Boba Fett and Han Solo spinoff movies in the works…
According to reports, Disney plan the spin-off films to include vehicles for Han Solo and Boba Fett. Solo’s film would be set in the time period between Revenge Of The Sith and A New Hope, while the Boba Fett film would take place either between A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back, or between The Empire Strikes Back and Return Of The Jedi.[/quote]
I like the idea of a Boba Fett solo film, but I just have a bad feeling about it. (No pun intended.)
Unrelated: the latest rumor is that Dwayne Johnson might be Green Lantern John Stewart in the next year or two. With the flop that was Ryan Reynolds’ GL, do we think The Rock will be enough to start it fresh, figuring they learned their mistakes from the last one?[/quote]
I was thinking that Idris Elba would have been a solid choice for John Stewart.
Whoever gets it will have a lot of work ahead of them. The bright side is it can’t possibly suck more than what they already made.[/quote]
But why can’t we let it all die from our memories first? Why do we have to have reboots only a few years?![/quote]
I think in this particular case they are doing it because they want to do a Justice League movie sometime in the next 5 years. Same reason they are kind-of-sort-of rebooting/bringing back Batman.
But overall, I agree that Hollywood needs to chill it with reboots. Especially if the original is still in our recent memory. If you don’t get nostalgic over a reboot, they are doing it wrong. [/quote]
They should’ve given Superman the same chance at a solo franchise as they gave Batman before even thinking about an expanded DC universe. It wasn’t so long ago that they were promoting Man of Steel as Christopher Nolan’s revamp of Superman. Setting him against a new version of Batman seems like they’ve strayed too far from the original concept.
