Advanced ticket sales for Solo: A Star Wars Story are among the highest of 2018 so far, outpacing the mighty juggernaut Black Panther. There was a point in time when many were convinced the spinoff would be Lucasfilm's first proper bomb (or, at the very least, disappointment) in their Disney era. On top of perceived apathy about the premise of a young Han Solo origin story, the infamous production difficulties raised several red flags about its potential quality. But it's best to not tell Han the odds. Solo is shaping up to be one of the summer's biggest hits.

Thanks in part to a steadily improving marketing campaign that's alleviating fears viewers had about the prequel, Solo is tracking to soar past the all-time Memorial Day weekend record when it opens later this month. As Lucasfilm comes down the home stretch of promotion, they made a big splash recently when Solo tickets went on sale . As it turns out, quite a few people are interested in seeing the movie on the big screen.

That was never going to happen because the last Jedi already came out

Disney is going to swallow everything whole. Something or somebody has to kill it.

I'm interested to see how well it does. I don't think preorders are a terribly accurate metric.

I think it'll do better than Rogue One, but not TLJ. Everyone loves Han, so they're going to see it. And of course people got their ticket on Star Wars day.
