10 Good Movies That Completely Botched Their Final Act

5. Star Wars: Return Of The Jedi

Much like The Lord of the Rings franchise, it would have taken something incredibly atrocious to destroy Star Wars for its galaxies of fans across the universe (prequel trilogy, anyone?), but a bunch of annoying teddy bears gave it a good go back in 1983. Arguably, after the darker tone to Empire Strikes Back, George Lucas and co. thought it to be a reasonable excuse to reintroduce some child-friendly antics so as not to alienate younger viewers. And yes, the Ewok's were cute for a bit, and it was absolutely heart-wrenching to see an Ewok mourn the death of its furry friend, but the amount of importance and power given to them is baffling. It makes you wonder why the Rebellion didn't recruit them years ago if they had the ability to take out the Empire single-handedly with a few sticks and rocks. The whole party scene squirts the cream cheese on top of the cheesecake and once the self-celebratory patting themselves on the back is concluded, we're glad that it didn't last any longer. Just try and forget that Lucas slapped Hayden Christensen in there years later, just to make matters worse.
