Here's why I have always been really skeptical about a Han Solo standalone movie; because Han Solo didn't get popular because he's such an interesting character. He got popular because Harrison Ford MADE him an interesting character by infusing him with a particular personality. Now, we're going to be watching another actor pretending to be Harrison Ford pretending to be Han Solo. I am not optimistic.
Ron Howard narrates the whole movie Arrested Development style. Also, Han and Greedo are friends through most of the movie. To show how strong their friendship is, Han says "I will never ever shoot you unless you shoot at me first." Ron Howard says "he would." None of it feels contrived whatsoever.
Disney did destroy legends. We had six great Han Solo backstories by Brian Dailey & AC Crispin. To read in chronological order, put Rebel Dawn down for each interlude and read a Brian Dailey novel
The Witness ... The Force Awakens has not "Disney painted" a good "role father" where Han Solo is out with Chewbacca and separated from General Leia! There are many pre-EP VII questions rather than seeing who Han Solo was before ANH's "Cantina encounter!" This is where a young Han Solo movie, BEFORE LEARNING TO BE TAMED?, fails when later in life he goes back into questionable habits! If this is the argument you are trying to make!?
Having now seen the movie, I'm just amazed at how accurate the part about the cans of corn in the express lane was. . . . . . . . Real talk, I can't believe they guessed Darth Maul.
Star Wars fans: We don't want a Han Solo spinoff movie, that's pointless! Also Star Wars fans: We want an Obi-Wan spinoff movie set when he was a weird old hermit on Tatooine watching a boy grow up. ?????
Obi-Wan protected Luke while he was growing. Interesting story arcs could easily be set in motion that wouldnt conflict with the current canon. However, I dont know why star wars fans are so against a Han Solo movie. I couldnt even pretend to care whether it happens or not. But best believe Im gonna see it.
Jenny is so spot on with her Solo predictions, it's crazy... Including them watering it down in the reshoots making it boring. Jenny is such a talent, whoever at SJ didn't allow her more creative control missed a huge opportunity. Her personal YT channel is so entertaining and I highly recommend subscribing to her Patreon.
Jenny is fun to watch. Not in the way that gets boring after 30 minutes but rather the type you can watch whenever you want. The games are genuinely fun to watch and it helps make things different. Also I love her personal channel.
Phobias are fears, they are not a dislike, intolerance or general dismissal. If you're gonna be labeling crap at least get the terminologies right. Like Ethnicism being called racism. Personally I don't understand all the hate in regards to differences between peoples and cultures. Then again Humans aren't as intelligent as they proclaim to be.
yeah, flaming homosexuals sounds about right(only in movies). i mean its free country, i have right to hate whoever i want and i use that right to hate homosexuals(without actual violence )
Hopefully Lando has a big role, and they can do a spin off of a spin off with him. I love Han Solo, but Lando has that 70s effortlessly cool style and I'd love to see him. He's such a product of the 70s/early 80s I wonder if Donald Glover can pull it off.
"I'm Han Solo, and I'm gonna be the best pilot in the galaxy!" A quote from over half a year ago, but nearly identical to what young Han says in the trailer.
I've never wanted to watch these kinds of sci-fi discussions before. But Jenny has great comedic timing, asks great, fun questions, and comes out of left-field. Love it!
We all know how the young Han Solo film will end: 1977 Harrison Ford will sit down in a booth in a cantina as Chewie goes off to talk to an old man in a robe.
This is what happens when you spend all your time watching Disney movies instead of learning how the world works. You end up not knowing how corn chips are made.
After so many times of Jenny “predicting” I’m starting to think people working on it just watch her videos and steal some ideas/do others she say she would be horrible to spite her lmao
Haha. I find myself exclaiming that mentally at unexpected moments. Or chanting 'booty, booty, booty, booty, rockin' everywhere.' One of these days I'm going to say it out loud without thinking and people will edge away nervously.
DTIII Except Jenny is literally saying "people shouldn't like something I don't like" Like seriously she thinks there's gonna be a lightsaber in the Han Solo film. That's pretty dumb
Well, Rogue One actually was a trainwreck, and that's exactly what I heard people say walking out of the cinema "hurrdurr yeah man amazing last scene!".
Well, it's both Disney. But yeah you're right. Although I can't see them make an effort in creating a good movie, whatever you stick a big name on nowadays will attract heaps of praise anyway. But we'll see I guess.
Well, Han does make some snide remarks like: "Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side, kid." That means there SHALL BE a Jedi character in the Han Solo movie and no Jedi is complete without a lightsaber.
Han and Chewie obviously meet after Han goes to a party, drinks almost to the point of blacking out and ends up hooking up. The scene is Han waking up in Chewies bed trying to remember what happened the night before.
the predictions for the dumb fan service they might put in this movie will end up being scarily accurate.... i have no doubts. wouldnt be surprised to see a boba fett appearance either so they can shove his face on pez dispensers and packs of broccoli and comprise of 90% of the marketing. the other 10% will be the falcon.
They already pulled the "death of me" gag in Attack of the Clones, so I think we're safe. Also, I really hope there's not a Moment of Destiny where Han dons his black vest for the first time. Sure, to the audience it's iconic, but within the universe of the story, it's just a piece of clothing. If he wears it, that's fine, but it'll have to be pretty much incidental, without any hint of fanfare.
I wish I could subscribe to ONLY this show Like I’m not really the target demographic for most of screen junkies’ other stuff but I like this and want more
Jenny is the most charmingly awkward person ever. If her and Aubrey Plaza ever got onto a show together, it would be a ridiculously farcical log jam of stammers and long pauses.
I may be twenty-five but I still want to be Jenny when I grow up. Crafting a career around her love of film and literature and just being herself is friggin' inspiring.
They shud just go for: 'Han Solo The Musical'. And include at least one scene where Han and Chewbacca....actually Chew Tobacco. 40 yrs, and nobody has made that pun. Stone me.
I feel like there is going to be a really awkward scene in the Han Solo movie where Han Solo just happens to run into (WHAT?!?!?!?) Princess Leia, and Han Solo would be like, "Hey! ....................................... Watch where you are going!" And then it'll just be awkward for 10 seconds so that everybody could process everything, and then they just walk away from each other.
I don't think they can ruin my life with a movie. They put out five awful movies in a row and I've had a good life. 1985 Ewoks: The Battle for Endor, 1999 Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace, 2002 Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones, 2005 Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith, and 2008 Star Wars: The Clone Wars
I am glad I have been enjoying the movies. I can't imagine being angry and knowing that after making so much money, Disney isn't going to change directions to feed millennial-malcontent. I can't wait to see how all the movies play out.
why does it seem like they dont know what the audience wants? youd think after a billion years of people talking about it they would have an idea of what their fans would actually like to see.
Maybe because "the audience" isn't just you and the people who like the same stuff as you, but rather an extremely heterogeneous group of people of all ages, ethnicities, tastes, nationalities, personalities, etc.
I really, really wish this movie wasn't happening. If they could go back in time and make this movie with a young Harrison Ford I'd be all for it, but since that clearly isn't possible I have no desire to see it.

*watching this after the movie came out*
"Maybe he'll run into... Darth Maul."
*spit takes my freakin' orange juice*
It's a ridiculous idea, made real.
It's a shame they never brought this show back..
Rumor has it Jenny left to get a tan and they didn’t let her back in.
30 years later:
Finn *we'll figure it out, we'll make some corn chips*
Han *That's not how the Chips work!*
lmao nice!... Not gonna lie.. took me awhile to get the reference.
Was that a Bad Lip Reading reference?? Nice. 🤣
Jenny is at her best when she's impersonating wookies and rancors by waving her arms like a nutter and making guttural bellows.
Imagine her presidential election.
"What if Han Solo meets up with Darth Maul?" I think Jenny is psychic.
I would pay to have Jenny insult me in public
👀
It's impossible to surprise Darth Vader with a gift, because he can always feel your presents.
Unless that present is his daughter
Jenny predicted Darth Maul in Solo...
That was scary! I couldn’t even believe that she thought of that!
Here's why I have always been really skeptical about a Han Solo standalone movie; because Han Solo didn't get popular because he's such an interesting character. He got popular because Harrison Ford MADE him an interesting character by infusing him with a particular personality. Now, we're going to be watching another actor pretending to be Harrison Ford pretending to be Han Solo. I am not optimistic.

None of it feels contrived whatsoever.
I'd watch it
that would be awesome
This would be much better than what we will get.
it's gonna be the best commentary track ever
William Crow this is hands down one of my favourite ever RUclips comments 😂😂
Who asked for the Han Solo spinoff movie
Funky Monk nobody. We want obi wan
Thomas Cox yes we dooo
But that was the prequels. And they were the most disappointing thing since The Witness.
Who asked for any spinoff movie? I would have been content with no more new Star Wars at all or just Episodes VI-XI.
espeh75 No the most disappointing things since my son...
I had an abusive alcoholic father but this movie will surely destroy my childhood.
Disney did destroy legends. We had six great Han Solo backstories by Brian Dailey & AC Crispin. To read in chronological order, put Rebel Dawn down for each interlude and read a Brian Dailey novel
Joe Nesvick Which means there has already been a good young Han Solo, meaning that this movie doesn't have to be horrible.
The Witness No, that's just you're traumatised consous talking...Your abusive father did that, you need to see a psychologist.
Too dark. We need to shop this comment to make it more lively and middle of the road.
The Witness ... The Force Awakens has not "Disney painted" a good "role father" where Han Solo is out with Chewbacca and separated from General Leia! There are many pre-EP VII questions rather than seeing who Han Solo was before ANH's "Cantina encounter!"

Real talk, I can't believe they guessed Darth Maul.
"I just shot you 14 times, your dead."
Yea but this is Star Wars, how many of those bullets hit?
OMG the Darth Maul prediction killed me
Gina was a great guest, another hilarious episode, thank you!!!
Aww thank you so much, Bryan!! Very much appreciate it :-)
"Can't ruin Chewbacca" -- What?!? Have you never seen the Star Wars Holiday Special? They can ruin ANYTHING!
How many time do you think Han Solo will be called a scoundrel in the movie?
I say 15!
16, at least
Scoundrel One
Under 15 but over 5
"Can I be a role model to cool people too?" Umm no. But Jenny that's part of your appeal.
Depends on your definition of cool.
Star Wars fans: We don't want a Han Solo spinoff movie, that's pointless!
Also Star Wars fans: We want an Obi-Wan spinoff movie set when he was a weird old hermit on Tatooine watching a boy grow up.
?????
Obi-Wan protected Luke while he was growing. Interesting story arcs could easily be set in motion that wouldnt conflict with the current canon. However, I dont know why star wars fans are so against a Han Solo movie. I couldnt even pretend to care whether it happens or not. But best believe Im gonna see it.
This has a very "Space Ghost: Coast to Coast" vibe. I approve.
"I don't want to do anything racially insensitive," says Jenny, before playing Han shooting the token black character to steal his ship.
this is the most honest comment on here
Just call me Honest Jay.
Pretty sure they mention that afterwards.
Not that I heard, but I might have been too busy laughing.
See, your mind went there, while my mind was over in "but Lando is still alive later in the timeline" land.
Jenny is so spot on with her Solo predictions, it's crazy... Including them watering it down in the reshoots making it boring. Jenny is such a talent, whoever at SJ didn't allow her more creative control missed a huge opportunity. Her personal YT channel is so entertaining and I highly recommend subscribing to her Patreon.
Jenny is fun to watch. Not in the way that gets boring after 30 minutes but rather the type you can watch whenever you want. The games are genuinely fun to watch and it helps make things different. Also I love her personal channel.
I got "Ron Howard" confused with "Ron Jeremy" in my mind when Jenny mentioned him.
Ron Jeremy played Twitchy Cominhand on "Happy Sprays." Most people think he would have been better cast as Twitchy's friend, the Schlonze.
Where do they teach you to talk like this? In some Panama City "Sailor wanna hump-hump" bar
LOL, now that is hilarious!
Ron Jenny
Now THAT would be an interesting choice haha
"I think it's quite homophobic of you to say that we need more 'straight men' on the show, but..."
"You know me, Marge. I like my beer cold, my TV loud, and my homosexuals *flaaaming*."
Guy Simchony it's hateful that sraight men arent allowed
I've been general grievanced!
Phobias are fears, they are not a dislike, intolerance or general dismissal. If you're gonna be labeling crap at least get the terminologies right. Like Ethnicism being called racism.
Personally I don't understand all the hate in regards to differences between peoples and cultures. Then again Humans aren't as intelligent as they proclaim to be.
yeah, flaming homosexuals sounds about right(only in movies). i mean its free country, i have right to hate whoever i want and i use that right to hate homosexuals(without actual violence )
Jenny is absolutely perfect. I love watching her. Funny, witty, awkward and beautiful. It's super refreshing to see someone like her.
We couldn't agree more!
Holy crap! Totally predicted the Darth Maul cameo.
I rather have a lando movie than a Han solo movie. Lando is more interesting
The Lando comic certainly is more interesting
CJ alicéa Lando is still a mystery, so that could work if written and directed right.
I would prefer a Lando movie just because he's a great character that we have gotten less time with him and I want him to he explored more
And Lando's story has not been told a hundred different ways in books already like Han's has.
A Lando movie could actually bring something _new_.
Hopefully Lando has a big role, and they can do a spin off of a spin off with him. I love Han Solo, but Lando has that 70s effortlessly cool style and I'd love to see him. He's such a product of the 70s/early 80s I wonder if Donald Glover can pull it off.
Jenny owes it to herself - and frankly to me personally - to meet Aubrey Plaza.
"I'm Han Solo, and I'm gonna be the best pilot in the galaxy!" A quote from over half a year ago, but nearly identical to what young Han says in the trailer.
Solo: A Who Cares Story.
Nailed it.
You put less effort into that joke than Ron Howard put into the solo movie.
He got paid, though..
*waits for angry fanboys to backlash*
Yep. This.
I've never wanted to watch these kinds of sci-fi discussions before. But Jenny has great comedic timing, asks great, fun questions, and comes out of left-field. Love it!
You never asked BB-8 any questions.
This was too corny... as in they mentioned corn too often.
We all know how the young Han Solo film will end: 1977 Harrison Ford will sit down in a booth in a cantina as Chewie goes off to talk to an old man in a robe.
This is what happens when you spend all your time watching Disney movies instead of learning how the world works. You end up not knowing how corn chips are made.
Love the meet cute, but no grocery store has chips and canned corn in the same aisle.
Holysshiiiiitttt you called it with Maul!
How could they have predicted 90% of the movie?!!!
superb wookie acting from Jenny
"Rogue one had extensive reshoots, and it SUCKED!" **Awkward silence**
I wuv you Jenny.
omg i've been told I'M much better when you know less about me
OldThinkerTube Maybe you're a hero and just don't know it!?
You're my favorite person right now. Please tell me nothing more about yourself
“Recasting” Han Solo will be really weird for people in the future who watch these films in chronological order
The Han-Chewie first encounter at a space grocery store was hilariously terrible!
Perhaps they will reveal he has a mother or a sister called Ann Solo.
Sane Power Mother named Ann and a sister named Han-nah
hell man, you gotta love the show! gets funnier every time! the 500 lightsabers killed it for me
This video is crushingly prophetic. Nice work Jenny.
Lol, they predicted Darth Maul accurately
After so many times of Jenny “predicting” I’m starting to think people working on it just watch her videos and steal some ideas/do others she say she would be horrible to spite her lmao
I have no idea how that was so amazing and hilarious, but it was...
my face hurts from laughing so hard...
this show is so tongue in cheek and sarcastic when she deadpan answers mean comments it so meta love it!! it
Jenny is great
That darth maul comment aged well.
That inprovized bit sounded like something Justin Roiland would make up in the booth for inter dimensional cable
Glad I know his name is Han Solo because of an imperial paperwork error
I can’t believe Jenny Nicholson predicted the end of Solo
biggest takeaway: i should rewatch regular show and finish the last season
redsands1001 last season was a little disappointing but it’s still worth watching
"That was Wookie for 'was that racially motivated?' " lmaoooooo
SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jenny was spot on about Maul being in Solo. Lol
Is this the last millenial falcon episode? I only subscribed for jenny
How did they fucking nail that Darth Maul was gonna be in the film?
If they take ANYTHING from the Han Solo Trilogy from Legends it would actually be pretty rad.
Say "talk about eye candy". No one'll get it, but no one ever got it.
Haha. I find myself exclaiming that mentally at unexpected moments. Or chanting 'booty, booty, booty, booty, rockin' everywhere.' One of these days I'm going to say it out loud without thinking and people will edge away nervously.
This Gina Ippolito character is really Hugh Grant in disguise.
She guessed it darth maul man darth maul was in solo crazy.
Jenny got super real and prophetic in this one XD
Still funny in 2021. "Just get out of the building." and 'what you're still here?"
The Han movie seems like it's going to be like Disney's straight-to-DVD offering, like they always used to do for animated films.
Ron howard might put in Tom Hanks with terrible haircut into the movie.
Jenny, If the Millennial Falcon was made into a Star Wars movie, who would play you 😂😂
Katherine Parkinson or Richard Ayoade.
Or Aubrey Plaza.
"I don't want to be racially insensitive!"
*goes full LAPD*
This was hilarious! The CrossFit in space bit cracked me up. “There’s a Resistance...so it’s them exercising in front of the Resistance” lol
Savage Jenny talking about Vader's Rogue One scene lol
DTIII Except Jenny is literally saying "people shouldn't like something I don't like"
Like seriously she thinks there's gonna be a lightsaber in the Han Solo film. That's pretty dumb
Well, Rogue One actually was a trainwreck, and that's exactly what I heard people say walking out of the cinema "hurrdurr yeah man amazing last scene!".
Beppe But Rogue One has nothing to do with Han Solo or his new film. Jenny's just ragging on Rogue One for no reason at all.
Well, it's both Disney. But yeah you're right.
Although I can't see them make an effort in creating a good movie, whatever you stick a big name on nowadays will attract heaps of praise anyway.
But we'll see I guess.
Well, Han does make some snide remarks like: "Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side, kid." That means there SHALL BE a Jedi character in the Han Solo movie and no Jedi is complete without a lightsaber.
Solo: The movie NO ONE asked for
When I heard that they stopped production so that the lead actor could take acting lessons, I just thought, "please just nix the whole thing now."
Han and Chewie obviously meet after Han goes to a party, drinks almost to the point of blacking out and ends up hooking up. The scene is Han waking up in Chewies bed trying to remember what happened the night before.
Jenny you are hired for the next Christmas special.
the predictions for the dumb fan service they might put in this movie will end up being scarily accurate.... i have no doubts. wouldnt be surprised to see a boba fett appearance either so they can shove his face on pez dispensers and packs of broccoli and comprise of 90% of the marketing. the other 10% will be the falcon.
They already pulled the "death of me" gag in Attack of the Clones, so I think we're safe.
Also, I really hope there's not a Moment of Destiny where Han dons his black vest for the first time. Sure, to the audience it's iconic, but within the universe of the story, it's just a piece of clothing. If he wears it, that's fine, but it'll have to be pretty much incidental, without any hint of fanfare.
I wish I could subscribe to ONLY this show
Like I’m not really the target demographic for most of screen junkies’ other stuff but I like this and want more
I love how in a galaxy far far away people still come from Scotland, The States, England lol
Jenny is the most charmingly awkward person ever. If her and Aubrey Plaza ever got onto a show together, it would be a ridiculously farcical log jam of stammers and long pauses.
and that chewie's life debt came from han freeing him from being an imperial slave on kessel?
holy shit you predicted maul in solo
They could also ruin Han Solo by having him always do the moral and upright thing, and ignore the Han who shot first aspect of his character.
They ended up having him be a guy who tries to be moral and upright, but becomes more jaded and cynical after being betrayed a bunch of times.
I may be twenty-five but I still want to be Jenny when I grow up. Crafting a career around her love of film and literature and just being herself is friggin' inspiring.
Will it be as good as lethal weapon? No, it won't even be as good as a drunken Mel Gibson voicemail.
They called Darth Maul a year early!
They shud just go for: 'Han Solo The Musical'. And include at least one scene where Han and Chewbacca....actually Chew Tobacco. 40 yrs, and nobody has made that pun. Stone me.
I feel like there is going to be a really awkward scene in the Han Solo movie where Han Solo just happens to run into (WHAT?!?!?!?) Princess Leia, and Han Solo would be like, "Hey! ....................................... Watch where you are going!" And then it'll just be awkward for 10 seconds so that everybody could process everything, and then they just walk away from each other.
from now on, every guest should try to steal a stuffed animal as they leave and then throw it at Jenny
I don't think they can ruin my life with a movie. They put out five awful movies in a row and I've had a good life. 1985 Ewoks: The Battle for Endor, 1999 Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace, 2002 Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones, 2005 Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith, and 2008 Star Wars: The Clone Wars
12:58 YES exactly. 2 hrs of crap and 5 minutes at the end of pandering overload, and people will applaud and say it was an awesome movie.
Haters gonna hate
Pretty much the only thing I liked about Rogue One was the fan service. Everything else was just meh.
like rouge one then,lol
I am glad I have been enjoying the movies. I can't imagine being angry and knowing that after making so much money, Disney isn't going to change directions to feed millennial-malcontent. I can't wait to see how all the movies play out.
2 hours of crap, what are you 5? Let me guess, you liked Force Awakens.
9:54 I disagree with chewy
why does it seem like they dont know what the audience wants? youd think after a billion years of people talking about it they would have an idea of what their fans would actually like to see.
Maybe because "the audience" isn't just you and the people who like the same stuff as you, but rather an extremely heterogeneous group of people of all ages, ethnicities, tastes, nationalities, personalities, etc.
Can't ruin my life if I just don't watch it.
I hope the movie offers some closure for the canned corn/corn chips subplot.
Chewbacca should have been blond in this movie
I suppose I should be glad his name isn't "meat popsicle"
Jenny is amazing...She's so sarcastic to her guests her guests doesn't even know it.
Oh, they know about sarcasm. It's just that the awkwardness can't be avoided even when it's intentional.
I really, really wish this movie wasn't happening. If they could go back in time and make this movie with a young Harrison Ford I'd be all for it, but since that clearly isn't possible I have no desire to see it.
