Star Wars: A Donald Glover Story

 

[wandering]

The movie about the Rancor Jabba kept in his palace is going to win an Oscar.

 

[Nightfall]

Han's Solo Story

 

[AcademicSaucer]

Do we know the actor that is playing Han Solo?

 

[WadiumArcadium]

Do we know the actor that is playing Han Solo?

It's Alden Ehrenreich.

 

[Nexus Zero]

What else were they gonna call it?

if I SHOT FIRST

 

[Chuckie]

It's Alden Ehrenreich.

That name sounds like he is the lieutenant of the Red Skull.

 

[Blobbers]

very disappointed with the naming convention for this new set of SW movies

The Force Awakens -> A Hope of Rey
Rogue One -> Rebels
Han Solo -> One Rogue
Obi Wan Kenobi -> Good Ole Ben

 

[Auto-Reply]

Is this based on a real story?

 

[WadiumArcadium]

Is this based on a real story?

From a certain point of view.

 

[TheSecondSpitter]

That name sounds like he is the lieutenant of the Red Skull.

If that twere so simple.

 

[Polk]

The Obi Wan movie is totally going to be Kenobi: A Star Wars Story, isn't it...

From Obi to Kenobi.

 

[Bishop89]

Damn, I was gunning for

 

[McBradders]

It should have been pulpy like the Indiana Jones movie titles.

Like, holy shit, nobody is going to mistake it for not a Star Wars movie if it didn't have Star Wars somewhere in the title.

Han Solo at Stars End, while nothing to do with this movie, is a fucking great, super pulpy title for a Han Solo adventure

 

[Lionel Mandrake]

I'm seeing conflicting reports.

 

[hateradio]

Imagine if other franchises did this for their spin-offs:

Hobbit: A Lord of the Rings Story
Fantastic Beasts: A Harry Potter Story
Revengeance: A Metal Gear Story
Ellie, We Really Are: A Last of Us Story

Lightning Returns:

Holy shit!

Thanos was that one thing missing from Star Wars.

Instead preorder.

The Kessel Runs - A Parsnip Curry.

Han Solo: A "We Should Have Made A Lando Movie Instead" Story

But we have to know how he got his ship.

Spoiler

Please don't be about this.

Han Solo film name leaked: "Han Solo"

The Kessel Runs - A Parsnip Curry.

Gone in 12 Parsecs

 

[stan423321]

I don't know what I expected. Something along the lines of "Solo Swindle", I guess. The Star Wars Story branding is absolutely predictable and not in a terrible way, though.

 

[CS_Dan]

But we have to know how he got his ship.

Spoiler

Please don't be about this.

I have bad news for you.

 

[Unit 33]

How Han got that scar on his chin, won the Falcon, befriended Chewbacca, navigated the Kessel Run, got his DL44 and earned that stripe on his trousers: A Star Wars Story

 

[scoobs]

Eagerly anticipating the RLM's Nerd Crew response pod to this megaton.

 

[WadiumArcadium]

Well the logo definitely isn't real even if the title is.

It's from a 2015 Deviant Art post.

 

[clockworkinyou]

lost my office pool for - Solo: Party of Three

 

[SeppOCE]

The Obi Wan movie is totally going to be Kenobi: A Star Wars Story, isn't it...

Thats actually a cool title though. Kinda like Logan.

 

[Donos]

I'm seeing conflicting reports.

Well, it's set now that the OT will be "Lil' Han: Flying Solo |OT|".

Fight me !

 

[Nictel]

Here is my shortlist:

• Smuggler's in Space!
• A man, his furball and a piece of junk
• The Falcon of the Millennium
• Star Wars: Without the Force
• Chewie where is my ship?!
• The one where Vader really isn't in
• Flying Solo
• Han Solo: I shot first
• Star Wars: Lost in Wookiee

 

[Drencrom]

Thanks a lot for spoiling the title and the Thanos cameo OP

 

[Sapiens]

Did anyone assume it was going to be called anything else?

This is a pure fan pleasing enterprise. Don't expect anything too risky.

What exactly is a risky Star Wars movie?

 

[SpaceWolf]

This is a pure fan pleasing enterprise.

What the fuck does this even mean?

 

[demosthenes]

If that twere so simple.

Quality post.

There you go

 

[Falchion]

I guess all these non-mainline movies are going to have the 'A Star Wars Story' tag.

 

[moltonasty]

Should've been I Shot First: a Star Wars Story

 

[Gordon Shumway]

Han Solo film name leaked: "Han Solo"

GROSS!

 

[Agent_Carnage]

Can they stop it with A Star wars story?

For the Obi Wan movie I would love a simple title like Ben or something.

Well then!

 

[Soapbox Killer]

What else were they gonna call it?

Quest of the Nerd Hearder


Or



Red Cups

 

[Darth Pinche]

If that twere so simple.

If that twere so simple, tripingly.

 

[Bornstellar]

I'm more of a fan of Gone in 12 Parsecs or The Fast and the Furry.

That's damn good.gif

 

[Alex_Mexico]

It must be some dumb joke I don't get but what does Thanos have to do with Star Wars to be on the friggin thread title?

 

[Master Yoshi]

I don't care about any details in this movie, just give me more shots of the Millennium Falcon.

 

[JediMasterMatt]

If that twere so simple.

Solo - It's... complicated: A Star Wars Story

 

[Scorpion Soldier]

I don't care about any details in this movie, just give me more shots of the Millennium Falcon.

A Fury Road-esque Star Wars film where the entire film is one huge chase scene involving the Falcon? I'm in!

 

[Adam Blue]

Yes...Han and Chewie just stole the Falcon, from their previous smuggler boss who wanted the MF for themselves. They are being chased, get intercepted by the empire, fly through asteroid fields (exogorth-like sequences), stop-n-go and random locales, even getting Lando involved.

All the while Han goes from not knowing the ship to learning it due to it being his only way out from under his boss. Him and Chewie have dramatic bonding moments.

I'd also add that not only is he trying to escape, but find a woman he's been in love with and was supposed to leave this life for a while back. In the end, he doesn't find her, is heartbroken, but he finds new friends and decides to stick with being a smuggler.

I cannot wait until I can make that big grey star wars lego block. It'll be the best lego set ever.
