Solo: A Star Wars Story (May 25th, 2018)

If it only does $110 million opening weekend that is a disaster- not bad for a regular movie but for SW? Wow!

Keep telling you guys the audience for this film is still in school studying for finals....

Schools end this week and next. This is not a blockbuster first weekend film. Ticket sales will remain steady over the holiday weekend, slump once more then pickup after schools let out.

Honestly I can’t understand why they released it this week.....should have this weekend...this article from last year this time...

https://www.google.com/amp/variety...end-lowest-earning-since-1999-1202447094/amp/
“This Memorial Day weekend signals a sluggish end to a dreary summer box office start. This four-day weekend’s total domestic earnings ($172.3 million) are the lowest recorded since 1999 ($142.5 million) when “Star Wars: Episode I — The Phantom Menace” opened in first place.”

The lone bright spot of this summer so far is Disney and Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” which is holding onto second place over the holiday weekend, earning an additional $25 million from 3,871 locations. Its total domestic cume stands at over $338 million, and worldwide it’s made over $788 million, passing the original “Guardians” movie ($773 million worldwide).

dis dude is a mega huge star wars nerd and even he found it boring as hell

Nah, he's a fake SW fan. He was a guest on Colider movie talk, the capital of irrational die hard we like anything SW, and he didn't know ****. It wad pure cringe. However, this movie is so bad that the Colider guys had a hard time saying it was good.

My prediction came true

Critical and financial bomb.

TPM opened with 64 million lulz

In 1999 at that too

Rogue One (Love the edited version with classic Williams music, Vader end sequence still gives me chills)

Wait... there’s a RO edit with Williams music? I gotta see that! Giachinnos (Or however you spell that) OST was the worst part of that movie, so that would just add to the enjoyment I already get out of it!

Thanks for the tip!

Or it could be the general public is getting tired.

After being bored with RO, my woman says she wont watch anymore sw flicks.

Smart woman.

Guess this is the next movie to watch. Guessing there is barely any Jedi around or at least much less force user. Guessing this is part of a greater galaxy, far, far away. But tomorrow, he will see a piece of this galaxy that is far, far, away.

I guess I should have figured people hated the cameo. I personally loved it

What about the fact they ruined the Kessel Run? He took a short cut. WTF? That’s why the Falcon is the fastest ship? Cuz of a ****ing shortcut??? Give me a ****ing break!

The cameo doesn't bug me because of the clone war series so it's a valid reason why he was included with Rebels making him set into the universe still alive. I loved it honestly it seems a bit out of place but damn did I have a smile.

So many haters

Just back from seeing the movie, it was surprisingly pretty good.... I went in thinking it was probably going to suck but after about 15-20 mins I totally believed he was Han Solo... The guy who played Lando did a great job also... Although I hated Lando's droid another jar jar character, luckily the droid only had a small part...

I'd give it solid 8/10

Worst possible excuse -- one that's been circulating since that mistake was caught in 1977.

CONFIRMED
kathleen K. Kennedy was NEVER a fan of star wars

these movies were made for her to finally enjoy Star wars and bring fans like her

Re: Solo: A Star Wars Story (May 25th, 2018)

Yep. This took the concept of Origin Stories to absurd lengths. They made a list of Solo factoids from the OT, and attempted to account for the beginning of every minute detail except for the only one relevant to the plot: How did Han become so self-absorbed? Instead, we see him resist being self-absorbed in the face of ridiculous, on the nose dialogue telling him not to trust anyone and be selfish.

TLJ was a mess, while Solo is hacky, overly structured pandering. It's as if Solo was written by a marketing team, as opposed to actual writers.

A lot of critic reviews say the same.
