So, I was watching the Tonight Show with Jay Leno tonight, and Dominic Monaghan was on (in case there are some people who don't know who that is, he played Merry in LOTR and he's Charlie on Lost). Anyway, Jay asked if he was a Star Wars fan and if he had seen ROTS. Dominic said yes, he's seen it and has problems with it, but he didn't want to go into them on the show "because it would take about 4 hours to explain". And then he proceeded to say that the thing that bothers him most about the new Star Wars stuff is the fact that Lucas made Greedo shoot first. There was absolutely NO audience response (I guess there weren't many hardcore OT fans there), but Dominic braved through the silence and continued to explain why it is so horrible that Lucas changed it. Jay then kinda made fun of him, saying he really shouldn't talk about that on a date or something. I just thought it was cool that he brought that up on national TV, and on his first ever appearance on the Tonight Show. He's a geek! OriginalTrilogy.com should send him a Congratulations card or something
