The irony being of course that Vader hadn't even threatened Solo when Greedo obviously wanted to kill him.

Or they could try to get Harrison Ford back and film a new scene to be inserted into the betrayal.

LANDO: I've just made a deal that will keep the Empire out of here forever.

The mighty doors to the dining room slide open, and the group enters the dining room. At the far end of a huge banquet table sits Darth Vader.

SOLO: Uh, oh! That looks like Darth Vader. He's a bad guy and he's probably going to try to kill me if I don't shoot at him. The only reason I'm going to shoot at him is in self-defense, because I know he's going to do something bad. He's a bad guy.

Faster than the wink of an eye, Han draws his blaster and pops off a few shots directly at Vader.

A cut scene. As soon as Lando says "out of here forever", the picture goes grainy, and a time marker appers on the bottom of the screen.

LANDO: I've just made a deal that will keep the Empire out of here forever. (whispers) *shhh* Now, listen, behind those doors is Darth Vader. He arrived here before you did. OK, Han, the thing is, you try to shoot him as soon as I open this door. He is unnarmed, he dosen't have his lightsaber with him. All you gotta do is shoot him right on his neck, ok?

SOLO: Why, Lando, I'm not so sure about this... Shoot him? I mean, I only shoot when people shoot back at me...

LANDO: There is no time for this, Han! I pretended to make a deal with Vader so I could get him into this tiny, little room with no ways out. All you gotta do is shoot him.

SOLO: Why don't you just lock this door and let him starve to death?

LANDO: No, he can get out, he has that... uh... force thing. You are the best blaster shooter in the galaxy, c'mon, just shoot him!

SOLO: Uh-uh, no way. Why don't you shoot him? Or Lobot there?

LANDO: Han, please! Shoot him! I'll open this door and you just shoot him... Please...

SOLO: Oh... all right. I'll shoot him. But I'll shoot his hand, I don't kill people who hasn't tried to kill me before.

Again Ric, very funny.

I'd like a qui-gon jinn please with an Obi-Wan to go.

Red heads ROCK. Blondes do not rock. Nuff said.

I heard that all that we've seen so far as promotional material for Episode III is a rouse. All prints of Revenge of the Sith that theaters will recieve are actually prints of the Star Wars Holiday Special (Special Edition). Digitally remastered, THX certified, 6.1 Dolby Surround and expanded musical numbers with Bea Arthur and more scenes of Lumpy building stuff.

More news: Lucas has decided not to go with John Williams' orchestral score for Episode III. Instead, the film will be accompanied by a rap soundtrack, to keep things fresh and to appeal to the masses.

"I really enjoy Johnny's work," says Lucas, "but I just think that the orchestral thing has been done to death in the last five movies. It's time to adapt the movie to changing times."

I dare say I wouldn't even go to see it.

Two and a half hours of the street vibe? I must agree with Starkiller.

I don't know--there's something to a funky fresh beat that would add some life to the new trilogy. Or not.

There is a (sadly untranslatable) "funk carioca" (which is a hip-hop/rap/funk mix made in Rio) talking about Star Wars, they talk about the characters from both the OT and PT as if they were part of some sort of "City of God" cast... It's hilarious...

They're using Kenny Baker for the rap "artist".

And Lucas has also announced that since it was part of his original vision (and to tie the trilogies together), he will be inserting rap soundtracks into the original trilogy. "I talked to Rick about it and he gave me the thumbs up," says Lucas. "I don't know about Johnny, though. I haven't talked with him in awhile."
