I, for one, was never a big hater of the Ewoks. I was one of those little bastards who grew up with Return of the Jedi freshest in my mind of all the Star Wars films, albeit the weakest of the original trilogy, so obviously I was ruined from the start. I mean, I grew up on all that merchandising bonanza bullshit; Ninja Turtles, Power Rangers, He-Man. And if you have one bad word to say about Glow Worms, even a clever penis-related comment, you can just jump off a fucking cliff right now. Glow Worms were the shit.
But Happy 25th ROTJ, Wicket and the Ewoks.
And let’s have a moment of silence for the man we lost in 1983: George Lucas Mark 1 A.K.A. Creative George A.K.A. George Before the Shitstorm A.K.A. Let’s Just Pretend the Prequels and Indy 4 Never Happened.
