Sadly, #Tag&Bink were left on the cutting room floor despite my strong objection. Look for them in the deleted scenes. They were there, working menial security jobs when Han was brought before the disciplinary committee at the Imperial Academy at Carida.

Solo is a straight up space western, it’s the Kasdans jettisoning heaviosity and hard-wiring into the spirit of the old serials. It’s seriously a blast. If you’re on the fence check @RealRonHoward’s feed for some great fan reactions, and to see a class act in action.

Look, “fell short of expectations” isn’t what anyone hopes to hear in the bedroom or at the box office but, mostly, I’m just thrilled by the reaction to #Solo. And if ya want more #underworld stories, keep askin’ Disney and Lucasfilm for ’em! Believe it or not, they listen.

Just a reminder that the contents of an “art of” book does not necessarily imply that something was “almost” in a film. It could mean that, sure. It could also mean that an artist just decided to draw something that they thought looked cool. https://t.co/DOGXQmIz5U
