    My (new) hope is that in the parallel universe version they didn’t do the special edition re-releases and kept in the original Mos Eisley Cantina scene.

    Remember friends, Hana shot first!

      Han shot only. Greedo never got a shot off, Han straight up ended him in cold blood.

        Lest we forget, Greedo pointed a gun at him first, Han literally defended himself from a threat of lethal force. Jabba wanted Han dead or alive, and Greedo makes it clear he’d look forward to shooting.

        It’s part of why the edit is so galling, honestly, it was already justified.

      Isn’t there a team doing an effort to “remaster” the originals and remove all the added digital garbage?

            There’s also the 4k77, 4k80, and 4k83 projects which made 4k versions of Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi respectively, all from original 35mm reels of the movies.

                It might not, I haven’t been following the projects super closely. I wouldn’t know anything more than what’s posted on the site.
