Solo: A Star Wars Story

Foreign Solo poster.
IMHO, this is probably 97% what the final poster will look like.

It looks 97% like a fan made film.

Fucking awful poster. Let's try some originality for once, eh?

Whelp, the Facebook post has been taken down.

Found this article, which has a screen grab:

Something's going on...

They do look pretty similar.

In style and color.

The masked villain from the trailer is Enfys Nest, and it's a woman.
I hope they treat her better than Captain Phasma.

It's Khan!

Oh shit, yeah!
That's where I've seen that visor before!

'Nother trailer tomorrow.

Don’t care.

Someone might.

Fuck.
It drops during American Idol which is from 8:00 to 10:00
So they're gonna try to fuck up Walking Dead.
If it hasn't dropped by 8:59, too bad, I'm gonna have to miss it.
I'll check every commercial break on TWD, but you guys are probably gonna scoop me.

Dude… it'll be on YT 15 seconds later. Also, does it really matter?

In the meantime, you should probably check out this French car commercial. https://io9.gizmodo.com/whet-your-appetite-for-new-solo-footage-with-this-fre-1825090198

Sorry folks, fell asleep waiting, and woke up at 10.
Anyway, HERE!!

It's literally his life.

Gotta say, I'm definitely feeling it.

New poster!

I keep waiting for them to put out the Struzan style one, but it looks like they're sticking with this style, and this painter.

I'm not. Alden just doesn't remotely feel like Ford to me. Not at one point did I watch that and think "that's Han Solo". At least with Ewan McGregor you could believe he was a younger Alec Guinness.

Is there any contemporary entertainment that you won't poo poo? Sheesh.

On the subject of poo pooing things, I'm gonna be a heretic and say Struzan is overrated. Glad they're trying new things

Well, I liked Last Jedi...

There are people on this board who think that's a capital offense.

I've not read back on the threads here, but I've yet to see anyone from the meltdown crowd make a truly legitimate complaint about Last Jedi that doesn't basically amount to it not meeting their personal expectations for one or more characters. It's not perfect by any means, but at least one of the Disney movies tried to do something different rather than playing just to the nostalgia crowd.

This movie, in contrast, feels like a cynical attempt to play to that nostalgia crowd...and then is made worse by having a key, to me crucial, element missing. I mean, if you're going to go the whole hog with digital Peter Cushings and Carrie Fishers in Rogue One, it seems a bit jarring to have Han Solo played by someone who doesn't really evoke Ford or resemble him at all. *shrug* I know it wouldn't happen, mostly because I don't think he would have been interested, but I would have probably been more up for this if it were a de-aged Ford. If Scorsese can do it for De Niro, Pacino and Pesci for nearly an entire movie then surely Disney by now could have done it. Oh well. Not as if it'll kill off future SW movies any more than Last Jedi did. On to Rian Johnson's trilogy and more meltdowns!

Ok, THAT trailer has piqued my interest.

I don't worship at his altar or anything, it's just one of those traditions I look forward to.
If they're gonna break that tradition, that's fine, I just kinda wish they'd say so so I don't wait for it.
Like, they've admitted they're retiring the Wilhelm scream.

Trailer looks good, but I won’t get fooled again.

What if people you trust say its good?
