Mine is they shouldn't have made the sequel series without George as a consultant.

Thank you. I would even argue that Return of the Jedi wasn’t great either. I mean sure, it was beautiful and the Moon of Endor with its giant trees looked amazing, but the plot was mostly a rehash of the original (another Death Star? Really?) plus silly Ewok shenanigans that made the empire into a total joke.

Good point, that was the beginning of the decline already.

Those speeder bike scenes, though. >chef's kiss< The rest of the film could've been Han Solo throwing up into his helmet and I still would've watched it.

The speeder scenes rocked, the few times I got to play the game on that in an arcade it was definitely closer to actually riding at death defying speeds in a semi open forest area, and it wasn't a quarter game either if I recall.

The score with the final lightsaber scene makes it great as well though in my books. Without the same music it wouldn't have worked nearly as well...though that's probably the same for a lot of the scenes. As great as the movie is I can still just listen to the music on its own, used to even on vinyl back in the day, Dad's soundtrack and my fisher price record player lol.

Should have been Wookiee ragings instead of Ewok shenanigans.
