It is now officially called "Solo: A Star Wars Story" ... which surprised ... probably no one.  :)

Howard has documented his experience making Solo: A Star Wars Story on Twitter and Instagram throughout production — with everything from photos with cast members to teases of vehicle controls to shots of his morning coffee. StarWars.com has compiled all of his updates in one post, which you can view here.

 

Solo: A Star Wars Story, set prior to the events of the original Star Wars trilogy, is slated for release on May 25, 2018.

Ron Howard is a great director but I don't expect much out of this side story.   It'll make a pretty penny because it's star wars but I just don't feel excited for these "side projects", if you will.

I still think they should have used the guy on Age of Adaline who played a the Young Harison Ford... this was him doing an impression in 2008, they must have saw it and hired him.

 

 

 

Yeah, I have no idea how they passed him up.  The guy they chose looks and acts nothing like Harrison Ford.

Yeah, he sounds like he's Han Solo that hasn't hit puberty yet.  Also acts more like he's channeling Chris Pine's Kirk rather than Harrison Ford's Han Solo.  Only hope I have for this movie is Donald Glover's Lando.

Literally none of the mannerisms of Han from any of the movies come through in this trailer.  Han always was cocky but in a way that he knew he could back it up.  This is some dude who doesn't have that experience yet, so it just comes off as wrong.

    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      Looks like the 7.1 is fake effects, can it at least do real 5.1? It says 'virtual 7.1' in all descriptions.

      You can't, if you didn't notice, it doesn't support surround at all, it's right in the spec list.

      Hi — I’m always interested in soundcards. Like displays, I just want to know I’m getting as much clean “sonic juice” into my brain as possible as the years take their toll. I’m not entirely sure what to take away from this review, though. It doesn’t really tell me whether the AE‑X is a good product or who it’s actually for. Most of what I’m getting is: there’s a driver to install, here’s what it looks like, and here’s what’s in the box. There’s a lot of emphasis on the SPDIF input. When you mention not needing to switch headphones between console and PC — does that mean the PC has to be powered on just to pass audio through? That seems like a fairly big waste of energy. Is this more something a streamer would use alongside a capture card? How are you testing the sound? (Also, you might want to clarify that you’re using the headphones in wired mode when you mention they’re wireless.) You mention the lack of EMI shielding — how much real‑world difference does that make compared with typical motherboard audio? On multi‑channel: what exactly isn’t supported? Does this mean Windows spatial audio (Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, etc.) won’t work, or just that the card itself doesn’t decode surround formats? And are there any true multi‑driver “surround” headphones left that would even use that? You also highlight support for high‑impedance headphones — but what does that translate to in practice? How does it compare to driving the same headphones from a normal device, and does it make any difference for everyday, lower‑impedance models? In short, who is this card actually targeted at?

      Yes, THIS is wordart, not the styling that can now be done. Wordart was all about those curvy words, that you could change the path of, like making words go around a circle. I don't think it can be done now, right?
