Yes

I get the feeling I may not have seen this film. I'm having a hard time coming up with a mythological creature in an earth-based science fiction film.

Point of clarification (up to you whether you count as question). Was “film” meant to refer only to “cinema” or would it include other audiovisual media such as television or streaming?

Is it Chewbacca?

I meant it to count as movies only, but trust me, don't get caught up in this clarification. Doesn't count as a question
