Transcript
(NC intro)

NC: Hello, I'm the Nostalgia Critic. I remember it so YOU don't have to!

(Shows covers of nostalgia critic reviews on rogue one, The force awakens, The last Jedi and The rise of Skywalker)

NC (voiceover): As you may know I have reviewed a lot of Star Wars films created by Disney including all the movies in the sequel trilogy and Rogue one.

NC: so it’s only natural for me to review....

(Supersamus appears)

NC: Gaaah!

Supersamus: Hi Critic! Wait a second. Are YOU talking about a Star Wars movie?

NC (startled): Uh, um... yes... wh... what do you want?

Supersamus: I wanna JOIN IT!

NC: NUH UH! NO WAY IN HELL WILL I INVITE YOU TO A REVIEW!

Supersamus: Alright, you've asked for it! (makes a whistle sound)

(Nobody comes he tries whistling but still nothing)

Supersamus: Oh come on guys!! Guess I'll have to do this the hard way...and by myself

NC: OH NO! PLEASE, NO! AAAAAAH!!!!!!!

Supersamus: Are you gonna do the review with me, Nostalgia Critic?

NC: FUCK NO! FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT!

Supersamus: Ah well, then. Suit yourself! (plays the Doug theme song)

NC: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!! FINE! I'LL TELL YOU WHAT STAR WARS MOVIE I'M REVIEWING!

Samus: Good. What is it?

(song stops)

NC (crying): Solo: A Star Wars Story.

(Star Wars music plays, then the title card is displayed, then several clips show as Supersamus talks about the movie)

Supersamus (voiceover): When it comes to Star Wars, the films are immediate box office smashes, right? Well, this movie proved that statement wrong, as it became a box office bomb. Along with that, the people who DID see the movie invested very little interest in it, and it's a rare kind of Star Wars movie: not just that it failed, but it's the first to be forgotten by so many people. Is this movie forgettable, or is there something in it that's worth remembering?

(cuts back to NC and Supersamus)

NC: Well I'm here along with all YOU to try to find something in this movie. Released in 2018 this is, Solo: a Star Wars Story.

(The film opens with a different version of the opening crawl)

Supersamus (VO): We start off with not an opening crawl but more than a few blue paragraphs to give us some information.

(A poster of Rogue One appears)

NC (VO): Which is more then I can say for Rogue One.

(We see Han Solo fixing the speeder then quickly driving while stormtroopers are chasing him, then up in the sky the title appears)

NC (VO): We see a young Han Solo played by Alden Ehrenreich, who seems to be on the run from some stormtroopers.

Supersamus (VO): We cut to the title Solo a Star Wars story, which kind a looks like one of those hologram video games.

(Cuts back to NC and Supersamus)

NC: Seriously that’s your best joke.

Supersamus: Than what would you have said.

NC: Nothing.
