Also, stock footage of a TIE pilot inside the cockpit already exists. Matching the set, lighting and viewing angle would have been an excellent OT tie-inInteresting cut scene with Solo as TIE pilot:

I both like and dislike this scene
+ Fills in some gaps/missing time
+ I like seeing Imperial beuacrassy
- TIE Fighter pilot without full helmet is just all wrong. Yes, I understand they wanted to show the actors face but this could have been somuch better artistically done such as Tony Stark inside the Iron Man suit.
- Interior TIE Fighter cockpit looks like an operating room
- Hans cocky humor waaaay overdone here

I think it matches the actual cockpit well, it's just that the lighting's screwed up so it looks roomier than it actually is.
Personally I enjoyed the Droid rebellion/Droid rights thing as a satire.I saw this a few hours ago. It was ok. Maybe it's just me, but I want to believe it means something about the movie (or any other movie I feel this way about; too many these days) if I can't be bothered to remember the characters names. I only remember Han, Chewbacca, Lando, Becket, and of course, the main reason I'll watch TPM. (man am I excited for what's next! Sorry, but I always liked him lol) About an hour and 10 minutes in, I start to find some enjoyment in the movie. Lando was great. So was Chewbacca. I can't help but think that Han was too positive - err - happy. The actor did the best it could. It has the same dead eyes that Harrison Ford has, and, to me, that sold it as a young Han.
Now. Some criticism with spoilers.
I'm a recovering conservative who supports the cause of social justice advocates - and all that jazz. I can't help but think that, despite supporting it, it's being improperly executed in recent movies. I wasn't a fan of how it was done in TLJ with the casino scene, and I'm not a fan of how it was done in Solo. Improper execution leads to bad representation of messages and ideas (and even people) - and the result is counter productive. People get turned off and then develop disdain for said ideas and the people who are advocates of them. Since its beginning, media has shaped how the world sees others - different people - and the result has proven to be negative. It may be done with good intentions, but the screenwriters really need to know what the hell they're attempting to portray. It's laughable sometimes and makes me believe they're just intentionally taking the p͏i͏ss at the people who hold those ideas. Maybe that's actually what's happening, eh?
I was not expecting the droid rebellion because it came out of nowhere. Unexpected. It was odd. Kind of funny, but still odd. I'm left wondering if Disney will continue to incorporate its attempt at a little social commentary. I've yet to be impressed by any of their attempts in non animated movies. I'm not going to lie, it'd be nice if it was done right, but I really have no hope.
Yeah, I know it was satire. It was kind of funny, but...dumb. I'm left wondering why it was the idea the screenwriter settled on. A droid who wants droid rights and expresses its concern about them in quite a fourth wall breaking way. Really. That's what's needed in the Star Wars universe, eh? lol. Satire or not, it didn't do much for Solo, nor did it do anything for TLJ. It seems like wasted time.Personally I enjoyed the Droid rebellion/Droid rights thing as a satire.
Your not wrong interpreting it your own way.

Solo definitely felt like a Marvel movie - not one of the really good ones though.I REALLY disliked (even hated) the TLJ Casino sequence.
I think I can better tolerate a little foolishness in the Anthology movies. To me they are like the Marvel Star Wars comics I read as a kid. Light-hearted and fun, a little silly and goofy but allowing us to expand between the Trilogy movies.
I've been seeing the advertisements on TV. Geez, seems like you can barely see the picture. Is the movie really this dark blue and cloudy looking?
Yeah. I was hoping they had cleaned it up for home release.... Oh well. Probably my biggest complaint about the movie in the theater was how murky it was.
