* RunningGag:
** In five out of the six Lucas movies, the protagonists are attacked by some sort of nasty and large beast. The only one to avert it, is ''Film/RevengeOfTheSith'', however the original script included a scene in which Obi-Wan would've had to fight a Nos Monster, after he fall into the underground lake on Utapau, following the execution of Order 66.
** The original trilogy introduced the largest known space-dwelling creature the Space Worm. The prequel trilogy introduced the largest known aquatic creature, the Sando Aqua Monster. ''The Clone Wars'' introduced the largest known land creature the Zillo Beast.
