You've no doubt seen the leaked photos from the Star Wars Episode VII set that have been published by TMZ. Amongst them you can see a new Millennium Falcon prop being built and prepared for filming. Well J.J. Abrams took to Twitter to respond to those pictures in a very awesome way...

"I wish people would stop leaking photos from Episode VII. And making ridiculous claims that the Millennium Falcon is in the movie. – JJ"In case you didn't pick up on it, his handwritten note is laying on the top of Dejarik table. You may remember that it's a sort of holographic chess game which is played by Chewbacca and R2-D2 in Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. Where does the game take place? Why in the Millennium Falcon of course!
It's good to see he's got a sense of humour about these things. That might have been a nice approach to have taken during the filming of Star Trek!
But really, of course the Falcon's gonna be in Episode VII (duh!). They are hardly likely to bring Han and Chewy back and not feature the Falcon. Right?
