So I saw the movie.

I have read the various versions of the scripts for A New Hope since I’m a huge nerd I guess. Anyway, remember when Han tells Luke he made the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs? It’s obvious reading the scripts that Han was just making up gibberish. He figured Luke a sucker, so he was just making shit up to try to sound impressive.

I haven't read the scripts and don't care to, but that's the impression I always got from watching the actual film. It's much more interesting that way, too. It was more interesting when winning the Falcon in a game of cards was just code for "I stole it," too. Or, at the very least, he won it by cheating. But not anymore! They even made sure he loudly proclaimed "Fair and square!" as it fades to black.

If anything, Han being the cheat would be more in line with how he starts off in A New Hope.
