That guy just couldn’t catch a break. I just watched the TCW ep from season 3 with him.

Imagine a star wars saga where greedo kills han in the cantina and luke and obi-wan have to enlist his help instead. I wonder if Vader would remember him when they meet up on Cloud City (although i guess boba fett wouldn’t have been involved, nor would Lando, if Han was out of the picture)

Anyway... RIP Greedo

This is the man who killed Greedo. If you see him. Kill him.

When I was a kid I was playing with my Star Wars toys out on the front lawn one day. When it came time to pick everything up and go inside, I couldn’t find Greedo since he was the same color as the grass. My dad ended up running him over with the lawn mower the next day. He came in with a very apologetic look on his face and handed me Greedo’s arm.

RIP Greedo

It was his greed that got him killed. Coulda worked the moisture farms but noooooooo he just had to have that designer vest so he started working for Jabba.

in retrospect the old redtext was a little over the top, I think I was in a bad mood that day. it appears you've learned your lesson about slagging our gods and masters at beamdog but I'm still going to leave this av up because i think its funny

god bless
His worst and most humiliating moment was when he was inside a butt, that was probably worse than getting shot to death.

George Lucas cut a scene from Episode I that reveals that the Rodian kid hanging out with Anakin before the pod race was Greedo because the scene involved Anakin getting mad at him and beating the poo poo out of him in order to show that, yes, the rage and hatred that would make him into Vader was there even as a kid.

But Jorge was a coward and showing one 12 year old wailing on another till they're bloody and broken isn't family friendly.

pretentious fuckwit who isn't half as literate or insightful or clever as he thinks he is
yeah i was about to post that the rodian kid extra you see in TPM was originally going to be greedo and lucas decided 'ok this is pushing it a little too far in terms of weird-rear end coincidences', which hey, fair enough, given that greedo isn't even important

it'd be like if that guy carrying the ice cream machine was the pilot of bail organa's ship in episode 3

Just to be nitpicky, the kid you see in TPM is Wald and is a different Rodian from Greedo. In the deleted scene, Wald actually says to him "Keep this up, Greedo, and you'll come to a bad end". FORESHADOWING :ohdear:
Anyway, here is the scene:

Anakin's friend and Greedo are separate Rodians actually

Contrary to the above posting I assure everyone here the purpose of the sticky is to announce a mandatory mourning period for Greedo. Our service shall be today at 8 EST, it will assuredly be the best attended public event of the day.

Star wars. He died in them. He died as he lived which wasn't good because it implies he died every single day of his life.

And greedo did do that.
