       Solo - a Star Wars story teaser trailer

       Thoughts anyone?
       I have low expectations on this one after Rogue One which I
       think will be difficult to top.  Some of the images in the
       trailer looked good and the brand, spankin new Falcon was cool,
       but I'm only cautiously optimistic at this point.  :D

       I haven't seen it yet. I'll have to check it out on YouTube
       today. I'm glad to hear someone liked Rogue One! I think there's
       a good chance it will end up being the only Star Wars movie I
       only see once. ;) I don't think it was bad, per se, but I didn't
       terribly enjoy it either and wouldn't want to sit through it
       again. I have high hopes for Solo, though. There's really no
       excuse for this movie not to be awesome.

       Don't get me wrong, I had some serious issues with Rogue One
       not the least of which was trying to shoehorn in too much to
       connect with Episode IV.  CGI Leia was a bit too much.  I think
       they could have ended that part with her saying what she said
       with her back turned to the screen - everyone would have gotten
       the point and most would be less creeped out. :)
       There were also a few other things like AT-ATs on mushy sand as
       the Empire's main defense of a comm outpost (but the images were
       stunning), but for the most part I enjoyed it.

       While RO had a couple issues, I absolutely loved it. In fact I
       saw it 6 times in the theater. It's probably my second favorite
       Sw Movie out of all of them, and yes I enjoyed the prequels.
       Solo looks great so far. I just hope they don't go to far away
       from the (legends) origin story. I expect some new twists but
       let's not go crazy.
       Loved see Lando in that teaser.

       Okay, saw the trailer finally, and I gotta say I'm a bit
       underwhelmed. Honestly, if it wasn't Star Wars, and if it didn't
       have space ships, I don't know that I'd even be interested in
       this movie right now. But it was the first teaser, so there's
       still hope! I didn't think Wonder Woman looked at all promising
       until the third trailer, and I really enjoyed that movie.
       I really don't think there's any excuse for a movie about the
       early days of Han Solo to be anything but awesome. I really hope
       we get the scene where he wins the Falcon from Lando in a Sabbac
       game. :D

       There’s a second trailer now and it’s better. Gives a little
       more of Solo’s background.
       Looks like he and Lando will be part of the Falcon’s crew
       together. Not what I was expecting.  Like I said, I’m only
       cautiously optimistic.  ::)

       Oh cool, I'll have to check out the second trailer. The first
       one didn't give us much to go on.

       Well, I know I drank the SW Kool-Aid ages ago, but I loved the
       trailer for Solo, and not surprisingly enjoyed the heck out of
       Rogue One.

       Yeah, the second trailer did it for me.  A bit more detail and
       little more insight into where they're going plot-wise.  I get
       excited for any new Star Wars stuff because there are very
       creative people making some really cool stuff these days.  I
       just hope they will use the connective tissue from the original
       trilogy and not make the characters more than what they are.
       I love that Han will be kicked out of the Imperial navy for
       having an open mind. I love that Lando will be in the story, but
       if the "that was a long time ago, I'm sure he's forgotten about
       that" line from Empire is explained cheaply then I might have to
       say a few words.  ;D

       I will give it the benefit of the doubt but I thought the guy
       they cast as Solo was lacking big time. It will be really hard
       for me to get over that fact alone  :(
