What about this guy:

Doesn't he deserve his own film?

Well, according to most EU sources (other than the radio drama) he is actually a she.  It's hard to tell, I know, because she needs a shave.

Alec Guinness was a girl?

Didn't you hear?  And Mrs. Peacock was a man!

Bkev, next time you watch ANH, look at the cheapskate who purchases Luke's landspeeder.

Oh I figured that's who it was. I'm just suddenly very glad you don't normally get a good look at that mask.

The used Speeder lot alien has hooves for hands? I did not know that!

The larger issue is why they are wearing Jedi robes. ;)

Han Solo and Bradley Cooper could do the role convincingly.  Set some time just before episode 4.  I dont care for necessarily an origins film....im kind of over the whole origins of sci fi characters movies.  I want to see his troubles with Jabba, the gamble with Lando for the Falcon, his tangles with Boba Fett and the Kessel Run.  Evading bounty hunters and the Empire, the last scene is him and Chewie going into hyperdrive in the Falcon and landing on Tattooine. 

 

I just want to see extensive use of the Millenium Falcon in a movie again.  And I want to see Han Solo as the Han Solo we know; not as a child.  I dont care how he found Chewbacca but I obviously want him in the movie.  He was a swashbuckler and scoundrel and that's the lasting impression we should have of him. 

 

A one off action buddy cop flick set in a galaxy far far away using that "out of the frier and into the frying pan" theme and pacing that Lucas used in episode 4 and the Indiana Jones films.  I mean really, that is what a Han Solo flick should be....fun.

ok what this is creepy.

Sorry to give you nightmares bkev. What's more wonderful about that pic IMO is the look on Alec's face, "What the hell am I doing in a place like this in a movie like this." :)

I'm not aware of the EU darth ender, could it be a shemale or are you still talking about Guinness? ;)

Forget Fett hows about a Garindan movie.

That voice is so sexy.

I'd pay to see a Garindan movie. :)

When I saw the film when I was a kid, I completely failed to recognize what he/she was wearing and thought it was just a phony looking trunk. I must get me one of those, it is one sexy voiced suspicious looking character. :)

If you lead right up to Episode IV, then how would you explain Han looking so different? Assuming he meets Luke shortly after landing on Tattooine.

To explain the different appearences there should probably be at least  a few years between the spinoff and Episode Iv.

 I hope Disney has the brains to not make a Young Han Solo movie starring Shia from Crystal Skull and Bayformers

I want to see a black comedy about a young Piett, who keeps getting promoted because the people around him die.

Rumor mill says that there might be an Obi-wan/Darth Maul film under consideration between Eps. III and IV.  Not sure how I feel about it, but then I'm really not sure how I feel about any of these standalone films.  It would be nice to see closure with Maul, but I'd rather see it in The Clone Wars.

As a side note, if you play Duel of the Fates backwards, you can hear that the choir is actually singing, "Maul is dead."

I can see an origin story of Jabba the Hutt. It can be like a noir/mafia type movie.

Um, so now you've made me feel bad for asking, but...  if it's not a phony looking trunk... what is it?
