Han Shot First

It's Starwars mania today. I like this one though. There is sort of a campaign against Lucas having pussified the Han v. Greedo cantina scene (among many of his cinematic vandalisms) in the most recent re-re-re-re-re-release of the original trilogy. Instead of the scene you and I grew up knowing where Han shoots Greedo before Greedo can shoot him, the scene was heavily altered to make it look like Greedo shot first (who misses a target 2 feet away from you?) which makes Han look like the victim, thusly justified in shooting Greedo. I've always said the library of congress should have confiscated the originals a long time ago for their protection. And someone (i don't care who) should have gotten punished for the whole Jar Jar thing.
