personally, i dont think lucas should have introduced the gungans in episode I at all. amidala should have been queen on kashyyyk, where wookies and humans shared the planet. it would have allowed alot more continuity to the series. besides, chewbacca would have been much cooler than jar-jar. and wookies would be better warriors than gungans with much cooler battle scenes.
You also have to see the placing of Kashyyyk, there not on the outer rim, near Tatooine, so they had a planet made near Tatooine so they could land on it to find Anakin.
The Gungans are important, because first they had to make peace and then they could make war against the battledroids...
Besides, you can't replace Jar Jar with Chuwie because Jar Jar will have a different role in EpII that is necassary for the story...
🙄 🙄 🙄 🙄 🙄 🙄 🙄 I can't say anymore than that. Wait, yes I can.
Fans like Jar Jar. I'm one. If you don't like CGI then you're going to hate the PT. Jar Jar was annoying as hell in YOUR opinion and thank God your not making SW films.😄
Oh and since when did the fate of star wars characters be determined on how "cool" they were? Maul was the coolest. And look what happened to him.😈
i dont think main characters homeworlds should have been seen in episode I merely for the sake of seeing their homeworld, but simply because i dont like the gungans. personal thing i guess. it would have made much more thematic sense for padme to have been from alderaan, think of how sad we would be to see anakin destroy it in ANH, destroying his wifes home planet, but lucas didnt do that. which makes me think something VERY bad is going to happen to naboo by the end of episode III.
