Looks like the prequels are not aging well.

Han in Jedi is a funny thing. By the end, he's essentially become a team player, with a grownup job in the new government and a wife.

Well, that is EU stuff. None of it is in the movie.

I don't know if I'd characterize it as a grownup job in the government, but Han definitely has a grownup job in the military at the end of RotJ. The inflection point for his character is when he reveals that he has accepted a commission as a general. That is when you know he takes the rebellion seriously, and is in it for more than just a chance to get in Leia's pants.

Aside from the Han vs. Zsinj stories, I think the EU pretty much ignored that and regressed Han somewhat. Sure, he had a wife and kids, but he also had his hotrodded starship and took off on adventures whenever he felt like it.
