Poor Greedo

At that range Greedo was a pretty sorry shot....but I don't blame Harrison Ford for not wanting to be first to shoot...it would seem kinda cruel.

I think he was threatened enough to justify the shot!

And I am sure what we got wasn't QUITE what HF envisioned... I think he wanted a bone fide gunfight.

Like in the old Westerns????

That would have been cool but not very Star Wars...er...ish

well, if stormtroopers can miss, why not in HS and Greedo's fight?

We did get a little bit of a gunfight before the Falcon lifted out of Mos Eisley you know......

and at the rate the stormtroopers and Han hit eachother 🙄

Did anyone have a problem with Han shooting Greedo? Did it make you think less of Han Solo? That's what I don't get. Greedo was going to kill him anyway so how can Lucas and Ford think it was wrong for Solo to kill him?

I thought it was very good that he shot Greedo first, that gives you the pic that he isn't an easy-going guy, so his scene where he saves Luke was for that reason more loveable...

I agree, KJ. Like I said, Greedo had gone WAY past the point where Han should have to wait for him to fire! That was a clear threat. Han looked cool in the original, now he looks silly.

What's "Now????"

what do you mean?

Ush said Han looked cool in the original, but "now" he looks silly.....what's the original...does he mean in the original scenario or what?

no no, with the original they mean the movie A New Hope from 1977 and NOT the A New Hope, Special Edition from 1997.

In the original movie, Greedo DIDN'T shoot at Han, Han just shot him to pieces

ohhh cool..... 🙂
