mariokarter13 "Is it prequel bad or Rian Johnson bad?" The prequels were total shite, and Rian's TLJ was utter shite too--it's like poetry, sort of they rhyme.

Due to budgetary constraints, the boots were only available in a size that would fit a mechanical metal leg.

[@BizVlogs]

Yeah it creates a huge continuity error in the original trilogy because we see Han with his boots on and it’s like how did he get those boots? It’s confusing for the audience

[@gspendlove]

I liked the scene where it shows how he got the snap for the strap that he unsnaps just before he defends himself against Greedo shooting first in ANH. That scene where Greedo shoots first was confusing to me when I first saw it, because I was wondering where he got that snap and strap for his holster. How did he know to unsnap that? Was it the Force? Now I know the shopkeeper told him to unsnap that strap that he sewed onto his holster every time he met a Rodian, because one day a Rodian would shoot at him. First.

[@Ben-fk9ey]

Yea, we didn't need to see everything associated with Han in one film. I think the only thing missing is the Wookie bowcaster.

The fact that they felt the need to explain why Han calls Chewbacca Chewy is actually insane. Nobody would be confused if we just started calling him a nickname that is a shortened version of his full name

12 Parsecs: All they have ever had to do was say Han was talking out his ass in the cantina because he was half drunk and trying to bamboozle what he thought was a couple of farmers. That's it. None of this 30 years of people making up stuff about the Maw and all that. Just "Han was lying to get money, and Obiwan could tell but didn't care because he needed a ride". This right here is the core problem with Star Wars: nerds need every single part to be real and important.

[@harryrobinson8245]

Yeah this is a problem I have with some modern sci-fi/fantasy films and tv shows. The stories should be character-driven. Instead they get bogged down by explanations of the how the tech and/or superpowers work. Throwaway lines are explained 30, 40 years later to give the geeks something to high-five about. Lol I still watch them, cuz I'm a nerd myself, but it takes me out of the movie when they start over-explaining things. Keep it simple. I can still feel and appreciate drama, conflict, and tension even if I don't know how a warp drive works.

[@wsmiles8677]

[@collinmclaren6608]

Yeah but that's too simple for sci-fi! What, you think this is a Tarantino film or something?

[@roaldhansen6568]

Well seeing as the Jedi where a monastic order, the robe was probably more a sign of giving up earthly things, then a uniform. So while it might be silly staying in uniform, at least it's a uniform also used by millions of other people across thousand of other worlds. (numbers where pulled straight out of my ass)

It's even referenced in the script. After the twelve parsecs line, there's a direction to the effect of "Obi Wan reacts to this obvious misinformation". In other words, George Lucas expected from the audience at least a basic understanding of how space works.

[@QuintessentialWalrus]

@@gladspooky9455 I hate to spoil the fun but George Lucas actually did know what a parsec was, shockingly. The original script makes it clear that Han is bullshitting because he thinks these idiots from Tatooine will be impressed by fancy-sounding words and give him money. Even in the final cut Obi-Wan gives Han a knowing look. Unfortunately, the emotional intent of the scene was too subtle for Star Wars fans and now we have decades of weird canon trying to explain why Han, known liar and swindler, was actually telling the truth while he was trying to swindle people in a bar. It's not a particularly well executed character moment, but it IS a character moment.

Regarding the bad cinematography/lighting, I feel supremely vindicated. 2 years ago, due to a bunch of morons running the projection side of my local multiplex, I watched the first 2/3 of Rogue One at half/brightness because they didn't retract the 3-D polarising filter from a previous screening. About 35 minutes into Solo I had to leave the screen to ask the usher to check whether the same has happened again. Turns out the movie was just terribly lit/graded …

[@SleepySalah]

Peanut Turner same issues in Black Panther. Loved the movie but that first action scene rescuing the kidnapped Africans was so poorly lit you could barely make out what was happening.

[@robhill2983]

I worked in post production for 16 years and watched the same thing happen repeatedly on the biggest movies: someone works hard in low paying jobs and eventually becomes a colourist. They do a decent job on a successful film and become megastars of our little world. A BIG Hollywood producer then requests them, which means they instantly become the most important person in the facility. Nobody disagrees with them. They work on the BIG Hollywood producer’s movie in their state of the art grading suite, an environment so perfectly dark that a single stray lumen sets off alarms. The movie then goes off to be reviewed by various moneymen and executives. If it’s screened in a regular theatre they get straight on the phone freaking out because they can’t see anything. What is bright enough in perfect darkness is not bright not enough in a modern theatre, what with all the ambient lighting. If they screen the movie in a controlled environment they may never notice the issue. Anyone who subsequently flags the problem is ignored because the BIG producer is happy. Not saying that’s what happened here, but it fits the profile perfectly. I worked on a movie that won multiple Oscars and was praised endlessly for its grade… a garde that a supposed genius was paid a fortune to create, and that was simply ‘turned up’ after he went on holiday. It’s a joke.

I think a Han Solo story could work better if it was framed as a bunch of people telling stories about when they met _the_ Han Solo. That way you could spread out the timeline and could have recurring characters without having to focus too much on one group.

[@caelinnis]

Actually, Lucas *did* know what a parsec was, in the original script it's much clearer that Han is simply talking out his ass to sound good and that look Old Ben makes that you closed in on is very much on purpose.

[@collectorduck9061]

I agree. It would be perfectly acceptable for Han Solo to not know what a parsec is. Like.. literally. Han is bragging about his ship, saying any old bullshit he doesn't even understand because he's just a so called scoundrel who is trying to bait an old guy and a kid who he assumes also knows nothing about space travel. Obi Wan's eyebrow raise is actually absolutely perfect in that regard. For all we know, Obi Wan knows Han is full of shit, but that kind of would guarantee them anonymity. Some low life smuggler to do a mind trick on later and have no issues with being betrayed to the empire or anything like that. I think this is also what the Solo movie got completely wrong. They wanted to show us heroic Han Solo, who we got to know through star wars. But Han's journey in SW was a story of redemption. He had lived a life as a low down rotten smuggler, caring only about himself, when infatuation with a princess he's reluctant to save and the friendship with Luke has him returning to help at the battle of Yavin despite being a scoundrel who even needs to pay off a price on his head. Han's return at Yavin is a great scene because he's not a cool guy. He's exactly what Leia describes him as. A selfish oafish brute of a man who doesn't care about anyone. In Solo he's the same Han we know from the whole damn series. A lovable "scoundrel" in name only. And like Ricardo says, it doesn't even matter if George knew. It still works just fine that way.

[@SomeRandomJackAss]

@@collectorduck9061 That's what I didn't like most about Solo: A Star Wars Story. Framing him as a hero with a heart of gold who is trying to become a low-down rotten self-serving smuggler recontextualizes his character in A New Hope. It made his surprise return at Yavin less of a redemption and more of an inevitability. He's basically been lying to himself this entire time, up until that moment when he decides to help the Rebellion. However, if they made a movie about Han just being the person Leia accused him of being from the start, it would still be a terrible movie because we would never sympathize with him and would never invest in him emotionally. You know, because he's a piece of shit human being. Ideally, what you would have to do is have the movie take place over a longer period of time and make it about Han's journey from youthful optimism to self-serving cynicism, which they kind of tried, but they focused too much on making Han the Han we all knew and loved from decades later, and killing that arc by having him still do a selfless act by the end.

I'm SO GLAD I wasn't the only person that noticed the lighting problem. Its horrid!

[@AvengerII]

To be fair, BCG, it's been a problem in films for a LONG time now. I've noticed a lot of horribly lit films over the last 30 years starting with Batman all the way back in 1989. Yes, I know the film takes place at night but half the time you couldn't make out much detail and it might as well have been shot in a closet, OR cheaper yet, they should have just NEVER exposed the film and run a soundtrack for all those minutes and seconds in otherwise pitch-black night! There was definitely better lighting in a lot of black and white films in the past. Film noir and monster films were lit better than many films have been in the post-technicolor era. I still wonder if the lighting in this last SW film wasn't intentional... Were they hiding details or what? Was Disney cheap on the production and they hoped to hide that fact? There is hope for a video release, though. They could technically adjust the contrast and lighten up the image and sharpen it at the same time. You can do that with your own TV set or Blu ray player but you really shouldn't have to. There were some bad artistic decisions taken with this film on top of the screenwriting and lapses in story logic. What I've noticed with digital projection is that films in general are darker, there's less light to them. There's something to be said for 35mm film projection. The light behind the 35mm film does help bring out the image more. The saturation/blob/image darkness issue is even worse with 3-D projection. The last 3-D films I bothered watching have always had murkiness to them and you know they're running at about half the resolution or less of the "flat" screen version of movies. I just don't bother to go to 3-D films or buy them. Not worth the extra money for an inferior image that is nothing like my depth perception anyway.

[@mikewilliams736]

It reminds me of the audio problems in the dark knight except I've never heard anyone talk about that except me.

[@AvengerII]

There do seem to be eras in film production where there are more technical errors than at other points in cinema history. There have been a lot of films in the past that had problems with the "floating boom mike" that mysteriously appeared in the movie. That problem got aggravated by the pre-widescreen TV releases of films that were shot on regular 35mm film WITHOUT anamorphic lens and later matted widescreen for theatrical release! Well, they went back to the unmatted format for those "fullscreen" VHS release and DVDs for the pre-widescreen/pre-HDTV era and released them that way on home video but the problem is that half the time crap appeared in the "fullscreen" footage that the directors NEVER wanted the audience to see -- including boom mikes! Ha ha ha ha. Now, with this "Solo" movie, I think LFL were expecting audiences to overlook technical and storytelling issues and just take it. They believed too much in the myth that if you "just label it Star Wars" people will buy it. The Star Wars toy sales for the last 3 years and complaints in the aftermath of both TFA and TLJ should have been a hint that they can't be complacent and take audiences for granted. You STILL have to produce a quality, entertaining film that fits within a universe's rules. they got too caught up in pushing agendas and didn't pay enough attention to formulating good ideas and getting a decent script finished before they went into production. The marketing was also awful in what they emphasized for this film. A lot of the preview clips and the original trailer left bad tastes in people's mouths. They pissed off too many people with the last SW movie which probably helped amplify the criticism for this new movie on top of the absolutely horrible way LucasFilm reps, Kathleen Kennedy, Jon Kasdan, and Rian Johnson have interacted with disgruntled fans on social media in the aftermath of TLJ's critical bloodbath at the hands of core Star Wars fans.

[@JG-pw5cr]

[@garrettbradford4791]

During the recruitment video witnessed by Han on the side of the lobby entrance, Darth Vader's theme can be heard playing. Does this mean his song is an actual thing that exists in the universe? I thought it was just a menacing way of introducing the character, not a literal ballad which was played through the death star's intercom.

[@DieHardAlien]

Yusuf There was an episode of STAR WARS REBELS where there was a parade dedicated to the Empire and the music playing was a different version of the Imperial March.

[@garrettbradford4791]

"Different" being the key-word here.

[@gavinmarshall2228]

It's Darth Vader's intro music that plays every time he enters a scene. There's an Imperial Marching Band that follows him everywhere he goes but they're always off-camera.

[@Scottthebassplayer98]

Well, sort of, and its not "Darth Vader's theme" more than its the Empire's theme. There is a more light hearted and upbeat version of the song that is now canonically a song in the Star Wars universe meant to be dedicated to the Empire. It is literally "The Imperial March". Solo wasn't the first time Disney established this though. The same thing happened in a parade scene for the Empire in the Star Wars Rebels Tv show. FYI: Anytime the Imperial March is playing in any of the films or shows aside from the two instances mentioned, obviously, is not meant to convey that there's a band in the background playing the theme.

The worst thing about this is you assume Han had had been on plenty of adventures over his life to end up where he is when Luke meets him, but apparently he meets Chewie, meets Lando, gets me the Falcon and does the Kessler run all in one adventure. Also gets his name and dice in this adventure too (stuff no one ever gave a shit about. Didn’t everyone just assume his surname was Solo? Nah apparently that needed its own origin story too).

And the gun has a story to. But it never explained how he can talk to chewis. The only thing that would been interesting. And they movie makes it impossible for him to know that.

[@nearlydead7510]

I think it would have been cool for both chewie and han to not be able to understand each other verbally the whole movie. so they would have to learn how to work together non-verbally, then at the end of the movie you would see them both with books in their hands, studying the other one's language.

I just noticed the Rich Evans bounty hunter in the Empire screencap. I was like, "Who the hell is that?!" I event looked up "Empire Strikes Back bounty hunters" to find out who that character is. Wow. Well done. Really well done. Also, I both love and am ashamed that I didn't realize it was photoshopped.

Yeah I raised an eyebrow when that picture popped up. Clearly we missed a Space Cop cameo in Star Wars at some point.

I'm shocked Rich loved this movie so much. Nice discussion broke out because of this tho

[@benevolentworldexploder5395]

+Alex A fact stated with some objectivity: Rich, without direct quotation, didn't mind the lighting. A subjective opinion stated seemingly as fact: Rich 's opinion is 'objectively' wrong because he didn't notice the lighting. I've heard of opinions being ethically or morally bankrupt, thus being considered "wrong", but I've never heard of an opinion being inherently wrong just because it isn't observing someone else's perceptions. I suppose that means every person who doesn't personally note of or care about lighting now also has a wrong opinion. Why? Just why?

I enjoyed this movie. It was a nice action, sci-fi adventure movie. It had its flaws but they were forgivable.

exactly

[@Greentreeanduril]

Spoilers....... Kira is going to Tattoine, with Maul and boinking Obi-Wan to produce Ray, or something equally as stupid.

[@dontlikesand1955]

Maybe Obi-Wan will impregnate Maul (who is actually a woman) to produce Rey.

[@Landofalcon007]

Still better than TLJ.

[@VadersFist95]

@@Geek_Chorus Their stupid for doing none of this? I mean its a dumb idea but they havent done this nor will they.

[@Kickerinthehead]

So did Kylo tell Rey her parents were junkers just to fuck with her brain? I kind of believed it, and that the fact she doesn't have some sort of proud lineage makes her powers a vergence of the force.

26:31 is a clean edit. Props for the artistry.
