I don’t tend to get too fussed about the amount of time that passed between the escape from Hoth and the heroes’ arrivals at Cloud City. After all, if I did that, I’d remember that it should take a few million years for Han and Leia to get to Bespin without a hyperdrive.
Exactly. But if you want to rationalize things, they could have been couple of weeks on the asteroid fixing things and waiting, traveling to Bespin could have taken a couple of weeks, the time in Bespin before Vader’s dinner could have taken a few days, between the dinner and carbon freezing could have taken a few days… So if you reeeally want to stretch it out, there can be 2 months in there.
