That's right -- that wampa harbored an armless vendetta for years against some guy whose face it barely saw, and when Luke finally comes back to that godforsaken ice planet several years after Return of the Jedi, it forgets how to properly avenge itself and gets magicked in half by a white-hot blade of science fiction fantasy. This is after Luke and his companions wade through a mob of other wampas in the abandoned Rebel base from The Empire Strikes Back. So it's like Deep Blue Sea, in space.
