Isn’t Hand-Solo just a supporting character in his own film?
I made it through my whole life without EVER watching a Star Wars movie. Not one.
Yea me!
It appears Disney is going to milk this Cosmic Cow for all she’s worth.
Be sure to send a big thank-you card to Mark Hamill for telling Trump supporters no to go to star wars movies...!
Time to wrap up Star Wars. Good story writing and imagination has gone away because of groupthink and poor education in America.
All they have are stupid remakes that ruin an original hit show or movie by rearranging the deck chairs and adding in social justice hogwash.
meh Solo=Zero
We took our kids to see the original “Star Wars” in the 70’s, in Tallahassee, while we went across the street to the mall to finish up our Christmas shopping.
To this day, I’ve never even seen a single movie about “Star Wars”. I don’t care to, either.
And, I’m really sick of hearing about it, and of the never-ending sequels. I think it’s all about new generations of “special effects”, trying to outdo the older “special effects”. In my experience, the more a show becomes about the special effects and graphics, the worse the movie is overall.
I’ve seen all bit the last 2,I’m done
Is it still diversity against White Males?
Disney killed Han’s character, and never had all the original characters on the screen at the same time.
To help with these people. Who writes a new Star Wars movie and never once does that?
The trend for all SW movies since disney bought them is downward.
People don’t like crapping and pissing all over a beloved franchise accompanied by having PC shoved down their throat. Who’d a thunk it???
That chick who took over said “we don’t need the young male market.”
Guess not.
I hope it bombs worse than, “Miss Sloane.”
I dunno - this piece from Variety piqued my interest.
FWIW - it’s seems that Harrison Ford thought it was great.
I think they’re still overestimating it. $130 seems too high.
What drives crotchety old guys to post on every Star Wars thread that they have never seen a Star Wars movie and never will?
Is it some sort of conservative virtue signaling?
It is almost as bad as the anti-Apple posters and those suffering from TDS.
We really don’t care. Sincerely.
Got my ticket! 10:45 AM.
So “only” a bit shy of the record for the weekend. 90% of movies don’t make that much in their entire run.
Just saw it.
It Was AWESOME :)
OK, a bit overdone, the train robbery.
Han was very much the star. So he’s not a clone or CGI double of Harrison Ford circa 1977. Good enough for me.
How he got his name...
How he met Chewbacca...
Winning the Falcon from Lando...not when you expect...
BTW, Lando only gets the hots for the cute girl...and I kept seeing her as Danaerys Targaryen and imagining her in the state of nature :)
TWO surprise castings, both drew their own applause...one of them for the actor, the other for the actor/character...
SJW message? Meh... No more so than the message that made my double-great grandfather join a regiment of volunteer infantry upon a time...
“No one has made the Kessel Run in under 20 parsecs!” ... “Hold muh beer” (well, not quite...)
So THAT”S why the Falcon looked like a “piece of junk” to Luke so long ago (in our era)...
No vilification of religion, Americanism (I found the violent pro-liberty interlude very American on both counts!),poly-ticks or honkitude...
Anyway, it was the very first showing in my metro area. Yeah, sparsely attended, but yeah. most folks are at work, and if I wasn’t on a “four ten-hour day” schedule, I would be too!
...which leads me to believe that NOT ONE PERSON in this grumpy get-off-my-lawn thread had actually SEEN it before trashing it.
No yawns!!
