haraldo23: Han did act like a man who's settled down from his glory days. Some of his grouchiness and wit are retained, thankfully.

 

Humby: It's partly understandable that the first half hour is so disconnected, plot-wise. To have Han's rescue mission take place off screen or in the pages of an EU book would've been rather cheap.

 

Ryan McAvoy: Superman III. Do I win something?

 

Tack: Take the alien primitives out altogether? That would've made the story more "human" and straight-forward. Bah, I still would've had Wookiees. 

 

As far as Luke and Leia being non-siblings, it's curious: What if someone wrote an "alternate" ROTJ fan script or even directed an animated film, and had Luke and Leia romantically paired together? Even if everything in the story was objectively excellent, I suspect the fact they're siblings is too ingrained in fans, and they'd never be able to accept romance between the two. 

 

Strangely, they may be more willing to go for a Jaime/Cersei type romance, if only because "Game of Thrones" is big right now. Check back in two years or so when it loses steam.

 

DuracellEnergizer: Creepy androgyny for the Emperor? Could work, if done in moderation.
