Contentious Star Wars Edition

Star Wars is the reason I’m writing.

So it would be almost criminal for me to ignore Star Wars day.

However, do you remember this photo, above?

My opinion?  Greedo didn’t shoot at all.  I saw the original edition of the movie multiple times (heading into the three digit range), and I know it backwards.  In the original edition Han shot the dude because he threatened to take his ship away from him.

It was only the later editions that added in digital images of Greedo taking a shot at Han first, in order to make it look a little more politically correct and make Han look more heroic.

Personally, I like the original version.  It matches his true character better — especially at the beginning of the movie before he got wrapped up in saving a princess….

May the 4th be with you!
