I'd say Han. Unless he was merely shrugging off that Rodian's shot.

If Han shot first the Greedo wouldn't have been accurate enough to make Han dodge his shot at super human speed.

A parsec is a unit of distance not time, how did the Millennium Falcon make the Kessel run in less than 12?

Can a Lightsaber cut Superman?

Who would win, X or Y? (Common favorites: Goku, Alex Mercer, Master Chief, Kratos, Godzilla, Optimus Prime, etc...)

Here is my favorite from New Year's Eve:
Is Inara from Firefly a prostitute?

My answer was and still is: yes, because her basic job function is getting paid for sex. All the other things she can do, such as sword fighting and social interactions, is just a bonus.

Also, Han shot first and is not a prostitute.

If a lightsaber amounts to projecting monochromatic light into a focused beam, then why don't the blades extend to infinity?

What game did Mario first appear in? And what was his name?

Not that hard for gamers, but tough for everyone else

Video of Han shooting first (from the Original version, as near as I can figure out in the 5 mintues I've spent looking)

Video of Greedo shooting first (From the remastered version)

Hope this helps.

Everybody knows that Han shot first...George Lucas merely changed it to make Han seem less 'murder-ish'

The Kessel Run has two main routes; smugglers can either take the more dangerous route that passes by a huge cluster of black holes called the Maw (where the Sun Crusher and Death Star superlaser were developed, btw) or they can fly through the Pit, an asteroid field within a nebula. The Kessel Run normally is an 18-parsec-long route, as most smugglers fly along the Pit. However, Solo flew dangerously close to the Maw, shaving a great amount of distance off his trip.

If it took you fifty years to invent a time machine which traveled with you, and you went back forty-nine years to speed up the invention process, would you still have to take forty-nine more years to invent the machine so your future self could use it, go back that forty-nine years to show it to yourself, or would it already be there ready for use anytime?

I thought about this one some time ago before I thought it would either be an endless loop or a time paradox and gave up.

Han, obviously.

Nope. Lightsabers can't cut through things like force fields and vibroblades; I figure Superman probably fits into the same category.

If Superman is invincible, how can Kryptonite hurt him?
'Cause he's not. Krypton had higher gravity and a red sun; living on Earth with our yellow sun and pitiful gravity is what gives him his superpowers. Kryptonite is radioactive bits of the now-destroyed Krypton, so thanks to artistic license, his usual superpowers are negated just by having bits of his homeworld near him.

Because the lightsabers read the script?

This one has always, always bugged me.
