Liking the look of it so far. For a teaser it got me interested, especially that shot of the Star Destroyer coming through that storm. Awesome visual. But then Star Wars has never had a problem with visuals.;)

I'm already completely done with every single person in the world who has an opinion on this film. <_<

I know this must have been said already, but... why? Was anyone really clamoring for a Han Solo movie? I sure wasn't.

But then again, I wasn't clamoring for a Star Wars, yet here we are, so... eh. Maybe another trailer will make it look more interesting.

Opinions are fine, it's whether or not you're swayed by them. Strongly for, or strongly against, any major property based on a trailer (or in this case, trailer for the trailer :lol:) is a risky proposition. 

Personally I liked the teaser, but regardless I'll be there opening weekend because I'm interested in seeing the movie.

I still think they should have chosen Anthony Ingruber to play young Han Solo.

Had to Google that guy, he sure does look like a young Harrison Ford.

-b.

Wow that trailer was horrible.

I bet most of RLM's terrible movie ideas make it into the actual film.

It actually doesn't look all that bad, I'm still probably going to skip seeing it at the theater but my expectations are a little higher than non existent.

looks interesting...hopefully the vehicle/ship designs are pleasing! 

at this point solo looks a bit un-scruffy/teenager-y for my taste, but am sure disney knows the target demografic..

ending fly-through is wetting the appetite! will catch this in the cinema...

Couldn't agree more. That being said I'm going to give this other fellow a chance, just because I think it's bad form to poo-poo on a movie before I actually see it. I would like to say this about the new trailer, though: judging from the immaculate condition of the Falcon's corridors, I must rightfully conclude than Han and Chewie are absolute slobs! :p

Aren't you a little short to play Chewbacca?  Sorry, couldn't resist.

Looks good to me, the voice of Solo is off but we see so little of the actors it is hard to say if that is a problem or not.

I'm still on board. The "We're all fine" quip was fun, and it was a nice nod to Ford's ad lib detention bloc delivery in A New Hope. Honestly, even though Alden Ehrenreich is clearly not a young Harrison Ford, his look as a young Han Solo doesn't bother me.

What I'm really curious about is how they will set up Woody Harrelson's character and everything with the Falcon. I'm also excited to see a full compliment of people/aliens manning the ship like in Return of the Jedi when Lando was back at the helm. That's something I've missed with the new sequels TFA and TLJ.

It may not be the Falcon. Another SSM member floated the idea that this is just a different freighter, but that it was the one that caught Lando and Han 's eye.

This is part of the weirdness they've introduced by nixing the known EU canon really.. I want to say it's entirely possible, since the ships were supposed to be from a common production line that had a lot of customizable options, and were very popular with light traders and smugglers.. but I have no idea what the history of the design is supposed to be anymore. :wacko: 

The part that throws me is that for years, the front mandibles of the ship were always labeled with some cargo loading/unloading/grasping function.  Removing those changes the the ship both aesthetically and from a practical perspective.. since.. I mean, if you're not using the centerline for a cargo-related function.. why is the cockpit offset?

Reminds me of the Otana from the X-Wing: Alliance game. I truly loved that ship.

Perplexing to me is that didn't we briefly see the Falcon in ROTS? Didn't George claim that it was the "actual" Falcon and not just another YT-1300? It had its mandibles then...
