Thoughts on - Star Wars "Solo" (no spoilers)

Hi all,
         Just a quick post, this one. Sad news if you were one of those who hoped that Disney had mended their ways and started to adhere to "cannon" or original Star Wars lore. In this case, they mess with the Falcon's origin. Lore has it that she was built by Han and Lando (on re-checking with my source, that should have been Obi-wan and Aniken) from the hulks of three other ships. For the new take on it, you will have to see the film.
          Overall, I did enjoy the film (seen in 2D) which does fill in some of the gaps in Han's history. There seemed less reliance on special effects in this film. L3 was a nice addition to the robotic cast. Disney does seem ok when filling in some details of a story, but so far have been failing miserably when forging ahead with no guidelines to go on.

Rating - 8 out of 10.
