This is NOT intended to represent a reservation I have about using the Falcon ending shot. This is such a nerdy thing to say that it would have rightfully been shouted down by people if this had been in the movie.

But…

The Falcon leaping right into hyperspace within a few seconds of taking off makes Han’s efforts to escape from Mos Eisley in ANH seem overly cautionary. (Doesn’t seem like entering hyperspace from within an atmosphere or planet’s gravity would normally be a good idea.)

BUT, it’s a perfect visual ending for the story. Just felt obliged to throw a neckbeard comment in for devil’s advocacy.

There’s only one example in canon of a ship entering hyperspace from within a planet’s atmosphere (in Clone Wars) but it was an accident. I think it’s generally not recommended, but I’m willing to bend the rules of the universe in this case since it’s such a perfect shot.

only a test,
I have to improve it

Looks great, but that’s a LOT of shots you’d have to replace his hair in.
