Actually, the big question about the space battle in Return of the Jedi is why the Rebels brought along their bigger ships at all? Fighters were used to destroy the second Death Star just like the first, and the fighters have their own hyperdrives, so why did Ackbar and his buddies bother to come along in their bigger ships?

And when did the Ewoks get the time to build log falls and swinging log traps and catapults to take on the Imperial AT-STs? Didn't they just barely decide to fight them the night before? And wasn't the use of the back door a spur-of-the moment idea, and didn't Wicket run off to get the Ewok army only after they saw that their Rebel friends were about to be captured?
