I'd just thought I'd point out that Jar Jar is meant to take the place of C-3P0 in TPM, they are both annoying pessimistic clutzes, which is why he did not bother me.

He didn�t bother me eather. I thought that the scene where the Jedi grabbed Jar Jar Binks tongue was funny. But then I am easily amused.

My only problem is that I had a very hard time trying to understand the SoB, his voice is very, very annoying, as well as his jokes. I hope they kill him (and eat his bones )in the first scenes of the next movie. Hell, kill him while the "long time ago..." text flies "into" the screen. Or even better, kill him before the movie starts!

The thing is Picker, in the original Star Wars, Han Solo didnt need to step in a turd to be funny. But in TPM, for most likely the sole reason of marketing, George Lucas found it nescassary to include kiddie farting and poop humor. I hear he did this to attract little kids, but when the three other SW movies were re-released, little kids loved Chewie and also got a kick out of the way C-3PO interacted with R2-D2. These charecters were also popular with adults. Why couldnt George Lucas created a charecter that was not only intelligable, but could be funny without resorting to getting farted at. Who else besides me thought it was annoying as hell we JJB would say "How wude!"

This photo clearly informs us of Jar Jar's evil intentions.

LOL Valtyr.
Very cleverly done.

Jar Jar is not anywhere near as annoying as people are making him out to be. In fact, when you first meet him, he is *almost* funny. The only problem is, there is just too much of him, and eventually I began wish George could have toned it down a bit.

Jar Jar Binks, for crimes agains humanity, how do you plead?
JJB: no man, no man (with that kool jamaican accent, man)
It is the decision of this court, that you be killed in an extremely slow and paifull method.
Jar Jar is taken away, locked in a room and infected with flesh-eating bacteria, who slowly eat away all of his flesh...

I thought that the battle droids were way more annoying that Jar Jar Binks.
�Roger, roger.� Yea, right...

You know, during the movie, I never realized that Jar Jar was male? I honestly didn't know until I came here and everyone was saying 'him'.
Dreadnought posted 06-23-99 02:20 AM ET
You know what pissed me off, was you know when Darth Sidcious was talking to the viceroies, and he instructed them to "kill them, all of them"? Well, the Battle Droids disobeyed his order by taking Jar Jar and the rest of the Gungans prisoner! Ah! Ta ta! Ta! I've got too much free time on my hands.....
The charecter that really pissed me off was in the very beginning when the vicerioys were talking about how to deal with the Jedi, that wierd lady with the ampliphier on her mouth with the voice that sounded like she was talking through one those cheap McDonalds Happy Meal microphones. Achhhh, talk about a run on sentance.....

Dreadnought: What was the line that she said? I'm not sure who you're talking about.
