Archivista Goldenyoreins Legends let some really wild and inconsistant things through. A lot of the magic of Star Wars came from the fact the audience had to be seeing the story. When using written storytelling, one tells more than they show. Writers wayyyy “overtold” the force and the galaxy. I don’t mind the Holdo Ram from TLJ (though I dislike most of how they got to that point), but a solid portion of the stories had crazy and sudden stuff similar to that go on. IIRC, one story described Grandmaster Luke as being fast enough to seem as though he was wielding 30 lightsabers at once. Stuff they could likely almost never really show on live action film without looking just bad or forced.

1:12 That's where I want the Han Solo movie to take place, in Ord Mantell it is also the great opportunity to give a little bit more of screen time to various bounty hunter's like, Boba Fett, Dengar, Bossk, maybe Cad Bane, or Zuckus and 4-LOM but I think they're not taking that path. Which is starting to worry me a little bit, but what I heard is that they're going to explore Han's origins along with Lando and the Falcon and Chewie too in which case I'll be ok. I guess we'll have to wait and see.

I've seen so many sources say the car accident is the reason for the wampa scene, but I've also seen many say that's a myth and that Hamill confirmed the car accident didn't damage his face that badly and that the scene is unrelated. Anyways, I think the scene matters more as giving a sense of the treacherous hoth and luke's first telekinesis (one of my favorite moments to this day)
