Lucas tinkering makes the whole scene ridiculous. If Greedo shoots first then why would Greedo risk his life confronting Solo in the first place. He could of shot Solo when he turns the corner and delivers his body to Jabba.

That is the one and only scene that stuck out in my mind that way
I never saw or heard much about the movie the first time i watched it, and i thought he would end up being an evil murderer

Because Lucas is a left-wing scumbag who did not want to see pre-emptive use of a blaster (firearm) as a legitimate response to a serious threat of death?

Nothing is more ridiculous than Spielberg replacing all the guns with walkie talkies in ET! There’s lame and then there’s WTF!

Exactly.

One thing I’ve noticed about Lucas is he can’t admit when he’s wrong about something. He digs his heels in and comes up with some cockamamie explanation as to why it is that way.

I mean JJ Abrams has more growth than George. Abrams admitted that he went overboard on his lens flares in movies, and would not do that in the new Star Wars movie.

Can anybody tell me if the black guy in the new movie is a bunch of PC BS or is he a reasonably placed character?

Han distracted Greedo with his left hand as he unholstered his blaster and git it ready and then blasted him from under the table when it was clear that Greedo intended to kill him. Nothing cold blooded about it and definitely justifiable. I was just thinking about the whole “Han shot first” thing a couple days ago. weird.

When Greedo sat down at the table, Han Solo was no different than say...Raylan Givens sitting at the table with Tommy Bucks, for example, and whatever happened next was Justified.

Cuz he's a liberal and can't stand that he made a movie that had a preemptive strike in it. Han shot first.

I’m so glad I bought the collectors edition of the first three Star Wars movies on lazer disc before they got buggered up.
