Guys, let's not fly off the handle here. The director makes a good point--we are nit picky. Its not that Adywan didn't like the Mos Eisely critters--its just that he wanted two, instead of five. We're that specific. And that's his point, and he's absolutely correct. We are obsessive in a way that no fan base anywhere approaches, and we are obsessive about minute details that 99.99% of people don't even think about. The documentary isn't propaganda for OT.com or OT-purists, it's a look at the fanbase and it's relationship with Lucas, and examples like these are pretty salient, that we will spend years editing our own version of the film that has instances where we didn't like the three out of the five CG creatures in the corner of the frame. I don't think it's positive or negative to point this out either, this is simply one of the features of note of our fandom.
