Revealing mistake: When Han tricks the three Star Destroyers into running into each other, it cuts to the bridge crew of one destroyer being knocked around by the impact. You can see one of the officers in the 'trench' section (the lower level of the bridge) bump into one of the consoles and knock it askew, revealing it's actually a lightweight prop. For added humor, the officer that was sitting at said console then subtly tries to push it back into position before the scene cuts.

More quotes from Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back
Trivia: The Special Edition covers of Return of the Jedi and Empire Strikes Back are wrong. The picture of the Emperor on ESB cover is from 'ROTJ', and the lightsaber duel between Luke and Vader on the cover of ROTJ is taken from 'ESB' (notice Luke is in his fighter pilot suit, and Vader is fighting him one-handed)
Question: Why does Han irritate Leia so much?
Answer: Because Leia is trying to bring down an evil empire while Han keeps trying to charm her. Also she sees potential in him as a leader and fighter instead of just a mercenary smuggler.

Answer: Star Wars being for the young and the young at heart, Han and Leia's relationship unfolds in a deliberately childish manner that kids can relate to and adults will find comedic. Leia is irritated at herself for her attraction to Han, and certainly unamused that Han teases her over it, while at the same time he is not brave enough to admit his own feelings, either.
