        First thought it was a hair on the screen, but no its a hair on the face. Sounds like that hair will be getting it’s own show soon.

    I thought they built the falcon in it’s entirety with full interior at pinewood studios and then had the 2/3rds version for on sets away from pinewood?

      the falcon interior is sets, they don’t film inside a full size ship.

        They should do – imagine if they did a Star Wars experience down the line like the Harry Potter Studio Tour!

          I believe the interior dimensions don’t match the exterior dimensions of the ship, again for filming reasons. If they build a full size ship that you could walk around In, it would have to be larger than the full size prop!

            True. It would need to be about 50% bigger prop and the cockpit-corridor needs stairs.

    I though he was going to talk about the hidden batmobile under the falcon but oh well.

    That EW media player is awful. No excuse for that crap in this day and age surely. Feels like 15fps.

    If there is one thing Star Wars doesn’t need is dumbed down explanations of things.

    Can’t for the movie to come out, and can’t wait for this “piece of the pie” crap to die down

    Anyone else here but me want to see a Fresher in this new trilogy? We’ve never ever seen one bathroom in a Star Wars film and we’re 7 episodes in!
