[edit] Revision
I have revised this article to conform to the guideline Writing about Fiction. I have also merged the the article Great Pit of Carkoon with this article, since it contains information that is found here. Dmoon1 04:18, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] A Part Of Culture?
"Like other aspects of Star Wars fiction, the Sarlacc quickly became part of Western popular culture. Aside from Star Wars fiction and merchandising, the creature has appeared in critiques of the films and works of popular fiction as a descriptive term for slowness, a reference to the Sarlacc's extended digestive process."
Could someone perhaps cite a film critique or two which uses Sarlacc as a descriptive term for slowness to back up this claim? I've never heard of this creature being a non Star Wars fan, so the Western popular culture bit I'm not too sure about, although if someone wishes to cite references to prove this, then that would be cool.

- It's in the body of the article under the heading "Sarlacc in popular culture". I can put refs in the lead too, I guess. Dmoon1 00:31, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

- Yeah true you've cited some examples on the popular culture, and that's cool. Maybe you could still cite a major film review which has used the Sarlacc reference, or maybe a certain film reviewer is fond of using the term which you could cite? Hope I'm not being a pain, these are just suggestions. I like your Star Wars articles even though I'm not into the films, still intrigued though. Most would have gone for Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker, Hans Solo, etc. characters firstly to rewrite, or maybe even the films. You may have encountered more annoying editors though.
