Wait...so an iconic, character-revealing moment is changed, and you think its not a big deal?

So, if we go back and change that moment in the new Dr Who episode "Bad Wolf", and have the Dr throw the switch to kill the Daleks, it wouldn't be a big deal, either. Right?

When the new version is just as iconic and character-revealing and changes nothing, yes it isn't a big deal. Your comparison doesn't work at all.

nayrt, and I don't watch Dr Who, so can't speak to the comparison, but I do think that Han just blasting Greedo did set the tone for his character early in the film as not-heroic. He shoots the bounty hunter who comes for him, he won't even consider rescuing Leia without a reward, and once he's got a reward, he's ready to leave them all behind. I think it makes his eventual return to save the day have that much more impact.

I suppose you can argue that there's enough of that without him shooting first, but I also don't think it was such an egregious incident that it needed to be deleted.

But then, in general, I do not like film creators revising the content of their work once it's been released. I don't mind a bit of buffing up the details, like cleaning up special effects, but I dislike plot or content changes. I am eternally annoyed that I can't get a copy of the theatrical release of Last of the Mohicans, and I also don't care for the re-release editing of ET to remove the guns.
