So who’s idea was it to replace the Sarlacc pit with a Sarlacc creature?
This one was at least apparently in the original concept art. Don’t get me wrong, it’s an awful change and it looks like a circa 1997 video game graphics. The original was one of those cases where technical limitations led to a ‘less is more’ effect, as with Jaws. But, the change does seem to be something originally intended, as opposed to the cases where Lucas is more likely lying.
