What is so wrong with ewoks?
Actually, it is the irony in it which is good. If the empire had been expecting fierce resistence, then they would have went in more heavy handidly than they did, and the Ewoks would not have won.
HOWEVER...
They are small, cudly, cute and I didn't see one of them burn alive. That pisses me off! That's why they're on my list of blunders.

Maybe not exact but something like that.
Also if you're going to redo stuff and make it look better, why not digitally erase all those folds and creases in the ewok suits? Or how about that echo image of han solo as he runs from the bunker?
What about the lightsabre fight in ep 4, you can still see the rod alec guiness was holding where they missed covering it in post production.
Why not fix that stuff?

What about the stormtrooper in the death star, who's helmet flies up as he hits his head whilst walking in a doorway?
Or the boob-sighting on the dancer in front of Jabba?
See. Somethings should just not be touched.
I loved the re-makes of the films. EXCEPT Greedo shooting first. That was so bad, it's no small wonder Lucas decided to re-fix that. So, what happens now is that Greedo and Solo shoot at the same time.
If they re-make that scene anymore, it will be like a nose job on Michael Bloody Jackson.
Before you know it Solo will be having sex with baby bloody ewoks.
SEE!!!
This is why the buck has to stop here. No further, before we slip into the darkside...

Say, he went back to episode one and...removed...Jar Jar...?
Personally, I agree, I'd have him go back to episode three and have Jar Jar beheaded....but just imagine he cut him out? Good or bad?

Maybe adding a scene where he gets mowed down towards the end of ep 3 would work.

Contemplate it I will...
But I generally agree that he should have been beheaded by a pissed-off Anakin...

Otherwise he might have placed 10 such legions there!

Only my top 5 blunders at the moment.
1. The death of the Fetts...Such cool bad guys and they kill them off in such wimpy ways.
2. Jar Jar. Nothing more needs to be said.
3. Just about every Star Wars video game ever made.
4. Greedo shooting first.
5. The entire Gungan race.
