If they're ever going to get Star Was back on its feet again, they need to bury the last three movies deeper than The Song of the South, and hit it out of the park with the next movie.
Maybe Favreau can do it, maybe Peter Jackson could, maybe Ron Howard could do it if he had full control from the beginning instead of coming in at the last minute to try to save a train wreck. I long for the days when I thought the Ewoks were the stupidest thing I'd ever see in a Star Wars movie.
Dude, maybe you need to calm down. You seem way too interested in Star Wars. The number of responses you have to this article is a clear sign that this subject is a bit too important to you.
There was nothing wrong with Solo. You sound just like my best friend's son. His son is a permanent college student who after years of screwing around finally decided on a film major so he can do film/TV production work. He's currently going to grad school - God forbid that he actually leave school before the age of 30 and have to get a real job. But you sound just like him. The only films he likes at all are the Marvel movies and he hates everything else on TV and on film. His comments on Solo are similar to yours and he hates all the recent Star Wars films, including the excellent Rogue One (he hates that one most of all). I'm sure that just like him you go into any non-Marvel movie looking for reasons to hate it and then making sure that self-fulfilling prophecy happens.
