Han - Solo Movie ** Spoilers ** — Page 20

No, I’m suspicious, but I am not from that exclamation point.

This movie is already DOA with Emilia Clarke in it

Oh yay there’s another one.

Yeah, I’m basically indifferent. I’ll probably Netflix the BD when it comes out and see what it’s like then.

Overall I’d like to see more new stories with Anthologies instead of exploring the backstory of a bunch of OT characters. There’s a lot of risk of de-mystifying characters in a bad way (See PT for a zillion examples of this)

Yep.

New stuff please Disney.

In a few years there will essentially be two prequel trilogies. Not a pleasing thought.

There have been 2 prequel trilogies since 2005; the Holiday Special, Battle For Endor & Caravan Of Courage being one (from a certain point of view), and the TPM, AOTC & ROTS as the other Prequel Trilogy.

You’re right - it certainly hasn’t been a pleasing thought.

Thankfully, Rogue One goes up some way to making things right - though we’ll have to wait and see about the Solo film - and then whatever the next Standalone Story is about, no?

The other one is probably the Boba Fett movie right?

I hope so, though probably not. If the alleged Fett film was ready to go - but the studio got cold feet about the director (Josh Trank?) - then surely it’d have made sense to replace the director and then just carry on - though it seems this isn’t he case.

As there hasn’t been been much/any news on the 3rd standalone film it’s difficult to guess what they’re going to do as of now - though personally I’d like to see a film from the Empire point of view (whether that be a stormtrooper, officer, agent or higher-up in Palpatine’s circle).

(possible Jedi-purge and Obi-Wan themed films I think will likely be kept back until after the Sequel Trilogy finishes)

Well that or Obi-Wan http://omegaunderground.com/2017/04/21/exclusive-mr-robot-creator-sam-esmail-might-pen-star-wars-anthology-script/

Sam Esmail doing a standalone SW film is something to look forward too 😃

(visions of Rami Malek a as a Rebel hacker in a dystopian future with friends/allies/enemies amongst his inner circle/surroundings - Portia Doubleday could be the first blonde in the SW universe 😉)

Just kidding (maybe?) - though it’d be very interesting to see what he would come up with…

TMZ just released some BTS photos from the Solo movie, including our first look at Ehrenreich in costume.

Plus, a whole bunch of speeders.
I wonder if we’ll get a bit of an American Graffiti-vibe with young Han doing a lot of racing (which would make sense in an origin story about a pilot).

And there’s this guy (who’s most likely just an extra);

I also forgot to post this when it was news, but this guy might show up at some point in the film (unless he ends up like Zuvio in TFA);

Well, I imagine these cars are supposed be have been made up of whatever scrap people have been able to find, hence the odd looks.

For all we know Han might be made fun of for the odd look of his “junk car”. He isn’t exactly know for his aesthetically pleasing vehicles.

First thought was of a 60’s toy Batmobile 😃

Maybe they’re going for a cool retro look? (with likely homage to American Graffiti tucked away somewhere in there - so you know… it all rhymes and mirrors and other ‘George talk’ stuff - eurgh!)
