I’d talk, oh gawd I’d talk.
HAHAHA! I just crawled back up off the floor, I was laughing so hard.
Ehh. I don’t know why everyone hated Jar Jar so much. He seemed like a pretty minor character to me. Just another chance encounter… if you will.
He was a supporting character in Phantom Menace, but even though most of his scenes had little impact on the film, his personality and cartoony-ness had a big impact, in a negative way, on audiences over the age of 5.
I’ll play Devil’s Advocate for a moment and point out that Naboo was a rather silly planet throughout. Jar-Jar (personality and all) honestly just fit the nature of the locale as a whole… from its spongey core full of bigger fish to its child queen with the most ridiculous outfits known to humankind. The gungans as a race were a bunch of jolly silly fishmen who rode around on dinosaurs and used bubbles as weapons.
Nothing about Jar-Jar in particular really stood out as all that terrible given where the poor fool was born and raised. Heck, the poor guy probably just had brain-damage from a young age and never had access to the proper medical care.
I imagine it took all of Qui-Gon’s power throughout the Naboo portions of the film not to just pull a Camelot reaction, declare it a silly place, and leave.
OMG!!!
NOT JAR-JAR! I thought he was considered a war crime in the Imperial – Rebellion Rules of War agreement! Heck, blowing planets up was even considered a minor infraction next to HIM!
Have You No SHAME?!?

I’m compelled to ask::
He gets the ball gag?
Actually it isn’t very usefull in an interrogation the have the victim wear one…
Good point. I think he just wants to scare the crap out of Leia. At least, I hope that’s all he’s planning to do with Jar Jar! :-/
It could be so she doesn’t bite her tongue off in defeat. But yeah, I laughed quite loudly with this one.
‘Who’ not ‘he’…, darn
Jar Jar a minor character? He’s pretty pivotal. He may have had a small part in the grand scheme of things, but he was pretty much DIRECTLY responsible for Palpatine’s controlling the senate. In Amidala’s absence, Senator Binks proposed giving Supreme Chancellor Palpatine emergency powers in order to deal with the Separatist Crisis. Which Palpatine took advantage of. But I like to think of this whole mess as kind of Jar Jar’s fault.
Oh dear god, no.
My dreams are now haunted with the vision of a leather-clad Jar-Jar with a whip. “Has yousa been a bad girl? Meesa give you a ‘panking!”
I’ll just check myself in to the psych ward now. Call it preemptive action.
Now that image is stuck in my head. Gee, thanks. I’m gonna go cry now.
He’d have to be wearing only a leather harness and codpiece.
I don’t really see why waste so much hate on jar jar – as far as I remember the whole movie sucked so much he did not stand out especially badly.
I think if he recites Vogonian poetry the Death Star may autodestrcut though…
It would tend to mess up the interrogation if, during a Vogon poem, Leia’s large intestine leaped up through her body & strangled her brain, just to spare her from hearing the poem…
Aughhh! Gee, thanks…
As if I didn’t have enough F***ed up things happeninging in my head, now I have S&M Jar Jar indelibly etched there. Sure as all get-out it’ll resurface on my deathbed.
Why hate Jar Jar? It was obvious Lucas had intended to make him a Jedi (nobody could be that stupid and lucky enough to survive without access to the Force) and he even admitted it later but made him an adviser instead in the 2nd movie. Really? Jar Jar advising senators makes more sense than him being an idiot savant Force user? And don’t get me started on Lucas changing his story on why he did the second trilogy first. He thinks we’re all too old now to remember what he said originally.
You sir, have almost reach a conclusion that the rest of the internet didn’t make until 3 years later.

you monster!
Personally I like Jar Jar. people have treated the original SW as something so gravely serious that anything that is different from the first 3 films seems to them as wrong from the start.
JJ is the embodiment of nature and he is ´s comical char. What the heck is so wrong with it?
In a sense, Jar Jar was the Prequelogy’s stand-in for 3P0 and R2, if you think about it. I view him as the same kind of “innocent bystander caught up in a big mess”. Only substantially more annoying. 3P0 may be a priss, but he’s truly funny. Jar Jar’s dialogue is trying so hard, he’s had to have gotten a humor hernia. While I understand what Lucas was attempting to do with the character, it doesn’t mean I have to like him. The end result is, whatever he may have been intended to be, he ultimately became nothing more than a running gag of slapstick humor and (some may say) racially insensitive stereotypes. He’s a bad character. Not “bad” as in “bad guy” or “evil”, but “bad” as in poorly written, and hard to like as a result.
For the first movie, Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon are the standinds for 3P0 and R2. Jar Jar is the stand-in for Luke Skywalker. Padme is Han Solo, and Anakin is Leia. Sadly it all fits.
Making her watch the Holiday special would work quite as well, I guess…
“Yousa gonna tell me all about the plans, or yousa people gonna die. Okie-day?”
Now, THAT is a SCARY threat!!!
Leia “No! NO! Not Mar Far Jar Jar for dinner again!!”
