Where was Lando?

SJWs can't write for shit.

Why not have Lando return in the most dire situation to help out Finn? Have him be there at the Casino, while Finn is looking for the hacker all by himself. This could've been an amazing substitute black father moment for Finn, who's probably never had a family figure and would've introduced Lando back into the story.

can we not ruin yet another character from the original 6 movies

Fuck, that would’ve actually been brilliant

>finn and rose are getting arressted
>just before they get tased the cops are told to stand down
>turns out lando runs the casino or has a very high reputation in it and aids finn and rose in stopping the first order
i would have loved this

The X-wing pilots that didn't die in TFA that didn't appear in TLJ went to find him for help?

This. Also, Billy Dee is Sisko-level of crazy awesome and too busy singing on Broadway and doing voive acting to care about that shit.

>LOOK ITS LANDO HE'S FROM EMPIRE. I CLAPPED CAUSE I KNOW LANDO
fuck off they need less fan service pandering not more.

Holy fuck the wasted potential in this movie is such a fucking crime. That would've been awesome.

Whats lando up to in nuwars eu or was he left out of that too?

but this plot point could've actually made sense considering who Lando is? are you saying Han's second best friend who had the hots for princess Leia is just going out and about not giving a shit about the resistance? the same dude who despised the empire?

But in that case it would have been plot relevant and not just fan service. Everythhing was in place to make Lando's appearance make sense.

LANDO IN REAL LIFE IS 80 YEARS OLD, YOU DUMB FUCKS!

He would have been the 2nd OLDEST person ever to have appeared in SW (main character).

He should have been in tfa faggot

Whats the problem youngfag

Yoda was 900.
Checkmate. Where is your god now, you fucking edglord atheist?
You're also an ageist or whatever the fuck it's called. Who cares about age? He wasn't going to go kung fu ninja flips or anything. The Godfather-type character who have been perfect for Lando.

Christopher Lee was in his 80s in AOTC and ROTS. Max Von Sydow who was in TFA was 86.

Fuck off.

yes
there are a bajillion other people in the universe. Make it about them
TFA shouldnt exist.

>Where was Lando?
Hopefully far away from this abomination, enjoying his life with his japanese waifu

Lando at the Casino would have been fucking amazing

Knowing ryan he wouldve made him the owner of the yacht that sells weapons to both the resistance and the first order

>why not have a character from the original trilogy return
Because that's one of the main themes of the movie - stop dwelling on the past, quit reinforcing nostalgia, let it go.
And if a new Star Wars movie starts to feel kinda empty and less interesting without bringing this and that back from the original trilogy, there's another lesson for you - maybe the Star Wars universe doesn't have that much creative potential to begin with. Maybe you should also quit dwelling on the idea that there is some explorable and expandable "universe" outside the original trilogy.

that's the same logic as saying the Constitution is bad because it's old and doesn't have much to say about how to live a good life, therefore we shouldn't utilize its wisdom and just make up new shit

Because they can't make Lando an idiot because he's a PoC.

If you felt the need to make a new Constitutional document every year I would agree. He is right but really it's the orignal six movies. A silly mistake.

He was supposed to have a cameo at the casino, the guy who was on a roll was supposed to be Lando.

It should be noted that Rian changed statements several times about this.

Before release:
>“He’s not in the film and it was never really something that came up."

After release:
>“In terms of Lando, I briefly considered — would he work in the Benicio [del Toro] part, [DJ]."

Also Billy Dee's daughter and Rian Johnson's S/O have some kind of beef, and I think that played into it.

Why make a SW movie at all?

goys gotta hand in their shekels
