I maintain that Han Solo's history is more interesting off-screen. "You've never heard of the Millennium Falcon? ... It's the ship that made the Kessel Run in 12 parsecs." WOW! What is the Kessel Run? Making the Run in 12 parsecs must be such a feat that it has made the Falcon famous! How, what, were, why ... are all questions that you yourself have created an answer for. In your noggin you have created a mini story around this event. Your story is interesting to you, relevant to you, adheres to your SW canon, etc.

What we'll see is some other fella's view, de-authenticating your emotional investment into this trilogy. We now have a little less attachment to the universe because what was uniquely ours has now been stripped.

This is where the original trilogy shone. It gave so many hints to a greater universe and let us fill in the blanks.

What's next? "Ord Mandell: A Star Wars Story"

There is irony here... as there are some that have been complaining about the newest movie leaving these openings. Where is the right balance?

This actually made me think... Han said that the Millenium Falcon was the ship that made the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs... but he never said who flew it, did he? We know he got it from Lando in a Sabbac game. Is it possible that Lando made the run and then Han won the ship off of him after that?

Looks like we get Han in Imperial Officer Armour as well. [Image 6 of 28]

And we get to see the Pyke Syndicate as well. Makes sense as they hold a significant portion of the Spice Trade and hire smugglers for the Kessel Run.
