Star Wars

[ciphergoth]

lovelybug has never seen Star Wars! And last weekend we were supposed to watch The Empire Strikes Back on TV, only I managed to screw it up. I should fix it. But I need your help. Original, as remastered from a Laserdisc, or special edition with whizzy digital special effects and Greedo shooting first?

That's in the original too!

Not the version I've known and loved. Maybe it's in a UK-release?

Having just double-checked both editions, I think we're both right :-) I was right in thinking that the original edition (at least as it exists on the bonus DVDs in the UK Limited Edition release) does contain a scene matching your description. However, you're right in saying that the special edition has a huge crowd of stormtroopers in a way that the original edition doesn't: the corresponding bit has about four times as many stormtroopers pasted into the shot as Han comes round the corner. Han and the central troopers behave in recognisably the same way in both, though, so I think we were thinking of the same scene.
