Star Wars: Solo Super Bowl Trailer Reactions - 5 Ups & 2 Downs

3. The Falcon Mythologising

As even the most poorly equipped Star Wars fans will know, the Millennium Falcon is as important a character in the Han Solo story as Han and Chewie. It's the most iconic ship in the LucasFilm franchise and it deserves to be venerated as such.

This prequel is as much the story of that ship as it is its pilot, and the trailer here knows exactly what it needs to do to that end.

We don't see much of the famous craft, but the way it's framed suggests that we're going to greet the old friend of a ship with the same wide-eyed wonder and enthusiasm as Han does. We're going to see the ship a new way after it previously arrived on the other side of its own legend.
