This movie isn't necessary to the canon, however, has the potential to payout and entertaining storyline if we care to wait for forthcoming sequels. People \u201criding\u2019 Solo for the all wrong reasons. Solo is not a bad film, only unnecessary to the storyline we already know exists of the infamous Hans Solo of the first trilogy. Han has redeemable qualities and that just does not work for a scoundrel. This is a lawless land. Let us witness its lawlessness. Go raw. Go dark. Surprise the audience with a captivating story of a criminal who is a criminal. Rogue One is a far better film than Solo. The mission was to take down the Destroyer by any means necessary. The stakes were such that no one would survive. There was an ending to that tale, whereas, with Solo there is more to beget. The story continues without fulfilling a need to expose Solo for who he and not what he became after his adventures with the Skywalkers. Solo as a summer tentpole movie: meant to entertain. There just isn\u2019t much importance to this film in relation to the current Star Wars Saga, however, if my theory suggests then maybe this explains the origins of a newly birthed Star Wars legend. Is there still such a thing as a summer tentpole with one studio dominating the market. Disney has a gambit of films debuting this summer. Every other studio fails in its comparison. Investing in preexisting titles and not taking a chance on original not-so-sure-shots drys the well dampened by only one studio entity, Disney. Early May and April are too early for summer releases. Summer movies start early, in April. June is the true beginnings of the Summer film season. Actually, it\u2019s always been Memorial Day. Here are my expectations and movies I look forward to watching this summer. Scoop du Jour: The Preordain Clapback. Why you should always have a plan of retaliation in social media beef.
