Empire Strikes Back. It was darker, the stakes were more real, there was a grit to it that made you feel every moment. Jedi's ewoks were not the only downfall, I thought the pacing of that film was jerky and the characters 'off'. I know they'd developed between the movies, but somehow it just didn't click.
Also: this may sound crazy, like you're watching Clerks: but they make a convincing argument. The battlestation was very incomplete. I find it odd that it was so heavily staffed with capable armaments and in house operational weapons. I could see if you had a fleet or two stationed around and on the planet , but Randall was right in indicating mostly carpenters, builders, engineers would be aboard.
Also, given the Emperor's penchant for wiping out races, I doubt they'd have let the Ewoks live while they built the battlestation above the planet. I could really see them wiping out all existing life if only for internal security purposes.
