    Neither does Disney lol

    Seems like a combination of a large number of TV projects, Solo not doing as well as they hoped, and the movie format seeming more like a gamble with the quality they have been putting out.

      “Why won’t anyone go to the movies anymore?”

      “I don’t know! We jacked up the ticket and concession prices so high that it costs $30-$50 to see a movie, the floors are always sticky, and assholes always talk and check their phones through the whole film. what’s not to love? and since we only greenlight films that cost $300M+ to make, we have to consider them automatic failures if they don’t make $1B at the box office opening weekend! (which we still declare a loss due to embezzling/“Hollywood accounting”)”

      “obviously! how else will I buy by 100th country estate? let’s jack up streaming subscription prices, crack down on piracy, monetize actor images with AI, and refuse to pay our writers a decent wage. what are they gonna do, strike? hahaha!”

    That’s too bad, I like Donald Glover and enjoyed Han Solo for what it was

    • He was a great Lando, second to Billy dee but still.

      He needed more room, could have had a lot of fun with it but the whole Solo was clearly trying to rush the origin story forward.

    it should be shit canned.

    they really need to lay off this nonsense and focus on a few good shows with compelling characters outside of the classic trilogy. like Andor. the emphasis should be about world-building, not nonsensical nostalgia cash grabs like the last trilogy was.
