I get why they used Luke and Leia’s theme for Lando and Jannah. It’s John Williams’ way to let us know they might (or may as well) have a family connection. To me it’s the only thing in the film that steers me away from “lol wtf smoothie Lando is hitting on this 19 year old.”

Oh god, you’re right. I always thought Billy Dee misread the line, and made it way too seductive. John Williams is the only thing in the film trying to push the “family” angle for them. God bless John Williams, trying his best to salvage the scene.

If I make my own version, I’ll cut the entire exchange; but I don’t think that would fly in this edit. 😉
