I’ve mentioned it before, but in my opinion, most* of the time, when there’s an animalistic berserk animal in Star Wars, you don’t see the entirety of it. You just get just enough of the creature to sell the illusion it’s a real threatening monster. That’s why the SE monsters feel so out of place and cheap, like the Sarlacc beak addition. You see way too much of it! In TFA, you see those CGI monsters in all its glory in a hyperactive manner. Then it goes even further to let this CGI creation physically drag one of our main characters around in similar manner you’d see in Men in Black as a gag.

*I suppose the only exception would be the space slug
