As a decedent S_F watcher, the latest SW movie was a disappointing fard.
		    
		    
The only new features were some aliens (mostly disappointing)
and the sky cycles.  The Orkish creatures guarding Jabba's house were
cartoon imitations.  Jabba itself was a combination of one of the early
muppets from the first year of "Friday Night Live", and Sidney Greenstreet.
( The setting of jabba's room was reminiscent of the fat man's bar from
Casablanca. )  All the space scenes are now dull, after 6 years of
space-special-effects-exploitation movies.
   It has been mentioned that the introduction of characters was confusing,
if you did not see the previous films.  But even so, I got the feeling that
someone was acting with a green fozzy-bear muppet in one of the scenes.

NO; this film did not add anything to the genre of SF movies, but just
gave children, producers, and trivial space opera boffos something

		to enjoy,
