Star Warts

Some fun complaints about the design of Star Wars, and, if you go deep into the comments, some interesting rationales.

I was always bothered by the giant worm on the barren asteroid, though someone came up with my explanation--the asteroid belt is part of a recently destroyed, mind-bogglingly gigantic planet. The worm was in its dying days, awoken from its stupor by blaster shots.

(I'd also like to know how the dianoga--a fairly big and clearly organic monster--got to lurk in the Death Star's trash compactor. Did one of the construction workers flush his baby dianoga down the toilet?)
