Idk I dont really feel Han Solo needs an origin movie. Also someone other than Ford playing the part feels like a bad cosplay.

Nope. I wasn't interested in Rogue One either. My interest in all future SW movies is pretty much gone. Disney is just cashing in on the Star Wars name.

Nope. None of this Disney shit counts as far as I'm concerned and I'm still a huge Star Wars fan.

I lost interest in the entire franchise after The Last Jedi.

I am done with it.

I wasn't interested in Rogue One either, but it ended up being one of my favorite ones in the franchise. It took itself seriously, and felt more like a war movie than any other Star Wars movie.

I never put the Star Wars franchise on a pedestal, so I just wait for reviews and audience reactions before checking one out one of the movies

I mean most people would agree it's not a story we needed but I'd have said the same thing about R1 beforehand too, and it ended up making Ep 4 even better in retrospect.

And Solo's been getting pretty good to great word of mouth so far.

I think Rouge One shows they can get it right I also liked The Force Awakens if only on nostolgia. TLJ was disappointing and Im not sure how they can save the trilogy from mediocrity now. But Solo looks cringy to me. Like someone else said I think its the lead.

In a perfect world, this just would have been a Dash Rendar movie with a Han Solo cameo or something.

But, ya know, nobody knows who the fuck Dash Rendar is and you can't have Chewey and Lando hanging with him or the Millineum Falcon. Gotta have those references baybee

I'm not particularly interested in it either. Felt the same way about Rogue One. There are other potential Star Wars spin-offs that would interest me, but who knows if they'll actually happen.

They should just make Shadows of the Empire canon. It doesn't really interfere with the new canon as far as I know, right? Although I suppose it's too late to make a movie out of that. And I guess they may want to make their own story taking place between ESB and ROTJ some day.

I will watch Solo if somebody buys me a ticket. I'm not paying. That actor neither looks nor sounds like Harrison Ford, plus I never felt it was important for a backstory. On the other hand, if you're a fan and looking forward to this movie, then I hope you enjoy it very much.

I'm only interested in stories that advance the overall plot in some way. R1 didn't interest me. Neither does Solo.

I'd be interested in a Boba or Vader movie though. It could just be just them wrecking shit in a hallway for 2 hours and I'd love it.

I really don't care about a young Han Solo. I'll catch it on Redbox though, because I'm curious how they'll characterize him, considering he wasnt exactly "hero protagonist" material when we first see him in ANH. >_>

If we're going to do prequels can we please get a Qui Gon movie before Liam Neeson gets any older? <_<

The only star wars movies u would want that aren't main story are Qui Gon or Kenobi.

But I'm not sure what they can do with Kenobi since he spends all those years in exile then dies.

It would be him chasing tusken raiders off of his property for two and a half hours with a short segment of him haggling with Jawas for a better deal on a part for his dish washer.

I'm not really interested in these "solo" movies coming out. Rogue One was forgettable. Unlikely that any of these films will be able to live up to the glory that is TLJ. I still rank the twist on the salt planet as the greatest twist in cinema history. My whole theater erupted in applause at that scene.

Add a female bounty hunter who, despite any training, would be better than Boba.
