I am a little concerned about who they cast as young Han Solo though. It's not just because about the acting, but I think whoever takes Han's role must look similar to Harrison Ford, as not to break the magic and kill the illusion. That is why I think Samuel L. Jackson should be young Han Solo. Mr. Jackson with a wig could do the trick and pass as someone else (young Han) and differentiate himself to Mace Windu at the same time.

well shit now I just wanna see them make a big spoof of this. I'm playing LEGO Marvel and they keep referencing his movies with Nick Fury quotes which I find hilarious.

Mystery is good for a character's background. I don't need to know Darth Vader used to say "Yipppppie!" when he was 9-years-old. Or was a whiny brat as a teenager. I don't need to see Boba Fett as a snotty nosed little kid. That didn't enhance the character in any way for me.

I get what you mean, I was against Hannibal Rising and how it slimmed down everything that Hannibal was to a single event, instead of leaving his character as a deep and puzzling character that one cannot figure out.
Just like The Dark Knight's Joker would raise so many questions about him that would have no answer and one of those being how he got his faced scarred which then served somehow as a sadistic element for him to lie again and again while not addressing what really happened to him. It's almost like him telling everyone his background story doesn't matter but what he respresents now and what he is now: The Joker.
But then you have the Hannibal TV Series and the masterful way in which they approached Hannibals background story and that makes me feel what I posted before:
AbbathTheGrim said: When it comes to things like this I am always in the "as long as I like how they do it it's ok" bandwagon.
So to me it is a situation of seeing whether they do a great work with Han's character and his story or not, which judging by the first films has a lot of interesting things that could be told: adventures, his work, screwing Jabba the Hutt, meeting Chewie, the Millenium Falcon, etc.
They could be great films or they could suck, we'll see.

there's a simple solution to avoid the mistakes of the prequels. Don't take it back to their childhood (unless it's a quick flashback that explains their motivations or something). Oh and don't let Hayden Christensen play their older versions.
