Just ran across this in an article claiming that Harrison Ford has said he is interested in the new movies. :hm

Pretty interesting attention to detail there :tu

It's actually pretty cool. Good time waster. It's obviously a gimmick, but an easy way to burn some time if you're bored in line, or something.

That's really interesting. Why did he hate the character so much? I could google it, but I'd rather hear it from someone who knows it themselves.

Solo is a pretty flat character. Also, he thought the character had pretty much served the films' purpose and wouldn't be very relevent for future films after Empire. Ford wanted more challenging work from what I remember, but he has shown interest in reprising his role of late.

Anyone who's read a few of the Star War novels (and I'm not necessarily recommending one do so :D ) knows that the Han Solo character does develop more depth . . . if anything in this universe has any true depth. :r

Coran Horn would make a fascinating movie spinoff character :)

I agree completely, but as far as the original trilogy went...

Sort of a similar situation with the Nimoy "Spock" character in the first three Trek films. Nimoy was only in half of the first film, got killed off in the second, and was resurrected in the third due to character issues (and a contract dispute).

Many of the BABOTL have toured Rancho Obi Wan. It is just a few houses away from the Barn in Petaluma. :tu
