10 Times Star Wars Refused To Give Fans What They Wanted

4. The Original Trio Reunite - The Force Awakens

Along with the unleashing of a number of brand new faces set to lead the franchise throughout its latest trilogy, The Force Awakens also promised the return of three of the most beloved characters and actors the Skywalker Saga had ever boasted.

And while it was positively delightful to witness Han Solo and Chewbacca coaching the next generation, and the legendary smuggler sharing a few loving moments with Leia throughout Episode VII, the fact the central trio of the Original Trilogy didn't find themselves sharing the screen together for even a few seconds in this Sequel starter was borderline unforgivable in the minds of those who lined up with hopes of seeing the icons reunite back in 2015.

And fans weren't alone in their desire to see the OG heroes share a moment together either, as Mark Hamill himself would also reveal how he wished he'd been given the chance to step back into the Saga earlier than he did in TFA, too, telling Fandango's Erik Davis at Star Wars Celebration in 2017 that not having Han, Luke, and Leia join together for one last moment in the twin suns was a "missed opportunity".

You can say that again.
