"Solo: A Star Wars Story" A space western that focuses on the human Han Solo! ※note! Contains spoilers.

Stories connected to the Star Wars canon

The script was written by veteran Lawrence Kasdan and his son Jonathan Kasdan. Lawrence has previously written scripts for ` `Star Wars: Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back,'' `` Star Wars: Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, '' and `` Star Wars: The Force Awakens .''

Naturally, Han's canonical setting and past events mentioned are cleverly incorporated into the Solo story. To give specific examples, the story includes the story of winning the bet with Lando Calrissian, a skilled The Mule, and acquiring the Falcon, and the story of meeting Chewbacca, who becomes his lifelong partner. It's going to get worse.

Among these elements that connect to canon history, the most notable is the story in A New Hope where Han brags about the Falcon's performance, ``flying the Kessel Run in 12 parsecs.'' The Kessel Run is a route to the planet Kessel, and the parsec is a unit of distance (1 parsec = 3.26 light years). As is well known among fans, this line was created when Lucas mistook parsecs for speed. Enthusiasts later came up with the idea that the Falcon used its navigation system and hyperdrive navigation to cover the distance in an unprecedented 12 parsecs. This "12 parsecs" story appears once in a conversation between Han and Rey in "The Force Awakens," but in "Han Solo," the anecdote of "12 parsecs on Kessel Run" was finally made into a movie. .

The rare situation in which fans gave a logical interpretation to a small mistake by "creator" Lucas and incorporated it into the storyline of a new work is also unique to "Star Wars," which has built a strong fan base. You could say it's an anecdote.
