Mos_Eisley Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 This sounds pretty awesome, with origin stories for Yoda and Boba Fett expected after that. If the Falcon isn't part of Episode VII, it will certainly be featured heavily in Solo's origin movie since we need to see him win it, do the Kessel Run and smuggle stuff. http://moviepilot.com/articles/1202864-disney-moving-forward-with-star-wars-origin-story-due-to-land-in-2016 Now the big question - when to unload the UCS Falcons? If they don't release another Falcon, those things could be ridiculous. Of course, if they do make anything similar, the old ones could take a big hit...

justafrog Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Han Solo (Harrison Ford) was my first official celebrity crush (I was 10 when I saw Star Wars ). I love the idea of the origin movies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huskers1236 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Since I know nothing about any stories outside of the movies, I think this would be a cool movie. I agree with some of the posters there about Bradley Cooper, he would make a pretty good Han. He has enough natural swagger like Harrison Ford did that he could pull it off. I'm sure there are others that would fill the role as well, but I don't know Hollywood that well to rattle off names of people in film and on TV.

asharerin Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 No doubt they will produce a system scale Falcon rather than UCS for the film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exciter1 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 I like the idea of a Han Solo origin movie, that could be good. I really really want them to do the Thrawn Trilogy someday. I'm holding out hope... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nolanfan34 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 The main problem with someone like Bradley Cooper is that he'll be much older than Harrison probably was when he did Star Wars. They need someone in their late teens almost. Would be great to get an unknown newcomer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at the cast of Big Bang Theory, they're almost all my age, and I graduated college 13 years ago. I don't really care who does it, just thought he'd play the part well.

nolanfan34 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Still hard to do an origin story of a young Han. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nolanfan34 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 I do concur he would be good. As long as it isn't Shia LeBouf or something. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diabolos80 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 I guess this means 7965 will be around till 2016. Still a good buy though. It's sold out most places and ebay prices are hitting $180+ already. Next year I'll have a few more stashed away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
