How did she not know what the millenium falcon looked like?

>she said it was a famous ship
>she could name the pilot and co-pilot
>she lived literally meters away from the junkyard where the millenium falcon was
>she called herself a scavenger, so she would have familiarized herself with different ships and ship types
>when Bala-Tik informs the first order he says that they are in the millenium falcon, assuming that the first order knows what it looks like because it is common knowledge
>Rey finds out from Han-Solo, after she had been on the ship and flown it, that she is on the millenium falcon

don't question it, there's a million plotholes

>the millenium falcon is some special snowflake unique ship
>not just a common model of freighter

come on now, op

Bad writing

There you go, happy now?

>when Bala-Tik informs the first order he says that they are in the millenium falcon, assuming that the first order knows what it looks like because it is common knowledge

Yeah, cause they got two Death Stars BTFO by the Falcon. Rey doesn't have that experience.

If I saw a Dodge Charger in a junkyard, I wouldn't assume it was the General Lee.

Yet she knows who the pilot and co-pilot were and she's heard that it did the kessel run in 14 parsecs (which is wrong).

So she wouldn't also be curious what it looks like?

The YT-1300 freighter is the battered old pickup of the Star Wars galaxy - there are countless thousands of them out there. What were the chances that *that* piece of garbage Unkar Plutt got his hands on was *the* Millennium Falcon. She'd *heard* of the Falcon, but the chances that it was literally sitting in her backyard, that she had helped Plutt work on it, were astronomical.

The First Order's main errand boy was Ben Solo. He'd know the Millennium Falcon because it was his parents' old ride.

No but you might at least make a passing mention of the general lee when you saw it.

Then how did Han Solo and Chewbacca know they found their Millenium Falcon? If there are countless thousands of them, why wouldn't Solo just get himself another one?

I mean she didn't know that freighter was THE Millenium Falcon. She probably thought it was just another random freighter of that model.

Well maybe the type of ship that the MF is is less distinct than a muscle car. Maybe it's like a ford transit.

>how do you know which car is yours when you get into a parking lot
You can't be this dumb, right?

I drive a grey Toyota Yaris. Never had a problem recognising it.

because the falcon is a heavily modified on the inside version of your average space truck

it doesn't look like anything special, that's the point

it's a smuggler ship

>She probably thought it was just another random freighter of that model.

From the SW wiki
ts aged appearance belied numerous advanced modifications to boost the ship's speed, weapons and shield, including a hyperdrive engine among the fastest in the entire galaxy
> At some point over the following thirty years, the sensor dish was replaced with the base rectangular model which was originally supplied with the ship.

She was a scavenger, so she would have noticed all the modifications and the fact that it looks different than any other YT-1300 out there, because it is unique.

Are you just going to keep speculating about the mindset and potential suspicions a fictional character may or may not have had? You're really grasping for straws here.

>somebody modded their ship
>Yep, it's definitely the ship that Han Solo flew, and blew up the Death Star II with, nobody else would dare replace that sensor dish.

>OP trying to save face by nitpicking the responses to his "stupid autist asks stupid questions" thread

Just admit you were clueless that the Millennium Falcon was a common freighter design, stop trying to save yourself by desperate arguments, and move on.

>hmmmm user, I want you to put your face right here, and smell. Don't lick, don't taste, just smell.

what do?

OP here. Shit, you're right.

They should have shown at least another millenium falcon-looking ship somewhere in the original trilogy.

>not reading the countless EU wikis and expanding your knowledge outside of the OT
>not doing homework on entertainment

Are you some kind of pleb?

..aaaaand they did. In the prequels. Episode III. As a cameo.

Also, the poor sod that gets force-choked by Ben Ren mentions that they took off in a "Corellian YT-1300 freighter", so they DO mention it's a common model in the movie.

>why did leia ignore chewie?
hen chop him up witg hiber?

the force awakens is the star wars equivalent of neopolitan ice cream

If the Dodge had the registration information of the General Lee like all Star Wars ships have, then what?

I thought she had a fat ass.

Jew Jew even admitted on twitter that he fucked up with Leia ignoring Chewie.

She does now. That pic is like from December 2015 /January 2016.

This was by far my biggest problem with the movie. I was unbelievably angered by the choice to have Leia hug Rey instead of Chewie.

Why the FUCK would she hug a complete stranger rather than one of her best friends and Han's lifelong friend and companion? How is it possible nobody pointed out how stupid that was before the final cut??

Unkar Plutt owns the Millenium Falcon. He also adopted Rey as a child, which you can see in the forceback.

Come on dudes.

Because Chewie isn't a human and by definition worth less than a female.

>why does poe make joked right after his friend was killed?
sometimes in serious or intense situations, you're so overwhelmed with emotions all you can do is laugh or crack a joke
>how does bb8 roll on sand?
alien technology
>why doesn't rey have any friends on Jakku?
shes a loner and doesnt need anyones help
>why would rey give a shit about a Droid? Luke connected with r2 only after r2 saved his life
she was lonely and figured a driod would keep her company while she waits for her parents to return
>why would fin keep poe's jacket if it's hot as hell and he thought poe was dead?
because it's something to remember him by
>why are the tie fighter pilots such shitty shots since they're no longer clones?
you try shooting a highly fast moving target that is shooting back at you
>why when they sweat in the movie they don't bead sweat, just look oily?
this is the definition of grasping at straws
>why does kylo wear a mask when the rebels know who he is?
to intimidate
>why did that chink steal all of leia's lines?
huh?
>why did chewie only fire once at kylo?
because he hit him and the planet was exploding and they had to get out
>why didn't kylo freeze fin then chop him up with his saber?
why didn't vader freeze luke and talk to him? why did palpatine freeze luke and kill him? if you think too much about the force it breaks the movie
>how did chewie know where rey and fin were above all those snowy trees
it wasnt far from where han died
>why did leia ignore chewie?
j.j admitted he dun goofed.

I dont see how this would be a bigger fuck up than having some robot wake up on a plot device, giving you the missing piece that EVERYONE IN THE FUCKING GALAXY AND MOVIE IS LOOKING FOR.

Then right after this we get to see the resistance wave as the random girl FLIES OFF WITH HER DEAD HUSBANDS SHIP ALONE TO FIND THE ONE PERSON EVERYONE IN THE GALAXY IS LOOKING FOR.

How do people defend this movie, its so shitty I cant even fathom what the writers are thinking.

>why doesn't rey have any friends on Jakku?
shes a loner and doesnt need anyones help
>why would rey give a shit about a Droid? Luke connected with r2 only after r2 saved his life
she was lonely and figured a driod would keep her company while she waits for her parents to return

See how these kinda cancel each other out?

She also told the soccerball that it was supposed to leav in the morning yet cared that its masters jacket was stolen when her life involves scavaging parts from dead soldiers ships. Including wearing their helmets.

She would at least have an interspecies relationship with an alien. She looks too hot be friendless or boyfriendless.

You just said she don't need friends. Why then have some shitty Droid around then? If she needn't friends she would've made bank on it.

Logically it doesn't add up.

It's a shitty movie

...

Han modified the living fuck out of the falcon, not to mention the radar dish thing he replaced after lando fucked it at endor. I think he'd recognize his own work

That thing didn't even make it into the movie but got a Lego set.
And OF COURSE she is driving it. Not the ex-stormtrooper.

Ayy lmao. I knew this would happen. Star Warsfags defend this shit like hardcore Christians do the Bible's inconsistencies. I'm just shocked he didn't explain the leia chewie not hugging part. Sometimes even when the writer admits he fucked up, Star Warsfags still create some halfassed logical explanation. Too funny

That's EP8

That's a still from the deleted scenes of EP7

nuh uh

yuh uh

>Every question is answered logically
>"S-stupid shills! Y-you're just making excuses!"

it goes back to the origional meme when luke said "THAT's the millennium falcon?" all those legends make it sound like doesn't look like a piece of a junk

>he can't appreciate poetry

yet we've only ever seen 1 falcon ever
