Default Han Solo shoot-first scene to be edited once again for SW "Hexology" release.

First, let's remember the original version:


Then came the desecrated Guido-shoots-first-and-misses version:


Finally, I present you the "commemorative" "Hexology" version:

lmao at that last one.

Solo was always meant to be a bit cold when he pre emptively disposes of greedo, that was the whole point of introducing his character at that time in the film and that scene showing the sort of 'roguish' dealings he was involved in.

Damn you George, for spoiling those precious memories I have of a youth spent watching Star Wars so many times that I can practically quote it verbatim. I saw one of the latest reincarnations/remasters or whatever, and there were some lines of dialogue that just didn't fit with how I've always known star wars to be.

He should have been happy with touching up some of the post production effects and cleaning up the sound a bit and left it at that.

Rumour has it that George Lucas has brought out the rights for some of Hitchcocks old films and is remaking them, the first of the films he's been working on is the classic Psycho.

Here's a from it

Also, the added bonus -

When Psycho was mentioned in the same sentence as George Lucas, I thought I was going to see "Janet Leigh stabbed first!"; but that was much funnier.:rotfl:

Lucas is a dick. If he stuck to the stories he originally copied them from like hidden fortress instead of making some disney type pap people might watch some of the later movies.

This thread has made me angry

:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

I got the first sentence, and agreed too. The rest, well, I guess I'm lucky that I'm not really able to understand British slang. I'm would need a translator to understand that.

??? Pap=rubbish, the rest is a reference lo Lucas ripping off story lines from Kurosawas films. Perhaps punctuation would have helped . Trouble is a bottle of red makes me type faster but not better.



Here's a link to film highlights

If you watch the updated version and keep clicking on .53 enough, you can see his head shift to the left to avoid the shot, its quite funny.

Speaking of Shatner.. I always get a kick out of this remake:

Common People


Such a good sense of humor (even if he is Canadian:p). That movie Free Enterprise was pretty funny too. The Star Trek fanbois first meet him while he's checking out porn mags. He plays himself.
