I've always had a problem with Leia's line about getting that "walking carpet" out of her way.
This is a woman who is a/the leader of thousands of worlds and thousands of species fighting the Empire. She grew up in galactic politics and knows to have more tact than that even if she is as speciesist as the Emperor. Plus, she'd be fully aware of the Empire's enslavement and brutal treatment of the Wookiees and their role in the rebellion. PLUS Chewbacca was there to rescue her from the god damned DEATH STAR.
That line will be removed in my fan edit, when I get around to it...late planning stages right now.
She just watched her entire planet get blown up earlier in the day, and then almost got crushed to death in a garbage compactor filled with who knows what. Not to mention all the torture and mind control drugs. I'd be a little pissy too under those circumstances. ;)
She hugs Chewie right after the Tie Fighter battle.
