. Disney knows they pretty much have this thing on auto pilot and they can do what they want. They will be printing money with this franchise for years to come.And if Disney wants to keep their $4B investment alive and not pissing off their fan base (or their fan base’s kids), they’ll learn from Georgie’s mistake in that shenanigan.

Han and Chewbacky smuggling space weed for Woody Harrelson.
Dumping it at the first sign of Star Destroyers.
Who cares!
Dude, they’re not even done stretching their Star Wars hammies—they’ve not even begun to hit jogging stride yet!I’m getting SW fatigue.
All of that was mentioned in the video I posted. Not real good explanations why, just theories and comments.Anyone notice that the front nose of the Falcon is different? It does not have the 2 point cut out. Chewy is sporting 2 Bandoleers which diverges from the prequels and the Original Trilogy and New Trilogy. All I want to know is where can I get a DL44.
Not sure on the exact time line but it is well before a new hope,it's a young han solo, who looks more like Ray liotta than Harrison ford,. So if the box office is strong enough there's room on the timeline for sequels,. ( Spoiler alert)How far ahead of "A new hope" does it take place? Immediately like rogue one or years that may allow for sequels?
the movie ends with han heading for tataouine to meet a big crime boss ( I'm guessing Java the hut for a big job)
Same attitude I had about the movie, ,there's enough action in the first 20 minutes of the film that you find yourself hooked, but though in my mind there's only one true Han Solo( Harrison Ford) I was able to put away these preconceived notions and actually enjoy the movie, gave it a 7.5 out of 10. Would have rated it higher but the ending was a little weak and predictable.Im with you S4f, I want to watch this movie, but Han Solo is an icon of my youth. A large part of me is not wanting to like the movie because there is no Han but Harrison Ford as Han. I hope I am wrong.
