The Luke/Leia/Han love triangle was in there, too, and rather spicier than it was in the final form onscreen in The Empire Strikes Back.
What I love most about the first two movies is how much obvious retconning Lucas had to do to beat them into the eventual Skywalker canon. We all saw that kiss on the Death Star, George.
Remember, Han didn’t just shoot first, Han shot only.
Greedo got burned down without even getting a shot off.
