Han shot first! Until he didn't!

from WhoDatJedi Podcast · host whodatjedi

Welcome to the 84th episode of the WhoDatJedi podcast! This week, your hosts -- Aaron Svoboda (@Aaron_Svoboda), Alfredo Narvaez (@NOLA_Fredo) and David Gladow (@davegladow) -- start a deeper dive on the Star Wars special editions by talking about the 1997 re-release of "A New Hope." The changes present in that film have resonated throughout the fandom for a long time (Han shot first?), but even beyond the more controversial choices, were ANY of the changes good? The group goes through each change and talks a bit about the bigger issues. Does a filmmaker reserve the right to change his work in perpetuity? And what's the REAL reason the changes were made? Buckle up for a supremely nerdy discussion.
