I saw a special premiere of this movie tonight, and I was disappointed.
It seems with the success of E.T. they decided to make it as cute as
they could, by introducing the furry little Ewoks.  A lot of the special
effects left a lot to be desired as well.  The cycle speeders were sped
up far too much to be realistic, and a lot of matte shots were too
obviously phony (notably the desert sail barge scenes).  There was an
overabundance of muppets, and I was horrified at Jabba the Hutt's
entertainment--an alien with a long snout (wearing lipstick) singing.
Jabba's little pet, Sy Snootles (what kind of a stupid name is that?),
reminded me of Wile E. Coyote.  The ending of this trilogy does not make
it worthwhile, this is by far the worst of the Star Wars films.
