From the “How long does each Star Wars film span” conversation that’s clogging up the Rouge One thread…

TESB spans several months, almost a year.
I’d say a few weeks at most.
Could you both give more details about how you see the time passing? What makes one of you feel like it’s months and the other just weeks? This is really interesting.
In my head canon, the Millennium Falcon's trip from Hoth to Bespin took several months travelling at sublight speeds. Time dilation kept the crew from experiencing that amount of time, so that’s why they didn’t arrive starved/dehydrated/really grungy.
Or, they just ate, drank and took showers while living in the Falcon…
I’ve always felt that Empire takes up a month or two.
