I expect it to be as bad as TLJ.

I would be fine if Solo is the best Star Wars movie Disney has released, and a very close runner up to Empire Strikes Back for the franchise as a whole.

I know nothing about the character but I hope the new trilogy is The Jaxxon Trilogy.

Jaxxons corpse can actually be seen in an episode of Clone Wars which is canon now so....

Here are some lines I expect Han to say in Solo:

"That's the last time I help anyone. It's you and me from here on out, Chewie ol pal"
"Lando I don't trust ya but I like ya"
"We'll fudge that" (this is after he does the Kessel Run in 12.2 parsecs)
"I love this ship and I'm going to keep it in mint condition forever"
"These dice are pretty important to me"
"You guys must have a death wish or you're none too bright" (this is when he meets Diego Luna and K2)
"Where's the toilet on this thing"

"Jesus, did I say that? Or just think it? Was I talking? Did they hear me?"
Han Solo might be the best pilot in the galaxy, but I need to know how he took a pristine YT-1300 and made it look like the inside of every searched car i’ve ever seen on Live PD.

All the diegetic music would be replaced by the greatest Jizz wailing from the galaxy far far away.

The version of this film that exists in my head would have been produced with a budget to small for Disney to sign off on.

Same. Whoever is Solo looks bland and dim and has nowhere near the amount of charisma you need to play a young version of Harrison Ford.

they auditioned 3,000 actors and came up with this highly distinctive bunch. real balls of charisma, every one

In case you're wondering, the speeder Han was driving in the trailer appears to be based on a Falcon. A Ford Falcon.

this is pretty much hollywood reaping what it sows, though. they've been relying on special effects in lieu of charisma and haven't built any new tentpole stars with the kind of strong personality you need for this part. see also: worthington, sam. courtney, jai.

Still firmly believe Ansel Elgort would have been a better yung Solo. Edgar Wright probably should have directed the movie too.

It sucks that he got soured on franchise movies because he would make the best movie in pretty much any franchise you can think of

Dave Franco has some charisma but I have a hard time seeing how he could pass as a young Han Solo in any possible universe.

The bottom left guy is James Franco's brother Dave Franco and the weird looking fellow to his right is Miles Teller from Whiplash and the most recent Fantastic Four. hth

It’s amazing how much Jack Reynor looks like Chris Pratt. I bet he would have been a good choice for Solo. Sing Street is great, watch it if you haven’t yet.
