That's harsh. This series doesn't even come close to the absolute disaster that is the Disney trilogy of films. There's an actual cohesive overarching plot for starters, even if there are aspects that undoubtedly suck.

absolutely false
the prequels were horribly directed and poorly written obi wan is the exact opposite |

that movie perfectly executed the origin story of han solo, the only thing that was slightly off was alden's casting, which was still a very very good performance |
I really enjoyed Solo. It was a fun movie, and came closest to capturing the swashbuckling feel of the '77 original.
The backlash against Solo was, IMO, misdirected backlash over the odious Last Jedi. As people became more and more annoyed with it, they were just looking for a scapegoat, and a movie featuring a new actor playing Han was the perfect target for them. Same thing happened to The Postman, which really wasn't a bad film - but everybody still wanted to slam Costner for Waterworld, so it got unfairly blasted. It's like a guy who reaches over to pinch a woman's ass, and then she turns around and slaps the guy directly behind her who didn't even see it happen. Wrong place, wrong time. I would rank Solo above all post-80s movies except Rogue One. |
I think Disney has done a mostly exceptional job with the odious exceptions of hiring JJ Abrams and Daisy Ridley
Those two GIANT gaffes ruined the ST, but you can't say they haven't learned from their mistakes, UNLIKE the idiots who keep dicking around with Star Trek. I have high hopes for the Ashoka and Andor series. |
I didn't like Solo much the only time I saw it in theatres, but I suppose I should give it another chance at some point.

Have a feeling people aren't going to like today's episode much.

* I just found the fight on Youtube. He very obviously sacrificed himself. Also, Leia's jiggly titties: <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/8kpHK4YIwY4" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> |
Big apologies to The Spoiler Gestapo for giving away the 45 year old plot point.
