This article is divided into three parts.

The first part is the original vehicles and units of "Range Solo"

The second part is the sorting out of the eggs, tribute, origins and stalks of "Range Solo".

The third part is an overview of the official novel "Han Solo Trilogy" and the comparison between the novel and the movie.

1. The original vehicles and units of "Range Solo"

Like the previous "Star Wars" movies, "Solo Ranger" has original vehicles and units, including:

A-A4B Truckspeeder (A-A4B Truckspeeder)

M-68 landspeeder

All Terrain Defense Turret (AT-DT)

20-T Railcrawler conveyex transport

Y-45 armored transport hauler

TIE/rb heavy starfighter (TIE/rb heavy starfighter)

Patrol stormtrooper

Wet-weather gear stormtrooper

Range Trooper

2. "Range Solo" eggs and elements derived from other "Star Wars" works

"Range Solo" mentions or expresses a lot of elements derived from other "Star Wars" works. Some are obvious, such as the three protagonists of Han, Chubacca and Lando, the Galactic Empire, the Rebels, the Tilleks, most types of robots, and the Imperial Star Destroyer. Some are easy to overlook, including:

Corella

As the home planet of Han Solo and the construction site of the "Millennium Falcon", as early as in the first "Star Wars" novel in December 1976 and the first "Star Wars" movie in May 1977, Ke Lellia has already been mentioned. For more than 40 years, Corella has been one of the most frequently mentioned or most frequently represented planets in the "Star Wars" derivative universe. For example, in the 2006 game "Empire at War" (Empire at War), Corella was one of the few planets with large docks, while in the 2008 game "The Force Unleashed" (The Force Unleashed) Here, players even witnessed the birth of the Rebel League in Corella. However, these are all "Star Wars" legends. In the official history of "Star Wars", Corella's first appearance is in the novel "The Aftermath Trilogy" (The Aftermath Trilogy). "Range Solo" is the first film and television work to show the style of Corella in more than 40 years. It basically follows the previous setting, that is, Corella is a shipbuilding planet and the capital, Coronet City. .

Kessel

As early as December 1976's first "Star Wars" novel and May 1977, the first "Star Wars" movie, Kosher has been mentioned. For more than 40 years, Kosher has been one of the most frequently mentioned or most frequently represented planets in the "Star Wars" derivative universe. The full picture of Kosher's first appearance in the official history of "Star Wars" and in the film and television series occurred in the first season premiere episode of the 2014 animated series "Rise of the Rebellion" "Spark of Rebellion" (Spark of Rebellion). It is worth noting that there are huge differences between Kosher's settings in legend and official history:

According to legend, Kosher is an irregular asteroid with almost no atmosphere itself, but relies on the continuous emission of breathable gas from factories on the surface to maintain a barely livable environment. There is a spice mine underground in Kosher, under the direct jurisdiction of the empire.

In the official history, Kosher is a regular spherical planet with a livable surface and a complete ecosystem. The spice mine is located in the southern hemisphere and is managed by the Pike people. The northern hemisphere is inhabited by the Kosher royal family headed by King Yaruba.

The Maw

In " Range Solo", the "bottomless pit" is the largest gravitational trap in the Akkadese Maelstrom, a black hole cluster composed of multiple black holes.

The Bottomless Hole was first published in the 1994 novel "The Jedi Academy Trilogy" (The Jedi Academy Trilogy). It is precisely because of its existence that the Kosher route is extremely dangerous. The 2012 novel "Fate of the Jedi: Apocalypse" (Fate of the Jedi: Apocalypse) further explained that this black hole group was created by Killik in "Son" and "Daughter" tens of thousands of years ago. It was built under the guidance of (Daughter), and its purpose is to seal the ancient and powerful dark side creature Abeloth. Of course, these stories are now "Star Wars" legends, not official history.

"Range Solo" introduces the bottomless black hole group into official history. The giant octopus-like creature in space near the bottomless pit is called summa verminoth. It is worth noting that the body of Abelos is also an octopus-like creature.

Kosher Route

As early as the first "Star Wars" novel in December 1976 and the first "Star Wars" movie in May 1977, the Kosher route has been mentioned, that is, the classic lines of Han Solo "Made the Kessel Run in less than twelve parsecs" (made the Kessel Run in less than twelve parsecs). But as to what this sentence means, for more than 40 years, different derivative universe works have given two different versions of explanations:

The Star Wars Technical Journal believes that pilots on the voyage of Kosher must place smuggled spice cargoes between cargo ships flying at a fixed speed. Therefore, in a voyage of Kosher, the distance that the above-mentioned cargo ships travel The shorter, the more the pilot is worthy of boasting.

Novels such as the "Jedi Academy Trilogy" and "Han Solo Trilogy" believe that the smuggling ship must pass dangerously over the edge of the "bottomless pit" black hole group, and only through skilled driving skills and powerful engines can the original at least be shortened. The Kosher course with 18 parsecs.

Of course, the above two versions are legends. As a work of official history, "Range Solo" obviously gives a third explanation-this explanation is closer to the version of the novel.

Mimban

Planet Akizaka is from the first "Star Wars" derivative universe novel "Splinter of the Mind's Eye"-it was published in February 1978. In October 2008, the fifth episode of the first season of the animated series "The Clone Wars", "Rookies" (Rookies) mentioned that the Mud-Jumpers of the Republican Army were fighting in Mingzaka, bringing Mingzaka into official history. But the first film and television work to show Mingban's style is "The Ranger Solo".

Wando

Vando's full name is Vandor-1 (Vandor-1). The name of this planet first came from the 2003 "Star Wars" desktop role-playing game data set "Coruscant and the Core Worlds" (Coruscant and the Core Worlds), is the third planet in the Coruscant galaxy. "Range Solo" brings it into official history. However, according to the official history reference book "The Official Guide to Ranger Solo", this planet is located in the middle of the Milky Way, and is no longer located in the Coruscant Galaxy in the core world.

Savareen

Planet Savarin originally came from the 1993 "Star Wars" desktop role-playing game data set "Galaxy Guide 9: Fragments from the Rim" (Galaxy Guide 9: Fragments from the Rim). The 2017 reference book "The Last Jedi: Visual Atlas" introduced it into official history. The setting of Savarin in the official history and the legend is almost exactly the same, and both are famous for brandy.

Cikrata Star Cluster

The Siklatta star cluster originated from the 1995 "Star Wars" desktop role-playing game supplementary data set "Galaxy Guide 12: Aliens-Enemies and Allies" (Galaxy Guide 12: Aliens-Enemies and Allies). The 2017 novel "Join the Resistance" brought it into official history.

Glee Anselm

The "Glianceelm" mentioned by Tobias Beckett many times was originally a planet created for the 2002 movie "Attack of the Clones", and the relevant plot was later cut out. Nevertheless, it was mentioned in the novel version of Attack of the Clones and the official movie marketing website HoloNetNews.com. In October 2009, the 10th episode of the second season of "The Clone Wars" "Children of the Force" (Children of the Force) introduced it into official history. Grianselm is the home star of Jedi Master Kit Fisto.

Scarif

Han, Kira, Beckett, Dryden and others mentioned "Scarrieff" when discussing where to obtain cores. This is the planet created for the 2016 Rogue One. It was from there that the "Rogue One" team of the Rebel Alliance stole the design of the Imperial Death Star, laying a solid foundation for Luke Skywalker to destroy the Death Star in "New Hope".

Felucia

Lando mentioned "Felucia". Felucia is a planet created for the 2005 movie "Vengeance of the Sith", one of the battlefields of the Clone Wars. It is famous for its bizarre ecosystem.

Carida Academy

The Imperial Military Academy where Han Solo attended is located on the planet Carida. Karida Military Academy was first published in the 1994 novel "The Jedi Academy Trilogy" (The Jedi Academy Trilogy). Before the planet Karida was destroyed by the super weapon "Sun Crusher" (Sun Crusher), Karida Military Academy has always been the most famous military academy in the "Star Wars" derivative universe. The 13th episode of the fifth season of "The Clone Wars" in 2013, "Point of No Return" (Point of No Return) introduced the planet Karida into official history; the 2015 novel "Battlefront: Twilight Company" (Battlefront: Twilight Company) ) Introduced the Karida Military Academy into official history.

Ugor

When Han Solo and Chira just arrived at the spaceport, two people wearing big white helmets could be seen in the crowd. These are two Ugors, originally from the 1989 "Star Wars" desktop role-playing game adventure story "Scavenger Hunt". The Ugo is a single-cell metamorphic race; a Ugo is a large cell, and can change its appearance almost arbitrarily. "Range Solo" introduces the Ugo people into official history.

Crev Bombaasa

Before Han Solo and Chira mixed into the crowd in the spaceport and prepared to line up, one could see a human man with fat, oily face and overcoat in a line of crowds. This man is called Crev Bombaasa (Crev Bombaasa), a transport tycoon. He comes from the 1995 "Star Wars" tabletop role-playing game supplementary data set "The DarkStryder Campaign" (The DarkStryder Campaign). "Range Solo" brings Crave Bombasa into official history.

Santhe

Near the bottomless pit, Han mentioned that the place where he took the Qi La drag racing three years ago was the Sangxi Shipyard. The Sanghi family comes from the 1992 "Star Wars" tabletop role-playing game supplementary material set "Mission to Lianna" (Mission to Lianna). This family originating from the planet Liana is one of the largest arms dealers in the galaxy. The 2016 reference book "Political Propaganda: A History of Persuasive Art in the Galaxy" (Propaganda: A History of Persuasive Art in the Galaxy) introduced the Sanshi family into official history.

Corellian Engineering Corporation

Han told Lando that his father had worked in CEC's factory. CEC is the abbreviation of "Correlia Engineering Company", and its full name was first mentioned in the 1987 tabletop role-playing game book "The Star Wars Sourcebook" (The Star Wars Sourcebook), and the 2014 "Ezra's "Ezra's Gamble" (Ezra's Gamble) introduced this name into official history. Corella Engineering is one of the three largest shipyards in the Milky Way. The other two are Kuat Drive Yards and Siena Fleet Systems. Famous spacecraft such as "Millennium Falcon", "Phantom" and "Tantif IV" are all products of Corella Engineering Company.

Swamp trooper

Han Solo served in Mingban called the swamp soldier, also called the mud soldier (Mudtrooper). This unit originated from the 1992 "Star Wars" desktop role-playing game data set "Planet of the Mists" (Planet of the Mists). "Range Solo" introduces the swamp soldier into official history. According to the "Official Guide to Ranger Solo", the swamp soldiers stationed in Mingzaka belong to the 224th Imperial Armored Division, and are mentioned in the fifth episode of the first season of "The Clone Wars" "Recruits". The 224th troop of the republic was restructured.

The Lando Calrissian Adventures

"The Adventures of Lando Carrisin" was published in 1983 by L. Neal Smith. This book is composed of three volumes, telling the three wonderful adventures of Lando and the robot Vuffi Raa. Although this set of novels now belongs to the "Star Wars" legend, "The Ranger Solo" introduces three key elements of the novel into official history through Lando's lines.

1. Star Cave Nebula

The Star Cave Nebula, also known as the Thon Boka Nebula, originated from "Lando Calrissian and the Starcave of Thon Boka" (Lando Calrissian and the Starcave of Thon Boka). Inside live the giant intelligent creature Oswaft (Oswaft). They look like manta rays, with a body length of 500 to 1,000 meters, and are naturally capable of super-space navigation. In the Star Cave Nebula, Lando Karrisin helped the Oswafts resist the invasion of the empire.

2. Oseon asteroid belt

The asteroid Oseon was brought out of "Lando Calrissian and the Flamewind of Oseon" (Lando Calrissian and the Flamewind of Oseon). The local name is named after the discoverer Gadfrey Oseon. The Ossern Galaxy is one of the tourist attractions of the Milky Way, where many wealthy people live.

3. Sharu people

The Sharu is from "Lando Calrissian and the Mindharp of Sharu" (Lando Calrissian and the Mindharp of Sharu). The Sharu people have developed into a highly developed ancient civilization tens of thousands of years ago, but they deliberately conceal their city, technology and even wisdom because they encountered a more powerful alien civilization. Later, Lando Karrisin discovered their historical records and spiritual harp. After Governor Duttes Mer of the Rafa system accidentally activated the harp, the entire Saru civilization reappeared. This incident once caused a sensation across the galaxy.

Parker

Quay Tolsite, a Pike man, manages the spice mine on Kosher. The Pike is from the fifth season of "The Clone Wars" and is one of the races developed by George Lucas. Their Pyke Syndicate is part of the Shadow Collective, a gang group led by Moore.

Gigoran

While the crew of the "Millennium Falcon" escaped from Kosher, a Gig was seen from the back in the crowd. The tall Gigor originated from the planet Gigor. When they are on an alien planet, they usually wear an interpreter on their mouths. The Gigs are from the 4th issue of the Star Wars Adventure Journal in November 1994. 2016's "Rogue One" brought the Giga people into official history.

Mynock

Leo mentioned "Mynock". Minok is from 1980's "The Empire Strikes Back". In the space slug's mouth, the sudden appearance of Menok frightened Princess Leia. Minok is a silicon-based animal that lives in space and feeds on the power of an interstellar spacecraft.

Bantha

Han and Lando mentioned "Bansar" when they first gambled. Bansar is from the first "Star Wars" novel in December 1976 and the first "Star Wars" movie in May 1977. Bansar is native to the planet Tatooine, but is cultivated throughout the galaxy. Ban Sa is full of treasures: it can be used as a draught animal, meat can be eaten, milk can be drunk, fur can be used as clothing, and feces can be used as fuel.

Kashyyyk and Moof milker

When Han saw Chubaca for the first time in the dungeon in Mingban, he called him a Muff cow milker from Kasik. Kasik is the mother star of Chubacca. It first appeared in the 1978 TV movie "Star Wars Holiday Special" and appeared in the 2005 movie "Revenge of the Sith". It is the most frequently appeared in "Star Wars" works. One of the planets. "Muff Cow" originated from the first story unit of the 1999 comic "Republic". It is a draught animal of the planet Cerea, but "Muff Cow Milker" is a swear word of Chinese. Originally from the 2015 movie "The Force Awakens".

Cloud-Riders

Enfys Nest's gang is called "Cloud Knights." This organization originated from Marvel's "Star Wars" comics Issues 8-10 published from 1977 to 1978. "Range Solo" introduces them into official history. But the cloud knight in the comics has nothing to do with the rebels, and is a pure gang.

In "Range Solo", one of the shuttle bikes that Cloud Knight rides is called "Arrogantus-X Skyblade-221 swoop bike" (Arrogantus-X Skyblade-221 swoop bike):

The name is obviously named after the leader of the cloud knight in the comics-his name is Serji-X Arrogantus (Serji-X Arrogantus).

Rodian

In Cloud Knight, one of the members is a Rhodia. This race originated from the first "Star Wars" novel in December 1976 and the first "Star Wars" movie in May 1977. Gredo, the bounty hunter shot by Han, is a Rodian. For more than 40 years, the Rodians have been one of the most common aliens in "Star Wars" works. They originated from the planet Rodia, and they can be seen in almost every corner of the Milky Way.

Sabat

In Cloud Knight, one member is a Sabbat. This race comes from the second episode of Obi-Wan & Anakin (Obi-Wan & Anakin) in the official Star Wars comic book in February 2016.

Sabacc

Sabak was first mentioned in the novel version of "The Empire Strikes Back" in 1980, but it was not mentioned in the feature film. The 1989 "Star Wars" tabletop role-playing game adventure book "Crisis on Cloud City" (Crisis on Cloud City) determined the rules of the Sabac card. The 2014 novel "A New Dawn" (A New Dawn) introduced the Sabak card into official history.

Dejarik turns out to have ten pieces!

Dejaric chess first appeared in "New Hope" in 1977, when Chubacca was playing against a robot, and there were eight pieces on the chessboard. Their corresponding names are as follows:

For forty years, "Star Wars" fans have only known that Dejaric has eight pieces, but "Range Solo" has updated this setting-it turns out that Dejaric can have ten pieces:

As shown in the picture above, the first eight pieces correspond to the eight pieces in "New Hope", but the red piece No. 9 and the green piece No. 10 have never been seen before.

So why didn't these two chess pieces appear in "New Hope"? In fact, the next shot will explain it. The angry Chubacca swept across the chessboard heavily with his arm, causing the two pieces to be damaged. The first is that the green chess piece No. 10 disappears after a flash:

Then the holographic image of the red chess piece No. 9 is distorted laterally and disappears:

When these two chess pieces disappear, their corresponding buttons on the side of the chessboard also dim after a flash. Therefore, these two chess pieces were actually destroyed by Chubacca.

In the real world, Phil Tippett and Jon Berg, the designers of Dejaric chess, have revealed that they did design more than eight pieces 40 years ago. But George Lucas only used eight of them because he thought it was enough. This time, the crew of "Range Solo" reactivated the two useless chess pieces, and their conceptual models are as follows:

The names of the two chess pieces have not yet been announced.

Bossk

Bosque originated from "The Empire Strikes Back" in 1980 and "Return of the Jedi" in 1983. His race is Trandoshan; his profession is a bounty hunter. For more than 30 years, from legend to official history, he has been a frequent visitor in various works such as "Star Wars" novels, comics, games, and animated series. In the official history novel "Ezra's Gamble" published in 2014, he even worked with Ezra in Lothal to bring down a corrupt imperial official.

Xan

Also mentioned along with Bosque is the "Sister Zahn". The Zahnians come from the 1992 "Star Wars" desktop role-playing game data collection "Planets of the Galaxy, Volume Two" (Planets of the Galaxy, Volume Two). They are a small race. The 2015 novel "Aftermath" introduces the Zahn people into official history.

Aurra Sing

Lando mentioned that Tobias Beckett killed Ola Sheen. Ola Sheen first appeared in the 1999 movie "The Threat of Ghosts" 1 hour 01 minute 10 seconds ~ 12 seconds (according to the Blu-ray version). He is an unnamed audience watching the shuttle race in Tatooine. Although only appeared on the scene for two seconds, and there is no line, but this role is very popular among movie fans. As a result, she became a frequent visitor in various works such as "Star Wars" novels, comics, games, and animated series. She is a mixed race of humans and unknown aliens, and one of the famous bounty hunters. In the 2006 novel "Legacy of the Force: Tempest" (Legacy of the Force: Tempest), she is still at least 91 years old as an assassin. However, this novel now belongs to the "Star Wars" legend, not official history.

Maul

The appearance of Moore is one of the biggest surprises of Solo the Ranger. Twenty years ago, Moore's stunning appearance in "The Phantom Menace" surprised movie fans all over the world. He was the first apprentice of Darth Sidious (Schiff Palpatine), and the first Sith Lord known to the Jedi in a thousand years. During the Naboo army and civilians resisting the invasion of the Trade Alliance, he stabbed to death the Jedi master Kui-Gang Jin with his dazzling lightsaber technique. As the main villain in "Phantom Menace", he was cut by Obi-Wan Kenobi at the end of the film and fell into the abyss.

However, he was not dead. In 2011, he dragged half of his body back in the third season of the official history animation series "The Clone Wars". Later, his mother Talzin fitted him with mechanical legs. Since then, Moore has participated in the Clone Wars as a third-party force, organized the Shadow Collective, and gathered the gangs of the galaxy to fight against the Republic and the Sith at the same time. Park Syndicate, Black Sun, Mandalorian super commando (Mandalorian super commando), etc. were once part of the Shadow Group. Moore once became the ruler of Mandalorian and killed Obi-Wan Kenobi's ex-girlfriend, Duchess Satine Kryze (Duchess Satine Kryze) of the Mandalorian.

After "Range Solo", Moore apparently became a lonely man again. Therefore, he tried to accept Ezra as a disciple in the official history animation series "Rise of the Rebels". However, in the 20th episode of the third season of "Rise of the Rebels" in 2017, Moore once again met Obi-Wan Kenobi in Tatooine. This time, Obi-Wan finally smashed Moore to death—because he did it vertically.

In "Range Solo", Moore's lightsaber seems to be the one in "Rise of the Rebels."

The background music that Moore played during his appearance was "Duel of the Fates", which is the background music for his duel with Qui-Gon King in "The Threat of Ghosts."

Moore’s planet, Dathomir, is his home planet. It first appeared in the 1994 novel "Proposal to Princess Leia". It is one of the most frequently mentioned planets in the "Star Wars" derivative universe. It was cloned in 2011 by "Princess Leia". The 12th episode of the third season of "Human War" "Nightsisters" (Nightsisters) introduces official history.

Both the Moore in "Range Solo" and the Moore in "Ghost Menace" are played by Ray Park. But it was not Ray Parker who dubbed Moore in "Range Solo", it was Sam Witwer (Sam Witwer). Sam Witworth previously voiced Moore in "The Clone Wars" and "Rise of the Rebels", and also played the protagonist "Star Killer" Galen Marek in the "The Force Unleashed" series of games.

Wei Zell (Weazel)

In addition to Moore, another old character from "The Phantom Threat" is Wezel. In "Phantom Menace", he is one of the spectators in the shuttle box, sitting next to Watto, and communicating with Watto from time to time. Twenty years later, in the era of Solo the Ranger, he became a cloud knight under Enfice Nestor.

Wezel's actor has always been the famous "Star Wars" actor Warwick Davis (Warwick Davis). This is the first time Warwick Davis has participated in a Lucasfilm movie directed by Ron Howard after thirty years. The last time was the 1988 fantasy film Willow (Willow).

"Tubes"

According to the "Official Guide to Ranger Solo", there is a mysterious sniper under Enfis Nestor, Tognath, nicknamed "The Pipe". His costume and nickname are very similar to the "Two Tubes" in "Rogue One" Benthic "Two Tubes". The Tognas are a race created for the 2016 Rogue One, and they come from the planet Yar Togna (Yar Togna). On alien planets, they generally wear double-pipe breathing masks to deal with oxygen that is toxic to the Togna. After Yaltogna was conquered and occupied by the empire, the Togna people fled as refugees.

Rio Durant

Leo Durant with four arms is an Ardennian. He was dubbed by the famous filmmaker Jon Favreau. Jon Favreau previously voiced Pre Vizsla in "The Clone Wars"; the official website of "Star Wars" has announced that Jon Favreau will be the executive of the future "Star Wars" live-action TV series Producer and screenwriter.

Ralakili

The person who clashed with L3-37 was Lallakili. He was guest starred by Clint Howard (Clint Howard), the younger brother of director Ron Howard in "Range Solo".

Tam Posla

When Han Solo and Lando Karrisin were arguing at the Sabak gambling table for the first time, Tam Bosla could be seen standing behind Han. Tam Bosla is a character created for the 2016 "Rogue One" and appeared in the second trailer of "Rogue One", but did not appear in the "Rogue One" feature film. He is a police officer from Milvayne. His later story is recorded in the official history manga "Doctor Aphra." It turns out that he is a semi-robot, and most of his limbs and organs have been replaced with machines. He is still a homosexual and a couple with Caysin Bog. Keshin Borg is the headless man on the left side of the screenshot of the official trailer for Rogue One above.

Skullless Man (Decraniated)

On Dryden Voss' spacecraft, the "skullless man" attendant can be seen. They first appeared on the streets of Jeddah in Rogue One in 2016. Most of them were wounded or disabled whose brains were illegally removed. Their brains were replaced with machines, causing them to become thoughtless, semi-robots at the mercy of others.

Mandalorian Armor

Dryden Voss has a set of Mandalorian armor. Jango Fett in the "Star Wars" prequel trilogy and Boba Fett in the "Star Wars" prequel trilogy are wearing Mandalorian armor. For more than 40 years, the shadow of the Mandalorian can be seen in most "Star Wars" works; the Mandalorian is one of the most common groups in "Star Wars" works. The Mandalores mainly live in the Mandalore sector and have a tradition of martial arts, which has a profound influence on the historical development of the Milky Way.

Sith holocron

According to the "Official Guide to Ranger Solo", Dryden Voss has a modified Sith holographic recorder in his collection. He intends to give this Sith holographic recorder to the appropriate funder. The Sith holographic recorder comes from the classic comic Tales of the Jedi (Tales of the Jedi) in the 1990s. "The Rise of the Rebel Army" introduced it into official history.

Mytag crystal skull

According to the "Official Guide to Ranger Solo", Dryden Voss has a Xim the Despot Maitag crystal skull in his collection. The tyrant Sim and Metag crystal skulls are from the 1980 novel "Han Solo and the Lost Legacy", both of which have now been introduced into official history. The tyrant Sim was a prehistoric conqueror before the establishment of the Old Republic.

"Dacing Goddess" (Dacing Goddess)

According to the "Official Guide to Ranger Solo", Dryden Voss collects the "Goddess of Dance". "Goddess of Dance" originated from Marvel's "Star Wars" comics episodes 79, 85 and 99 in the 1980s. It is an important "technical organic machine" called "House of the Goddess". One of the parts. The "House of the Goddess" is located on the planet Godo. It is not only the core of the Godot people's faith, but also suppresses a local virus. Once the "Goddess of Dance" is removed, the "House of Goddess" will cease to function, and Godot will have a plague that threatens the lives of Godot people. Prince Sizo, Lando Carrisin and others have had "Goddess of Dance". Of course, the above stories now belong to the "Star Wars" legend. "Range Solo" and its supporting "Official Guide" introduce the "Goddess of Dance" into official history.

Classic lines

"I have a bad feeling about this" is the second most famous line in "Star Wars", second only to "May the Force be with you." This sentence appears in almost every "Star Wars" movie. But starting from "The Last Jedi", the appearance of this line has changed. In "The Last Jedi", the robot BB-8 said this sentence in binary; in "Range Solo", "bad" became "good".

"Punch it!" is also a classic line of "Star Wars". Han Solo would yell this phrase when he accelerates the "Millennium Falcon." In addition, Cassian Andor accelerated the U-wing in "Rogue One", and Lieutenant Bo Dameron and Conix in "The Last Jedi" accelerated the X-wing and U-55 orbital crane ship, they all shouted "Punch it!"

Lando said to Han: "I hate you!" Han replied, "I know." This conversation was obviously a tribute to Leia's confession to Han in "The Empire Strikes Back". At that time Han was about to be carbonized, Leia said, "I love you!" Han replied, "I know."

L3-37 complained to Lando Carrizin: "They don't even serve our kind here." This sentence is obviously a tribute to a classic line in "New Hope". At that time, C-3PO and R2-D2 followed Luke Skywalker into the Mos Eisley Tavern. As a result, the bartender Wuher said: "We don't serve their kind here." Alluding to his discrimination against robots .

Chubacca's age

In the 2003 "Star Wars" desktop role-playing game supplementary information set "Ultimate Alien Anthology" (Ultimate Alien Anthology), the life cycle of Wookiees is roughly as follows:

12 to 18 years old, juvenile;

18 to 300 years old, youth;

300 to 350 years old, middle age;

Over 350 years old, old age.

Therefore, Chubacca, who is more than 190 years old, is still a young man.

Han's last name

In "Range Solo", Han's surname "Solo" was taken casually by the imperial conscript Drod Munbrin (Drawd Munbrin). But in the "Star Wars" legend, Han is likely to be the descendant of the royal family of Corella. According to the 1994 novel "The Courtship of Princess Leia" (The Courtship of Princess Leia), the entire Corella area was once ruled by the Corella Empire. In 293 years before the founding of the Galactic Empire, the king of the Corella Empire, Berethron e Solo (Berethron e Solo), implemented democratic reforms and put an end to the absolute monarchy in the Corella region. Han Solo is likely to be the descendant of Berethron, but by the generation of Han Solo, the Solo family has long been deprived of noble privileges and has been reduced to low-level civilians. Of course, these are not official history. In the official history of "Star Wars", the origin of Han's surname is based on "Range Solo".

DL-44 Heavy Blaster Pistol

The DL-44 heavy explosive pistol that Tobias Beckett threw to Han was later used by Han for a lifetime, and it appeared in the film's True Story trilogy and "The Force Awakens."

Han Solo's Dice

Han Solo’s dice previously appeared in "New Hope" 54 minutes 55 seconds to 58 seconds (based on the Blu-ray version) and "The Last Jedi".

The head of the "Millennium Falcon"

In the previous "Star Wars" movies, the head of the "Millennium Falcon" had a bifurcated structure. In "Range Solo", we know that there was a detachable escape pod at the front of the bifurcated structure. According to the 2011 reference book Millennium Falcon Owner's Workshop Manual, the front fork structure of this YT-1300 light cargo ship can be docked with a cargo-handling external motor boat (Freight- loading external rover, referred to as F-LER). Kenner had planned to release F-LER toys:

Kenner later cancelled the toy. Whether it is this reference book or this unreleased toy, it is now a legend, not a history. In official history, the head setting of the "Millennium Falcon" is based on the "Range Solo".

Corella VCX-100

When Han first met Lando, he lied that he had a "Corella VCX-100 spacecraft" that could be used as a bet. In the animated series "Rise of the Rebels", which was launched in 2014, the "Ghost" that the protagonist team rides is a VCX-100 light cargo ship.

AV-21

Han mentioned that he had stolen AV-21 as a child. AV-21 first came out of the "Star Wars" online game "Galaxies" (Galaxies), which was launched in 2003 and closed in 2011. It is an expensive and high-performance land craft. "Range Solo" introduces the AV-21 landcraft into official history.

T-15

In the trenches of Mingsaka, the imperial soldiers mentioned T-15 while chatting. In 2016's "Rogue One", two Imperial Stormtroopers also mentioned T-15 when chatting in Scarif. It is not clear what exactly the T-15 in the movie is.

"The armor of Tamtel Skreej"

Care when Beckett arrived in Baie Si Dakota Sher, wearing armor and armor when Lando in the "Return of the Jedi" in the rescue of Han Solo is almost identical. At that time, Lando was lurking in the palace of Jabba the Hutt under the pseudonym "Tamtel Scrige".

Restraining bolt

In the spice mine of Kosher, L3-37 pryed off the restraining bolts on the robot to liberate the robot. The restraining bolt comes from the first "Star Wars" novel in December 1976 and the first "Star Wars" movie in May 1977. It is a device to ensure robot obedience and is very common in "Star Wars" works.

Tak

In the scene of the Kosher Spice Mine riot, when Chewbacca and Wookiee slave "Sagwa" meet to say goodbye, the scene switches to a human slave shouting: "Sagwa! This way!" This human slave Called "Tucker", played by Anthony Daniels.

Anthony Daniels is currently the only actor who has appeared in all "Star Wars" movies. He played the robot C-3PO in the previous "Star Wars" movie. "Range Solo" was the first "Star Wars" movie without C-3PO and R2-D2, but Anthony Daniels still appeared.

On the other hand, the character "Tuck" itself is named after the legendary filmmaker Takashi Fujimoto. Fujimoto Takashi is the cinematographer of "The Silent Lambs" and served as the second film crew photographer in the first "Star Wars" film crew in 1977.

The hug of Han and Lando

Before the second card game, the way Han and Lando embraced is exactly the same as the way Han and Lando embraced in Besping Cloud City in "The Empire Strikes Back".

How Lando lost the "Millennium Falcon" to Han

In 1980's "The Empire Strikes Back", Han mentioned that he honestly won the "Millennium Falcon" from Lando. In the 1998 novel "Rebel Dawn" (Rebel Dawn), the Sabac card game took place in Bespin's Cloud City. But this is a legend, not official history.

Tie Shou Gong

The "Iron Shou Gong" practiced by Qi La first came from the 1996 novel "Imperial Shadows", which is a long history of unarmed combat skills. In 1997, Lucas Arts even released a "Star Wars" fighting game on the PlayStation platform, called "Masters of Teräs Käsi" (Masters of Teräs Käsi). The 2015 mobile game "Uprising" (Uprising) brought iron hand skills into official history. It is worth noting that the 2017 official history reference book "The Last Jedi: Visual Illustrated Code" mentioned that iron hand is one of the martial arts practiced by Snook's elite guards.

Colo claw fish

Dryden Voss offered to ask Han to eat "Colo Claw". The colo claw was originally from 1999's "The Threat of Ghosts". At that time, Kui-Gon King, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Ga Binks were riding a Gungan Bongo sub (bongo sub) through the water of Naboo, in that classic scene In the "Big Fish Eat Small Fish" clip, the colo claw is one of the underwater creatures that attack them.

Valachord

Tobias Beckett mentioned that he wanted to learn "Sanskrit". The Sanskrit is from the official history novel "Aftermath Trilogy". "Snap Wexley" in "The Force Awakens" is very good at playing this instrument.

"Han Shot First!" (Han Shot First!)

Han shot Tobias Beckett before he could finish speaking. This scene echoes Han shooting Greedo in "New Hope". This is a classic old stalk with a history of more than 20 years.

To put it simply, in 1977's "New Hope", Han Solo shot Greedo directly, but in the special edition of "New Hope" in 1997, George Lucas took this In one scene, Greedo fired first, but the shot was missed, and then Han Solo shot back and killed Greedo. (The supporting novels and comics published at that time all obscured this scene, so only the movie was affected.)

This modification has been criticized by many Star Wars fans who are loyal to the original version:

1. The original version can better highlight that Han Solo is a character who is both good and evil. The special edition changes Han Solo into a hero who defends himself and fights back.

2. Greedo is not an Empire stormtrooper. At such a close distance, he can't miss the shot.

In order to quell popular anger, in the 2004 DVD version, George Lucas changed this scene to Han Solo and Greedo shooting at the same time, but Greedo shot a few tenths of a second earlier. This shows that Han Solo really got up early to kill.

As for why Gredeau shot off at close range, there is an explanation that Greedo didn't want to shoot at the time, but his gun misfired.

Since then, "Han Shot First!" (Han Shot First!) has become a classic old stalk widely circulated among "Star Wars" fans and creators, appearing in countless works and events. Even George Lucas himself laughs at himself in clothes with this sentence:

In addition, the direct source of the phrase "Han Shot First" itself is the "Star Wars" derivative universe novel "Han Solo at Stars' End" (Han Solo at Stars' End) published in April 1979. In the novel, Han Solo has a classic line: "I happen to like to shoot first, Rekkon. As opposed to shooting second."

"Galaxy's Edge"

"The Edge of the Galaxy" is Disney's "Star Wars" theme park under construction. It will be opened in three Disney parks in the United States and France starting in 2019. "Range Solo" mentioned two Easter eggs related to "Edge of the Galaxy":

1. Black Spire Outpost

L3-37 mentioned "Black Peak Station" to Lando. Heifeng Station is an outpost on the outer ring planet Batu. Batu was once a busy intersection. However, with the rise of hyperspace travel, Batu has fallen behind, and its reputation has gradually been surpassed by the planets on the more popular trade routes. Today, Batu’s Heifeng Station attracts those who prefer to stay away from mainstream society and has become a busy port full of smugglers, wandering traders, and explorers traveling between the border and unsurveyed airspace.

2. Dok-Ondar

Chira mentioned "Dock Onda" on Dryden Voss yacht. Doc Onda is an Italian collector who specializes in collecting all kinds of treasures.

Power droid

Power robots are one of the most common robots in "Star Wars" works. They appeared in the first "Star Wars" novel in December 1976 and the first "Star Wars" movie in May 1977. In previous works, powered robots are harmless mobile chargers for humans and animals. This time in "Range Solo", a powered robot called WG-22 has been transformed into a destructive gladiator!

Homeless children on the streets of Corella

At the beginning of "Range Solo", Lady Proxima recruited many street burglars in Corella, and Han was one of them. This setting obviously originated from the 1997 novel "The Paradise Snare" (The Paradise Snare). In this "Star Wars" derivative universe novel, a pirate named Garris Shrike (Garris Shrike) also recruits street children to steal on the streets of Corella, and Han Solo is one of them. Of course, "Heaven Trap" obviously belongs to the "Star Wars" legend, not official history. In the official history, Han's early experience is based on "The Ranger Solo".

Terrorize the gang with thermal grenades

At the beginning of "The Ranger Solo", Han used a thermal grenade to threaten Mrs. Pixi. Princess Leia later used this trick too. In "Return of the Jedi" in 1983, Princess Leia, disguised as Bosch, a bounty hunter, also used a thermal grenade to terrorize Jabba the Hutt.

Chewbacca "Tear the Devil"

In "New Hope", Han mentioned that Chewbacca would tear off someone's arm when he was angry. In fact, in "The Force Awakens", there was originally a scene of Chubacca tearing off Angka Pratt's arm in Maz's castle, but this section was cut off and did not enter the feature film. This time, in "Range Solo", Chubacca finally lived up to expectations and tore off the arm of a Kosher spice mine guard in the elevator.

Tatooine and the Hutt

At the end of "Range Solo", Han mentioned that he was going to Tatu because of the service of the big boss. This obviously refers to Jabba the Hutt-he is the supreme leader of the "Hutt Cartel" mentioned by Qila, echoing the beginning of "New Hope" Lihan and Chubacca Circumstances. It was his later experience in Tatooine that changed Han's life, allowing him to gradually grow into one of the heroes of the rebels who overthrew the Galactic Empire.

2. "Han Solo Trilogy" novel overview

"Han Solo Trilogy" was authorized by Lucasfilm to publish in 1997 and 1998 by Bantam Books. The author is the late science fiction writer Ann Carol Crispin. Before the establishment of the new canon of "Star Wars" in April 2014, this set of novels is considered to be the most important work that introduced Han Solo's life before the original trilogy film. Now, this novel belongs to the "Star Wars" legend. In a sense, it can be considered as the "original" or the main source of inspiration for "Range Solo".

"Heaven Trap"

The savage pirate Garis Schreck strictly manages his spaceship "Merchant's Fortune". Among his illegal hooks, one is to recruit street children, let them beg and steal for him. This is how the 9-year-old Han Solo was put on the "Merchant's Fortune" for the first time. Later, Han showed other talents, the most notable of which was his reckless and skilful driving of the shuttle. On "The Merchant's Fortune", Han was mainly brought up by Wookiee chef Durana. She made Han feel warm and taught him the Wookiee language. When Han was 19 years old, Durana sacrificed to protect him from Schreck. This forced Han to escape from the "Seller's Fortune". He sneaked aboard the automatic cargo ship "Elesia Dream" with barely enough oxygen, and came to the tropical planet Elesia in good health.

Elisia is a religious sanctuary run by the Telanda Tir priests. Pilgrims from across the galaxy come here to experience "ecstasy"-a state of pleasure evoked by subsonic harmony, which is sung by the Telanda Tir. In fact, the harmony of the Telanda Tir people is very much like a hallucinogen, and this religion is a cult. Addicted believers are forced to work hard in the spice processing plant to create profits for the Besadi clan of the Hutts.

Han Solo witnessed the drudgery of the spice processing factory indulging in "ecstasy."

Han's driving skills made Trenza, the high priest of the Telanda Tir, very satisfied, so he was hired by the Telanda Tir as the pilot of the spice cargo ship. Han refused to reveal his real name, so he changed his name to "Vick Drago". In the process of traveling around the colonies of Elisia, Han became obsessed with the "pilgrim 921"-her original name is Bria Saran, also from Corella, and later indulged in "ecstasy." Han tried to prove to her that "ecstasy" was just a hoax. Although Brea was willing to believe Han's words, she couldn't quit her addiction to "ecstasy". Han used his influence in the Trenza organization to turn Brija from a more uncomfortable job to an archivist, specializing in managing the large art and antique collections of the Tranda Tir.

Han realizes that he is in love with Brea and wants to escape Elisia with her. Han ransacked Trenza's treasure, and set fire in the spice processing plant to distract others' attention, so as to take advantage of the chaos and Brea to steal Trenza's starship "protective symbol" and escape.

After selling Trenza's belongings, Han and Bria made a fortune. They hope to start a new life together. Han came to Coruscant and signed up to join the Imperial Military Academy, but when he returned to his residence, he was heartbroken to find that Brea had left him a note. It turned out that Brea could not get rid of the addiction of "ecstasy" and was forced to leave him. Misfortune did not come singly, Han was also ambushed by his old enemy-the vengeful Garris Schreck fought Han and almost defeated him. As a result, the old pirate was killed by a bounty hunter who hunted Han. The bounty hunter was killed by Han in turn. Han put on his own clothes on the anonymous corpse, gave the false identity of "Vick Drago", and burned his face. Since then, he has restored the name of Han Solo as a cadet in the Imperial Military Academy.

"The Hutt Begins"

At the age of 23, Han Solo graduated with honors from the Imperial Military Academy in Kalida and received the rank of lieutenant. A year later, he stunned the imperial officer Putt Neclas in order to rescue a Wookiee slave named Chubacca.

Han rescued Chubacca from Putt Neklas.

Although Han was expelled from the imperial army, he gained a friend who followed him all his life-because Chubacca owed Han a "life debt". With the help of Marco Spins, an old classmate of the military school, Han rose to fame in the smuggling circle, and everyone knew that he was an unparalleled pilot. After flying over the Kosher route several times at very short distances, Han attracted the attention of Jabba the Hutt.

Fleeing from Elesia caused Han to still have a huge bounty on his head, so he was targeted by bounty hunter Boba Fett. Fett shot a poison dart at Han, temporarily paralyzing him. But a young gambler saved the smuggler. He is Lando Carrisin. Lando used the same poison dart against the pay special, turning defeat into victory. Neither Han nor Lando were cruel killers, so they didn't kill Fett, who was unable to resist, but spared his life.

Lando wanted to hire the best pilots. He also wants to be a pilot. So he gave Han a new spaceship in exchange for Han to teach him to drive the spaceship. Han named the new spacecraft "Bria".

The lawless Hutt space has increasingly become a stain on the security and order of the empire. For many years, the governor of the constellation, Saen Hild, accepted bribes from the Hutts, turning a blind eye to the shocking acts of bribery and lawlessness. After the emperor personally asked him to conduct internal rectification, he planned to betray the gold master and severely crack down on the infamous "Smuggler's Moon" Nasada. The Hutts were eager to prevent any imperial actions that would affect their business, and sent a human messenger to Coruscant to meet with Hilde. This messenger is 26-year-old Han Solo.

Han was shocked to discover that his ex-girlfriend Brea Saran now seemed to be Governor Hilde's mistress. This incident disturbed Han and failed to dissuade Hilde. But Han learned that General Winster Grilanx would command the Imperial Task Force to attack Nasada. As a result, the Hutts turned to bribe General Grilanx to let him divulge the offensive plan, so that the Hutts could organize the smuggler fleet to implement targeted defensive strategies. Han's "Bria" and Lando's "Millennium Falcon" both participated in the battle as part of the smuggler fleet. After the defeat of the Empire, Governor Hilde committed suicide, and Han witnessed General Grilenx being strangled to death by Darth Vader.

"Dawn of the Rebel Army"

While Han Solo was still proving that he was an unparalleled pilot and smuggler, Brea made outstanding contributions to the establishment of the early rebel organization.

In Yuncheng, she met with the leaders of the Alderaan resistance movement and urged them to form an alliance of rebels. She also met with the Wookiee underground organization in Kashik. She even led several attacks on the slave camps of Elisia, although she was still overcoming the mental damage caused by her "ecstasy" addiction.

Han Solo won the "Millennium Falcon" from Lando Carrisin.

Han experienced many things during this period. At the age of 27, he won the "Millennium Falcon" from Lando Carrisin in the fierce Cloud City Sabak Tour. Afterwards, they rushed to Kashyk, and Han was surprised to learn that the 198-year-old Chubacca had married a Wookiee woman named Maratobak. In addition, their employer, Jabba the Hutt, is becoming more and more powerful in the underworld.

The start-up uprising movement needs funds to maintain operations. Brea decided to turn to the Desiligic clan of the Hutts to help the insurgents fight against the rival Besadi clan's business in Elesia. On the interstellar flight "Queen of the Empire" bound for Nasada, Brea met Lando Carrisin and discovered that he was one of Han's friends. Before she could ask Lando about Han's current situation, Boba Fett appeared and captured them both. Fortunately, Lando’s ex-girlfriend Dreya Rental brought a group of pirates on board, and Brea and Lando escaped. Brea admires the resourcefulness of these underworld people and realizes that they can play a big role in the fight against the empire and Elesia.

Bria Saran

Bria finds her lover ten years ago, now 29-year-old Han, and asks him to recruit smugglers to join her mission. Brea promised that the smugglers would be rewarded generously after the incident. Han then lured Lando into the task. In the short reunion, Han and Bria's love rekindled, like glue. Unexpectedly, after Elisia's cult was eradicated, the Rebels confiscated all the spoils because they were preparing to launch a large-scale military operation against the empire and urgently needed funds. Lando and the other smugglers, who had found nothing, thought Han had lied to them, and broke up unhappy after a quarrel with Han. And Han also felt that Brea had betrayed him.

Han Solo abandoned Jabba's goods.

Han, earnestly earning money, took on a dangerous transportation mission for Jabba to fly over the Kosher route. As a result, the unexpected appearance of the Imperial patrol forces Han to abandon his cargo. This caused him to owe Jabba a large sum of money. Despite this, Han and Chubacca set a record for completing the Kosher route within 12 parsecs in this mission.

At the same time, Brea and her blood team intercepted the Death Star chart sent to Toplava. Then, they sent the blueprint to Princess Leia Organa on the Alderaan consul ship "Tantif IV." The imperial army surrounded Brea and her rebel spies. Knowing that she would be tortured after being captured, Brea took poison and killed herself before the Imperial Army caught her.

The day before he met Obi-Wan Kenobi and Luke Skywalker at the Mos Eisley Bistro, Han learned of Brea’s death. Surprisingly, Boba Fett told him the news.

Comparing the movie "The Ranger Solo" and the novel "Han Solo Trilogy"

As Han’s boss and mentor, Garis Schreck in the novel was obviously split into the two roles of Madame Pixi and Tobias Beckett in the movie. Mrs. Pixi, like Garis Schreck, adopts homeless children and sends them to the streets to steal. Of course, Garis Schreck is a human who travels in space, and Mrs. Visi is a Grindalid who hides underground. Tobias Beckett, like Garris Schreck, let Han Solo see the cruelty of the underworld, and was finally killed by Han Solo himself.

In the novel, Bria Saran is split into two heroines in the two recent "Star Wars" biography movies, namel

    Sure enough, if you don't expect it, you won't be disappointed with an unparalleled personal biography! ! Lando is handsome and handsome! He is the last owner of the Millennium Falcon! ! I used to laugh at the ugly male protagonist! ! ! I was wrong! ! ! Apart from the inexplicable transformation of the heroine, I can’t find anything wrong. The fan filter is so thick.

    In order to make up for the regret of not having laser sword fighting, let Darth Demon appear in Bright Sword and leave the tail of the sequel.. For me, who only watched the live-action movie version, I am really embarrassed. Can this product be cut back in the past? That Dooku is so pitiful that his head was chopped off... So Snooker will be resurrected in Star Wars 9 too, right? Long Howard was in danger and was unable to save the boringness of the film, and even worse was Bettany. This month, he was killed by Disney on the mainland screen three times...5.5/10
