Star Wars Solo Films

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

We've already discussed Yoda.

Han and Boba Fett are the rumored next ones.

Newsarama weighs in with their 10 choices.

As I said in the other thread, Disney would fuck up a Boba Fett film worse than Roland Emmerich fucked up Godzilla. Then again, given how much Lucas already shat upon him in the prequels, whatever.

Let's not go crazy. That is the single worst film based on an existing franchise ever.

The proposed Green Lantern movie staring Jim Carey that was going to be a comedy, and in the same vein as The Mask would have been more on target than that abomination that was Godzilla.

Really? Worse than the 80s version of the Punisher?

YES.

That Godzilla film is quite possibly the worst film ever made, and easily the worst film ever based on an existing franchise.

Not even remotely a contest. Godzilla was worse.

Oh yeah? That makes Highlander II look like Godfather II.

The other articles I have read say their is a good chance he will be Solo but not in the one off movies. He will be in Episode VII.

He's in VII? The timeframe is after VI, but not quite enough for Han to die? I'd prefer new characters.

Same here. I was hoping that it would be far enough in the future that all/most original trilogy characters would have passed away.

Too many people still think you need some connection to Luke for a Star Wars movie to work.
