>Ron Howard has been named as the new director of Lucasfilm and Disney’s untitled Han Solo movie, sources tell to The Hollywood Reporter exclusively. The official announcement is expected Thursday morning.
So they hired an obvious hack, pretty predictable. Not sure what the anons ITT mean by praising him, but Howard isn't better than Brett Ratner at this point.

No we won't.
Jeremiah Edwards
He directed Willow and Lucas wanted him to do Phantom Menace before he and the rest of his buddies told him to do the Prequels himself.
Jaxson Morgan
This is like that one episode of Entourage where they change directors on some movie set and the guy who comes in to direct is a total good goy who socks the studios D
Nathaniel Parker
>it's a cameo episode >then vince gets dropped from the movie because the new director doesnt like how he says salad or something gay like that
Jayden Cook
The movie will still be terrible.
Jaxson Nelson
Balock cameo confirmed!!!
Daniel Turner
A solid filmmaker. That is all. One of the few who regularly make historical movies (though he can get pretty liberal with their accuracy).
Matthew Lopez
yes, this is his best work
Jace Peterson
>but then E says something to the Producer and has to make a stress face and then Vince gets the part back and everything works out perfectly and all of them get their dicks wet
YEAH YEAHHHHH

Yes he made the Grinch

Ryder Campbell
nope not at all buddy. Im in super good mood today.
Dominic Reyes
Should have given him a new movie.
Replacing directors is a shit thing.
Jace Walker
isn't he somehow involved in pedophilia? or was he molested as a kid?
Justin Kelly
He's competent. He safely makes vanilla paste movies.
Connor Cox
It's like getting a mini spielberg to direct, he directed Willow.
He understands Lucas's story telling style probably better than any of the directors that aren't from his big 4 group.
Jeremiah Green
Kathleen probably has a heap of negro child sex slaves from Haiti that she rapes with her 3 inch clit.
They're all scum in the white slaver game
Robert Hall
they say there is only 3 and a half weeks of shooting left, so can he salvage the quip comedy they were trying to make it as, how many weeks of reshoots will he need
Maybe if Hitchcock wasn't such a little bitch and died he could have stuck it out to win one.

Frost/Nixon is better than all of those put together
Isaiah Gutierrez
If he was motivated he could have lived another 10 or so years.
Hunter Long
I still argue Willow is his best movie. He managed to make a fantasy starwars movie set in a DnD world and movie actually worked, using a fucking midget no less as main protag.
It would be like making a starwars movie following around an ewok.
Ethan Barnes

There is literally no reason that Willow can't be part of Star Wars continuity. Disney owns it. Ron Howard should thrown in a line to reference the baby girl as the Queen of whatever planet that was.
And why the FUCK is the Willow Blu-ray out of print?
Nathaniel Lopez
I thought it was still in stock on amazon but I haven't checked other places yet.
It actually could be.
>Planet hasn't discovered space travel yet >Willow's world is near dathimor
David Thomas
They actually did "Willow is Star Wars Canon now!" as an April Fools joke like 11 years ago.
ohh shit you're right, I was looking at dvd prices, and bluray is out of print, only thing left is the multi-format which is why it's so expensive, it's 70 on amazon
Lucas Garcia

He will provide the most normie point of view Star Wars could ever have. There's nothing nerdy about him at all, he's just like those regular "fans" that think A New Hope was the best movie and that's about it. Basically he's gonna make another TFA. I don't think he cares about the lore or the Star Wars Universe or anything.
Nathaniel Roberts
I don't think anyone really cares about the movie either
Matthew Williams
Best case scenario: origin story in the sense of a 50s car-heavy teenage rebellion movie ala Americans Graffiti, which is both in character and in the director's experience Likely scenario: soulless Marvel formula no. 689 with Howard totally phoning it in for the paycheck
His works range from fucking kino to utter trash, also fuck off
Camden Clark
No it isn't.
Connor Bennett
Yeah you are right, they could probably get writers who are passionate about Star Wars if they wanted to, but no director will be like that except Lucas himself (or not even him).
>Tom Hanks may get to be Han Solos father and say "I told my son. Not to get into the smuggling business not to be a scoundrel, but I couldn't ever stop him, his free spirit yearned for the stars, just like a firefly yearns for the darkness. All a father, all any father can do is say Han, I'd stay home and raise good strong children on our family farm and live for God, but we all need to find our purpose, and he told me, Go To Hell and left for good, which is what great sons do."

>Lucasfilm doesn't have a group of nerd advisers

That was a good read. Thanks, user
>Skywalker" is the English translation of the sanskrit word "Daikini", which is the name of Elora Danan's species in the film. Both Anakin Skywalker and Elora Danan are individuals who are the subject of a prophecy to overthrow an evil enemy. Whether this similarity in naming was intentional by Lucas is unknown. Based on concept art in the book The Art of Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace, the Jedi uniforms for the prequels were at one point going to resemble Madmartigan's battle attire.
Dominic Wilson
It does NOT. It instead has a group of strong feminist women.
Brayden Campbell
:^)
But seriously, Abrams nothing to do with those others. He collaborated with Speilberg once, but only had a brief chat with Lucas and has never worked with Coppola. He's more in company with the music video generation of directors like Fincher and Bay, and even that's really pushing it. John Milius (Conan, Red Dawn) would be more in line with the other 70s directors.
