There's a difference between being annoyed at someone for changing the story (So was I, just like I was annoyed that Spielberg removed the guns in ET) and starting a giant internet campaign with the "HAN SHOT FIRST" slogan being repeated ad infinitum. I have the original movies on VHS. If Lucas wants to screw the movies up, I don't have to buy them, and can keep watching the ones where Han really did shoot first
