A Big Big thanks across the pond!
by Andy on Oct.22, 2006, under Geek
last week, I made a post, admitting to uber geekhood, and linked to a great Star Wars site that advocated what we all knew - The famous scene in the first Star Wars film, where Han Solo ruthlessly shoots the bounty hunter Greedo should never have been tinkered with.
For both dramatic, and character-arc reasons, Han Solo should have no problem killing a bounty hunter in cold blood. As an audience, we don’t know if Luke and Ben can really trust the man who has agreed to smuggle them to Alderaan, and when Han redeems himself at the end of the film, shooting Vader’s Tie Fighter and allowing Luke to destroy the death star, we have seen him turn from someone who only cares about saving himself, to saving his new friends.
Anyway, I digress…
The owner of the site contacted me, and asked me what cards I needed to complete my ‘A New Hope’ card collection - and has actually found and is sending me 9 of the 10 I needed!
So, many thanks, you’ve made a geek very happy
But the story doesn’t end there - in a subsequent post, I asked about the missing card list, and the Star Wars Fan Boi came up trumps again! The cards from the Premiere two-player introductory game are now listed over at his site! Just goes to show, sometimes a question asked without expecting a response can sometimes surprise you.
