Jar Jar was kiddy, but there again so were ewoks and caravan of courage & the battle for endor. I think lucas knew he made a mistake with Jar Jar, that is why he pretty much disappeared in II & III.

I was quite neutral about Jar Jar myself, C-3P0 and R2 are just as gaffe-prone. I think it was the voice rather than anything he ever did, sounded a bit dopey whereas the Ewoks, Jawas or the droids were not so bad in terms of the noises they made.
I always use the Crazy Frog as a yardstick of 'most annoying' voice then work my way up so Jar Jar wasn't that bad after all.

The Darth Bane trilogy would be fantastic if done correctly. As i was reading them i was thinking "this would be awesome as a movie"It really explains alot about the Sith and why the operate with only two at a time and all that jazz
Why do so many people want movies that EXPLAIN things. If anything ruins movies it's unnecessary exposition.
Because movies that leave you wondering too much are complete garbage. Like the writer just gets lazy and says "Eh let them figure out their own story. It's whatever they WANT it to be OOOOOOHHHHHHH AAAAAAHHHHHHHH"
Not saying that Star Wars leaves you wondering but Bane's Trilogy could be fantastic and it goes back to the old ways and why the Sith never could win when they had a million of them.
Just seems like a good idea to me tongue_ss

There, you said it. The E- word... You said you loved the idea because it EXPLAINS a lot about the Sith.
That's the line I was responding to.
And again: you suggest you need connection for some reason. We never needed connection before. We didn't need it in the OT and we don't need it for the PT. If it's a good story, that should be its ONLY merit.

And where exactly was that B- word again? You know the one im talking about right? "Because". I never said i love it "because" of that like you are claiming. I said it would make an awesome movie. Granted i probably should have said "and" before the 2nd line but that wasn't the point i was trying to make. Sorry for the confusion but they were to seperate thoughts
Maybe it's just me but i like when movies from the same universe connect in some way. It doesn't have to be huge and in your face but it's interesting. They wouldn't need to say "hey and this is why there are only two Sith at a time during the time when Skywalker is brought to the Jedi" but it would explain it none the less as soon as it was implemented
I agree that the only-two-sith is kinda out of the blue. But the problem lies in the PT, and the solution does not lie in making a whole new film to explain it.
It's fantasy, you just have to accept certain things.
But frankly, Star Wars should be left alone now. Until maybe some day, when Hollywood is still out of original ideas, they can do a really good reboot. But I think it's good as it is.
The point wasn't to make a whole new trilogy to explain a few thing in the older ones. The point was simply that i believe the Darth Bane saga was very interesting and if done correctly would be amazing on the big screen.
They can't leave out the beginning of the Rule of Two and stay true to the source imo. Bane's whole story is based on the way he destroyed and rebuilt the Sith to eventually rule. It's just a part of the story that will explain something else but that's not the reason i enjoyed it or the reason it would make a good film.
I agree it should be a good while before they make another movie or trilogy if they ever do

so.. i asked this already in the other thread.. is christian bale available?? 😄
Lol who do you want him to play? I suppose if he grew a beard he could be an older Luke. Better than a 60+ Mark Hamill playing him!
Also does anyone else think Bradley Cooper would be a good Han Solo? Or is it just me??
