Of all the things to complain about this one is dumb.

We all know Han won the ship from Lando and he's a flashy kinda guy.. It would make perfect sense that his personal ship would be modified to something sleek, unique and what have you.. Thus giving us this design set before us.

Han upon winning said ship and having questionable work ethic would be inclined to modify it back as to not stand out from other yt's.


OR

I could be completely wrong.. who knows

except the millennium falcon is famous for it's design and being a piece of shite, that's what's appealing about it along with the person who flies it. after 30 years off screen they introduced it with rey saying "that one's garbage"

say what you will about abrams and TFA being a straight rip off reboot, he understands the appeal of star wars.

Ummm.. B/c maybe we wanna see the game that won the Falcon to begin with and the significance they'll place on the dice..

No it's not.. It's a YT1300 there were literally 100's of thousands if not millions of them made.. They were like the F150 of Star Wars.

If they give the Legends recount of this particular ship then sure.. It will all depend on the source material they decided to use.

This was a joke for star wars fans plain and simple.

Well the books are gone. We met Han in Star Wars when the Falcon had been his for a good while and on a downside of his smuggling career.

We know Lando is flashy, even without the Lady Luck canon anymore. He probably had the Falcon set up as a pleasure barge and sex appeal.

Han knocks of the added room, adds smuggling cubbies, and makes her an even faster but less identifiable freighter again. You gotta remember Han at the point we met him and chewie was a truck driver who just lost the meth he was supposed to be dropping off.

it won’t look cool which is why people, normal people, dig it

One line really sums up the appeal... “it’s the fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy” it’s a total piece but in an endearing way like the guy who names his 30 year old piece of shite car People in the movies are never impressed but the owner thinks she’s a beauty...and so does the audience in this case because space ships aren’t real so we don’t know any better.

Put that man in a dress and high heels plastered in make up and make him jimmy kick a storm trooper with his Stilettos.

I want to see tongue - in Lando’s arse.

Just get it over already.

It’s not impressive, they’ve just used the SJW playbook used in everything these people infiltrate and infest. Star Wars is a slice of America but people who hate America have control of it and have ruined it.

I will immediately walk out the theater and demand my money back if they change this history. Just me thinking this is a possible outcome should tell anyone how much Disney a screwed up so far.

It’s bad enough that the falcon isn’t a hunk of junk, looking pristine in the trailer, they had to make it blue and fill in the front mandibles

But, just think of the merchandising possibilities. Now they can sell one with a detachable front center portion and different color stickers to change the trim color scheme.

Don't you believe in free enterprise.

One is really forced to wonder this, but a lot of the SJW shite is just marketing posing as "inclusion" and a crutch for having no real creativity.

han was just bullshitting him and talking up his ship or maybe he did, who cares? but now we have an origin thank god to explain what those modifications were, and of course they're all superficial

well we know there were som mods he did. but they werent working as they got caught int he tractor beam. but he can out run Star Destroyers where most ships cant (when it works, Thanks R2).
