Solo (SPOILERS)

--- Quote from: Nicklab on July 7, 2015, 04:45 PM ---There are also a couple of things that I'd really like to see in this project, but I also don't want to have Chris Miller and Phil Lord painted into a corner.
-How Han Solo earns the life debt from Chewbacca
-Han winning the Millenium Falcon from Lando in the Sabacc game

Wasn't Han supposedly in the Imperial Academy (and that's where he rescues Chewie)? I thought I read that somewhere a long time ago... I could be wrong. Han as a disgruntled Imperial would be interesting, but I'm up for a good story over anything else.
I'm sure we'll see Jabba or hear him referenced. Bounty Hunters... it'd be nice to see Greedo, the Executor Six (as long as Fett isn't overused), but it'd be cool to see Cad Bane or Embo in there. Let's throw in some Tonnika Sisters (or however Disney wants to call them) so we can get their figures.
Nicklab:
Han being in the Imperial Academy is something that has been fodder for the EU but never made it into the films. I'm not sure if the life debt got mentioned in the OT, but it was certainly implied. But the Lando story about the Falcon is canon from TESB.
Scott:
I really like the idea of these anthology films fleshing out the time between Episodes III and IV, there is a good 30 years of stuff that is missing from the timeline.
A couple of thoughts I had that they could touch on including what Nick was saying: Bounty Hunters (Fett, Dengar, Bossk), Solo's Wife ::), Jabba Jabba Jabba Jabba...come on we need more Jabba in SW

1. No, I believe Han being in the Academy was from the early books before EU really heated up in the 90s. Still, it's probably considered Legacy at this point.
2. The life debt was also an EU thing.
But as I said, I don't care what they do as long as it's a good story.
I forgot to mention about Solo's Wife that was recently revealed in the comics. I'm not reading the comics, so it would be interesting if that would be included in the films and how that plays with Han's relationship with Leia. But I would prefer not to have a love triangle or really a love interest in the movies. Let it be an adventure film.
Nicklab:
Yeah, I think that aside from the bet between Han and Lando for the Falcon, everything else falls into that Legends category. Although the relationship between Han and Chewbacca is something that seems very worthy of exploring if you're going to make a movie about a young Han Solo.
And then there's this graphic that got leaked this morning that revealed the working title of FETT/SOLO - Anthology. So will we wind up with Temuera Morrison stepping in to play Boba Fett if this is legit?
****EDIT - Info is surfacing that this graphic may be bogus.
