I'd agree "Empire" was the best of the bunch. "Return" got dangerously close to jumping the shark with the Ewoks

I agree, too, but it wasn't just Ewoks that hurt the film. Making Luke and Leia siblings was by far the stupidest move, neutering Han Solo was another, some bad cinematography, muppet-filled opener, killing off Boba Fett in the opening, and lots of ham-fisted writing and bad dialog. Granted, there's some good in it, but still... not the best, but not as bad as the prequels.

I actually have some high hope for this sequel.

The trailer for the new movie does look promising

Return was great but I agree about the Ewoks beating the 501st legion, that’s like the Army Rangers losing to a bunch of Elementary kids.
