I don't care if the voice actor for Pluto in Mickey Mouse clubhouse ends up finishing this thing, just don't frick it up. The masses will be livid if this doesn't deliver. Solo is too big of a character to frick up the origin story.

Star Wars fans will stick through anything. They are chumps. There are probably people now that have convinced themselves the prequels were good.

From the perspective of the story on paper? no.

From the perspective of popular culture and fan favorites, absolutely.

No they won't. The fanboys will call this one of the greatest movies ever made simply because its Star Wars. The casual fans will still eat it up too simply because its Star Wars.

Deadline hears that Ron Howard has emerged as front-runner to replace Phil Lord & Christopher Miller on the untitled Han Solo Star Wars spinoff film. Disney dropped a shocker this afternoon with the announcement that the duo exited a picture that has been in production since February at London’s Pinewood Studios. This after an inability to recover from creative rifts with Lucasfilm chief Kathleen Kennedy and screenwriter Lawrence Kasdan. The latter has been mentioned as possible to step in, but I’m putting my money on Howard.

Oh God. Please don't frick this up. Please.

Yeah, I give the comic book super hero guys a hard time around here, but when it comes to Star Wars I am guilty. As you can tell from my user name, Han is my favorite character. I will be pissed if the frick up his solo movie.(no pun intended)

Were you in a coma during the Prequel era?

This movie is a stupid idea anyway. The entire mystique of the Han Solo character is that you don't know his past and don't know how much of his exploits and reputation is true and how much is complete bullshite.

This right there ^^^^

But if they must do it, they could do way worse than Ron Howard. Apparently that's what they were doing.

If Ron Howard makes it, I may actually see it.
