Han shot first

[pokerfan]

2. How many versions of the Greedo shooting are there?

In the original, Han shoots only.

In the special editions, Greedo shoots and misses.

In the 2004 release, Greedo shoots and Han ducks the shot.

"Dawn" is a different vowel sound altogether...

Notice that Leia is "Lay-uh" and "Lee-uh" depending on which character is speaking.

I've always pronounced it as in "father" or as the New England way of pronouncing "aunt." (which means NOT like a bug.)

[Mad_Dem_X]

25. "Hahn."

Though, when I was little, I pronounced it like "hand," without the d.

[Orrex]

26. In your defense, that's how C3PO pronounced it while Chewie was choking Lando.

For the record "choking Lando" is not a euphemism for anything.
