It is, after all, Jar Jar’s fault that Palpatine is in the position to become emperor. Jar Jar was the one that introduced the bill giving him war powers first place. Jar Jar’s assasination would a relevant and important plot point. But then again, were Jar Jar to have been killed onscreen, the ensuing demonstration by me in the theater would have mortally embarrassed AuntieRojelio and resulted in a nasty divorce. So, despite having raped my childhood, Lucas probably saved my marriage by leaving that scene out.
It’s the third part of a trilogy. They’d have to be ewoks.
I’m glad Jar-jar wasn’t killed off - he cracked me up. I never quite understood why he annoyed so many people, and yet the bad/stiff acting didn’t seem to bother many people (even in the original trilogy).
However, it was basically his fault that the galaxy got taken over by the Sith.
It’ll be a variation on the Richard Gere urban legend.
You know Pg-13 is strictly a recommendation. There were plenty of eight-and-ups in the showing I went to.
“Mommy, what’s that red stuff coming out of Jar Jar’s nose?”
“That’s strawberry jam, honey.”
Forget the in-theater cheering. A celebration within the movie must have logically ensued:
“So this is how Jar Jar dies. With thunderous applause.”
Excellent!
I was surprised at how relieved I was that even though Jar Jar was in ROTS he didn’t have any lines. Then when AOTC was on the other night and he did have lines…what an annoyance.
It seems to me that any death should involve having his eye stalks ripped off. By hand. And then his tongue ripped out. By hand.
Only one eyeball, then the tongue. That way, he can watch.
Damn, I’m evil.

I think Lucas didn’t kill JarJar for precisely this reason. Lucas LIKES JarJar. He thinks the character was a good idea. He can’t really understand why the public hates him. He probably had some serious character arc and noble death scene in mind for him but couldn’t do it because the crowd would cheer.
It’s not a spoiler. It said if Jar Jar had died. He’s still alive by film’s end.
I think this is the point of the thread… you’re not evil… you apparently are having a very natural and common desire to see Jar Jar get the treatment he so dearly deserves !
Hey, I kept on wanting him to at least say something in III, I mean it was so obviously him, as he was in the Entourage back in II. I Inquired on why he didnt speak, my step dad was like “No one likes him”. As if that was reason enough
Hey I would have been happy with:
Episode III: Revenge of the Sith
War! The Republic is crumbling
under attacks by the ruthless
Sith Lord, Count Dooku
There are heroes on both sides. Evil
is everywhere but at least Jar Jar Binks
was killed on his way back to Naboo…
I bet someone, somewhere, has written that fanfic, and considers it erotica.
First rule of slash: if you can think of a slash story, it’s already been written.
I was satisfied with Jar-Jar’s role in the second movie. Seeing the intergalactic Forrest Gump bring death, destruction, and agony to the universe – instead of just the audience – is exactly what I would have expected. And I was satisfied with his role in the third movie, because it wasn’t a speaking one.
Check out this link. He may be dead…
