Alright I'm out of this thread until I go see it.
That was a fun time. I'll say that the pacing is really fast and can feel hard to keep up, but the action scenes are great, and the performances were all very good.
I wouldn't put it above Rogue One, but it's still a solid movie and there's some great moments for the die-hard fans.

I really enjoyed it. Fun film. I thought Ehrenreich did a good job. My only complaint was that the picture seemed too dark. It was hard to make things out in scenes that weren't well lit. Presumably, it was just the theater I was in.

You can find my longer reaction in the Solo thread, but anyone who is just "meh" on this movie is insane.
It's absolutely fantastic.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
Big day for Star Wars. Not only does Solo drop today, it's also the 41st anniversary of the release of A New Hope.
Happy birthday Star Wars!

That is my absolute favorite SW poster. I've got an original framed and hanging in my SW room at the casa.Brian Earl Spilner said:

If I had a $ for every time I pretended to be Luke on that barge signaling R2.

Wow.
I have absolutely no desire to see a spin-off focused on Boba Fett, but with Mangold at the helm my interest is certainly piqued.
Will Lucasfilm do it? Will they make an R-rated Star Wars Film?
Based on previous posts, I'm guessing Brian is a fan of the prequels. I am also a fan of the prequels. Therefore, the "s" is warranted.COOL LASER FALCON said:

Just keep the spin-offs coming... Solo 2, Obi-Wan, Boba Fett... whatever they've got coming down the pike, I'm there.

I like parts of them. I think I'd really like the long cut version that essentially smashes them all into a 3.5 hour movie and gets rid of the crap
Don't know how to get my hands on that though

Yeah, look at the time stamps. My tune changed with the hiring of Mangold and my love of Solo.

So young Lando spinoff and now this.
I'm assuming we'll see how Lando came to Cloud City in his spin-off, my main question is how he'll tie into Ep IX.
Would it be cool if Lando was involved in finding Luke's lightsaber after Vader cut off his hand? Maybe he knew Maz, too.
I will say it would be awesome to see Rey give him the Falcon back.
Also, dude needs to be shown proper respect in the Rebellion. Homeboy destroyed Death Star II.

That's a great idea and definitely the kind of little things I'd like to see in Episode IX that would help tie up the saga.

You are insane for not having TLJ ranked dead last.

Personally, having Solo above RO is already crazy. Much less having it at 3.

RO seems really split. There are a few I know that have it ranked up there with the best but most everyone else has is mixed up in the middle somewhere. No one I know hates it though.
Many, many people would disagree with you.Laser Wolf said:TCTTS said:

IMO R1 is a well-made movie with some enjoyable aspects, but it could be a little hard to get into it when you know none of the characters are important and exactly to what extent they will succeed in their mission. I think a lot of detractors might have gotten knocked out of the movie by the early frenetic world hopping and deceptively irrelevant Forest Whittaker, too.
I would expect it to have a lot of variation in that ROTJ-TFA-SOLO-R1 cluster of movies that all seem very dependent on what you value in a movie experience.

Would be funny to see him go through the falcon like an hgtv renovation " we need to put a bar here, convert this to a master cape closet..."
As for episode 9, makes sense the resistance needs to be helped by Lando. Could be an easy way to bring in a fleet under commander callarisian.
Solo tanking for star wars movie this weekend. Kathleen Kennedy gonna get her ass fired/reassigned withing a year.
Y'all keep thinking it was an angry minority that hated TLJ. I said the fallout of that debacle wouldn't be felt until Solo and episode IX. Hopefully whoever takes over for Kennedy runs Rian Johnson out of town, too.
