>Speaking with EW, co-writer Jon Kasdan talked about how important it is for the Falcon to “reflect the personality of its captain.” Of course, the ship belongs to smooth customer Lando Calrissian when Solo begins, so it isn’t surprising the always-dapper scoundrel would want to call a lavish vehicle home:
>“Where Han gave it a certain shabby coolness and a dinged up quality that reflected where he was at that point in his life, this Falcon reflects its owner very clearly in its shape and aesthetic and his needs, even if those needs be a little more space to entertain.”
>Alden Ehrenreich told EW Solo’s Falcon is his way of blending in with the crowd.
>“It’s safer in the galaxy to fly something that looks like a piece of junk. People underestimate you — especially if you’re up to no good. Kinda like how you’re more likely to get pulled over if you’re driving a Lamborghini.”
So if Han loved the Falcon why didn't he do it up post Return?
Juan Richardson
cheese nose makes no sense
Elijah Sanchez
>Kinda like how you’re more likely to get pulled over if you’re driving a Lamborghini.”
So Han cut the front of a lambo to use as a freight ship?
What the fuck kind of analogy is that??
Samuel Watson
who gives a fuck
Camden Morgan
>>“It’s safer in the galaxy to fly something that looks like a piece of junk. It doesn't make sense. In the OT it's clear that the Falcon is an old ship that is always breaking down. It's not just a disguise, it's a fact. But I see the newfags don't care about continuity. The ship will go from brand new ship to wreck in a matter of two minutes. I wonder if that was the original idea or because of the reshoots.
Ian White
NuFalcon for NuWars. Get over it white racist fuckboi
Jack Mitchell
He's saying that a run down ship doesn't look like one a smuggler would use even though that's retarded logic as the Empire would be looking for low tech ships as that is what the Rebellion uses
Brody Campbell
This is the reason that the cockpit is to the side, too. Disney Wars is worse than I ever imagined.
Henry Diaz
Is that fuggin tie fighter traveling in hyperspace? fuck that noise
Matthew Lewis
I actually have no problem with the interior being sleek, the ship is probably brand new
100% chance the front of the ship is a nose cone that, during a crucial moment in the 3rd act will get damaged and detach, revealing the classic Falcon profile
Austin Cook
Wasn't Falcon shown in one of prequels? With official Lucas confirmation, that it is Falcon, and not another YT-1300 vessel.
Ryder Butler
But the Ship just doesn't have an extra nose cone
It has body panelling, radar dish and cockpit
Alexander Jenkins
Han and Duke have to outrun Imperial Sheriff Boss Hogg in the Millennium Lee. How will the Duke boys get out of this one?
Xavier Wood
This is bullshit. Falcon is clearly seen in RotS Lucas confirmed it is "Millenium Falcon" when others asked if it could be just another similar ship. Prequels are canon, why Di$hitney mess it up now?
Nolan Myers
How the hell is that ship aerodynamic, haven't they learned anything since the 70s?
Isaac Fisher
it's so they can sell two different versions of the ship as toys go out and buy both for your kid
Jose Allen
>star wars >real world physics
Pick one
Camden Thomas
you don't need aero in space literally a brick got same chance as a sleek rocket
Jason Rodriguez
If they are changing it now and are open to it
Why not change it in Force Awakens
James Hernandez
>"reflect the personality of its captain.” I like that because Rey changed nothing on it, reflecting her lack of personality
Christopher Cox
HA!
Aaron Richardson
aka WE NEED NEW TOYS FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK
Jose Robinson
>Why not change it in Force Awakens They did.
Mason Howard
The actual reason right here. MERCHANDISING
Blake Myers
this one makes sense. Lando broken it in RotJ
Ryan Parker
>something that actually makes sense in TFA
William Morales
Holy shit, thats what the train cars on the mountain train in the trailer looks like. Im guessing the gap fill is actually an add on that gets removed by the end of the movie.
Ethan Adams
>Aerodynamics
>Vacuum of Space
Good job user
Colton Russell
so the origin story i know of the falcon is bullshit now?
Andrew Butler
disney's Nu-wars is bullshit >kill past, if you have >so here have a movie about your favourite nostalgia character they got no clue what they want, also i have bad feelings that they gonna ruine Han's character. They had no chance to rail him coz he died, so not they gonna make him a pussy in prequel
Logan Brown
It’s like saying police look for Porsches and Ferraris because most heroin dealers drive civics and Cavaliers.. literally no sense
Angel Lopez
It actually has an even longer origin story
>Remember, when the Falcon enters our movie, it’s already had a long life. Decades of existence. And it’s been modified even from its original design. What we tried to do with the whole movie was take things that we take for granted and love and turn them on their ear.
So it's old even in Solo
Which means it's nearly a hundred years old in TFA
Lincoln Rivera
i kinda hoped they wouldnt fuck with it
Hunter Foster
>Kinda like how you’re more likely to get pulled over if you’re driving a Lamborghini
what a fucking joke, these people cant even fathom how detached they are from the rest of the world. that's the glaring reason they cant write a story worth a shit, they cant even imagine what it means to live for the majority our own world
Jose Hughes
oh i know the beginning like where it was built and that it has a "mind" of its own
and that it had a couple of owners and was suspended in space for a good while before some gangster owned it
>thats where the compartments that they were hiding in come from.
Ayden Evans
>aerodynamic >frictionless space travel At least make the attempt to think
Elijah Fisher
Stop worrying there's a reason for it
Spoiler
Liam Morales
>Thinking Han and Chewie wouldn't modify their ship at all over the course of ~10 years.
Okay.
Ryder Price
I knew they would do something fucking retarded.
Sebastian Edwards
>aero >space
Great bait though. Heres another (you)
Landon Nguyen
Its to sell more toys just admit it.
Landon Ramirez
>continuing to shit on the fans
This movie deserves to flop.
Sebastian Parker
Betting they go through the Kessel Run and they have to knock off any extra weight so they can go faster or some shit even though it makes no sense.
Sebastian Hall
the ship should be decades old before han even sets eyes on it. they can bin the Eu but they shouldnt retcon the falcons history
Nolan Ward
God I fucking hate star wars
Cooper Brown
be glad they diddnt just make it twice as big and twice as fast. audiences need that wow factor
