Thanks for that, personally I think the giant Ewok idol doesn't look so good but it might be an idea someone else could do better, having it flash by a few seconds before we first see them (not knowing how big Ewoks are and seeing a giant wooden carving all be it in the distance and out of focus might pay off for when we see how small they are and later learn how good they are at fighting).
"They are big and possibly threatening, oh they are small and cute, oh they are tough and resourceful (and eat people)."
That's the sort of twisting about with a first time viewer fun that could be had with adding stuff (but that mock up may not convey that idea as well as it could).
Just like the head on a stick mock up, the idea is to flesh these small furry people out so the audience reaction is more complex than "ain't they cute".
