Jul 24 2008Moderately Satisfying: Jar Jar In Carbonite
Nice, but I'd still like to see more axes in his face.

Thanks to MW, who noted that this is actually on display at Industrial Light & Magic near Lucas's office and may be an indication that George regrets his decision to introduce Jar Jar. Now listen George, hindsight's 20/20, but my foot's an 11½ and your a-hole is probably in the 4-6 range. Just saying, you're being watched.

Without Jar Jar Binks there would have been no subsequent spoof of him on MTV (which added five years to my life) and I really liked him even though he reminds me of other people's untrained dogs.

This is BLASPHEMY.
Never link Jar Jar Binks in any way to HAN SOLO - one of the greatest fictional characters ever invented (and there are many in the original STAR WARS classics).
And to put The Phantom Menace in the same league as the OT is a bad joke.

I don't get it. Why does everyone hate Jar Jar so much? He wasn't that bad.

People hate Jar Jar because he is a comic sidekick. So was Han Solo, but people don't want to see the connection because Han Solo was "cool". Basically people hate Jar Jar because they don't like the new movies, or they don't like the fact that the new movies were good but not like the old movies, or they don't like the fact that they are whiney little children who can not accept that the new movies are family adventures of the modern age, just like the old movies where... and that is not the same thing just the same formula, and people can not stand that the formula is the same but the movies different - it makes them feel old.
More reasons? People hate Jar Jar because everyone ELSE hates Jar Jar, and your average "fan" is incapable of having an original thought. People are sheep, and disliking Jar Jar is popular. Personally I'm a punk, goes against convention, and thinks Jar Jar is awesome. Without him, the movie would have been less. And if George has that outside his office, it is either because of the humorous connection of one Comic Side Kick to another, or because he regrets the amount of whiney fanboys he has upset by making the movie he always wanted to make.
