We like to think of [Han Solo] as a murderer because that's hip- I don't think that's a good thing for people. I mean, I don't see how you could redeem somebody who kills people in cold blood."...

That's a load of BS. There was nothing to prevent him from shooting it that way originally if he had wanted to. Why doesn't he just admit that he changed his mind and wanted to alter the scene? Why does he keep insisting that all the changes he makes are things he wanted to do all along?
