Why Copters?

Some of the pics relating to the Kashyyk battle show Wookies piloting Small One Wookie helicopters. Why would Lucas want to put something so EARTHLY as that in his last movie? I think it takes the GALAXY FAR FAR AWAY part out of the picture.

They are only sketches done by the art department. I will have to find them and send them your way.

Copters?

I think it's because George Lucas wants to do an Apocalypse
Now movie scene. Yoda saying that he loves the smell of
napalm in the morning, oops that was his fart!!

Here is one link

well okay looking at the pictures it seems as though theyre not really copters but fly like wings that flap up and down, i think that these things are the ugliest most rediculous things ive ever seen. chang needs to stop with the whole "everything needs to look like a bug" idea. its really rediculous because everything looks TO similar to a bug.

I thought that the Wookies were supposed to be technologically advanced. That doesn't look advanced to me.

For the same reason why he put 50's style diner in AOTC. I think they are kinda neat looking. The whole concept of Kashyykk is suppose to be a hybrid of primitave tech, and advanced tech. Wookies on crack basically.

Well if Lucas has based these "copters" on a real life insect
on the planet Kashyyyk, I can understand the Wookies using
them as a basis for the machines. We used birds as a basis
for our initial planes here on Earth, does this mean there are
no birds on Kashyyk? But I'm not sure about those flying boats!

Unless I am mistaken they don't seem to be touching the water

The copters don't look so earthly to me, but that's just me.

Wow. I didn't know I was the only one who liked the Kashyyyk designs. I think they could have the coolest technology in the Star Wars saga.
