i agree, but i can see why VG might prefer Solo. It's a fun space pirate movie to R1's dark war movie in space.
Solo & R1 are very similar movies.

Sure. But what's that got to do with anything?

Exactly, they are so different. Rogue One is a war movie, with all their leading characters are doomed to death. Almost a drama.
Solo is a sci fan adventure flick, a perfect prequel both in tone and character wise with ANH.

Han's cocksuredness, the flight scenes, and the general sense of humor make the whole thing feel light and fun.

Rogue One = a war movie about men on a mission to certain doom. The empire casts a dark shadow over the entire film, much of the lighting is very dark, and everyone dies in the end.

This shouldn't be that hard.
It shouldn't and yet here we are.

Solo didn't remind me of ANH in tone at all.

Pal of mine on twitter has compiled a list (work in progress) of all the references and deep cuts

Hang on I get it.

So... L3 and Lando seem to be very *ahem* familiar with one another


Puts his relationship with Lobot in a whole new kinky light

I thought the droids head was going to end up being Lobot's head gear.

Wow, there's a lot of shit no one cares about on there. They count Chewie looking for his family as an Easter egg referencing the holiday special?

My 6yo daughter repeated every word that L3 said.

Me: "Do you like that Droid?"
Her: "I'm gonna make her out of LEGOs."

Those are cool. They did a good job putting them in the film without being too on the nose about it.
As for the fan service, this one was good about it. The only thing i didnt quite liked was the ending tough.
Spoiler: show
Felt weird and rushed...Im not sure i needed to see that scene

Did Chewie rip anyone's arms off in this movie?
