Return of the Jedi Rewatch: Ewoks, Jabba, Vader & George Lucas’ Weird Changes

Return of the Jedi Rewatch: Ewoks, Jabba, Vader & George Lucas’ Weird Changes

Published 6 hours ago
Description

Jason, Rachel, and guest Jeshua Kidd revisit Star Wars: Episode VI — from Jabba’s Palace and Luke’s rescue plan to Leia, Han, the Ewoks, the Emperor, Vader’s redemption, and all the strange little choices that make this such a beloved, messy, muppety Star Wars movie.

We also get into George Lucas’ Special Edition changes, including Jedi Rocks, the CGI additions, and why some of those updates still drive fans absolutely insane.

Is Return of the Jedi the weakest of the original trilogy? The most fun? Secretly underrated? Let’s get into it.
