Han Solo being a dick in new Star Wars deleted scene

>> ^Gallowflak:

Nah. This sort of abrasive bullshit would've been appropriate in IV, maybe. In Empire, the film introduces him really well; he's developed from his childish hedonistic bullshit, but he's still a bit of a douche, self-absorbed - perhaps only superficially - and there's sufficient antagonism to make him an interesting character.
But the Han here is just being a cunt. It's so blunt and ridiculous that it would shut down the empathic process the audience goes through with the character. The thing with Han is that the good outweighs the bad and here, in this scene, it's like they're trying to tip the scales the other way. It's out of place, it's wrong for the film, the character arc and the character itself.
Another thing is that, through almost all the films, whenever Han was being a dick he was still likeable to an extent. But this scene just makes him seem really ugly.


Well said. It's interesting to see the scene though, all these years later. It's also interesting that what they cut out here was better and had more emotion than anything in the prequels as @GeeSussFreeK pointed out.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

This was never in the movie - putting this in would be fucking with the movie.>> ^thumpa28:

Nah, this should have stayed in. Han isnt perfect, which makes his decision to join the rebellion more of a journey of personal development. 'Perfect' Han would have joined the rbellion anyway because he loves eeeeverybody. This is just the next extension of 'greedo (guido?) shot first'. Luke is plenty goody two shoes for everyone, Han is meant to be more Mal than Preacher. QUIT FUCKING WITH THE MOVIE.

Respectfully disagree. Despite that it's Hoth, "this" Han loses his "cool" far too quickly.

The 'real' Han knows how Leia feels and doesn't overly push it.

I actually like this. Han Solo being a bit of dick is part of his character, and this works.

I'm not gonna pretend the original Star Wars movies were cinematic genius (Well some of the Special FX were at the time), but they at least maintained a certain level of acting. Everything we needed to know about Vader's mental conflict was portrayed through body language and action. We didn't need some dubbed in nooOOoOOOooo to tell us what was going on. Maybe next he'll change Han Solo's 'I know' line to some gushing confession of love.

Is God Good?

Star Wars: The Old Republic - Incredible Opening Cinematic

Morganth says...

It isn't just Han Solo that's being ripped off. The whole time I was watching it seemed like they were putting old ideas in new clothes and changing the order around.

Smuggler guy who cares about money, helps the Jedi, and happens to have the fastest ship - Han Solo
The Sith ship that landed in the docking back looked an awful lot like the Millenium Falcon
Man the guns while I get the hyper-drive ready - escaping the Death Star in Episode IV
Tiny bit of Empire while they dodged some asteroids
The Jedi apprentice's master is killed and now she must carry on the fight against the Sith(I, IV, VI)
Flying through the Sith ship looked an awful lot like going into the Death Star in Episode VI

I understand the necessity of continuity in this universe they've created. A lot of its not only necessary, but fun. Still, they need more new ideas. The trooper being a character that gets developed may be the only new one. Also, the Jedi chick left her lightsaber with her master so that's probably a starting point for the game - you get to play as a Jedi, but you don't get a lightsaber for a while.

Still, this video did look freakin' awesome!

What the hell... this was better than 90% of the prequel content. All four protagonists (two jedi's, captain, and stormtrooper) are already more likeable than Anakin and Padme. We got to see a storm trooper actually doing cool stuff. The smuggler was clearly a Han Solo rip off, but still. It's such a great universe, why do you have to run it in to the ground George Lucas.
Unfortunately, the actual gameplay footage I've seen looks pretty pedestrian.

A guy stabbing me in my eyes is more likeable than Anakin and Padme. Portman is a very good actress, but she can't make Lucas's scripts sound any good.

Truckchase says...

I cant wait for more masterful Lucas changes! I hope they give Han Solo a funny hat, and put a commemorative keychain on Luke's lightsaber! Maybe we could work transformers into this story somehow. While we're at it, we should make Vader Luke's brother, not father. At that point they could film a new scene where the new CGI actors argue about who will win the superbowl. Then they wrestle.
