The worst Star Wars Charactor/s and why?

Question

Mine has to be at the very top Ja Ja Binks. What was Lucas thinking when he thought of this stupid annoying dumb alien?
Also the Ewoks just too cuddly and stupid.

Answer 1

JA JA BINKS!!! Stupid concept, stupid idea, and the actor shouldn't show his face in public EVER again!! :D

Answer 2

Yes, Jar Jar is the all-time worst Star Wars character, but there are others...

The Ewoks in Return of the Jedi, helped make this movie a cartoon comedy instead of a space adventure.

Answer 3

Jar Jar Binks is top of the list. In fact, he wins the gold, silver and bronze medals in annoying Star Wars characters.

Some of the more serious charges against Jar Jar (and consequently against Lucas, his creator) suggest that he is a modern incarnation of racist stereotypes used as comic relief in many motion pictures of the first half of the 20th century. Many aspects of Jar Jar's character are believed to be highly reminiscent of the archetypes portrayed in Blackface Minstrelsy , popular during the 19th and early 20th centuries. Jar Jar's bodily expressions and tendency to get into trouble have also been said to remind many of Stepin Fetchit and other similar offensive stereotypical characters that persisted after the general demise of Blackface.

Jar Jar's dialect has been argued to sound like Jamaican English. Best is clearly not speaking this actual real world dialect in the film and the scale of the resemblance is disputed. Lucas spoke about these issues on British television in 1999. Interviewed by Kirsty Wark on the BBC's political review programme Newsnight on July 14 of that year, he responded that criticisms of Jar Jar's mode of speaking were "...made by people who've obviously never met a Jamaican, because it's definitely not Jamaican and if you were to say those lines in Jamaican they wouldn't be anything like the way Jar Jar Binks says them." The similarity between the names "Jar Jar" and "Jah Jah" supports the theory of connection between Jar Jar Binks and Jamaicans, because they sometimes use this similar term to refer to God (typically Haile Selassie I or God the Father).

Answer 4

R2D2 and C3P0

Two reasons why I've never been able to watch a single Star Wars film all the way through. It's the annoying bleeps and crap dialogue that gets me.
Shakespeare put stupid characters in his plays as light relief, but George Lucas took it too far!

Answer 5

I agree Ja Ja Binks - he was very irritating and tried too hard to be funny

Answer 6

well,yes jar jar binks is annoying,but i would have to choose Anakin Skywalker. Why? he is dumb,stupid ,naive,he doesn't look mean and I hate him because he destroyed Darth Vader which was such a good caracter, such a good performance, and I was very disapointed when I saw how he really is( the caracter is great in episode IV,V,VI)but Lucas probably got mad when he made the lines for this caracter in episode III,II,I and when he choose the actor!

Answer 7

Ja Ja Binks. And for everyone who said anakin without him their wouldn't be darth vader so their wouldn't be espiodes 4,5,6 and so on. the first three movies were how darth vader came to be.

Answer 8

Jar Jar Binks is the worst chrarcter, though Hayden Christianson is the worst Actor. My desk is less wooden than he was!!!

Answer 9

Anakin Skyywalker- what a naive and gullable guy. no way he got Padmay pregnant and turned into one the most feared villains of all time. his character portrayal was under-developed.

Darth Maul- what was his purpose again? he was an apprentice? George, he was weak and should have lasted longer.

Answer 10

ja ja binks without a doubt. what a dumba**.
