Greedo
Greedo has one job in the original Star Wars: to get shot by Han Solo, thereby establishing Han as a take-no-prisoners tough guy.
Unfortunately, George Lucas lost the stomach for Han Solo preemptively killing someone in the years after the 1977 release of A New Hope, and when the film was re-released in the 1990s, he added a much-criticized laser beam firing from Greedo’s gun to ret-con the notion that Greedo fired first.
But real Star Wars fans know the facts: Han Solo is a stone-cold killer. And we like it that way.
