40 years ago today, "Return of the Jedi" premiered in theaters

George Lucas on the DVD commentary: "[H]ad I known he was going to turn into such a popular character, I probably would've made it a little bit more exciting. Boba Fett was just another one of the minions, another one of the bounty hunters and bad guys. But, he became such a favorite of everybody's. For having such a small part, he had a very large presence. And now that his history has been told in the [prequel] trilogy, it makes it even more of a misstep that we wouldn't make more out of the event of his defeat, because most people don't believe he died anyway. I had contemplated putting in that extra shot in where he climbs out of the hole, but you know I figure that's... it doesn't quite fit in the end."
