    I originally posted this in Classic Trilogy but I think it should in this forum. So please, lock the other thread.

    Oola is supposed to have one line in the movie. One line in the script. Oola says "Na Chuba negatorie Na! Na! Natoota". But in both versions of ROTJ; it has been cut. In the OT; she only says "Na! Na! chuba" or "Na! Na! Natoota" for at least three or four times before she is dropped into the rancor pit. In the SE; she says "Na! Na! Chuba" once and then says something else, but I can't make it out (this is not be confused with Sy Snootles singing voiceover). The only place where the whole line appears and in the right order; is inside Oola's Tale from the Tales of Jabba's Palace book.

    To find out more; go to youtube. Search for "Lapti Nek" (unremastered version) by someperson42 and "Jedi Rocks" by bluetoothandy. Compare the two and you'll see what I mean.

    Now I'm going ask the obvious, even though I already know what the answer is going to be. Why was it cut off and why is it quoted as a movie quote, when it clearly isn't all there and isn't all cannon? Am I only one who has noticed this?

    EDIT This topic actually fits in Classic, not Saga.
