STAR WARS EPISODE VII's Millennium Falcon Has Reportedly Been Built Already

Despite there being rumors for a few months now that the Millennium Falcon would appear in Star Wars Episode VII, it would actually be more shocking if it didn't appear. However, Yahoo is claiming that it has actually been built already.

Yahoo Movies is reporting that the Millennium Falcon which will appear in Star Wars Episode VII has already been built. With more and more casting rumors coming every week, that means filming isn't too far away. That also means they are going to need to get some of those props built, so it isn't completely wild to consider that the Millennium Falcon has started. But apparently it is completely built already? The ship that somehow managed to make Kessel Run in less than twelve parsecs is also supposed to be even bigger than it was in the original Star Wars trilogy.

"A full-scale 1:1 Millennium Falcon has been built as well as the interiors of the ship for filming," they explained. "The Falcon is done - inside and out. The sets were built off-site, ready to move when Lucasfilm/Bad Robot were ready to move into Pinewood."


It is possible, but until Disney or Lucasfilm confirm the return of the Falcon, nothing is official. However, considering Harrison Ford is expected to return as Han Solo, it is more than likely that his space ship and arguably one of the most iconic space ships in movie history will make an appearance. And also, that recently released picture of R2-D2 also reveals that props are being worked on, and some even being finished, so it is quite possible this is true. Well, let's just lay back down and wait for more news regarding the sequel to one of the most popular movie trilogies of all time, Star Wars.

Less than twelve parsecs? I don't believe you, that's impossible.

Alright you sorry ass fan boys, it's time to pull your heads out of your asses and learn something. The Falcon can make the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs because the navicomputer in that ship is amazing.It would be like having a car that could get you from New York to Los Angeles in less than a thousand miles.

Kessel is situated near a cluster of black holes. In order to go in, pick up the spice, and get out, you need to have a navicomputer that will be able to keep you away from the black holes. The Falcon's navicomputer is good enough to get them in closer than anyone else, hence, they don't need to take the long safe way around like most smugglers do. Basically it's like having GPS in your car that shows you roads others simply do not know about.

Here is the scene that I want:

Male Lead: Ok let's punch it

*Hyperdrive fails*

*Chewbacca Roars and gets out of his seat*

Female Lead (to Chewbacca): Again? Wait! You mean this has happened before!?

Yeah, I could see that same scene as well.

Well, as soon as they knew the Falcon was in the movie, they would've started building it. It doesn't need to be designed. It is the exact same design as the original movies, inside and out. So big deal - just like the R2-D2 shot we saw.

@ShallowDeadpool - Nicely explained, hopefully that will clear things up for some people. It's not unlike saying you can beat someone at chess, in under a certain about of moves. Han can beat the Kessel Run in 12.

@yingyangpalms - yeah jeez...bloody Disney, taking the time to give us teases of info to get us all excited about their movies that we come to this site everyday to talk about. Assholes.

@ShallowDeadpool - Boy, I bet you're the just the life of every party with those FUN facts aren't ya? Maybe you could EXPLAIN how the force works? ...oh wait, too late.

@Starblazed - Honestly I just don't understand why that is so hard for people to understand. It's one of the most bitched about things from A New Hope and it's really quite simple when you think about it... Oh I get it why it's so hard now. It would require all of you mouth breathers to think. A thousand pardons, please.

This is getting ridiculous. Ok, here's what we know about casting so far..

* R2-D2 has been "cast"
* The Millennium Falcon

No word on actual PEOPLE yet. Oh, except for the "American Idol Star Wars" tryouts on the street.
