interesting first post...

although the Cantina was swarming with aliens and stuff i think we just notice those a lot more than we do humans because its something different...
i mean how many times do we see aliens in a bar??

after all Han was in there, the bartender, the pilot who was talking to chewie at the bar... im sure there were more but i've never looked hard enough...
but then again i could be wrong...
im sure theres more aliens than humans... but maybe not by much...


It's more the movie by itself that gives the impression that aliens are scum and villainy: before we enter the cantina, we have only seen robots (good and neutral characters), humans (good and bad characters), sand people (bad characters, maybe they are humans behind their mask, we don't know in the movie) and jawas (neutral or bad guys?). Jawas get their nasty remark too, by C3PO: "I can't abide those Jawas. Disgusting creatures"

(by the way, I'm some kind of integrist regarding Star Wars: fore me, only the OT movies (in their Thatrical Cut) exists, there are no PT and no EU. I leave all that is not shown in the OT movies for my imagination!)
