Darth Vader: "The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the terror of an Ewok."

[DanielMcGillis-fw]

The jungles speak Vietnamese, The rooftops speak Korean and the forests of Endor speak Ewok.

Found footage of a group of storm troopers trying to escape ewoks on endor but being picked off 1 by 1 would be metal but terrifying

[wonderquestor]

There’s a mode in battlefront two where you’re a group of stormtroopers trying to survive the night on Endor until the shuttle comes and picks you up. Pretty creepy stuff

[Krishnath.Dragon]

Nothing quite as terrifying as something cute and cuddly that is ruthless and bloodthirsty.

And the fun part is, it is implied through the Ewok movies that they generally aren't that violent against outsiders unless the outsiders wrongs them. Had the storm troopers at the beginning of the story accepted the gift of flowers, it is likely that the Ewoks would have left them alone. Just look at how friendly they are first with Leia and then the rest of rebels in Return of the Jedi. Show them kindness and they return kindness, show them violence, and may the force have mercy upon your soul, because the Ewok's won't.

Proof. They tried to eat Han, Luke, and Chew. Helmets were seen at the end being played like drums. Where were the rest of the bodies? They didn't just set that up in an hour. They wear bones as decoration. Definitely carnivores.

Like that game in Star Wars Battlefront 2 (2017 version). Ewok Hunt, I believe it is called. Where its a bunch of Stormtroopers versus Ewoks. With every Stormtrooper players death, they become a Ewok. Its so dark and there are traps set up by the Ewoks. The Ewoks hunt you down and their small so its harder to see them. It's horrifying.

[anthonychihuahua]

I'm new to Star Wars, and I always thought Chewbacca was an Ewok..

That was wookie mistake.

[coltonjobst]

This makes playing Ewok hunt on Starwars BF2 even more fun and terrifying.

[FattyMcFox]

The Ewoks started with overtures of peace, and were met with brutality and slaughter. The Ewoks returned that brutality, and for the first time in a long time, the Empire was on the receiving end of brutality and not the ones dishing it out. The bullies found a target that looks weak, but fought back. Bullies don't like when their victims fight back. The Ewoks aren't extra terrifying, the Empire is just not used to being Terrified.

[generaljimmies]

Now it makes more sense why GenerationTech always hates Ewoks.

Humanity first

[wickdaline]

The Ewoks are more savage than we thought. Must explain why Luke and Han were brought in as food.

[AshGreen]

I remember watching a cheesy TV special called The Ewok Adventure.

A couple kids get stranded on the green moon and meet the Ewoks.

My dad freaked out and said "Run! They eat people!"

[franktanner]

Endor is their Vietnam. Similar "technology" is what the Viet Cong used against the Americans. Sure, they had modern weapons too, but they primarily employed those low tech tactics and weapons extremely effectively.

[rewto]

To be fair, the Ewoks wanted peace. The Empire chose war. They reaped what they sowed.

[johnbest]

Man Ewoks are vicious little hunters. Thank you for doing a video on this subject. Most Star Wars fans just want to push the fact that the Ewoks were/are flesh eating teddy bears. Thank you so much for doing a video about this it's much appreciated. Have a great day and may the force be with you always.

[ericshelby]

Reminds me of how the Viet Cong fought U.S. forces during the Vietnam War. They used booby traps and hit and run tactics to inflict harm on U.S. troops, both physically and mentally.

[Ragnorok]

The fact they have a game mode that lets you feel what it is like to be hunted down by these Ewoks is downright Scary

[SamanthaVimes]

The movie was pretty clear they ate human given a chance. It was unnerving seeing the rebels hanging around for the after party-- we always wondered if Luke, Leia, and Han ended up eating without thinking.

[Warrior-Of-Virtue]

Considering that we see one Ewok operating a speeder bike and another group crewing an AT-ST with Chewbacca, I suspect that the Ewoks' primitive society is not from a lack of intelligence on their part. But rather a conscious choice to embrace a simple life.
