It is a reach... and not one I'm even sure was intended by the edit.

I do like the Original better, but the edit doesn't bother me as much as some of the others.

Greedo is a chump either way- either an goon who talks too much, and lets Han get the drop on him, or a looser Jaba sends to his death just to make a point.

I really like Jaba- he seems like a pretty easy going guy for a huge slimy mafia slug, someone you could really work with. His reaction to the thermal detonator negotiation tactics reflects this. Jaba respects balls and chutzpa. Han wouldn't be any good to him is he were a fawning sycophant or any less hair-trigger and deadly. But Jaba also can't let al dumped cargo go. He likes Han- Han is a good guy, and gets the job done- but business is business.

Greedo is just a chump either way... trying to build him up now as a seasoned bounty hunter... who just happned to miss at 2 feet... just stupid.
