He lost me with the Ewoks.

The Ewoks were supposed to be the North Vietnamese--I'm not theorizing, Lucas said that himself--and it shows the liberal patronizing attitude in action: "animal-like" close-to-nature inhumans.

The original plan for Jedi had no Ewoks but Wookies, guerilla fighters but without the cutesyness. Lucas shoehorned that idea into Sith in another of his attempts at "mirroring" elements in both trilogies.

Imagine Jedi with that single change and it becomes so much better. Not to mention all the other ideas abandoned for Jedi.
