Wel, Luke had a little Jedi-training, is it not?

It's several weeks at least. Luke would need the time to train and as for the complexity of how the heck Han made to to Bespin without his hyperdrive...

Several weeks?
Darn, that's long, isn't that too much?
What's the distance between Bespin and Hoth?

Well, they are two different star systems, so at least a light year apart at the very minimum...

But how fast is the MF without the hyperdrive?

Well, can't be any faster than light-speed, can it?

Sadly, this is a bit of a continuity error.

For young children there isn't a time between them. So I think that's not good.
If EpII is going to be 6 months, I hope they make it CLEAR!!!

I remember this board discussed the issue of the time each movie took not long after I joined this place. I remember a lot of people saying that they rather liked the fuzzy time issue in ESB; by ignoring the timing he could concentrate on the important bits of the story.

Which I guess is fair enough, but there is still something wrong with the Falcon getting to another system without its hyperdrive.

What I know about it now, is that it would take +/- a month IF they were quick

Indeed. In fact, that would have to be VERY quick.

There is a map on BTM so you can see they're not neighbours

It has to be a while in ESB. It takes years to properly train a Jedi. It's all that "too old" crap.

Even Yoda couldn't wrap up Luke's training in 48 hours.

There couldn't be a year between that:
otherwhise Han had a beard

Literally speaking it would have taken the MF years or decades to reach Bespin. But you obviously have to ignore that for the good of the plot.

So you leave thr time the MF took to reach Bespin at 'a while', and in this same 'while', and in the time Han was at Cloud City, Luke does basic training on Dagobah. I always thought a few weeks or so was the best time scale to work in.

Give me a few minutes and I have more info

Back!!!
OK, here is the result:

There is between Dagobah and Bespin a difference of 22 hours WITH the use of a hyperdrive.
The distance is unknown, I have to say I don't know how much there is between Hoth and Dagobah/ Hoth and Bespin, but the distance between Hoth-Dagobah is 4 times smaller than Hoth-Bespin

The MF flew from Anoat to Bespin (having hitched a ride to Anoat on the Avenger); any idea about the distances involved there?

Where is Anoat? is it in the same system? If not, wich is close to it?

Anoat is the name of the system and a whole different system to Hoth, which was always called the Hoth system

Han says they are at Anoat when he is deciding where to go and comes up with Bespin (which, incidentally, he says is 'pretty far'😉.

Don't find it 🙁
