“Solo” is the Perfect Story of Han Before the OT


Once the Expanded Universe became Legend, many questions faced us Star Wars Fans: What incident caused the Millennium Falcon to look like a hand flying through space? How did Han meet Chewbacca and is the Life Debt still in play? What is so special about the Kessel Run? Thankfully Solo: A Star Wars Story actually highlights many of the questions about our beloved fandom. Today, Solo: A Star Wars Story is released digitally, and it will be released on DVD, Blu-ray, and 4K Ultra HD September 25.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

FYI, there will be SPOILERS below, so don’t read if you have been holding out for months waiting to see the film.

As a die-hard fan for all things Star Wars…Yes even the pre-trilogy… I couldn’t wait to see the new Solo movie. I wanted to see where Han Solo came from, how he met Chewbacca, and just what choices led him into deep water. Solo: A Star Wars Story did not disappoint.

The movie starts with Han on Corellia, stealing in order to survive. It isn’t long before he and Qi’ra plan an escape, which goes completely wrong. No surprise there, we are talking about Han after all. This theme of failed attempts at escaping flows well into the original trilogy with Han. Word of advice…Never follow Han in an escape plan. It a;ways winds up with the Empire and a certain amount of pain. Or ending up down a space slug’s throat. Han certainly never has a dull moment.

Han and Qi’ra attempting to escape Corellia

Of course the connection to the original trilogy doesn’t end there. Once Han swears to come back and save Qi’ra, He goes on a massive introduction to the original trilogy adventure. We find Han becoming an imperial officer, finding Chewie, joining a band of galactic smugglers, meeting Lando, falling in love with the Millennium Falcon, and even making the Kessel run. To top it off, we even have a surprise guest at the end.

Making the Kessel Run

I enjoyed the movie Solo: A Star Wars Story immensely. It brought back so many feeling of my childhood when I first sat down and watched A New Hope. I found myself Laughing, crying, and totally immersed in the Star Wars Universe. Solo truly feels like a Star Wars story and it belongs in the movie lineup to be watched right before the Original Trilogy begins. Who could ask for more when it comes to Star Wars? I give it a well deserved 5 stars!

Actually, I know exactly what us fans can ask for…how about some hilarious concept art. I think Chewbacca may need a hair cut in some of these. hahaha

  • Harry Potter Crochet Blanket Pattern by SKGaleana

    I have created some fun Crochet Blankets in the last couple years. My Star Wars Blanket is adorable and the Video game blanket is epic. However, this Harry Potter blanket may take the win with it’s unique interacting Mandrake square.

    When I was making this blanket I wanted to make something unique, maybe a little magical. The blanket is inspired by Harry Potter after all. So I asked some of my fellow geeks what would be something cool this blanket could do. Apparently, everyone wants to pull a mandrake from a pot (like a rabbit from a hat). So off I went to make a pattern that would allow this sort of interaction…And I Achieved SUCCESS! Yes you read that correctly, this blanket allows the user to pull a Mandrake out of the pot and see it’s screaming face.

    That pattern to make the screaming Mandrake is a little difficult and requires the knowledge of increasing and decreasing stitches in a crochet shape. It also requires the knowledge of sc, hdc, dc, and tr stitches. It takes a little time, but once it is done, the square is a magical piece of art.

    The pattern also includes some of the awesome moments and symbols from Harry Potter that we all enjoy, such as the Sorting hat, Knight Bus, and the Hogwartz emblem. The blanket is an adventure to make and to snuggle up in, but after every adventure we must remember to say, “Mischief Managed.”

    If you want to make this magical blanket, then buy the pattern from my store and go forth and create your little piece of comfort.
