I am sad to say that is the first time I have never seen han shoot first.
Here is another example of Han shooting first. Sees Darth Vadar, doesn't wonder why, doesn't stop to ask or think about whats happening? Nope, Han starts shooting, right away. Han shoots first
He was being held at gunpoint by a hostile opponent, who likely would have shot him anyway - if he were given the chance. Han did the right thing, at the right moment - how is that NOT respectable?
In movies,especially nowadays, the hero always has to go easy on the bad guy. Everyone always yells, "he's not worth it!" Then the badguy somehow gets a weapon, and tje hero is FORCED to kill him.
That's Hollywood.
Its not life.
