Okay. Those are all good reasons but “It was the 70s and he wasn’t white” is definitely my favorite.

    That is such a last minute scramble of an answer. “Fuck we forgot to give the furball a medal and people noticed… WAIT I GOT IT! They actually went over to the Wookies planet and they all partied and it was dope. Chewie didn’t want a medal because he got an awesome party instead. The whole race was honored. It was amazing. You had to be there.”

      Anytime a filmmaker says that things happen off screen they making it up.

      If they say it was cut and left on the cutting room floor: then it’s probably true.

      There’s a bunch of goofs on IMDB for various Michal Bay films, every goof has a reply along the lines of “there is no reason that [X] couldn’t have happened off screen to [resolve gaping plot hole]”.
