Solo [Official Info] Ron Howard to Finish Han Solo film

I wonder if the retained weird designs are wholly from the minds of the concept art / design team, and merely hand-picked by L&M to be included in the film, as opposed to L&M coming up with some of the weird designs themselves and having the art team polish them. George would periodically go into the art department and basically go shopping for designs to put in his films. George would also describe what he had in mind, and the art team would interpret his vision. It could take a few tries until the team achieved what was in his head. I'm curious to find out if L&M had original designs, and if any of those are retained. Also, I wonder if there was enough time for Howard to add designs from the concept art collection that he felt were missing from the scheduled reshoots.

 

You know how when some kid pees his pants on the first day of elementary school, and his classmates still remind him about it at high school graduation?

That's like this

 

I like maybe two of the movies on that list.

Wow... you went all the way to pee pee boy. That hurts man.

 

The most important part of that list: his recent output.

2016 Inferno
2016 The Beatles: Eight Days a Week - The Touring Years (Documentary)
2015 In the Heart of the Sea
2013 Rush
2011 The Dilemma
2009 Angels & Demons
2008 Frost/Nixon
2006 The Da Vinci Code
2005 Cinderella Man

None of which are good movies, IMO. And out of his rest, I think Apollo 13 is the only very good one. Can’t stand the melodramatic mediocrity that is A Beautiful Mind, for example, and am still baffled by its Oscar success.

Yup. Basically, you pissed yourself in August 2017 and we will never forget.

 

I love Apollo 13 and remember enjoying Night Shift, Splash, Cocoon, Parenthood and Backdraft. But I haven't seen anything since Ransom, including A Beautiful Mind. I just can't be bothered. But I still trust Howard to deliver a great film with Solo.

 

I like almost everyone of the Films listed although I never saw Night Shift, Gung Ho, The Paper, Frost/Nixon, or The Dilemma, The rest are really good the Beatles Documentary Is an Instant classic for anyone who loves the Beatles! The Beatles Documentary could easily win some kind of an Oscar or at least be Nominated. Willow, and Apollo 13 are easily my favorite on the list but there all good IMHO Willow could be some kind of Star Wars planet and I love that Warwick Davis Is the star of It! Besides Wicket The Ewok and His Harry Potter roles Willow was Warwick's best!

I am wondering If Ron Howard re filmed most if not All of the Film. It appeared Ronny did all Studio Filming. Did they save some of the Out Door Action Lord and Miller scenes? or Did Ron Howard do some Out Door shooting as well?

 

I don't believe Howard did any outdoor location shooting. So I very much hope the footage L&M shot on-location makes it into the film. Would be a huge shame if not, and detrimental to the look of the film, IMO.

 

I love Rush, I think it is fantastic, very humorous in the right places, and dark in the bad part of the story bits. He did a remarkable job to capture the look of the 1970s in that film as well.

 

The way I see it, Star Wars movies are formulaic, but not slick. There’s a weirdness to them that keeps them memorable.

Howard’s movies are formulaic and slick. There’s a pervasive conventionality to them that makes them deeply unmemorable.

Which is why I hope some of L&M’s wacky style shines through the Howard crust.

 

Pre-judging it heavily based on Howards previous films whilst thinking L&M's bits will jump out and save the day may just lead to disappointment.

 

No. Probably the opposite, as my expectations are quite low.

 

I think Judging a Film by the standards of the Film Makers previous films Is fair to do which Is why I am hopeful For Solo! Also Disney's Star Wars track record, Everything they have touched Star Wars has been gold!

 

Loved, loved Rush.
Heart of the Sea is... well, it's interesting. It's just more downbeat than I went in expecting.

The Da Vinci movies... really Ron. Why you making them?

 

I thought the first Da Vinci Code was really Good although the book was better the movie was really good! The Da Vinci Code movie had a definite Indiana Jones Feel to it!

 

[Looks at watch] Is it nearly August 2017??

 

My brother and I commented way back that Howard loves 1-word titles. Now we got Solo. The Red Cup was too long, I guess.

I don’t know where I heard it today, but I heard RH nearly reshot the entire movie.

Well, I just found these.

Edit

 

Are you sure that Ron didn't do any on-location Shooting? I didn't think about the logistics of going back to those Locations again; but I assumed that Ron would be able to go back, and Shoot more Scenes there. If this is true, it has me a little worried.

 

Edit: about the triple Posts. I am having a little difficulty here.

 

I'd say mine is Lawrence Kasdan presents Solo: A Star Wars Story, directed by Ron Howard.
