Did you watch the 2nd clip I posted? Han isn't drawing his weapon and firing all that fast, it certainly isn't slow, but it certainly isn't Quickdraw-McGraw impressive. While Cyclops is shown raising his hand and firing pretty damn fast, not that raising your hand quickly is really an impressive feat since many a person could do it.

Well, I feel his drawing was pretty fast, his reaction time seems slow, because of cutting though.
I suppose Cyclops is a well trained superhero, but still, Han probably draws more often than Cyclops....cyclopses.

You see his hand move down and draw the pistol, it's clearly shown and it wasn't all that fast. Go watch it again, you'll see.
You think Han draws his gun more times than Scott raises his hand? I'm almost tempted to give you an "odd" response to that.

But I watched the DVD and several times earlier, XMEN and ESB, and Han indeed appears faster.
Cyclops lives in a school, a school he attended, I think he's had many, many years of training his hand raising since....it's a school. I've raised my hand to answer questions, even those competition questions that teachers at times ask to see a hand first. I'm sure he can raise his hand faster than an above average man can draw a gun and fire. Granted Han is fast, but he's not "touch my temple to shoot shit" fast.
Well, by that same token, Han has been using a blaster for his entire childhood, and then received military training when he joined the Imperial Academy and became one of the best. He then continued to use one as a smuggler. So... he's been using a blaster for 30+ years. It's as much a second nature for Han to raise and aim his gun as it is for Scott to put his hand on his head and shoot. Han's actually been doing it for a lot longer as well...
Well, I think people are looking at this kind of the wrong way... Han Solo hasn't survived as long as he has by shooting blindly at someone as they through the door.If Han is aware of Scott's presence and they're in a cantina, then that means that there's loads of cover and people to hide behind around, etc. It's not really like an old western were they walk down the street and draw. I mean, what's the difference between Scott and a squad of Stormtroopers who already have there rifles aimed and and just need to pull the trigger? Not a whole lot... yet Han has mowed down more Stormtroopers then one would think possible.
Forgot something else, though. If Cyclops also knows that Han is in the cantina somewhere, then he is probably not going to walk in with his hands at his sides; he'll be ready for trouble. Even in the movies, when he's entering a known dangerous area, he usually holds his hand at the side of his head. So... he'll probably walk into the Cantina the same way, which means that all he has to do is aim and press the button.
I'm not exactly sure who wins. It can certainly go either way, but with the above thought in mind I'd say Scott might take it 6-7 out of ten times.

Han also has to aim well before firing. Cyclops can just remove his visor while looking in the general direction of Solo.In Xmen, Toad snatches his visor and Cyke destroys the whole roof of the train station.
Area of effect attack peoples, aka "Get off my lawn".
What would be the point of vaporizing half the people in the Cantina when you only need to do kill one man? He doesn't have super speed and your beams move at lightspeed. He's not going to dodge roll out of the way. Besides the extra second needed to take off his visor might earn him a bolt in the eye.
Cykes doesnt walk in ready to fire, read the opening post, Solo spots him first. Cykes knows Solo is somewhere in the Cantina, and as usual wont harm an innocent, so he is not just gonna open fire when he sees Han.
He tracks Solo down to a cantina on Tattooine.
Solo, aware of Cyclop's intentions, draws his Blastech DL44 and opens fire.....

However, if Han automatically gets to shoot first then Scott is dead 10/10 times. Han's aim is nearly dead perfect.

Pretty much, I was under the impression that it was a western style quick-draw the way RJ made it seem.
However, even before there's a chance to say: "Look who's at the door!" Cyclops can just aim with sheer sight. He takes this one.
Also RJ, I'm not sure what you think lightning fast is. Lightning fast is incredibly fast.... I know it's a figure of speech, but you make it seem like time stops while Han draws his gun...
