4.5 (2 votes)

The wampa is a yeti-like hairy creature that inhabits the icy planet of Hoth (the sixth planet of the Hoth System). It appears in the beginning of The Empire Strikes Back (1980), attacking Luke Skywalker and his tauntaun mount, dragging them back to his cave. Of course, Luke escapes, dismembering the poor hungry wampa in the process.

Star Wars counts, right? Oh yes, Star Wars counts!

This is an impressively faithful depiction of the rancor from Return of the Jedi (1983). The Cambridge Dictionary defines “rancor” as “a feeling of hate and continuing anger about something in the past”. I mean, if you’ve seen Return of the Jedi (if – haha!), you’ll probably agree the rancor monster does seem rather angry about *something*.
