I think everyone knows what this ship is or what movie this ship goes with. This is my most favorite ship in Star Wars and I was so excited to see it again all the scenes that featured this ship was amazing and if you're a Falcon fan like me you will not be disappointed with all the Falcon scenes in The Force Awakens. I remember when I saw trailer 1 for The Force Awakens and they showed the Falcon I was so excited I was thinking it'll be cool seeing Han Solo (Harrison Ford) make the Falcon flip through the sky on Jakku (if you saw the trailer you know what I'm talking about) come to find out it was Rey (Daisey Ridley) making the Falcon do that when her and Finn (John Boyega) were being chased by the Tie-Fighters. There was a funny comment that Rey made that sounded a lot like Luke (Mark Hamill) said in A New Hope when he saw the Falcon for the first time he said, "What a piece of junk" well when Rey and Finn were running form trying to find a ship Rey says they can get away in a quad jumper and Finn points to the Falcon saying what about that ship and she's like no that's garbage and just thought that was really funny. There was also a couple of "easter egg" on the Falcon too the first one was when Finn was working on Chewbacca's (Peter Mayhew) arm he's pulling out supplies and he ends up picking up the Jedi Training Droid that Luke was using in A New Hope when Obi-Wan (Alec Guinness) was training him aboard the Falcon. The second one was when Han was thanking Finn for fixing up Chewie and telling him he's got some guts and when Finn says your welcome and thank you he rests his arm on what he thinks is just a table but its actually the holo game Chewbacca, C3-PO (Anthony Daniels), and R2-D2 (Kenny Baker) were playing in A New Hope when they turned it off in EP. 4 they never turned it back on so it just picked up where it left off which I thought was very cool and I'm really glad J.J. wanted that in the movie. Now in future movies the Falcon will be really different without Han. What I think they'll do now is Rey be the main pilot and Chewie remain the copilot which will be hard to get used to. So two thumbs up to the Falcon in The Force Awakens.
