Sorry bro. Most of his lines are delivered very well, but it distracts me every single time I hear him say things like "therearen'tanybasesaroundherewhere'ditcomefrom" because there's just no rhythm to it.
It looks like an Imperial Cruiser, our passengers must be hotter than we thought; try and hold them off, angle the deflector shield while I make the calculations for the jump to light speed.
What a mess. All of his lines in the Falcon seemed like he was just trying to say them as fast as possible, while the lines themselves seemed written for a slower delivery.
Exactly what I mean! He just blurts them out and you have to stop for a second to analyze what he said because there's no emphasis or... effort, really... put into certain lines. I feel like the "oh, he was under extreme duress" line to be a pretty lame excuse; it's a movie, not real life, and I know I've put more effort into what I'm saying in a tense situation than he did there; regardless, the actor could try it again, the director could choose to do another take, or the editor could use a better take.
It's weird, because he delivers fast lines on the Falcon well half the time, and he does fine in the other films, but just certain ones he flubs (in my opinion) and it just throws me off.
