Solo: A Star Wars Story - 10 Best Moments

1. Han Wins The Falcon

Solo's final scene sees Han and Chewie tracking Lando down to a tropical location where, true to form, he's playing a game of sabacc. Lando, who previously abandoned the team in the Falcon, feigns relief at seeing Han alive, and Han hilariously threatens to have Chewie rip his arms off.

Han uses a trace amount of coaxium to buy his way into a sabacc rematch, but this time Han comes prepared. Han sneakily steals Lando's sleeve cards, and though Lando still plays a killer hand, Han manages to one-up him with a better one, before showing Lando the card he somehow lifted from him.

Cut to Han and Chewie aboard their newly-earned Falcon and making final preparations to head to Tatooine and meet a "big shot gangster" who is most certainly Jabba the Hutt.

After the mid-movie troll-job where Han didn't win the Falcon, it was a great closing moment to see him finally obtain his beloved vessel (with the final shot showing his iconic dice hanging in the cockpit).
