All in all, I kinda want to sit down and actually rewatch them now. Even though the Admiral Ackbar inside my head is screaming at me.
Other interesting fact: Warwick Davis continued to play Wicket for these movies, at the grand old age of 14. And he only got to play Wicket in the first place because Kenny Baker was ill at the time.
Not half bad for someone who was only supposed to be an extra in a teddy bear suit.
