Not bad.

Not bad, but keeping the actor playing Han under wraps seems like an odd choice.

Really, some beautiful shots in there, like the Star Destroyer coming through the clouds or whatever, the pimp shot of the Falcon in the fog, the funky gold singer, the train. Looks like Tag and Bink at the beginning of the trailer.
My only qualm is that the Falcon looks too new. I was always under the impression that the MF was an old ship, at least thirty or forty years old, if not older. The interior looked factory fresh. This probably takes place ten or so years before ANH, and I don't know if Han Solo is going to fuck the ship up that much in so short a time.

But who else is expecting the Lando film to be fast tracked...

The reveal of Glover as Lando looked more bad ass than that of Han’s reveal at the end which looked terrible...

Donald Glover will probably be the only good thing about this mess.

Looks good to me. Seems like it fits in aesthetically with the Original Trilogy and Rogue One and nothing jumped out as awful like I feel some were anticipating. Lando seems cool so far and while he’s not Ford I think Ehrenreich looks the part from the little that’s seen so far.

I hope they keep some of the Miller/Lord stuff. I was kind of looking forward to that style, injected into the Star Wars universe.

Glover certainly looks interesting as Lando, but can he be as suave as Billy Dee?

But anyways, this looks great. Han as an Imperial, the Falcon looking clean and Lando looking suave.
I think Ronnie Howard just might have made a silk purse out of a sow's ear here.

You're spot on with the aesthetic observation. That was a big part of Rogue One fitting into the saga, and I'm really start to think the prequels made a big mistake in not having that same look. We're talking about a civilization that's 10s of thousands of years old. It should change that much in 20-30 years.
I can sort of understand how the prequels were shinier and more sterile because most of those movies took place within the halls of power (Jedi Temple, Senate, Palaces), but even the places like Tatooine loked too clean and polished.

I was mildly hoping that the teaser would change my mind about this movie being a bad idea, but at the risk of threadcrapping, it really didn't.
