Isn't "good" writing subjective? Apparently someone thought he was good. Someone with an opinion just as valid as yours even if it's opposite.
So Vader should never.....ever scream out NOOOO!?
Verta seems like he's not open to anything outside the original films, unless he was the one to make them. Or a very narrow view of how they should be made. There are pigheaded fans who have a dogmatic narrow view of how SW should be.

Well... close enough?
Anyway about TFA, the story should be fine (as long as Kasdan is involved), the actors' performances won't let down being who they are.
My only concerns are all about its genre: if it's your usual Marvel-style blockbuster, I'm not interested, being to me basically the same movie over and over again since the first X-Men movie. Also Abrams: I admit I haven't seen any of his Star Trek movies, but his Mission Impossible 3 was bad enough to me that I'm just a little concerned that TFA will be another action-packed-special-full-of-special-effects-with-ridiculous-plot-twists movie, and... Mr. Verta's rumors about TFA make my concerns actually legit by now.
Guess I'll have to wait and see for myself :D
Ok we now go by hearsay where was Verta's comments posted and or whom said they heard them? Where?
I wonder if you hated Doc Oct's similar NOOOO!! in Spider-Man 2
CatBus I am surprised you are even posting in this thread. You are one of those opinions are facts people. When film and art is highly subjective.
You know there will always be a percentage that will hate it. No matter what.
Ian bad? How can you tell that shakespearean Tony award winner he was bad? I think he knows more about acting than anyone here so I put his opinion above anyone else here.

I like it that he got up in Veer's face. Even for 1 second.

Yeah but the hypocrisy is if someone started a positive prequel thread, many of you throw negative comments in it and would say they should be allowed. Truth told, there really isn't anything that can be said on the topic that hasn't already been said over the last 10 years. Pos or neg.

Just FYI, being allowed to have a differing opinion and being allowed to escape criticism for having a differing opinion are two different things.
Works both ways. It's art, it's subjective.
And how dare anyone have a differing opinion.
They still don't suck to me. I still enjoy them.
They worked ok for him.
I'm not even sure Ewan was on the Tatooine shoot in Tunisia for EP2 at all, so it could have just been anyone near his build and height from side view in the Jedi robe with hood up. The could put the in studio close ups with Ewan later had they used it.
George chucked it because he decided baby Luke should be handed to Beru, with Owen keeping his distance. He originally shot Kenobi handing to Owen.
He used the plate shots of the homestead taken during to EP2, and put in the actors via bluescreen.
Think is most of these aren't issues really issues if they (newer generations) watch EP1 first. The connections run in sequence and you don't think, oh he C3PO was built by Anakin, because you see EP1 first thing and see how he ends up with the Organas/Captain Antilles by the end of EP3. New generations that watch 1-3 first, not not 4-6.
He has awareness, Kylo built and chose to use it. There is a guy who swung a sword with crossguards and it never touched his body. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PLzvznM2dDo
Also under the video on his youtube account he commented:
... My theory due to the fact Jet Cooper the cross-guard lightsaber designer on behalf of J.J Abrams and team as well sent me an email thanking me for making this video and a conversion I will not disclose, is it is an artifact from the ancient history of the Sith and Jedi when they wore armour it would have a ancient style not used anymore associated with it much like the regular Lightsaber styles are based on the Japanese Katana it would be based on European Longsword or bastard swords.
Cobert explained it months ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DazDi3yk4bw starting at 4 mins

Seriously though, Lucasfilm should be talking to this guy.
JEDIT: Hard to find an image that won't break!
I really hope they do too. Not that JJ is involved with this Solo stand-alone, but I think I remember reading somewhere that he was impressed with Ingruber; so it sounds like Ingruber is at least for sure known to Lucasfilm.
After listening to this interview with SchmoesKnow https://youtu.be/8Ff3dL1YdS8 he's a really cool guy too I think. In there when he's asked to say something as Harrison Ford, it's awesome how great he is at impromptu, and that is a sign of a great actor! Like other people here, I cannot imagine anyone else as Han Solo but Ford himself (certainly not Chris Pine, even if he's a cool actor too) but this Anthony Ingruber guy, who looks very much like and sounds like Harrison, he is the only one who I can see it working very well with. He gets my full support.
I said the same thing, Han IS Harrison Ford. But if they are going to make a Han Solo movie regardless, I believe this is their guy.

A transient saber that was sacrificed to demonstate the cutting power of assembly line machinery.
God, I hate how unpersonalized and replaceable lightsabers were treated in the PT. Obi-Wan goes through two (or three, if you count Qui-Gon's weapon) before finally getting his signature lightsaber from SW in ROTS (And even then, it's not a film-accurate replica of the SW saber.).
The hilts look basically the same from scene to scene, but there are also differences in the context of the same films. Luke's (Anakin) saber has differences from the ANH one in ESB and even differences from scene to scene in the context of the same movie. Hero (Close up) shots are very few in the context of the films themselves, so it's really no big deal. The main way to spot difference is look at the prop photo books.
I wish you would explain in detail how this new film looks unprofessional and what makes you qualified to judge what is or isn't professional? These are the top production values money can buy. Also a big drawing point to this movie is having the old cast back. I'm sure if they didn't have any cast members back there would be a lot of complaining about that too from other folks with opinions just as valid as yours. As Mark Hamill said, it's more about the new cast than it is them, they are there just to pass the torch. It makes sense to have them back.
Watch this link below and tell me if you think this guy should not at least a screentest audition for the Solo movie. It's almost feels like destiny. Now some will say he's just an imitator and has little acting experience, just like many people in the SW movies had little experience before they were cast.
At least screentest the guy, he look more like Ford than anyone else does. Ford was his hero and inspiration to get into acting. He is 25 now. They said late teens early 20s Han in the upcoming film. But if 25 year old Hamill can play near 20 year old Luke, why can't Anthony play Solo being slightly younger?
