!The Rancor

http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/rjp-6_2340.jpg

The Rancor is a monster who appears in ''Film/ReturnOfTheJedi''

* TheDoorSlamsYou: [[spoiler: How he is defeated.]]
* EatenAlive: He eats people
* FedToTheBeast

!The Sarlacc

The Sarlacc is an omnivorous plant monster. He appears in ''Film/ReturnOfTheJedi''

* AndIMustScream: The ExpandedUniverse story "A Barve Like That", describing Boba Fett's escape from the Sarlacc is a freaking ''study'' in this trope...there's something in the [[http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Sarlacc Sarlacc's]] digestive fluids that keeps people alive and conscious, though immobile and in pain, since the thing rarely feeds. Not only that, it's telepathic, can force people to relive their, its, and each other's memories, and apparently becomes sentient through its victims - even after death, they become part of its psyche. When Fett does eventually escape, the Sarlacc appears to express some satisfaction that Fett will "release it from the long cycle". He does not, implying that its own existence is an example of this trope.
* CruelAndUnusualDeath: In the stomach of the Sarlacc, you will find a new definition of suffering, being "digested over a thousand years."
* ExtremeOmnivore
