(Title works better if you pronounce ‘Han’ the way Billy Dee Williams does.)
Just a reminder that George Lucas’s headcanon for the initial 6 movies involves R2-D2 embellishing its role in these stories in the distant future.
First time hearing this. Believable, but link please?
Thanks
“SERIOUSLY, WHERE DO I KNOW YOU FROM‽”
“YOU DON’T!”
“HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE, YOU HAVE LITERALLY ALL OF MY FORMER ACQUAINTANCES WITH YOU SAVE MY PADAWAN!”
“Um, Actually” Han didn’t turn up with Vader’s daughter, he came to rescue her from her father who had just obliterated her foster parents.
“Um, Actually” Han didn’t know she was there until they already got there
You totally win that point! And to anyone who hasn’t watched Dropout TV’s “Um, Actually” and enjoyed this thread, you’re going to love that show.
I feel like Han was an even greater hero as he stuck around to help the rebels while Luke went off to hang out with a muppet in a swamp.
Tbh, I never really got the idea of the millenium falcon.
It’s essentially one of these lorries some redneck modified into a jet truck dragster. These things are fast, but not agile and maneuverable at all, and they still don’t compete at all against vehicles that are purpouse-bult for speed/agility by real engineers in big corporations with large budgets.
Can’t tell me, that planet-sized ship building corporations which exist in Star Wars with their near-infinite budget can’t put together anything that’s faster.
