I agree with Darth Solo, seven, and others that there is no sense in belaboring a point that has been absolutely, irreversibly settled. Indeed it should go without saying that any post in this thread may be disregarded. And us newer members are less aware of what has been so definitively settled. Hopefully that doesn't the quash freedom to opine on various aspects of the movie. I suppose there is a fine line between nagging and trying to persuade. I agree with ChainsawAsh's take on the SE Wampa and feel that a non-reveal leaves one wondering as to the importance of the Wampa (purely a plot device that doesn't need to be seen, a deficiency in the costume, purely symbolic) whereas a reveal functions as looking at things from Luke's point of view (which is why we only saw flashes of fur up to that point), but Adywan's sensibilities shall prevail and shall be appreciated.

I also have to say I'm impressed at some of the details that are caught by many on here (look of various planets). I have mixed feelings now about the crawl which I had never thought about before. Part of me doesn't want the original preface messed with...but would prefer a logical and accurate description of Luke's role (at best, the crawl is misleading). I suppose this is similar to the (non-)debate over the Wampa.
