...han's feeling of not seeing "her" (the falcon) again

That 'feeling' was supposed to make it seem like something would happen, and make the climax more exciting when they actually made it out alive.

There's just something about these "feelings" that make some people think. Like Obi-Wan saying to Anakin, "Why do I get the feeling that you're going to be the death of me?" A feeling that (from a certain point of view) came to pass decades later. And the occasional "I have a bad feeling about this," that is accompanied by the situation somehow becoming worse that it was before.

So while I still like the "happy" ending with the Falcon making it out of the Death Star II before it explodes, I agree that the Facoln's destruction and the death of Lando would contribute to the continuity of the whole "I gotta a feeling..." thing.
