This has nothing to do with Solo or its cast. Its due to the fact that The Last Jedi fucking sucked, and it made people realize the Force Awakens sucked too.

Date: May 26th, 2018 4:03 PM Author: opaque becky I think they understand this. You just have to look at like the DC Universe. Batman Begins made a decent chunk of change but was a great movie, so Dark Knight made huge money and Dark Knight Rises even more so. Man of Steel sucked and every movie in that chain since has made less money. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3987114&forum_id=2#36132474) |

|
Date: May 26th, 2018 4:10 PM Author: opaque becky That's my point. These movies are essentially commercials for the next movies. So Man of Steel makes some money, they lose audience for the Bamtan movie, lose more audience for the Justice League movie, etc.
Meanwhile Marvel makes decent movies to wear now "Ant Man 2" is going to make $500 million. |

Solo turned out to be a great movie, but I only watched it because I got free tickets. I had no intention of paying after the abomination that was the Last Jedi. |

Date: May 27th, 2018 5:45 PM Author: flatulent spectacular headpube Lets not get carried away. It wasn’t a great movie, just wasnt as obviously bad as the last one.
No one is going to think about this movie ever again in three months. |

Date: May 27th, 2018 5:57 PM Author: slippery naked locus idiot The problem is we didn’t need a Solo movie. His character was pretty fleshed put. Bringing all his backstories to life only cheapens them.
Would’ve wanted to see one about lando or one just focused on empire taking over a bunch of worlds before this |

Rogue One wasn't perfect, but it was a good idea to start with a fresh slate of characters. The original SW characters were iconic, but they really weren't deep enough to merit more stories |
