I give the side-eye to people who call it “A New Hope” or “Episode IV.”

Han doesn’t shoot first. Han is the only one who shoots. In the original Greedo never fires a shot.

Based. I hate “Han shot first.” Greedo couldn’t get a shot off. I grew up on the “face” editions. The box VHS set.

And it works so much better that way. Lucas decided at some point to remove all moral ambiguity from all of his characters and it’s nuts.

I believe you are being what RPG circles call a “grognard”

And no Jabba in the Hangar either!

That’s the worst one because the dialogue is almost one to one the same as the scene prior.

Exactly. It’s a redundant scene. You either have the Jabba scene or have the Greedo scene, you can’t put both in there. And the Greedo scene (with Han shooting Greedo be fore he can get a shot off, naturally) is just a stronger scene.

The Jabba scene is something you put in the special features of a DVD, that would be fun. But not in the damn movie.

Would be funny if the last panel had George Lucas in the turbolift with a knife

Create post

/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally “othering” of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That’s okay! Just don’t let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it’s free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not ‘inspire jamaharon’

~ **8. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community’s expectations.

Fun will now commence.
