Saw The Force Awakens Today

And it was AWESOME!!!!!!!



And if anyone (cough - George Lucas - cough) had any doubts about Han shooting first, rest assured, a man who'd casually throw an enemy into the mouth of a rampaging monster (what where those things called??? Raznors, Ravenors?) wouldn't have hesitated to shoot Greedo first.

And likely spoilers in the comments, so be warned.

"rest assured, a man who'd casually throw an enemy into the mouth of a rampaging monster (what where those things called??? Raznors, Ravenors?) wouldn't have hesitated to shoot Greedo first"

THIS. So. Much. This. Why doesn't Lucas get this about Han, or get that that's why we love Han so much?.

I read that Lucas wasn't particularly happy with TFA - his comment was a rather sour - "Well, the fans will like it."

There were many moments of the movie that practically had me on my feet, cheering - but this one was the best of all. He just tossed the guy into the creature's mouth like it was nothing. No moral ambiguity there. Han Solo is a bad ass. Was a bad ass. Will always BE a bad ass. No question.
