The Super Bowl TV Spot For Solo: A Star Wars Story Is Here!

Many fans were asking themselves why it’s taken so long for Solo: A Star Wars Story to get its first ad. But as one famous wizard once said: “A Star Wars trailer is never late, nor is it early, it arrives precisely when Disney/Lucasfilm means to.” In other words – there is always a plan. Well, wait no longer – Disney and Lucasfilm have opted to give fans a first look at the Super Bowl, with the promise of more to come tomorrow during Good Morning America.

 

 

 

 

Be sure to tune back in here tomorrow as the first official trailer arrives.

      I’m guessing Han was drafted into service as a wayward youth. He meets a mentor (Woody) who’s also not a true believer in the Empire, and they conduct a heist using their Imperial credentials and then go AWOL.

        Nah, Cw is right, this has to take place at least ten years before ANH. The falcon is brand new and, in a ANH, its used and worn and Han’s already made a name of himself in the Galaxy. This is an origin, baby and I’m digging every single second of it.

      I think they are going to keep Ehrenreich to a minimum. Simply, because no matter how much he nails the performance, it will be hard to put that across in a trailer. No matter how good his performance is, 30 seconds and a few soundbites won’t be enough to get us beyond him not being Harrison Ford.

      I think of them as Star-Wars-esque visuals. A 45 second trailer isn’t long to establish character, besides we already know him and they are teasing us rather than giving too much

            Didn’t abuse him at all. Made him a human being not a predictable superhero retreading everything he already did 30 years prior.

            BS. “Making him human” doesn’t mean making him unnecessarily grouchy and an overall waste of time. Ben Kenobi, after all his years, sure isn’t a grouch come Episode 4 — he’s heroic, inspiring, and amazing — and when he meets Luke, he’s READY for action.

            The simplicity of Star Wars is part of it’s genious. Making things unnecessarily complex so you can brag about “how bold” you are is not good writing, it’s impulsive, condescending, and immature.

            Anyone who wants to can go back to look at comments of yours from literally months before the movie’s release and recognize that all of your talking points crystallized before we’d even seen a frame of footage. You knew you were going to hate The Last Jedi, and then you hated The Last Jedi, and now you’ve spent months whining about it and claiming you were “abused.” Get a life.

            Yeah, I saw the writing on the wall before anyone. I predicted that Luke would be abused, that Rose would be a complete waste of screentime, and that Canto Bight would be horrid. I was right (UNfortunately) on all 3 counts. If the movie had been amazing, I would be celebrating right now. As for the next film, I think SOLO looks fun. It won’t be life changing, but it will be a fun roller coaster. Mark my words on that as well. I know my stuff.

            Didn’t retread? Thinking he can do something only to fail and learn yet again… isn’t retreading? Again I don’t really care for Luke one way or the other but sometimes the “enjoyed it” crowd make just as silly arguments as the “hate it” crowd.

            Thanks, PaulOrndorff. I couldn’t agree more. I enjoyed The Last Jedi, but I felt some things were unexpected (or different than I wanted them to be), but I am not the storyteller. I think it is ridiculous to suggest that I have been abused. Even at the height of my prequel anger, I didn’t feel abused. I just disagreed with choices the filmmaker made.

          • February 5, 2018 at 7:11 am
            Permalink

            Just because someone is annointed “Storyteller” doesn’t give them the right to abuse the subject matter that they have temporary jurisdiction over. Star Wars is a mantle to be UPHELD and deeply respected. Rian’s treatment of Star Wars was impulsive, condescending, and ultimately deeply damaging.

          • February 5, 2018 at 8:14 am
            Permalink

            Back to Paul’s point. Just because you disagree doesn’t mean that the subject matter was abused. You can say a lot of things about Rian, but impulsive and condescending are simply not true. Star Wars is not a mantle to be upheld. It is a dynamic, vast, story world. It can handle a lot more than you give it credit for. Again, my argument is not to say that I support everything in TLJ, but rather to say that there is room within this universe for surprise, unexpected character development, narrative turns, etc. In fact, there is still room moving forward. Many people, myself included, will not fully weigh in on TLJ until IX.

          • February 6, 2018 at 4:10 am
            Permalink

            TLJ was a resounding disappointment, even the Wall Street Journal has covered this at length. And SW *IS* a mantle to be upheld, this is not a narrative for a writer to go and “Get experimental” on. If Rian wished to be so cavalier with SW, maybe they should have given him a Cartoon Series or Comic Book to write. We have GREATER expectations and standards for the Trilogy films.

          • February 6, 2018 at 8:20 pm
            Permalink

            Again, Rian can hardly be called called cavalier. As for the ‘mantle,’ I will certainly agree that fans and especially loyal fans have expectations, but the mantle is managed by those folks who paid for that right/privilege. Like it or not, neither the fans nor the WSJ carry that responsibility. Further the ones with that responsibility do not characterize Rian the same way you do. In fact, they asked him to do more. Personally, I gave up on placing the responsibility of upholding any kind of standard with the prequels. At this place point, I watch the films specifically to see where artists take the story. If I don’t like it, so be it. The Star Wars universe is strong enough to weather a bad film (or trilogy), while also allowing for additional development of characters and stories.

          • February 5, 2018 at 9:30 am
            Permalink

            It was not. It is clear from the interviews he’s done since the film was released that Johnson thought and struggled seriously with the story, and the character beats. He was also coming to his film as a fan who cares deeply about this universe. You can disagree with his take and what he thought was interesting, but the cavalier attitude you’re attributing to him is just silly.

            My worst movie-experience as far as mishandling beloved characters was Indiana Jones & The Kingdom of The Crystal Skull. But it was just a movie, and I saw it only once. It was two hours of my life, that’s it.

            You don’t feel abused because you had a bad experience this one time at the movies. You start feeling abused when you keep replaying that bad experience over and over again in your head, keep revisiting it and mulling it over. If a movie – any movie at all – makes you even associate to abuse, you did that to yourself. You have no one else to blame.

      Strongly disagree.

      The colors, hues, and lightning don’t look anything at all like a George Lucas film.

      The benchmark being the original trilogy, which Solo doesn’t resemble in the slightest.

      We’ve got ourselves another Disney Wars film, that’s taking place in an alternate fucking universe.

        This isn’t a George Lucas film and it none of these movies ever will be. The sooner you let that sink in, the quicker you might start enjoying these movies.

        I also really hope you weren’t part of the prequel hating crowd that felt “violated” by them, cause those were George Lucas movies, even more then the OT was. And, honestly, this feels more Star Wars than TLJ.

          Ok, so I should accept that Lucas isn’t involved with the sequel trilogy/anthology series, and that it would be best if we all move on away from him and his vision of the GFFA.

          However at the same time what’s most desirable in the sequel trilogy/anthology films is for them to “feel” like Star Wars. Specifically the original trilogy, which was made by George Lucas.

          You see the problem with your logic, or should I say, the lack thereof?

            Dude, what do you expect from these movies? They will NEVER feel like they did when they first came out. They were way different for the time and brought this new feeling of adventure and wonder. You are never going to feel that same way again.

            Instead, you could rejoice for the three movies, which, by the way, GL only directed one of them, and kick back and watch our beloved galaxy far far away exapand into new territories, new and old.

            Yes, if they had their characters having dance offs or start singing or something, then it would be totally off, but so, far, the only movie to feel less like a Star Wars movie is TLJ because they tried to do something different with the story and Canto Bight, which, again wasn’t THAT far off from Star Wars, just different and a little too goofy for my taste. If they had mixed new aliens with the old ones, I have a feeling it would have felt different.

        As has been said many, many, MANY times before already – the best creative argument for doing these anthology movies at all is the opportunity to try some films that don’t fit the mould of the saga films.

            No it doesn’t. TFA looks EXACTLY like an OT SW Film. TLJ looks like “Netflix”, much lower quality. TFA actually used FILM and some of the SAME CAMERAS as the OT, so don’t even go there with me or you will get owned hard.
            Rian johnson used different cinematographers and the result is a flimsy visual that looks very “netflix” but not very big-league film.

            I don’t hate Netflix movies, I like them just fine. That said, they tend to not “look” quite as cinematic as traditional films, ala Star Wars. TLJ looks cheap. There’s no other way to put it. When you look at TFA, R1, and now SOLO, there is a distinct difference in the visual quality.

            Netflix quality film? Is that supposed to be automatically a bad thing? Are you aware that a Netflix film was just nominated for Best Cinematography (and not just at the Oscars, but at most awards). In fact, the cinematography was so good it was enough to finally allow a woman to get the nod.

            Also, it’s not an exception. Other Netflix films and shows have been lauded for their cinematography.

      In short u can label me a “TLJ hater” just to be clear, but there is nothing in this teaser which would make me dislike this movie already.
      So for me, definitely 3 strikes are not yet done, i would say 1 and 3/4 as i could enjoy TFA up to the Starkiller firing point and definitely love the Falcon chase scene – but overall im not counting ST canon for me anymore after TLJ.

      Still my plan to see a copy of the movie first is not yet changed.
      On the other hand the scenario where i run to the nearest possible screening of Solo immediately right after i see the copy is very possible when i find this movie good.

      Jesus man…

      TFA and RO are nearly masterpieces. Not just as SW movie, but cinema in general too (i think people is avoiding that the directing part of those movies are so professional). TLJ had some disappointments, yes. That makes 2 of 3 incredible movies from Disney. If Solo has disappointments (at least visually i don’t see it in this teaser), i will still think 50% of it are really really good. Sometimes we enjoy it and sometimes not. Always will be like this, SW and general films..
      And considering all superheroes movies really boring and majority of modern blockbusters so cheesy and silly, the SW Real Fans are so so lucky to get such cool installments and projects in the franchise.

      Oh, and there are really brilliant TV specials out there. Not SW of course, but others i bet there are.

    Not yet hyped, but also i dot see something that would make me dislike the movie right from the beginning. I have to take it as it is a teaser. Spotted a new TIE variant and i hope its something like training tie or something very one-purposed not a general new fighter.
    Like the twileks dancers 🙂 finally familiar aliens in a familiar role which is totally fitting in the rise of the empire era.
    Like the speeder chase scene.
    What i expect to see from the full trailer is:
    1) Falcons new nose. This was avoided in this teaser. I want to see the new design in “real life” as lego sets tend to be inaccurate.

    2) Han delivering a line onscreen and more facetime of him – its a movie about HAN why we dont see him much ?

    3) Lando delivering a line.

    4) Corellina hounds – those are a big deal in lego and could be the selling point for the sets before the movie release on force friday – im considering to buy the small speeder if the price is not high.

      RE: the new TIE. I don’t think so. Looks to me like you could make the argument that the destroyer is in front of say, a black hole? Say, one of a number of black holes in an area that makes navigation tricky? I’m placing my bet on that shot being from somewhere in act 3 is what I’m saying, so I doubt training TIE.

        Yes a training ship or a special-purpose ship. I just dot want i to bee a new regular tie variant just to have new toys – it has to have a specific purpose that we simply dont see in other movies / canon stories – that would be absolutely fine for me

    let me guess without reading , people think the trailers looks great and cant wait to see it , just like with every other film …. then when the film comes out theyll all be back to state how rubbish it is , just like every other film. …. its becoming a pattern

      Well don’t leave us in suspense – is the ‘pattern’ that LFL has found a good trailer editor?

        people suposedly disapointed by something then get excited by the next thing coming only to ne disapointed again when it isnt exactly whay they want , then get excited by the next one ……. instead of saying “the last one was crap , wont bother with this one “

    Full trailer ON, lets start pausing – who will catch more interesting thing in the backgroud 🙂
    Looks good so far. The humor after the cut with Han was fine by me – this is the kind of humor i want to see in this movie.
