Ewoks

Why are they hated?

Why has Disney not made another Ewoks movie? Nu-Wars merchandise is sitting on the shelf. Sad!

Because they were popular when they came out. It's cool and contrarian to hate them now, so all the zoomers do.

>they were popular when they came out
It was 50/50, lots of people thought it was unnecessarily childish.

>Oh hey what's going on in this thr-
>wuhp! oh no! I'm flying away

I was 3 when they came out so I've always liked them.

any star wars game that lets me play as a stormtrooper and shoot these little fucks

Look a bit too goofy to be taken seriously. They should have been Wookies.

I never encountered that at the time. They were insanely popular. That's why there were spin-off movies. Me and my brother loved them.

>They were insanely popular.
In USA ?

yes, yevgeny, in USA.

Where the hell else? Why would there be two separate spin-off movies of something that wasn't popular? Shit in the 80s wasn't like today. If something lost money, they stopped doing it.

>Shit in the 80s wasn't like today. If something lost money, they stopped doing it.
Weird how zoomers need this explained to them. Not like it's their fault; just weird how it's not a common-sense thing anymore.

Pierre here, they weren't that much popular in Europe.

That's because capitalism got far too powerful and we're at the end of empire. It's nearly Eloi / Morlock tier at this point. The rich are so fucking divorced from reality they can lose a billion dollars on a movie and learn nothing.

>two separate spin-off movies
Talk about obscure flops.

>Shit in the 80s wasn't like today. If something lost money, they stopped doing it.
It's more or less the other way around, they would waste money on stupid projects just for the glory.

>Talk about obscure flops.
Not even close. Kids loved them.

>It's more or less the other way around
This is how you out yourself as a zoomer.

Because George went a bit too far with his Vietnam War metaphor.

I'd love to kick Warwick Davis in the head. Just take a few steps run up then catch him with the full force of my steel capped toe under his chin, send that little faggot flying through the air.

As he lies on the floor, coughing and wheezing and chocking on his own blood, his jaw a mangled mess of bones detached from the rest of his skull, I stand over him and laugh wickedly. He looks up at me in fear and pain, his eyes searching, begging me for mercy. He finds none. I raise my boot then stomp down, splitting his skull like a melon and finally ending his pathetic life

I've been looking at this image for about ten minutes, and I'm still at a loss for what kind of condescending racial stereotype is being portrayed by Stone Age teddy bears.

>This is how you out yourself as a zoomer.
I literally watched ANH when it was released in theatre son. The 80s was the wasting decade in every domain.

noble savage tropes, could read into the ewoks being anything from native american, to viet gook, to mau-mau uprising analogues.

What fucking race, Hobbits?

>The 80s was the wasting decade in every domain
Lol even further proof. Stop pretending you dumb asshole.

Wookiee
WOoKieE
EeiKoOW
EKOWeio
EWOK

They would be fine if the movie wasn’t such a fucking Saturday morning cartoon.

>noble savage tropes
But they're ignorant, superstitious to the point of trying to worship 3P0, and eat humans.

The Ewoks do not display any positive characteristics besides mourning the deaths of their own people, and a foolhardy bravery.

battlefront 2 (the good one not the EA shit)

Which is why "people" were offended by equating those characteristics with those historical analogues I mentioned.

Sweet child, you have no idea what you're talking about.

Says the dumbass who thinks "axchually the 80s were a really bad time for movies".

Because the idea of the imperials being attacked by a combined rebel-wookie force with actual weapons like in the original script would have been fine and made sense, but the retards wanted to save money on costumes so changed it to teddy bears with sticks and like 4 rebels defeating an entire imperial army, it's just retarded.

ROTJ has a lot of Garden of Eden symbolism and they fit in great.

>"axchually the 80s were a really bad time for movies".
Where did I say that ? I was talking about the Ewoks "movies" (literally glorified tv shows). That said yes there were fuck tons of action/fantasy/horror movies produced at complete loss in the 80s.

this, my introduction to star wars was literally a ewok storybook

Shitty cashgrab from Lucas, he knew Ewoks would sell toys

Manchildren hate anything that reminds them they're passionate about literal children's media. I found them fitting as they continued the theme nature overcoming evil as alluded in the previous 2 films.

>Manchildren hate anything that reminds them they're passionate about literal children's media.

That actually explains why actual children didn't like them either. Kids like shit that seems like srs business to them.

>Wookiees are perfectly fine being enslaved by the empire until the plucky rebels come along and remind them that they can pull arms out of sockets
Wookiees would have been even sillier. The whole point of the ewoks is that they were completely beneath the empire's notice. Luke is the one who realizes their value after his experience with Yoda.

>like in the original script
This is a myth. They were never supposed to be wookiees in ROTJ.

>actual children didn't like them either
Know how I know you're a zoomer?

Yeah I'd like to know.

Because you think kids in the 80s hated Ewoks. Let me guess, you think also hated ALF because they thought he was a racist.

I so wish JJ had the balls to used a wrecked Endor, turned into a desert because of the destruction of the death star and all the shit that fell on the planet instead of using another generic desert planet like Jakku.

I wish a lynch mob would kill JJ.
