Ah, the part where Rey is more familiar with modifications her boss made years after Han lost the Falcon. Yeah, that doesn’t make any sense at all.

Look, I don’t need the condescending tone. Your point is noted, though it doesn’t seem like Rey really knew all that much about it otherwise. A minor quible and I get everyone clawing at my throat.

Condescension aside though his point is valid.

I agree. I hadn’t thought of it like that, though I’d rather Rey not undercut Han, the mentor character, pretty much right as he’s introduced. Story-wise it’s a bit odd to me. It’d be like if Luke had corrected Ben about the travelling methods of the sand people.

I actually agree. I didn’t dislike it for any sexist or “marysue knows better than Han” type reasons, or even that it didn’t make perfect sense story wise, I just didn’t like it for tonal reasons. I just felt it was a bit annoying/cheap. If it had been placed later in the film after we were passed the “holy shit it’s Han solo back in action again” phase I probably wouldn’t have minded it at all.
