10 Times Star Wars Gave Fans EXACTLY What They Wanted

Let's face it, Solo: A Star Wars Story won't go down in history as one of the most universally beloved tales ever told in this galaxy far, far away.

But that's not to say that every aspect of this prequel feature can be deemed as a complete and utter failure upon a rewatch. In fact, arguably one of the most mythical stories ever to tumble out of a much-loved character's mouth was finally and brilliantly realised on the big screen in Ron Howard's space-adventure.

After years of banging on about his trusty Millennium Falcon being the mighty ship that was able to make the perilous, multiple-black-hole-boasting Kessel Run in under 12-parsecs, Disney finally rewarded fans with the concrete evidence of the legendary Solo genuinely pulling off the mesmerising feat within their 2018 outing - thanks to an inspired shortcut, of course.

Sure, the origins of the titular icon's last name, among many other frustrating elements within this dud of a flick, may not have excited the masses. But you'd be lying if you said you weren't even a little bit thrilled by this sequence of Solo finally living up to his legend.
