Back in 1977, American audiences attending the opening days for the original
Star Wars in cinemas leapt out of their seats and applauded the screen when Han Solo took us and the
Millennium Falcon in its first Hyperspace jump. Now, that same classic visual effect (the 'slit scan' technique, also used in
2001 and for the Classic
Doctor Who TV series titles of the Tom Baker era) continues to enthrall fans young and old with its promise of exciting and memorable adventures to come, of which the new
Solo: A Star Wars Story satisfyingly delivered those goods, what with both Han
and Lando Calrissian gamely at the trusty ship's controls.
