He does have the pose right anyway. Empire is also Solo cover this month.

I was suckered into buying Empire in Tesco today, when I saw the "proper" Han Solo, and it said Han Solo Encylopedia, I picked it up and saw it was Empire with the extra Han Solo supplement, so it fell into my trolley with the regular shopping :)

General Maximus - I think it was Total Film had some cover of ppl in lycra/spandex, and an extra booklet about some fairy tale super hero nonsense :)

it would be amazing to walk round a proper internal millennium falcon. It feels so real when they do things like that rather than just constructing individual section on a film set and editing it to make it look like they are continuous.

I was thinking about that the other day. I thought it was weird that Dead Pool and Jurassic Park were up but not Solo

Oh dear you have got to laugh. I have just had a look and they are doing a midnight premiere for it and they are expecting it to be reasonably big because it is in 5 screens.

Why have you to laugh?

It's Star Wars. Of course it will be big.

What makes you think that it won't be that big General?

I thought there was a general lack of interest in it due to the production delays and all the problems they have been having. I didn't think the proper adult fans were interested and the only people that would go are the young children who want to see laser gun fights and flying space ship battles.

That's a poor assumption to make.

Of course there is a big buzz about the film. It's Star Wars. Adults and kids alike are interested. Adults mainly for the characters of Han, Chewie and Lando. As well as the Falcon.

It may not be a huge movie like the main films or Rogue One, but there really is a massive interest.

General I really don't understand why you want it to be a flop now?

loads of ppl like romantic comedies, I have no interest in them whatsoever, so I don't watch them I don't read posts about them, or comment on them, and doesn't bother me if the new one coming out is good or not.

Surely you should be hoping that you're wrong? I know I am. I want it to be great, no one gains anything by it being bad, the film has had it's issues, but I'm pretty sure no one has gone out of the way to make a bad film, it's just had a few bad decision made along the way which most ppl are hoping they've put right. It's going to make a lot of money, but it will make even more if it's better than ppl are expecting, like Rogue One.

I didn't enjoy Last Jedi, but I want to give this a chance.

At the end of the day, I'd much rather watch a film, and enjoy it when I didn't think I would, rather than being able to go, "ha, I was right, you were wrong, it was rubbish, we've both wasted some time and money on that"

part of me thinks you'll see it in secret, and not tell us that you enjoyed it ;)

Well l am a proper adult fan and l certainly intend to see it plus some of my family intend to see it as well and if our household is a barometer of many households then its going to take a fair wrack at the box office IMO.
