Did his character have any importance at all besides being black? It seems like the only purpose he has in the movies is to show you there's a black guy in the movie.

I have altered the deal. Pray I don't alter it any further.

But Han Solo has far more screen time than him and he actually has a purpose in the movies. Everything about Lando's character could have been done by some random person.

Blowing up the second Death Star and handing Han Solo over to Jabba the Hutt totally isn't important at all.

I don't care what you guys say about Lando "not being needed."

Most suave motherfucker in Star Wars.
