n1 10/17/99 9:26 PM i cant even believe you didnt like TPM it was

so great

n1 10/17/99 9:26 PM and Jar Jar is the man....

joe 10/17/99 9:26 PM dude... TPM tried to fit in with the little

kids wyayy too much.

n1 10/17/99 9:27 PM but you were probly like everyone else and

believed all the hype or waht the critics siad

so you were either disapointed or going in

believing what the critics said not giving it

a chance

n1 10/17/99 9:27 PM whatever.....

n1 10/17/99 9:27 PM i'd like to know what you mean by that...

joe 10/17/99 9:27 PM no no no..i saw it 4 times..i ENJOYED the

movie as a movie...but as a starwars movie it

sucked.

n1 10/17/99 9:27 PM yea if they woulda added ne thing the movie

woulda been R i mean they wanted to rate lion

king PG

n1 10/17/99 9:28 PM WTF you talking bout ....probly cuz you dont

know how its gonna fit w/ the others....

n1 10/17/99 9:28 PM you never really saw or recalled just star

wars you remembered the Sw trilogy which made

it great for you not the one movie

joe 10/17/99 9:28 PM umm..dude there was nothing bad in it...do you

know why there were battle droids? answer:

can't chop up living things. JarJar binks:

for the kiddies. everything in the movie was

for little kids except the ending was cool.

n1 10/17/99 9:29 PM once the whole triliogy comes out i believe

you'll enjoy it more....plus you woulda probly

liked the movie more if it was more like the

book...see i had read the book then saw the

movie 2 weeks before it came out

joe 10/17/99 9:29 PM hmmm no. Actually i was a little

dissappointed by return of the jedi due to

ewoks, but the jar jar shit was wayyy too

much.

joe 10/17/99 9:30 PM dude you can't do that though. I mean the

point is to watch the movie first =P

n1 10/17/99 9:30 PM dude jar jar was the man you non humorous

person...plus if you get lil kids liking the

movie now you have OLD and NEW kids for sw2

joe 10/17/99 9:31 PM George lucas seemed more interested in selling

ot the little kids than selling to the fans.

n1 10/17/99 9:31 PM maybe so since he has some of his own now....

n1 10/17/99 9:32 PM but if tpm didnt have jar jar no one woulda of

liked it since it was a lot more narrative cuz

he was setting up the next 5 movies

joe 10/17/99 9:32 PM the 2 good parts of the movie are:

natalie portman has a hard nipple AND the

final battle sequence.

n1 10/17/99 9:33 PM jeez you were looking that hard your eyes musta

fell out

n1 10/17/99 9:34 PM i hope jar jar comes back just for you in ep2

joe 10/17/99 9:34 PM go ahead =) but seriously dude...the key part

is...they could have done non cheesy humor.

We all laughed at Chewie for his strong

sweetness. But instead we got the duckbilled

platapuss versoin of roger rabbit.

n1 10/17/99 9:35 PM have you read the excerpt from washington

times about NJO?

joe 10/17/99 9:35 PM dude..don't even say that man cuz we all know

he's not cool at all. every person i talked

to in my class about the movie said jar jar

ruined it.

joe 10/17/99 9:35 PM sir no sir.

n1 10/17/99 9:36 PM ive heard that alot but you all just want sw

as a real serious movie

n1 10/17/99 9:36 PM well then i shant tell you

joe 10/17/99 9:37 PM well here's what's up. I want it to have some

comic relief, but a character who isn't just

an annoyance. Now jar jar was such a classic

corny cartoon character that it was just bad

n1 10/17/99 9:37 PM if there was no jar jar humor what would there

be nothing it would be too of a serious movie

for ne one to watch it cuz they would all

leave during the 1st 5 minutes

n1 10/17/99 9:38 PM so your saying if jar jar had as many lines as

darth maul you woulda liked him beter?

joe 10/17/99 9:38 PM no no no...You can have a humorous character,

without it being a cheesy character.

joe 10/17/99 9:38 PM NO i'm saying if you erased jarjar...put in a

funny character that was only funny every now

and then and wasn't normally stupid. You can

have some1 funny who isn't a retard

n1 10/17/99 9:40 PM if jar jar wasnt a retard he wouldnt have got

saved by quigon then there woulda been no

funny character at all...you shoulda known jar

jar is gonna be an annoyance cuz he was

banished from his city...he was an annoyance

to you and the characters acting in the movie

joe 10/17/99 9:40 PM but he was just that...annoying

n1 10/17/99 9:41 PM yes...to some...i think he was suppose to be

funny to the audience but not to the actors

...but it happened to turn out to be annoying

for some of the audience too

n1 10/17/99 9:42 PM r u one who believes jar jar is a racist

stereotype too?

joe 10/17/99 9:42 PM nah most ppl i know hate jarjar..it's usually

dumb women or younger ppl who find him funny.

joe 10/17/99 9:42 PM No i just believe he's there to attract

children. That's it...he's meant to be hated

by adult...but it doesn't matter cuz the kids

will want the toys.

n1 10/17/99 9:43 PM well u insulted half the population of the

world there ....but i cant even fathom how

boring the movie woulda been if there was no

jar jar

n1 10/17/99 9:43 PM maybe so cuz sw toys have made more than any

other toys i think and a very good promotional

technique

joe 10/17/99 9:44 PM dude...if they replaced jarjar with another

funny character that just was actually fuckin

funny and likeable..i'd love it. Like

chewie...i mean put jarjar in chewies place

and that's how i feel heh.

n1 10/17/99 9:45 PM so if you had to pick a less corny jar jar or

a chewbacca for ep2 who would you put?

joe 10/17/99 9:45 PM i'd have to put a less corny jarjar...ya see

chewie was funny..jar jar is supposed to be

funny. However chewy was sweet and

strong..while jarjar is nice and annoying. If

jarjar wasn't as corny the movie would have

been sooo much better. chewie wasn't corny.

n1 10/17/99 9:46 PM i can see that you may have liked jar jar at

first but then thought that he was a total

annoyance as the film went on further and you

didnt care about his troubles...

joe 10/17/99 9:47 PM well in the beginning i was like "ok this guy

is gay i really hope he dies or moves on

during the film" then i kinda liked him for

half a scene where his tongue was numb...then

after that i hated him again...and i was

seriously pissed when he was fine / still with

them at the end.

n1 10/17/99 9:47 PM you almost need an annoying jar jar to act as

a contrast for all the other characters that

are just plain and do nothing

romantic..funny..anything but just sit there

n1 10/17/99 9:48 PM would you felt beter if jar jar was replaced

by bozo in ep1?

joe 10/17/99 9:49 PM bah...ya see i like some funny characters..i

like watto..if he followed them i'd be happy

and he'd be funny.

n1 10/17/99 9:49 PM watto was a junk dealer why'd they follow

him..he follows the jedi not a dumb junk

dealer w/ too high of prices

n1 10/17/99 9:50 PM i dont even see why you thought watto was

funny?

joe 10/17/99 9:50 PM watto wasn't that funny...it's just that he

had very good character..he could get them in

trouble, but he wasn't a complete fuckin

retard

n1 10/17/99 9:51 PM alrighty then point taken ..was there ne

aspect of jar jar or the movie you did like?

joe 10/17/99 9:52 PM umm...not really. I really can't think of a

point where i said "yeah go jarjar!"

n1 10/17/99 9:52 PM oic so you just hated him in evey aspect

possible..

n1 10/17/99 9:53 PM so was there ne part of the movie you liked

besides the fight at the end? or was the movie

so bad that it shouldnt have the label of star

wars on it?

joe 10/17/99 9:54 PM well the battles were nice...the queen

certianly looked good (not hot wise, but the

makeup was ingenious) overall the plot was

decent, but the pod race/anything with jarjar

really made me feel like i was ripped out of

the starwars universe.

n1 10/17/99 9:55 PM most people thought the pod race and the end

fight were the two best scenes in the movie y

didnt you like the pod race..too corny for ya?

joe 10/17/99 9:56 PM ok man i gotta go...the race was corny.

n1 10/17/99 9:57 PM later
