Star Wars DVD Cover Art Leaked

An anonymous reader writes "Everyone already knows that Star Wars is coming to DVD. In related news, the Digital Bits reports that the proposed cover art for the upcoming Star Wars Trilogy box set was "accidentally" leaked over the weekend by design company Neuron Syndicate. The images were pulled, but not before copies were made. Three versions of packages for the Star Wars Trilogy can currently be viewed at French fansite KamuiWeb. If only those were packages of the original versions of these childhood classics...."

I actually prefer the fan covers since they feature the original poster art. The John Berkey painting for "Star Wars" really brings back the memories.

Self Defense

Han always came across to me as shooting in self defense in the first movie. Among other things, he was facing a BOUNTY HUNTER. Do you NEED to let them shoot first to know what a bounty hunter for jabba the hutt is going to do to you?

The restoration doesn't clarify he was shooting in self defense. The restoration just implies Han was either so monumentally nice or so monumentally stupid that he couldn't see where this was going and wouldn't shoot to save his own skin unless the other person shot first.

What I can't stand about that change is that what the restoration ultimately means is that Han did not survive that scene because of quick thinking and reflexes and the cunning to have a gun already hidden. It means that Han survived the scene solely because Greedo missed.
