Re: Bandai (& Reboxed as Revell) 1/72 PG Millennium Falcon
I'm literally talking about the rammed in iconography. Falcon? Dice? Blaster? Chewie? Lando? Job with the hutts? Kessel run?
All those very basic things about han were established in ANH and ESB.
And they felt that they had to throw them all in here.
I think it would have been a much better film if they didn't do any of it. Did that need to be the Kessel run? If it wasn't, then we would have a larger character with a larger story.
But chosing to ram it all in actually strangles the story somewhat.

I'd love another solo film. I really liked the character a lot. (The only character thing I hated was lando's costume. In ESB it's established that he's dressing like a businessman, not the scoundrel that he used to be)Actually, I want one more Solo film because I don't think he's quite the man he is by the time of ANH. He's nowhere as cynical and world-weary as Ford's character. He's still the "I have a good feeling about this," guy. But it's a moot point because we'll never get that movie. So, as a one-off stand-alone origin story, I'm glad it ticked off enough boxes that it left me satisfied.
