watch the trailer and say "if these weren't star wars characters would i still watch this movie". for me i would say yes, so i'll go see it on opening night -- however i am a sucker for Heist movies.

I do enjoy a good heist movie, and going into it that seems to be exactly what we are getting. If nothing else I really like the dark and gritty feel they give to what I presume is Corellia

If it has a chance to do anything right it's to have a Star Wars story that doesn't include a jedi or sith as a character or to at least give them as little time as possible. Not seeing one fucking light saber gives me hope for an at least above average movie.

This.

They have a really good universe to work with, but unfortunately they have to keep going back to the Force nonsense, usually to appease Jedi-fags and other fans that expect it too much. I hope it does well, and somehow encourages them to branch out into the genre more instead of relying on Jedi/Sith + Empire/Rebellion.

It's hard to get excited for a Han Solo movie when the worst thing about it looks to be Han Solo.

Han Solo already has a back story. A big part of me feels this is/was Lucas story to tell. Anything else is just a bunch of bullshit 40 years after the fact to make a few bucks.

And I liked the Last Jedi because my wife and kids loved it. Before I could open my mouth to say what the fuck? They were raving about it. So I shut my mouth and even tell them I liked it. I think our generation is a bunch of assholes sometimes.

Some of us are assholes. Some of us pander and lie to our families. We're all just trying to make it in this crazy world.

Meh, hate on me all you want, nefags, but I enjoyed every fucking Star wars movie to this date. Prequels, sequels, new ones, they are all godd IMO. Some better than others, some worse, but all watchable and enjoyable. Sometimes you jsut have to suspend disbelief, take off your "critic" meta glasses and just watch movies like youre a kid again.

Ok but how do I know when I need to do that? Do I just wait until I realize the movie is dogshit and then playfully pretend to be in my parent's living room in 1989 again?

There's parts I can enjoy from all of the movies. There's no avoiding that a lot of Episode 1-3 (mostly 1 and 2) isn't very good. Just as there's no avoiding the huge plot issues in 8, and the lack of any coherent feel from 7 into 8.

Or this generation is a bunch of uncultured swine that accepts Kardashians and dudes with tits. Iono. Just me?

Bought the original Thrawn trilogy instead, signed first editions. Not my Han, me too, etc.

I am amazed people are soft enough in the head to give Disney more money.

Side note, I'll fuck your women for you for $125/hr (if a 7 or better), $200/hr for fair in appearance, price negotiable depending on circumstance etc (if a dog, prolly gonna hurt the wallet). must send pics first.

This video continues to be more true each and every day on this forum.
Yes, but the problem is most people think they're Skinner instead of being the man-child. Meanwhile, Jait should be reconsidering his whole marriage but will go on lying to his kids about the easter bunny for years to come.

This trailer reinforced how much I do not want to see a Han Solo back story film. I would love more stories in the Star Wars Universe...just wish they would leave the OT alone and stop fucking with the established characters and move on.

Do they? All the expanded universe shit has been decanoned. There's potential, but I don't think Star Wars has done a good job at all building their settings.

They haven't done badly on a lot of things in the genre, its just the main movies that went into the shitter. Its why I'm hoping they start to deviate and it allows for some good material.
