I'm surprised that the retcon people at Lucasfilm haven't tried to somehow explain Hell or Falcon now that you mention it. But like Lord3vil said, none of these things really bother me - I can accept that the scriptwriters simply slipped up when they had Han say 'Hell' and Millenium Falcon sounds cool so whatever...but a Fifties diner on Coruscant?! Come On!! Where were the bad idea police when that one was conceieved?


Sayings are easly overlooked. I can forgive the lamest dialouge around, but entire scenes are harder. Plus, using too many 'alien' sayings can get confusing. You have to use them in a context were they are obvious what they mean. A movie could spend more time explaining the saying to the audience than its worth. So use a familiar earth saying, and move on. If Han Solo says "then I'll see you in hell" you know what he means. If the line was "then I'll resaturastas askaseas" You would have no idea what he meant.

But the 50's diner to me was just too much.
