Well, personally they irritated me no end, and seemed a bit Ewokish (Ewoks I can accept, Jar Jar I can not). I mean, sure, Jar Jar was meant to be the stop character, the funny man, but darn it, was it needed? Look at the original 3 moves, the humor is subtle, Hans quips, the going ons with C3PO and R2, jokes and that. I mean, Lucas lost something when he reverted to a silly looking fish man whos attempt at comedy was to say poodoo and end up with his hand stuck in a pod racer. I personally wish Anikan had switched it on, and we could see how durable a Gungan really is.
