George Lucas has just started re-editing a new version of the original Star Wars trilogy. Apparently in this version, Han no longer shoots Greedo. There is in fact a third gunman on the grassy knoll outside the cantina's window. In an interview Lucas claimed that this was always his intention, but the technology has only now reached the point where this is possible to depict.

If you look very carefully, you can in fact see a small jawa gunman through one of the windows of the cantina in a single frame of the original film. Or perhaps it could be a smudge on the celuloid...

Definitely. But I really don't see the point in changing it: why not have the 'old' Anakin, given that he died when he was that age?

Yes, he *thinks* he's rationalising it, but Lucas just isn't on the same wavelength as most 'rational' people ;P
Perhaps I'm being too cruel...but I cannot forgive the appalling dialogue between Anakin and Amidala in the last film! :)
