As much as I've been seeing a bunch of net news casters vomit their thoughts on it out onto all of us, I'm going to try thinking for myself on the matter instead of just hearing out their views alone...
It's an average as pie movie, nothing hyperbolic about it, there's no atrocious terrible parts to any of the film. If you're a little newborn child, you probably will end up having a blast with it...
Like I said, I went to tons TONS of movies as a kid that I had a fun time with and that's what was important to me, shrugs, don't go at length online making videos about those movies do I?
I think Solo is exactly what disney intended it to be and it's as meaningless and pointless as rogue one at the end of the day... moving on?
Could it have been more? Sure... I think Lord and Miller will get the last laugh here. The movie they wanted to make, probably would have sparked interest in people checking out this space-ballsy type of star wars spinoff....
Sadly Disney got scared of people rejecting that approach and decided to hamper their version, and instead we have people rejecting the version they ended up making.
Obvoiusly all that's happened to Solo at the BO is due to them changing captains of the ship mid journey... It just doesn't work that way. You don't just change to a new crew unfamiliar with the ship ala star trek tmp. Mistakes will eventually happen.
Lord and Miller will probably feel more at ease now that they know the movie as scripted has been released and nobody's going crazy for it.
I certainly feel glad they didn't take my request to audition for Lando and I ended up not participating in this first ever star wars movie bomb. For all eternity Donald Glover will be known as the person to play Lando in the one star wars film that bombed... Good.
As of right now, I have checked out and glanced Deadpool and Infinity war and they're like actual films compared to the quickie cartoon short that is Solo... holy crap... Far superior from every angle, it's insane... That's why people are choosing to throw money at those movies, not the light beer star wars fan movie that doesn't matter, doesn't re-invent star wars or try anything special. It's a videogame cut scene, the movie... LOL. Damn...
How do I feel towards Ron Howard.... bro gonna take the blame for this, and maybe he shouldn't have attached himself to this movie so willingly.... He had nothing to do with it. He's just the guy they wanted to stamp the director's name and credit title onto so legally Miller and Lord couldn't argue they deserve and further rights to the film.
That's it. He was a puppet the whole time. He put in his brother, but beyond that, he shot the script word for word and did what he was told, didn't make waves... He's not to blame for this thing being what it is.
I hope this sends a message over all. YOU are the Empire now. Star wars is about being humble, fighting for what's right, and not living under the tyranical rule of a dictator. So it's ironic as balls that Disney's running Star Wars like the Empire, destroying rebellious director's visions, trying to turn it into a quick dirty buck like they've done with almost everything... Not how you should do Star Wars of all things... Suppressing and squashing out discenting opinion and hiring compliant puppet directors like this...
I think Lord and Miller felt secure after shooting so much of the movie and just getting a few memos now and again from Iger and Kennedy.... they thought, well, what can you do, you can reshoot all this stuff can you? F off it's our movie to make...
Boned... Pissed off Emperor Mickey and the hammer was swift and final.
I'd love to see what they think about the movie flaking out at the box office like it has... They must be laughing their butts off...
Oh well, eh... I'm not particularly glad about any of this and Disney needs to just stop playing Empire and stop second guessing themselves and let these movies happen more freely if they want people to still show up. If it hasn't already, people are beginning to get the message that they're paying money for glorified fan films, nothing more....
