Remind me why Han didn’t repay his debt after the award ceremony?
Lol. I actually didn’t mean it that way…
He stayed with the Jebels and didn’t return to Tattooine.
Yeah? But, why?
No one thought to give the princess a change in clothes?
Red 13 standing by…
I do appreciate the special edition for this scene.
Don’t know of any reason. Obviously he mentions running into a bounty hunter and wanted to go and pay Jabba off. But that doesn’t explain about the previous three years he could have.
Well there was already a bounty on his head and I’m sure he’d rather hang out with the Princess than Jabba.
I still like the models. Maybe cuz I’ve seen it more times that way. The CG doesn’t feel right.
True. I guess he thot Jabba forgot about him until they ran into the bounty hunter.
I prefer the CG because the squares around the ships were jarring.
I can sorta buy that.
From the Star Wars database:
To spread his influence and business across the Outer Rim, Jabba employed a number of smugglers to traffic his illicit goods. One of the best starpilots on his payroll was a young Corellian named Han Solo. Solo’s luck ran out while running a shipment of Kessel spice, and his freighter, the Millennium Falcon was boarded by an Imperial patrol. With no options, Han jettisoned Jabba’s cargo into space.
The Hutt was livid. He demanded compensation for his lost cargo. When Solo failed to provide the credits, Jabba sicced his bounty hunters after him. One of the first, a bumbling Rodian named Greedo, failed miserably and ended up fried in a seedy Mos Eisley cantina. Jabba then tried to smooth things with Solo by trying to play the fatherly patron. It was all a ruse, and Solo knew it. That Jabba showed up with the deadly bounty hunter Boba Fett in his party indicated to Solo that time was running out.
Weeks passed, then months. Still, Solo had not paid off the crime lord, as he was drawn deeper into the Galactic Civil War and assisting the Rebel Alliance. Jabba, never one to be interested in political ideals or civil wars, saw this as no excuse. More bounty hunters came. One nearly bagged the price on Han’s head in a run-in on Ord Mantell.
Ultimately, it was Boba Fett who tracked down the Corellian. Fett delivered Solo, frozen in carbonite, to Jabba’s palace in return for a large bounty. Solo, once an extraordinary pilot, smuggler, and soldier in the Rebel Alliance, was now little more than wall decoration for a grotesque crime lord.
That’s part of the nostalgia.
Full Throttle…that’s an EA game that has Mark Hamill voicing most of the characters…biker game.
Thanks.
The squares took me out of the movie. Weird, I know.
big 'splosion
E, “Pluey! Boom!”
Just think. Han could have killed Vader.
R, “Threepio is a worry wart.”
