Solo

Anyone else planning to see this over the Memorial Day weekend?

I am not expecting much so perhaps I will be pleasantly be surprised. Playing outlaws with hearts of gold is a tricky business. Make them too villainous and the audience loses all sympathy with them. Make them too nice and you lose the storytelling possibilities. Of course since we know how everything turns out, perhaps it doesn’t matter. The film will make several ton loads of money whatever its quality, and give obsessed Star Wars fans living in the basements of their mothers something new to fight about for the next few years.

I expressed my probable feelings for it here.

But this review makes me a bit more interested in it.

After the last three? No. I’ll pass. Han Solo wasn’t a very good choice for a solo (heh) movie anyway.

The leadership of these franchises has gone full SJW/left. Dying market, dying brand.

My boys might. They said that the new Disney era Star Wars are like a picture of a steak vs. the real thing. They look like Star Wars, but the flavor is missing.

Brilliant! Dave, tell your boys I’m stealing that.
