Ewoks? Teddy Bears? Muppets? scenes in the Forest were a Disgrace
Incredibly childish, an insult to anyone over the age of 14, like little munchkins with fur

shareSo bad it's actually uncomfortable to watch. And you're being generous with your age cutoff.
I'd put the number at about 12.
the film was a poorly written mess only liked because of the 1980s...nothing more

AT Least they're Cute. Jar Jar Binks was an ugly Stereo Type!
When Jar Jar came along Most people forgot their hate for the Ewoks.Episode
I heard Episode III Jar Jar was supposed to be helping Palpitine get Laws passed by the committee, but they cut that scene from the script at least that could've made him a little
(And I Mean Little) BAD @$$!

And even with Ewoks bringing this film down, it's still better than all the Prequels and The Force Awakens combined.
shareNo it isnt
Force awakens had a plot that started immediately
Return of the jedi was *beep* awful for many reasons
It's acting was a mixed bag and weaker than tfa
The "first act" consists of a rescue that neither builds up the characters or advance the plot...it is complete fluff and it doesn't help that han solo never contributes anything to the film
This film has a pitiful antagonist in the form of the emperor...he is a one dimensional cartoon who is a step down from darth vader and serves no other point but to create a quick and easy and lazy redemption scene(instead of using gary kurz's more realistic version of the redemption which featured vader wanting to make amends in a more subtle and sohphiscated way)
Kylo ren is a much better character and villian than palpatine...and a return to form in my opinion
Return of the jedi also put the jedi plot (meaningless plot devices) in the forefront of the star wars story

Return of the jedi isn't good
Those "scenes" are pathetic with one having no real stakes...and a lightsaber duel that is poorly choreographed as well as written
Snoke is not a good character...but he isn't the main villian
Palpatine is not a good character but he is the main villian...thus he is worse
Rey has a personality with actual agency
Han solo is a pitiful character who peaked in empire strikes back but just kind of tags along...same applies with leia
it is telling that force awakens has better reviews than return of the jedi (imdb being the only review site to say otherwise).
Return of the jedi is a pitiful film that you only like because of nostalgia...nothing more
No Fin is a pitiful character who does nothing but pant and sweat and make stupid jokes. None of his actions make sense.
And Rey doesn't have a personality you just want to bone her. Her personality is literally the same as every other "tough girl" in every movie ever
Rey has real personality...while han solo was a pitiful "character" who tagged along in return of the jedi
Return of the jedi is fanfiction and the majority agree with me
Thank god the force awakens didn't please you...especially if you think return of the jedi is anything but twilight level trash
All your points are accurate. We also can't forget the random storm trooper who managed to hold his own with a lightsaber against a with lord
shareI was watching ROTJ recently and discovered that there's one Ewok that I don't mind the look of. I think his name's Teebo (he has a kind of lizard-skull helmet) and he looks kind of feral and mean. I think if they'd all looked like him (the others look like effing Care Bears) it would have been a lot better.
shareit would be fairly easy to un-kiddify the ewok battle. just show the true extent of the ewok's losses against a superior force. in the movie we see one (1!) ewok die, and his friend has enough time to morn him. compared to the 30+ storm troopers that get killed. If it was shown they were loosing the battle, only to turn things around at the end (thanks mostly to captured AT-ST) then the battle would have felt so much more 'hard earned'. Also we could have the ewoks appear a little more ferocious and blood thirsty would definitely help.

The ewoks are the least of the films problems
shareWhat happened there? George seemed to have no problem showing rebels die.
shareReturn of the jedi is a forgettable film that's only remembered because of its relation to its predassesors...nothing more
