Solo - New trailer page six

[Elk101]

It'll be interesting to see if they try and explain the whole Kessel Run - parsecs thing.

[mcfonz]

Scurv, the point isn't that people are not to have their say, but they have had it and are repeating it over and over.

It's unwarranted and Mason is correct, it's really not that big a deal.

I think it's fair to say that most people have already been able to see that you think the franchise is "a flogged horse" - that was before your latest post. And that's the point.

To change a mood a little..

I thing Rogue one is best thing ever done in Star Wars franchise.
And I am waiting for Solo even reading all of the negative anticipations.
Fringe starship crews are just my thing  maybe (I believe Ive tried* to watch every tv series with starship crews made in the world  )
While I don't expect it to be Firefly quality, let be honest - event Serenity wasn't Firefly quality.

But I expect to have a lot of fun there. Even wooden actors can be cool sometimes ( remember Vin Disell!


*And failed with some... but I tried - I am desperate for this genre

[OSHIROmodels]

Yeah 

I think I do prefer the films that tend to be ‘light’ in the Force (no pun intended).

Plenty of inspiration though. Even the Last Jedi has inspiration for gaming 

[AWu]

Whole force thing is so easy to use and essential to star wars "thing" that IMHO it make movies sloppy scenariowise.
Why bother when we can have force.. and then X because of force.. and so on..
Less force the better for a story.

[OSHIROmodels]

Well, there’ll be no hokey religions in this one 

I am wondering if there will be a space battle in a similar vein to the other films or whether it’s going to be low key. I suspect the latter.

[Knightofspades]

now now, they CAN hit the side of a sandcrawler..........in good light at close range........

Well if they were inside the sandcrawler maybe..
And nobody opened a window..

[Elbows]

Personally, I'm...in.

The trailer has a lot of great visuals, though I can see it being really hampered with the two main actors/actresses both being really poor at their job.  Those alone could seriously tank it.  I approve that it's being touted as a heist movie - that's always a plus.  I do think this could have been a real break-out role for a better younger actor and there are plenty around who have some acting chops.

I vastly approve of the more Rogue One feel to the trailer (a movie which outshined both the latest "saga" movies).  I'll see it, but my guess is it'll sit beneath Rogue One and well above most of the other films.

[Dr. Zombie]

There is something magic about that song. Everything gets cooler with that playing.

[AWu]

I agree that everything is better with Sabotage

But that trailer is just meant for it..

Seriously, now I am waiting for Solo with breathless anticipation ;P

[rumacara]

Good or bad, i´m sure the movie will bring us lots of ideas.
Bring Solo and anything else you have...

"I HAVE A BAD FEELING ABOUT THIS..."

[YPU]

Surprising what a change of music can do...

Now all of a sudden I find myself excited by it!

Only now heard this, man that's great! 

[Hrothgar]

I am not certain how much to expect from this film, but I will certainly see it. I loved Rogue One much more than I expected I would, so I do hold out some hope for Solo.

What galls me is Disney's scaling back of its toy offerings for the new films, especially for Rogue One and The Last Jedi, especially regarding the series useful for war gaming. After a brief return, the SW: Micro Machines line appears to be cancelled, the Titanium vehicle series has gone the same way. The Hot Wheels series is still around, but its offerings for these films have been underwhelming to non-existent. No Hammerhead corvettes or other Rebel capital ships from Scarif? No Raddus flagship or First Order flagship from TLJ? No new Star Wars Risk-themed offerings? Come on, Disney! Big kids needs those toys, dammit! 

Seriously, regardless of whether I personally enjoy the film, I hope we get some good toys out of it! Would love to see GF9 do a Star Wars: Solo reskin of their excellent Firefly board game...

In my dreams. Sigh.

[OSHIROmodels]

I did see some TLJ toys in the pound shop the other day. There were two x-wings, an a-wing, Ren’s tie fighter, a normal tie fighter, the falcon (of course) and the resistance bomber (which is an excellent design but woefully misused).

I didn't pick any up though as they don't fit with the scales I like to game with.

I hope they bring out some of the speeders though from Solo as they look very generic and useful.

This must be a first - a complaint that there's not enough toy tie-ins with Star Wars 

Would love to see GF9 do a Star Wars: Solo reskin of their excellent Firefly board game...

Yeah, this would be, I suggest, unlikely as Fantasy Flight/Asmodee have the SW licence sewn up pretty tight and are getting really good use from it.

I pre ordered the Brigands and Browncoats game (will post some sort of review once I've played it a few more times) but am still mildly surprised it doesn't some how work in conjunction with the other GF9 Firefly game.
