Solo How did Homing beacon not fall off the Millennium Falcon during the Kessel Run?

With the damage done on the Millennium Falcon during the Kessel Run, how did the Homing beacon not fall off? Every time I watch Solo it's something I have always wondered.

 

Wasn't the first homing beacon to be installed aboard the ship, the one the Empire installed some years later, in ANH?

 

Because the script says it didn't fall off.

 

The one Enfys Nest attached to the Millennium Falcon, after Lando agreed to take them onto Kessel.

 

Because they had to advertise the Millennium Falcon ride at Galaxy's Edge, and such details didn't matter in the movie.

 

Not only does that not make sense, Solo debuted in theaters on May 25, 2018.

Galaxy's Edge didn't open until May 31, 2019 in Disneyland and August 29, 2019 in Walt Disney World.

 

In 2018, everybody already knew a Millennium Falcon ride was going to be the center point of an in progress Star Wars Land. They needed to advertise that ride. That advertisement was the Kessel Run in Solo.

 

Oh, yeah. Well, then, it’s small, super sticky, and lucky.

 

Speaking as someone who has been on the Millennium Falcon ride at Galaxy's Edge in Walt Disney World, the ride doesn't have anything to do with the Solo movie. The theme of the attraction has to do with Hondo Ohnaka having it on loan from Chewbacca and using it for his business called Ohnaka Transport Solutions.

Also, if anything the main attraction for Galax's Edge which didn't open until December 5, 2019 in Walt Disney World and January 17, 2020 in Disneyland, was Rise of the Resistance.

 

In any event, even if the whole sequence was just an ad for the MF ride at Galaxy’s Edge, why would that have any effect on whether or not a homing beacon falls off the MF during the Kessell Run? It didn’t fall off because the story needed it to not fall off. And it’s not totally unrealistic that it wouldn’t.

 

I never said the Falcon being at Galaxy's Edge was an add for it to promote Solo.

I was also clear and asked why did it not fall off during the Kessel run, considering the other parts of the Falcon that had already fallen off.

So, both those things have nothing to do with each other.

 

I think Bor was referring to my comment.

Of course the story is different. But the Kessel run in Solo was 100% an advertisement for the ride. Rise of the Resistance didn't come until well after Galaxy's Edge had opened. The Millennium Falcon was, and still is, the center point of GE.

And I said it more in jest that anything that doesn't make sense about it isn't going to be explained rationally. They also saw space whales during the Kessel Run. Does that make any sense?

 

Rise of the Resistance was also being advertised before Galaxy's Edge opened and was thought to have been the better attraction, which I personally think it was.

 

It is. But it isn't the center point. And at the time of GE opening, wasn't at all the focus.

 

Just to confirm, I was referring to @MotivateR5D4’s comments, not yours.

Yeah, but not all parts of the Falcon fell off. So it was one of the things that didn’t fall off. We may have just solved this mystery!

 

My mistake.

 

No worries, as I hadn’t quoted.
