I think there should have been more wookies.

More wookies!!!

I agree. Also, there should have been more Wookiees in Return of the Jedi; Lucas should never have changed the Wookiees to Ewoks.

That said, Revenge of the Sith was still an enjoyable movie. I don't have too many quibbles with it and probably actually like it better than Return of the Jedi, since there wasn't an hour of rather irrelevant muppetshow. Definitely better than the other two prequels, as well.

The only thing that REALLY bugged me about that movie is when Obi-Wan jumped off of the platform in the lava fight scene onto solid ground and was all, "I have the high ground now - this fight is over!" That was just so stupid and corny and plot-forced I almost felt physical pain.

Otherwise, great movie.

Yes, that scene was a bit awkward.

What was even more painful was Lucas's half-assed and blindingly obvious attempts at political satire.

Lucas explained why he couldn't use Wookiees. He said they knew how to use at least some technology (like Chewbacca did), and Lucas wanted a race using spears and Stone Age kind of stuff there, and he also wanted to use a short race to show that these creatures couldn't be a threat to the mighty Empire. It was basically a nature vs. technology setting, and the only purpose of the Ewoks was to distract the Imperials long enough for the Rebels to blow up the shield generator.

As Kishi and Yams said, that doesn't mean he had to use teddy bears.

Yes, I know, but that's the explanation. I still don't like Ewoks that much (although they don't ruin the movie, at least for me), but at least that made me understand why he didn't use Wookiees in the first place. xD

I liked the Ewoks. They were my kind of people. Unlike those Gungans. -_-
