*Fun fact:* In the Legends continuity, the Rodian named Greedo who Anakin fought in a deleted scene of Episode I is not the one from "A New Hope", but his father Greedo the Elder. This was established in order to fix the big inconsistency generated between said film and Greedo's story in Legends (created before the prequels) as, in said origin story, Greedo is the same age as Luke and he grew up in Rodia.

"Han shot first" is a very important element of Han's character arc. From a lying, cowardly, boasting smuggler he becomes a rebel hero, general and a devoted friend. I can't believe that Lucas and Disney can't see the point, what that scene communicates to the viewer.

@miqvPL 2 жыл бұрын

@@goodmind4940 I really can't see the reasoning behind it. It's a dangerous galaxy and he was held at gunpoint by a bounty hunter on a Hutt controlled planet. It's kill or be killed. Sure it was ruthless and cowardly, and his relaxed attitude suggests he did that many times before. But it doesn't make him irredeamable. Leia killed many stormtroopers by shooting them before they shot her, I guess she can't marry Han now, that ruthless bitch

Han didn't shoot first (literally canon) but the event is still an important part of his character.

@miqvPL 2 жыл бұрын

@@valravnsshadow9422 nice usage of the word "literally". Han literally shot literally first in the original footage, there are literally comparisons, literally. Lucas added later the scene where we see the blaster shots, with Han's neck moving like a snake to avoid the shot (fucking bizzare). In the original we see Greedo holding a blaster getting fried and his head slamming the table, with Han holding a blaster aftr shooting Greedo 0,5 second after Han finished his sentence. It's extremely obvious who shot first in the original footage.

In "From a Certain Point of View", Greedo was one of the most feared individuals in Mos Eisley, and most of the stories from the Mos Eisley Cantina's patrons hit the climax with Han's confrontation with Greedo (and the prior confrontation between Old Ben and Pondo Baba, who was actually supposed to be Greedo's backup when confronting Solo).

I always had a fondness for the rodians moral diversity. Theres a lot of star wars aliens that are too easily groups into good guy bad guy sections when every species should be a mix of both.

@Mackenzie Bauroth well names I can’t recall, but i’m bad with those anyway. Clone wars had a Jedi master rodian died resisting giving cad cane access the a holocron, and another rodian padawan. Then there some from the high republic that were Just a farming family getting abused by a pawn of the hutts. That one in the haradan guild in kotor seemed reasonable as well.
