You know, anything goes better with a little mmmmmm Drrrrrop??, but the fact someone in the public had to do this makes me unsure of the movie.

This trailer is crap. It's all SFX, not a single plot point to convey. Haven't we all seen enough SFX for a life time of visual "EXICITEMENT!!!"? As awesomely executed as these SFX shots are, I still think plot is king and these trailers/teasers do nothing for me, no mystery, no intrigue, no world-building.

Well yeah... that's kinda the point. You do know this isn't the official trailer, right? That one's even worse.

If you're going to do a Han Solo movie without a time machine to bring back a young Harrison Ford... well, first off, just don't. It's a terrible idea.

But if you really feel a burning need to do so (like your shareholders saying how much money this will make), then this is a character piece.

The only reason to watch a Solo movie is to spend time with a character we love. The plot is pretty much irrelevant. Get him into trouble, have him meet Chewie and Lando, get the falcon, etc. and watch them get out of trouble. There's really no important story here.

But if whatisname nails young Han... no-one will care.

The fact that we're NOT seeing much of Han makes me deeply worried.

Hmmm... I can understand the intent is to drum up the hype & interest for Solo, but really, I think the PR machine is just spinning in circles and going through the motions for the paychecks. These teasers are not going to convince the hard core SW fans that the movie will be good/worthy of the SW name. Oh well, it is meant for the general public.

For as a rich universe as Star Wars, I can stomach the terrible movies. I can mental-block those because there are plenty of other mediums that can tell much better SW stories. Sadly I put ever less and less hope that the big movies can kindle the love of the property. As many of the movie-making analysis videos say, modern SFX bonanza is really more of a hindrance than complimentary to better film-making.

My main enjoyment of SW now comes from the books, comics and the model kits I build. The movies, not so much.

Yeah, the comics are pretty good. Some of the Darth Vader stories have been really excellent.

There's a constant rumour of an Obi-wan movie with Ewan McGregor. That could work, but I'd like to see it as a smaller story.

There's an excellent comic that features Obi-wan on Tatooine, and it has this great line:
"As hard as it was to become a Jedi, it was even harder to stop being one.

But I did."

That's a movie I'd like to see.

I really liked Rogue One, the plot was reasonable enough and it felt like Star Wars, but this...I don't know. Harrison Ford's portrayal of Han Solo is a really hard act to follow: the subtle mannerisms, the voice, the look, everything. Right off the bat this new actor doesn't share any of the physical characteristics of the Han Solo that we all grew up with, so it's jarring and my mind doesn't want to accept him as Han Solo.

In my opinion, someone like Anthony Ingruber should have been cast as a young Han Solo:

I can totally see him as Solo.

Agreed (except the bit about Rogue One... I didn't care for it).
