10 Things Everyone Always Gets Wrong About Star Wars
10. The Ewoks Are Friendly Little Teddy Bears
Yes, Ewoks are incredibly cute - adorable, even - but so are bears, honey badgers, and daresay even Wookies; that doesn't mean they aren't going to try and rip you to shreds if given a chance.
The general consensus on these little fellas is that they are the sweet, helpful and friendly type. But, that conclusion ignores plenty of warning signs given in Return of the Jedi. Assuming the best from these creatures completely forgoes that they are dangerous warriors with a penchant for devouring any meat they come across. Let's not forget that the first thing they tried to do with Luke, Han, and Chewie was eat them.
Their more dangerous nature isn't even hidden - it's right there on the surface. If you look around the ensemble of these Endor Moon inhabitants, you'll see that plenty of them have adorned themselves with skulls and bones, using them for primitive tools and even decoration.
They are indeed cute. But, what kind of friendly creatures kill, skin and keep the trophies of those they have defeated? Simply put, the Ewoks are deadly, which is why those Stormtroopers never stood a chance.
