RUMOR Solo: A Star Wars Story News and Rumors Thread

That "Never Tell Me The Odds" Poster is beautiful and sooo Han!

 

I’m glad to see that initial response to Solo has been pretty favorable. I’m looking forward to seeing it. It seems to me many thought it was a fun movie which is what I was hoping for. If that is the case, it likely will do well with the casual movie goer. How hardcore fans react will be interesting to see. It seems like to me that more and more now the hardcore fan has too many expectations or ideas about what should be in these movies which a lot of times ends up leading to disappointment. If we can keep an open mind going in, I think most will end up enjoying Solo.

 

Those posters look amazing! Starships in the background (in the sky) always look nice.

 

i can't unsee it now ~ hahahaha

Can't wait to see it again!

 

That last scene with Han and Chewie... Was that in the movie?

 

Curious this one comes with extras, perhaps the backstage, and rogue one didn´t come.

i love it! : D

 

Talking about Solo, who in here is ready to see more of Donald Glover as Lando? I would love to see more capes and a great spin off of sort that would feature Lando in all his caped glory! We also need to thing about the love story between him and L3 has not been told yet.

 

Yep @ClintZilla I loved Glover as Lando.....would be up for a spin off focused on Lando. Did you read the book "Last Shot"? Awesome later story (set after ROTJ, before TFA) about Han and Lando.

 

Last Shot was terrible. Han being hypnotized by a giant crab creature? Reminds me of worst of Legends. Also i hope any ideas of a Pando Calrissian movie stay on the shelf.

 

Such a moment of pure joy and happiness would have fit in the movie, as Chewie should have been happy and thrilled to be free again. But in this case, "the beast" should not have fought Han with little snowy balls, but rather, full loads, maybe ten kilograms of snow each time, thrown on Han until he is totally covered

I guess I'll put this post here? YouTube just suggested this video to me and it shows, what I think to be, the start of the technology that The Mandalorian used to film:

Just around the 7-minute mark I think.
