Greedo saying that Han was going to soon be dead and that he was looking forward to "this" for a long time? Then a big white explosion obscurring who was able to fire his blaster first?
Plenty of tension for me.

Though I will admit that the SE kind of removes all of the fun from that scene somehow . . . like an annoying headache.
There's certainly something going on in the scene when we cut to Han, but in terms of Greedo, there's nothing happening. Sure, his dialogue mentions he's about to do something to Han, but not for a moment does it actually look like he's gonna pull the trigger. He's just waving a blaster around like an idiot, talking big, and looking like he's got no intention to use the thing. Then Han kills him.
