This is what the book actually says:
"Carbon-freeze chamber hood contains retrieval tongs for lifting a sample carbonite sled for inspection or demonstration for new customers."
What is the name of this book?

It's this book. http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Locations-Star-Wars-Inside/dp/0756614198/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1244988748&sr=8-1

You mean there's more of this stuff? Damn you George Lucas! ;)
That particular example never gave me quite the same baffling head-scratching uncertainty as the 'Carbon Chamber' location did. It's an instance where I'll be glad to see Adywan show a version that will clarify things a little more, eventually. I'm happy to unlearn what I thought I'd learned about it, if need be. :)

A classic. Some of the pictures are gone, but the bulk of the info is still there.
My outlook on life - we’re all on the Hindenburg anyway…no point fighting over the window seat.
Yeah've I read that site on the falcon a lot, what's cool is some guy is gonna build a full scale falcon with full interiors, although it may take him years to complete it.
really? now that would be a sight, but wherew would he place it? o.0
Great place for taking female star wars fans for a in"flight" star wars: revisited movie and a dinner? :p
Star wars: Revisited. is now on facebook :)

That site is excellent! Thanks for the link, Ziz! :)
that is a cool book. i enjoy seeing how much larger the location really is. such as the battle of hoth.

That would be amazing - I'd travel a long ways to go see/walk around in that. It'd have to be substantially larger than the film's depiction of the Falcon (that is, the "full-scale" models for SW and ESB).
I don't think it would be substantially that much larger than you think. Larger, yes, but not hugely.

That's what she said. Ta dum pish!

me and my friends use that line all the time! nothing new, but its a classic! ;)

Really? Watch ESB again, all the scenes where they walk on and around the Falcon - then watch SW, the scene where they hide under the floor ... there doesn't seem to be room for them to stand up straight inside the ship based on the ESB/SW exteriors, but hiding underneath the floorboards would be completely impossible. Not to mention the cockpit set where the interiors were shot was 40-50% larger than the cockpit for the "full-size" Falcon used for exteriors. I'd say it'd have to be substantially larger.
At any rate, this is all very off-topic now. Again.
Continuity errors of the interor sets being bigger than the outside of the falcon never bothered me, but the vane wing thing does, so I'm glad ady is addressing it.

So, something you see during half of the trilogy (The MF) being out of proportion doesn't bother you.......but something you see for less than 30 seconds (Vane Wing), that's slighty unusual in design, drives you crazy?!?!?!
You definately are a true Star Wars fan.

In fairness, the Falcon is much less glaringly out of scale than the vane.
The Falcon is mega cool (despite, or because of, its overall weirdness). That outweighs any goofy scale problems. ;)

For one thing, it is probably impossible to fix that continuity error, and it doesn't look that out of proportion to me.
I totally agree. But (yes, there's always a 'but'), I don't care that the Vane looks weird either. But, that's the way I roll I suppose.
I guess this would be a good time to point out that the snowflake on Chewie's foot is out of proportion, too. :P

Come on, Simone, let's talk about your big 'but.'

If everything was explained to the audience then what's left for their imagination? Maybe we could get a cameo of Ric Olie in this scene working in the vane and explain everything to the audience?. lol
Finally! that's wat i try to tell people when they question a movie they see because they don't understand how it worked. Not everything in a movie needs to be explained people!
we're arguing over a weather vane! Wow! we should argue whether the AT-AT's lasers should be green or red.
Already done that... and the asteroid fart... and the blue vs. grey TIEs... and... is there anything else left? I think other than Ady posting an update or 2 every so often, this thread is getting needlessly filled up.
The weather vane/ vent pod/ whatever the thing is called debate happened about 4 months ago (more or less) with lots of pics from Vaderios, myself and others. I frankly would just leave the shot alone, and that way we can all imagine the carbon chamber where we would like it to be. I just don't want to see the pod changed to the point where it looks goofy and takes me out of the movie - because in order for the carbon chamber to fit in the top of the fin, that sphere is gonna have to be about 3 to 4 times bigger (considering the set is roughly 40 to 50 feet wide, with another 10 to 20 feet around it to account for the blue fog and the need for a gantry for Leia and Co to walk on to it. Compare a roughly 60 to 80 foot sized set to the 12 to 15 foot wide pod during the "Vader attacks Luke after he falls out the pod window" scene)
Because ye carbon of freezing chamber can only be in one of three places:
here:
here:
or here (yes, I know this is ruled out, but just putting it out to show the concept):
Regardless, I will patiently await to see what Ady has in store.

I always thought they were crouching under the floor with maybe 4 feet of room, I've seen some diagrams that make it seem not so outragous, I don't think the cockpit was that much bigger than the exterior set, maybe 25 percent bigger. But also from the page above is how things can fit.

Scroll halfway down to see how people could fit in the falcon.
Sorry off topic!
Watching parts of ANH again I realized that the exterior of the Millenium Falcon changes perspective a lot. Obviously they used a lot of differnet sized models but the thought was always subconscious, it never really registered with me until now. Some shots look tiny like they could only crawl inside of it like in docking bay 94, but in other places like the hanger bay on the Death Styar it looks enormous like the whole set could easily fit inside of it. Either way it was never distracting and pulled me out of the movie like the Carbon Chamber did.
