have to agree, also it looks more like a video game to me, but will check it on the projector when I get home. Perhaps he fact that now we get a SW film every other day also has something to do with this (failing to properly excite some). I haven't even seen TLJ yet... and I am hardcore lifelong SW fan. ..but watched The Empire S B last night for the 8th million timeMeh. I'm having a hard time giving a toss about this. Rogue One was great but this....I mean, he's just not Han solo, is he? If they can pull it off then fair play to them but the whole idea just seems off to me.
I have a feeling the coach has his work cut out for him, as in this scene...
All joking aside, I don't think acting has ever been a factor in a StarWars movie... As long as Ron Howard hits the right fan service buttons and get's the tone right, the StarWarsFans will fall in line... He's a pro and Disney knows how to market this...
It will not do well in China, as they do not like space movies... It reminds them of Sci-Fi which is one of the least popular genres there...
