And since Han and Fett have knew each other prior to ANH, they might bring back Alden Ehrenreich as well.
I keep hearing fans say this and state it as a matter of fact. That there’s some great rivalry between the two or whatever. But there’s no evidence of that at all in either ESB or ROTJ. Just going off the films alone it would seem Boba Fett was just doing the job he was hired to. Heck, and while it’s canonicity is questionable, his very first appearance clearly depicts Han as having no idea who Boba Fett is.
Well, the OT never specifically states how Han got the Falcon either, other than that he “won it” from Lando. Yet certain details of the game has become part of a general consensus of sort. Same goes for the Kessel Run, or how Han saved Chewie from slavery. The OT never gave any details, yet since the 90’s SW fans have just known how these things happened. And from what I’ve gathered the movie didn’t stray too far away from the Legends versions either. Likewise, I don’t thin that the new EU will stray away from the idea that they both knew each other prior to ANH.
(Plus, as much as I love *The Faithful Wookiee" cartoon, it’s canonicity was vague back in the day, and just plain irrelevant nowadays.)
I find it amusing that they mentioned Teräs Käsi, considering how generally negative opinions are about that game(though I guess that might be part of the joke). (Did anyone else get the impression that the EU stuff might be Jon Kasdan’s work?)
Teräs Käsi as a martial art has spread out quite a bit into other projects since its initial introduction. Though it did get a laugh out of me in the theater. And yeah, I think all the EU stuff was Jon mixed with some consultation with the Story Group.
Yeah, I know. I’ve already come across Teräs Käsi is several Legends books I’ve read, I just find it amusing to think that someone unfamiliar with Legends might now google it and end up learning about, maybe even playing, that weird game.
Over-all I enjoyed every obscure EU and Legends easter-egg in this movie.
