The controversy over who shot first, Greedo or Han Solo, in Episode IV, what I did was try to clean up the confusion, but obviously it upset people because they wanted Solo [who seemed to be the one who shot first in the original] to be a cold-blooded killer, but he actually isn’t. It had been done in all close-ups and it was confusing about who did what to whom. I put a little wider shot in there that made it clear that Greedo is the one who shot first, but everyone wanted to think that Han shot first, because they wanted to think that he actually just gunned him down.

Gary Kurtz said at the Elstree Empire Day that Han's actions were pre emptied. He knew Greedo was going to kill him so Han shot him first. That's that !

Well, we don't even need someone like Kurtz explaining it to us, the scene as it plays out in the original film is very simple and speaks for itself. You need to be a brainless toddler if you don't understand what's going on in that scene.

Yeah, I know. What I meant by that is that Kurtz said it was always meant to be like that. Never the way George is now saying in the above statement.
