    Just saw it last night and I thought it was really good.  Especially considering it was said that 80% had to be re-shot for Ron Howard.  Usually massive re-shoots just spells disaster. 
     
    I feel like a lot of the hate comes from those "fans" who always think they know better, the armchair quarterbacks of Star Wars.  Their "head canon" and/or fan fiction was "ruined", so they get super salty and toxic.  Thankfully their hate for Solo didn't ruin my enjoyment of it.  I went in fairly agnostic about it and was pleasantly surprised.  I loved the characters, the story, the score...just everything.  My one gripe is that the Patrol Trooper didn't get more screen time, as I really like that look.

    Wanted to share some pics of the ladies of the Star Garrison and Kessel Base from Comicpalooza last weekend  
     
    Someone had an idea to do a group photo of "pinup style" costumes- started out as officers but as you can see also included some Imperial and Rebel variations, and even got Younglings involved.

    I really enjoyed Solo. I have seen it twice so far. I liked Rogue One and Solo more than TFA and TLJ. For some reason I like the "A Star Wars Story"-Movies more than I like the Prequels or the Sequels of the Skywalker Saga. I also liked Rebels more than I liked "The Colone Wars". Perhaps its because R1, Solo and Rebels are closer to the OT than the others.
     
    I think that Ron Howard and the cast did a great job. I do not mind that Han Solo and Lando Calrissian look and behave different than they did in the OT.

    I enjoyed the movie very much. The fact that there was no light saber battles in it didn't  bother me at all. The story didn't call for any. If they tried sneaking one in it would of ruined the movie.

    I was very pleasantly surprised by the quality of the film! I don't credit to the furore of 'fan' groups before a print of the film has even been released, and contrary to modern form prefer to formulate my own opinion then discuss it!  
     
    I was actually reasonably excited at the prospect of it being the first Star Wars film without a single lightsabre, as it would prove that such a story can be told and told successfully thus opening the door for a vast variety of possibilities in the future.
     
    I admit I'm at a loss for what people are looking for, what qualifies as a 'true Star Wars film' if even this doesn't.
     
    Oh, and that Imperial Army Officer gear. Gimme. Now.

    Greetings IOC,
     
    As many of you probably did, I spent my weekend trooping at a local Theater for the opening of Solo, A Star Wars Story.  Personally, I was pleasantly surprised by how good the movie was.  I enjoyed it all 3 times that I viewed it.
     
    For whatever reason, the box office didn't explode for it and the haters that suggested a boycott have declared a victory.  It saddens me that any fan of the Star Wars universe would take pleasure in the possible failure of any Star Wars film.
     
      I've been a fan since I saw the first movie in the theater in 1977.  At that time, we didn't have the instant response of the internet or more specifically, social media.  We we're all starving for anything Star Wars and felt lucky to see our favorite Star Wars Characters in any way.  Donnie and Marie, The Muppet Show and The Holiday Special are what we got and we were appreciative.  
     
    To see fans that call themselves "True fans", reveling in the low numbers at the box office is just baffling to me.  Who knows what the exact factors of the low numbers may be?  Who cares?  It is still the top of the box office this week, it's still a great movie, it was entertaining and interesting.   What do they want?  The end of Star Wars again?  I was excited when the Thrawn Trilogy breathed life back into my favorite universe, I don't want that universe to go dark again.
     
    I must say, the 501st family seems to be of the same mind on this subject.  Most of the comments from them are mostly positive.  But some of the rabid Star Wars fan groups are just beating it to death, in fact, I had to leave one of my favorites due to the negative comments.  They can't possibly think that the removal of Kathleen Kennedy will transform the movies back to their personal vision of what they want the movies to be...these are the same fanboys that came down on George Lucas and the Prequels.    
     
    I have enjoyed anything that has extended the story of the Star Wars Universe and I take it at face value, a great fantasy and interesting entertainment.  Any chance to keep the dream alive is great with me.
     
    Thanks for reading my rant, 
    Enjoy life...enjoy Star Wars!!!
     
    May the Force be with You...Always!!

    100% agree on what you said Mark. The feeling I got from several people is that they considered this movie not a ''Star Wars'' movie due to the lack of Jedi or Sith battles, no epic confrontations or morality issues... and that it was too ''small'' a narrative. 
     
    In my honest opinion it beats the prequels by several factors  And i think the movie will make it's money over it's run and SW is big enough of a franchise that it can take blows from haters and only grow stronger from it.
