Description

By now we've gotten to see all our favorite "classic" Star Wars heroes return to the saga after a decades-long wait, and then they all got snuffed out.  Except for Lando, of course...the least "heroic" out of them all...he gets to live!  You remember he double-crossed the REAL heroes and was eyeing Princess Leia from the get-go.  Grrrrr...it's enough to make you wanna pull someone's arms out of their sockets (like the screenwriters?) but here we have a stand-alone movie about the coolest dude ever to zip through hyperspace: Han Solo!  Why, we'd be happy if EVERY Star Wars movie was a Han Solo adventure.  On the condition that he's played by Harrison Ford!  Which, sorry to say, he's not.  We've got a younger version of Han, and a totally new actor filling those boots.  Seems pretty iffy to say the least, but it turns out to be a decent movie after all, with some excitement and humor, familiar furry faces (Chewie, of course!  Not the effin' ewoks!) and just a slight touch of the Force.  Director Ron Howard did a great job with it, and I bet the making of this movie brought everyone involved some Happy Days.  Play this podcast and today can be one for you!
