4. Yoda Was A Small, Frog-Like Jedi Named Minch
Dagobah is referred to as the Bog planet, which served as a training center for young Jedi and is where Obi Wan received his training. Though that may have been an interesting plot thread, it's the frog-like creature that Luke meets there that raises a few eyebrows. In Lucas' original draft for the film, the creature we lovingly know as Yoda was in fact named Buffy. Lucas describes the character as "Buffy very old - three or four thousand years. Kiber crystal in sword? Buffy shows Luke? Buffy the guardian. Feel not think.'" Lucas even claims that Luke will be the Chosen One, the "human Buffy." In later drafts, the name was changed to Minch Yoda, and was given the "small frog" description. Though this is a minor change that doesn't necessarily
ruin the film, it's hard to imagine a different version of Yoda than the one we received, because he's one of the most iconic and beloved film characters of all time.
