Solo proves Disney still really isn't done learning the Pirates of the Caribbean lesson. Jack Sparrow is only cool when the main character of your movie is actually Will Turner.

@benzaiten933 5 жыл бұрын

to be fair a lot of movies and TV series share the same problem; eccentric side characters are only so cool and mysterious because we don't see them much, know not much about them and can speculate what made them the way the are. but once they're promoted to MC, or get the same amount of screen time, they swiftly become boring because they took away what made them special in the first place.

You forgot to talk about the recruiting video in the background playing the Imperial March music during the Solo name scene. Is the Imperial March being played by the Storm Trooper band?

This recruiting video in the background changed my thoughts on this predicament so much.

The Solo writers glaze over the fact that Han trained in the Imperial Academy as a pilot (which is from the OT lore that you'd see on the back of '80s action figure packages, if anyone remembers). I also wish I'd seen Han actually training as a pilot. But the movie also makes it clear that Chewie is 190 yrs old. These instances explain the moment of them suddenly piloting the MF for me & why it's nothing like the Mary Sue Rey moment in TFA.

Han was an actual pilot, Mary Sue wasnt

@cjwrench07 4 жыл бұрын

trauko1388 Han was never a pilot previously thats the problem with his origin story. Han was a *foot soldier* while serving in the empire, and at most stole hover-cars when he was young. That’s not really confusing to learning how to fly a interstellar spacecraft. Rey at least is implied worked on the local ships as a mechanic(“that ship hasn’t flown in years”), and has knowledge of how spaceships work from her time growing up an economic slave in that recycle&repair depot. I literally learned how to properly operare multiple types and years of firetrucks, because I’m a fire equipment mechanic. Being the local mechanic solves all the problems with Rey’s knowledge of how to pilot. There is no story reason though why Han is a great pilot from day 1, except for midiclorians make him a great pilot.

We only see Rey driving the landspeeder she built herself; she says nothing about flying ships around Jakku for fun. Luke has a T-16 airspeeder shown in his garage and in the model he plays with, and he mentions flying it and shooting its laser cannon in dialogue in the film.

I have NEVER seen an aircraft mechanic fly a plane, I doubt I would ever see a spaceship one do it either... or afford to have one... Rey=Luke, yes, Luke shouldnt have been able to fly a spaceship, just like Rey shouldnt have. Rey=Han, nope... Han is a pilot, she wasnt. That is it.

@Spartan_83 5 жыл бұрын

She also got a lot of practice on a looted flight simulator. She also sneaked into it at night to practice with the controls. From the novelization of the documentary. How does a ten-year-old Anakin, a slave child, know how to pilot a jet engine chariot and later a space fighter? I'm guessing the force played a big part and Rey is one of the most powerful force users.

Regarding people not complaining about Han being able to fly: I think there are two reasons, 1 Who even watched this in theaters to complain? 2. My thoughts when watching the film - wasn't he in the naval academy for the Empire for awhile before he got kicked out for attitude? I assumed he learned to fly there as he tells the recruiter he wants to join the navy and become a pilot, though I admit I may not have paid enough attention to how quickly he got kicked out of the navy and made a trooper.

I am Team LowExpectations/SoloEntertainedMe regarding this movie. This was not the movie that I was looking for, but with a bucket of popcorn it entertained me. However, I am curious as to whether or not L3-37 was a remnant of the Lord and Miller cut which Ron Howard tried to make more sincere? Maybe that is why L3-37 scenes were simultaneously oddly funny and oddly serious.

ScreenJunkies News The reason Han's dice are so important and why Lucasfilm made a big deal about them in The Last Jedi and Solo is because in the Expanded Universe, Han uses those same dice to win the Falcon from Lando. So Han keeps them in the cockpit as a sort of trophy. Supposedly he used them in Solo as well, but I didn't see them in the final scene.

You guys missed his first flight on screen wasn't the Falcon, it was the transport after the pilot got killed during the train heist. That was also where the Life Debt came in because he saved Chewie twice during it. Also, on the train - trains haul more for less power/fuel use. That's the sole reason, just like how trains still transport far more containers of goods across the United States than trucks. Flying things is actually the least efficient way to move things between two points, so why use it when there are other options?
