Why wouldn't a Han Solo stand alone be first?


The same reason they didn't bump into a pregnant Mrs Solo during the prequels. They royally fricked every aspect of the original except Han and the millennium falcon (and I can't believe George had the restraint to not throw in a scene where someone was constructing it). They had to leave something not fricked up, or there may have been riots.

Some things belong in the seventies untarnished by the greedy whore that George Lucas would later become. Han and the Falcon are such things.

but I am stating a fact.

the prequels are canon.

all the new films are going to acknowledge their existence so I don't know why you'd get butthurt over a Boba Fett movie doing the same.

I love star wars with all my heart...but I do not get the desire to see a whole movie about Boba fett. I wish they would nix this and come up with new characters

Just because it's a fact doesn't make it not shitty. If someone's mom died and you kept telling them "hey, your mom's still dead", that would be stating a fact. But maybe some times you should just shut the frick up.


fricking prequels.....

If you defend the prequels as quality movies(at least 1 and 2) then you are in serious denial

I'll bet they could get a movie exploring the back story of the Rancor keeper. The dude looks like he's got some demons and is deeply conflicted with something he's not sharing.

Okay, I had to look that up. Never knew that little guy's name.

Maybe the most racist character in Star Wars history, and that's saying a lot.

This.

I mean there's a chance, but they should be going forward, not backwards. There's a big world to explore.

No he's not

BUT

his appeal is that he's mysterious, looks cool, and though we don't get to see why, he has the respect of vader who doesn't talk down to him

A movie featuring him exclusively ruins that

To be fair the sarlac pit did spit him back out into the desert.

I thought the plan was to release a new movie every year.

Episode 7
Spinoff
Episode 8
Spin off again
Episode 9
Spinoff


The Spinoff's are rumored to be back story type movies on guys like Boba Fett or Solo.
Seems likely to me.
