I watch everything, i'm literally the opposite of you CC.

And no I didn't, but it was indeed emotional.

 

[Iceman]

At this point it seems like they're just trying to run it into the ground to spite Marvel, lol.

I guess they could do that if the new films cost next to nothing to make but otherwise they will lose more money.

 

[Marvolo]

Hell, I hope Ron Howard stays away from this. He hasn't made a truly good film since Rush, but he's above being Lucasfilm's Richard Lester.

Apparently not.

Well, I guess he can continue his downward descent into mediocrity then. As long as he keeps his Tom Hankss away from this ****show.

 

[Kane52630]

Well I hope it's Rush Ron Howard and not Inferno Ron Howard.

 

[Marvolo]

Well I hope it's Rush Ron Howard and not Inferno Ron Howard.

Yeah if its Rush Ron Howard with the resources of Disney he could turn out a really good film. If its Da Vinci Code Ron Howard with the resources of Disney it will probably be meh.

On the brightside tho, a meh Ron Howard Star Wars film will still probably be better than TPM and AOTC.

 

[Fallen Angel]

And if it's "A Beautiful Mind" Ron Howard, it comes into Oscar play. But y'all getting In The Heart of the Seas, Ron.

 

[C. Lee]

Maybe we'll get "Opie" Ron Howard.

Han walks up to Aunt Beru - Hey, Aunt Bee.....can Luke come out and play?

Aunt Beru - I'm sorry Hanny....for the hundredth time, you know you're too old and reckless to play with Luke.....but here, have a piece of pie.

And don't forget some blue milk.

even a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, everyone loves pie.

The big reveal for for the Han Solo prequel will be a young Snoke played by a hologram of Andy Griffith.

[Flint Marko]

In the heart of the sea was just so crushingly mediocre. It's not the worst thing I've ever seen but it was just so bland and unaffecting.

 

[Marvolo]

Agreed. Even worse the book and story of the Essex is so damn good. Him turning it into a boring shallow hollow film was quite the awful achievement.

 

[flickchick85]

Also it was just a distractingly ugly film, imo. As in, unpleasant to look at. I haven't been so immediately put off by a film's aesthetic since Fuqua's King Arthur.

Ha, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and X-Men: Apocalypse are airing simultaneously on HBO channels right now. Nice to be able to switch back and forth and watch the Ooze family at work.

Ron and the cinematographer wanted the film to resemble some old paintings. So they used colors that were found in those:

Its not the most appealing cinematography, but I think it was a neat idea.

 

[flickchick85]

A nice idea in theory, but absolutely hideous in execution, imo.

You dont like your films coated in mustard yellow?

You uncultured philistine.

 

[flickchick85]

I know, give me ketchup red coated films any day. Or even relish green. I'm hungry.

 

[Marvolo]

Welp, its what we expected:

More details emerge from the fallout surrounding the Han Solo movie

When Phil Lord and Christopher Miller were first hired for the Han Solo spin-off, it was expected that they would be bringing a comedic touch to the space opera, but sources told EW that the film began shifting a little further into the realm of comedy than Lucasfilm was comfortable with. The directors were also encouraging "significant improvisation" from the actors, which led to the project straying from the script by Joe and Lawrence Kasdan.

A source close to Phil Lord and Christopher Miller said, "they thought they were brought on to make a Phil and Chris movie… Sometimes they just thought the actors could do it differently." Little by little, all the improvisation and new ideas moved the film further from what Lucasfilm had envisioned, but much like ROGUE ONE, it was thought that reshoots would be able to get the film back on track.

However, Phil Lord and Christopher Miller allegedly refused to "compromise on what they saw as best for the film [and] the partnership went from strained to fractured." Lucasfilm felt as though the directors had a responsibility to tell the story as it was written, and not drift too far from what fans expect from a STAR WARS film. With neither side willing to compromise, Miller and Lord departed and production was put on hold. Cue the internet freaking out.

Im glad they left. Sounds like they went rogue and didnt give a damn about the overall franchise. We probably would have got Jump Street in space. Or some continuity breaking nonsense.

 

[flickchick85]

Me too. Now I don't need to watch.

 

[Reek]

who gives a **** about Han Solo... get this garbage out of the lounge. it has no place here. What a terrible spinoff idea.

I'm watching the NBA draft, even though I only have a cursory knowledge of who any of these players are. I'm just waiting to see what insanity the Raptors pull off this year. Draft a player because he's called the "Brazilian Kevin Durant"? Done that. It's a high bar to top.
