It was over a holographic message and did nothing, other than to show the lesser villain that the big bad means business. Solo almost knew that not having lightsabers would be a problem, so they tried to put a band-aid on and had a very popular character activate and brandish a lightsaber at the very end. Sometimes it doesnвЂ™t take an entire movie to please a Star Wars fan. I decided (in the movie theater) at that moment that Rogue One was вЂњgoodвЂќ due to the inclusion of that scene. And Rogue One (while not having a duel), gave us an incredible scene of the unstoppable man-machine Darth Vader mowing through soldiers with his fearsome powers and deadly blade work. Lightsaber action.ДЄll 9 of the Skywalker films had at least 1 lightsaber duel. But the REAL thing that makes Star Wars, Star Wars. Ships jumping into the magical realm of hyperspace. What is Star Wars known for? Some might say epic music. The third and final reason that Solo underperformed is probably the most obvious reason of all. Could they have done better? Probably not, but still, you canвЂ™t just make feelings go away. Many of the movie critics, said it just wasnвЂ™t Han Solo and I partially agree. As an actor, he is decent but not on the level of Harrison.

Therefore, it is very important to fans that his younger portrayal stacks up.ДЄlden Ehrenreich (at least to me) does not resemble Harrison, until you get a closer look and say, вЂњyeah there is a resemblanceвЂќ. His character has been hyper-analyzed by many, many creatives for the last 40 years. Harrison is legendary, and many view him as synonymous with Star Wars. The second problem Solo suffered from, was the immense challenge of filling the shoes of Harrison Ford. However, it didnвЂ™t matter in the long run. Solo has great direction, great characters, and great plot points. You could effectively skip it and still understand The Skywalker Saga. Rogue One literally opened the door for the universe we know and love, and is every bit as important as IV, V, and VII because it is completely enmeshed in the story (at least as of 2016.) Solo, while containing a better plot, is not a critical viewing. Solo was just a movie about a heist that went wrong and the origins of how Han Solo became the scoundrel that he is. The caper of the Death Star plans changed the galaxy. Solo was not a high-stakes adventure, as it didnвЂ™t affect the galaxy in the monumental way that Rogue One did. But I understand why it failed and why Rogue One is looked at as the better movie, for many reasons. Now, looking closely at these movies, I still say I prefer Solo. But you have to chalk it up to the fact that it was a first-of-its-kind experimental idea. Yes, we canвЂ™t forget that Rogue One literally had to be re-filmed due to creative bugs. And it was thought that George Lucas himself returned to the set to give a few pointers. Rumor also said that Solo had many problems with dialogue and other direction issues. It was directed by the legendary Ron Howard, but only after Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy fired the two original directors, citing вЂcreative differences.вЂ™ GEORGE LUCAS But for a Star Wars movie, the number was simply not what Disney expected. I personally loved Solo and didnвЂ™t get why it underperformed.

Disney, fearful of hemorrhaging more money, put the brakes on Number 3 and instead transitioned into TV shows on its streaming platform, Disney+. Solo premiered in 2018, and even though it was a great movie, it tanked at the box office.

And next up was the origins of Han Solo, simply titled Solo: A Star Wars Story. Due to its soaring success, the House of Mouse felt confident to produce at least 2 more standalone movies. It told the tale of how the Rebels got the plans to the Death Star that Princess Leia was able to upload to R2-D2, and put in place a chain reaction of events that we all know and love.

It was a standalone and took place in the events preceding the original 1977 movie. Rogue One was the first foray Star Wars did into a non-episodical movie.
