TLJI'd slot Solo in just below TLJ before the gigantic gap to the prequels. But as you note, repeat viewings might see it change.
True. TLJ gets worse, pretty certain Solo won't though
Didn't for me, but lets not kick if off again.

First SW flick that him and R2 aren't in if my calculations are correct.

Those pricks aren't seeing anymore of my money.
I had a very interesting conversation yesterday. It was my youngests birthday party and one of his friends has a dad who is a massive Star Wars fan. How massive? He named his farking youngest kid Lando. I shit you not. This kid is also albino white which is hilarious. Anyway I asked this kid (not Lando his brother) whether they were going to see Solo. He said no and that none of them liked the new films. I dug a bit further and apparently their dad absolutely hated the new films, particularly with what they'd done to Han and Luke.
So yeah, this isn't an isolated thing and as much as some braindead tools want to chalk it all down to mysogeny and racism, it is simply due to the new films being multiple shades of shit.
But what I'd really like to know what it is what makes the prequels so irredeemably bad, but the new films so awesome. I'm genuinely interested in the answer to that one.

Hahaha. Lando.....So good.....coulda been worse. He coulda been named after a car.
Go and see it. It's a cool flick.
You know I've got your back in terms of prequels vs the later two as well.

As comparatively crap as I reckon TLJ is I wouldn't go so far as to call it unwatchable. There's still enough good stuff, it's just far and away the worst SW flick in my opinion.

I can't really be arsed, as we've been going on about this for months now, but I got bored trying to rewatch the prequels (Natalie Portman comes out of them looking like a first year acting student), I don't get that with any of the new ones, I've watched them all bar Solo multiple times, so no I don't find them just as bad.
I think you just need to make your peace with the fact that people like the new ones ... just like I assume some people like the prequels.

Christ, all I wanted to know was why. Apparently it's still too hard to actually provide a proper answer to that question.

The thing is that all SW films, even the prequels, have some seriously awesome scenes you can view. DVDs made that even easier. For instance, AOTC is pretty crap but the arena scene and the following light sabre scenes are farking mint. Same goes for TPM with Maul vs Obi. TLJ had jack. The only things that I might consider going back to see are the red guard scene which was farking idiotic because Rey was apparently now a master lightsaber fighter on par with Ren (so much for the claims regarding the last film that it was only because he was shot by Chewy) and Luke's tiny little cameo. In fact it was criminal to see how Luke was wasted in that film.

Solo is probably the most Star Wars-y of the new films. I think you’d like it.
Good luck not giving your money to Disney

Yes ultimately it's Disney, but Lucasfilms makes the films. If these films do poorly then hopefully they'll axe the halfwits in charge and replace them with people who actually give a shit about the fans and creating good characters.
But yes the feedback for this film has been solid and I'm sure I'll enjoy it when I watch it for free on cable in a year's time.
