The same movies that gave us a couple of charred skeletons also gave us Jar Jar and Ewoks

that's the problem, you're not suppose to think about it.
why can't people nowadays just enjoy fictions without thinking about it too hard? --- You have the right to remain silent, anything you post will be misquoted, then used against you. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Thematically, Star Wars has always been fantasy rather than science fiction.
- princess rescue - black knight - a "dragon" in the form of the rancor - good triumphing over evil That's one of the shortcomings of the new movies. They're straight science fiction rather than being fantasy wrapped in a science fiction blanket. ... Copied to Clipboard!

You know both good things and bad things exist/happen in the real world too.
This is a world that has Disney World, as well as serial killers and cannibals. --- Your face looks like I need a beer. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Oh, wait. Here I go acting like "Star Wars" means the original trilogy and not the endless novels, cartoons, and video games. I'm sure at least a fraction of fans think that Star Wars is supposed to be Gotham in space.

Nobody hated the ewoks until the 2000s. Nah, I remember as a kid people older than me always gave me shit for thinking Return of the Jedi was best, and it was always cause they hated the Ewoks. This was around 96, when they re-released them. I just really liked the final fight between Luke and Vader for some reason. The Ewoks being "too cute" didn't even register to me. At the same time, I didn't really like them either like I think I was *supposed* to as a kid. They were just kinda there and I was okay with that because some kind of alien needed to be on the planet. Today I prefer Empire Strikes Back, though :/ --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

The "dragon" was never the Rancor. Thematically the Death Stars have represented the "dragon". It represented the dragon as a physical monster which the hero had to slay. You're right, the Death Star plays the role of the dragon in terms of the thing which threatens to wipe out life as we know it. But in terms of the hero fighting a beast, that role went to the rancor. The hero's fight with a dragon is seldom the end of the story whether it's Siegfried, Brothers Grimm, or St. George. The hero defeats the monster and the story progresses onward. ... Copied to Clipboard!
