Got away with what?

Leia is awesome in every possible way. She was and is my absolute hero.

My favorite bit is when she strangles Jabba with the chains in ROTJ. Even when saddled with skimpy outfits and having the big hero rescue her, she still manages to come out strongly as a character.

Born into privilege.

Best. Quote. Ever.

Carrie Fisher said, "To the father who flipped out about it, 'What am I going to tell my kid about why she's in that outfit?' Tell them that a giant slug captured me and forced me to wear that stupid outfit, and then I killed him because I didn't like it. And then I took it off. Backstage."

And used it to make life better for others.

And used it to make life better for others.

Now that you mention it, I'm hard pressed to think of examples from any of the movies that showed how common people had their lives impacted by the changes in regime.

They do very little showing how the regular joes and janes live in that universe.

Well outside of moisture farmers I guess.

Though they certainly show the bad guys continually performing mass genocide.

[MadImmortalMan]

Blowing up DS2 would have wrecked the Endor moon. Though I guess genocide of ewoks isn't so bad..

Then how did the Ewoks sing yub nub at the end of Jedi then? Huh?

Checkmate MIM.

Ersatz-Anakin killed that party.

Nope, canon (and Legends) says otherwise: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gGvHWACLXuc&t=0s



TL; DW: Rebels used tractor beams and shields to keep debris from landing on Endor. A lot of the remaining debris entered orbit.

In Legends, an explanation was that the exploding hypermatter reactor tore space-time and sucked in most of the debris.

They don't sing Yub Nub any longer.   Now they dance along to some crappy Zamfir master of the pan flute music.
