File this under “ Why we need libraries and librarians ” : A copy of the original shooting handwriting for Star Wars Episode IV was obtain sit around on a shelf in the University of New Brunswick ’s program library in Saint John . And it may nail down whether or not Han shoot first .
Librarian Kristian Brown had been sifting through the library ’s science fiction collection for a digitisation projection when he came across the script , date stamp March 15 , 1976 . A script which Lucsasfilm sustain look like a tangible version of an former handwriting . Not one used by the production , but a written matter made by rooter to be sold at conventions .
A few of the modification from this script to the film we ended up experience are well known : Luke Starkiller rather than Skywalker , the picture call in “ Saga I ” rather than “ Episode IV . ” But the big change is , of course , whether Han shot first . Says Brown :

I ’ll tell you one thing , right now . Based on the script , I can tell you 100 per cent , Han shot first .
Which just tells us that George Lucas has been convert his mind about the picture show for decades .
