what are ewoks?

Question

ooooh di di!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

Nothing to do with jellyfish!! They were little teddy bear type things in Star Wars films.

Answer 2

Ewoks were the furry little things that helped Han Solo and friends shutdown the forcefield protecting the new Death Star in Star Wars Return of the Jedi. I grew up back then so can't help but know, hope this helps.

Answer 3

An "ewok" is a fictional inhabitant of the "Star Wars" universe as created by George Lucas. "Ewoks" are sentient "teddy bear" like creatures about 1 meter tall that are native to one of the moons of the planet Endor. They were featured prominently in the movie "Return of the Jedi" and they were also in their own Ewok movies, "Caravan of Courage" and "The Battle for Endor".

Answer 4

Ewoks did not make the: oooooh di di!!! Noise. Those were those hooded little monster beings that made that noise. What is this question even doing in the Biology catagory? This should be in the movie catagory!!!!

Answer 5

They are phylogenetically primates, but split off early--even earlier than the pro-simian / simian split--to make their own genus, Primate Ewokiinaerus. They are arboreal, but walk upright due the large tree boughs where they inhabit. Other than the great apes, and especially the humans, among the Catyrrhine primates, Ewoks have the largest brain-body ratios, and perform highest on cross-species behavioral tests for intelligence. They taste like chicken.

Answer 6

Scary-looking teddy bear type creatures in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. With annoying squeaky voices. Possibly one of the worst creatures in a film ever. After Jar Jar Binks.

Answer 7

They're the teddy bear things in Star Wars Return of The Jedi, but I really think George Lucas got the idea after watching himself on the mirror one day

Answer 8

Ewoks are Flumps in a more refined form, without the dodgy northern English accents.

Answer 9

Ewoks form a vital part of the Chewbacca defense

The term Chewbacca Defense was first used in the South Park episode "Chef Aid", which premiered on October 7, 1998 as the fourteenth episode of the second season.

In the episode, Chef discovers that Alanis Morissette's (fictional) hit song "Stinky Britches" is the same as a song he wrote years ago, before he abandoned his musical aspirations. Chef contacts a "major record company" executive, seeking only to have his name credited as the composer of "Stinky Britches." Chef's claim is substantiated by a twenty-year-old recording of Chef performing the song.

The record company refuses, and furthermore hires Johnnie Cochran, who files a lawsuit against Chef for harassment. In court, Cochran resorts to his "famous" Chewbacca Defense, which he "used during the Simpson trial", according to Gerald Broflovski.

* Cochran: Ladies and gentlemen of this supposed jury, Chef's attorney would certainly want you to believe that his client wrote "Stinky Britches" ten years ago. And they make a good case. Hell, I almost felt pity myself! But, ladies and gentlemen of this supposed jury, I have one final thing I want you to consider. Ladies and gentlemen, this is Chewbacca. Chewbacca is a Wookiee from the planet Kashyyyk. But Chewbacca lives on the planet Endor. Now think about it; that does not make sense!
Gerald Broflovski: Dammit!
Chef: What?
Gerald: He's using the Chewbacca Defense!
Cochran: Why would a Wookiee, an eight-foot tall Wookiee, want to live on Endor, with a bunch of two-foot tall Ewoks? That does not make sense! But more important, you have to ask yourself: What does this have to do with this case? Nothing. Ladies and gentlemen, it has nothing to do with this case! It does not make sense! Look at me. I'm a lawyer defending a major record company, and I'm talkin' about Chewbacca! Does that make sense? Ladies and gentlemen, I am not making any sense! None of this makes sense! And so you have to remember, when you're in that jury room deliberatin' and conjugatin' the Emancipation Proclamation, [approaches and softens] does it make sense? No! Ladies and gentlemen of this supposed jury, it does not make sense! If Chewbacca lives on Endor, you must acquit! The defense rests.

Answer 10

they were the species that appeared in Return of Jedi and lived on the planet of Endor. They held the rebellion destroy the reactor that was powered the force field surrounding the Death Star.

Not sure if they appeared in the crap films that were made after Return of the Jedi
