Here’s a thing I noticed while watching the Star Wars trailer yesterday. The Falcon has a new satellite dish. Below you can see what it used to look like (taken from A New Hope) and what it looks like in The Force Awakens.

It’s completely different  At first I thought “that’s a weird thing to change, but OK, the Falcon got an upgrade since Return of the Jedi.” And then I remembered:

Oh right. It neededa new satellite dish. 

I like how Han was like, “Well, since that last one almost killed me, maybe I’ll try one with a lower profile.”

From The Mary Sue’s chatroom:

<Susana> but the thing is, han wasn’t even flying it when this happened

<Susana> Lando was

<Susana> so now I’m imagining the conversation where Han’s reaction isn’t that lando is alive or that the death star is gone or the emperor is dead or anything else

<Susana> YOU BROKE MY SHIP

<Susana> Lando: Han, I whacked off a totally superficial part of it –

<Susana> Han: MY SHIP

<Susana> Lando: – while I was DESTROYING THE DEATH STAR –

<Susana> Han: I JUST BOUGHT THAT SATELLITE DISH

<Susana> Leia: Han, the Rebels can get you a new dish.

<Susana> Han: MY SHIP

<Susana> finally chewbacca picks him up and starts petting his head

In fairness, Lando DID say, “Not a scratch”.
