There he was already during the production of his previous film at the Directors Guild of Americaresigned, it was no longer possible for Lucas to his old friend to hire Steven Spielberg as Director. Therefore, he approached David Lynch, which among other things was known by the film The Elephant Man, but which also refused. In the end, the Director Richard Marquand .

During the filming of Luke Skywalkers fight with the rancor, Lucas stood out to film a scene in the style ofToho's Godzillamovies; with an actor in a suit if the Rancor. The production crew tried this, but was unable to post good results. Lucas eventually went therefore tack, and became for the Rancor used a pop.

Although most combat scenes, such as those in the space between the rebels and the Imperial fleet, were well received, and the Ewoks on Endor fell the fight between the imperial troops clearly in less good earth. Lucas tried to justify this by saying that the Ewoks defeated the Imperial forces just distracting, and not as many fans claim. ==Awards and nominations<span class="mw-editsection" len="373" style="-webkit-user-select:none;font-size:small;margin-left:1em;line-height:1em;display:inline-block;white-space:nowrap;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;font-family:sans-serif;"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">[ Edit<span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">] == <p lang="en" len="54" style="margin-top:0.5em;line-height:22.3999996185303px;color:rgb(37,37,37);font-family:sans-serif;">"Return of the Jedi" won a total of 11 awards in 1984.

 * In 1997, there is an extra scene added in Jabba's Palace. She was the caracter (which in the original version was a pop) all over again with the computer created and together with the new caracter Yowza (also with the computer was made) performed a version on for Jabba. Not only the 2 new characters were added in the scene but also the Twi'lek Oola. She was in the original version even though to see and there she fell after she did not do what Jabba the Hutt wanted by the trap door leading to the Rancor. The actress who was also used in the new scene plays Oola. After 24 years saw them there still the same in her role as Oola as in the original version.
