Did you know Harrison Ford went off script and ad libbed that part?  The original line was just the generic "I love you"  "I love you too", then he gets frozen in carbonite.  Ford was like "nah fug that, that's not Han Solo... that's cheesy as hell".  Lucas told him that's the way it was, then Ford proceeded to rebel and surprise everyone with the "I know" line during filming.  Pissed George Lucas off at first but he eventually gave in once everyone on set agreed it was much better.

Things like that are a huge reason why the prequels weren't anywhere near as good.  George Lucas had complete authority over everything and no one dared challenge his word or offer constructive criticism to his vision in order to improve things.  He'd become something of an egomaniac after all the success of the OT.

I've read before that Harrison Ford really disliked the Han Solo character and had no intention of ever playing the role again (primarily because George Lucas writes horrible screen plays).  Supposedly, he was convinced to come back for one last shot because (1) money and (2) he was promised that the character was going away forever this time.

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      You joke, but it can always be worse. He might walk with a limp or need assistance. Different sport, but Lonzo Ball couldn't even walk up steps a year after his injury.

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      By Icege · Posted

      I mean... a lot of the information that could've helped set better expectations has always been out there: There was no RB on the team under contract for the 2025 - 2026 season except for Miles Sanders. The team did not have a second round pick going into the 2025 season due to the trade for Young. Chuba's extension did not happen until the beginning of November. Jonathon Brooks was the clear RB1 in the class with a massive gap between RB1 & RB2. Example: Dane Brugler had Brooks as RB1, overall #48; Blake Corum was RB2, #81 overall. The Giants held pick #47 and had just lost Saquon Barkley to the Eagles in free agency. They were going to take Brooks had the Panthers not jumped in front of them. So if we're framing things with that context: Chuba was expected to be RB1 Miles (at the time) was RB2 Brooks was essentially RB3, stashed for rehab in 2024 with a long runway. The original injury occurred Nov 2023 while the re-injury occurred December 2024. That is right in the high-risk window for recurrence, especially in explosive athletes. The fact that it also happened on a non-contact play suggests possible biomechanical issues such as muscle imbalance, rather than a failed surgery (or bad decision-making).   NFL teams invest heavily in medically vetting prospects. If there had been a clear red flag in imaging or recovery markers, the team is going to find it. This sucks and the Panthers have sucked, yes, but this wasn't blind optimism or malpractice by the front office. It was a calculated decision based on the roster, draft capital, positional scarcity, etc.

      Clowney released

      Yep, but they can all rotate with Brown, Brown and Robinson (sounds like a law firm). Can't continue to have Derrick Brown out there for 90+ percent of the defensive snaps. An injury was bound to happen.
