Creature Designer Reimagines Jar Jar Binks as Evil Sith Lord
Twitter
Jar Jar Binks has long been the symbol of everything goofy and lighthearted about the
Star Wars franchise. The Gungan outcast was the focus of ire for many years from a certain sect of
Star Wars fandom who only wanted things to be ultra serious. In fact, some fans have actually tried to retcon Jar Jar into secretly having been an agent of the dark side the whole time. He did help to start the Empire after all. So maybe it’s not
that far-fetched?

Okay, so this theory is probably not true. But what if it were? What if the mysterious “Phantom Menace” wasn’t a reference to Palpatine, a.k.a. Darth Sidious….but actually Jar-Jar? Via

Three days ago, I captured an injured fox.
Hard as it may be to believe, that is neither a humble brag nor a gross exaggeration; it’s a fact. I crawled after an injured fox into a ditch on the side of the road that goes past my house, threw a blanket over it, and pinned down the edges by jumping on top.

Obi-Wan Kenobi TV series due on Disney Plus. As well as Ewan McGregor reprising his role as the Jedi Knight, Hayden Christensen has also been confirmed to be back as Anakin Skywalker. And with Liam Neeson likewise believed to be on board as Qui-Gon Jinn as well, why not slot Jar Jar in there, too?
Making Star Wars’ Jason Ward has revealed that he’s heard from his sources that “Ben” Kenobi will cross paths with his old friend, the former Senator of Naboo, in the series. Ward writes that early CGI work has begun on recreating the Gungan as he would be 10 years after the events of

I get worried when I see Internet personalities come up with entirely new philosophical positions. I generally roll my eyes and ignore them. I can recall reading details of a few “master systems” that could never work unless they were implemented by a group of autistic libertarians on a planet with infinite resources, free fusion power and access to unlimited deodorant.
Oh, wait, I just described Switzerland.
History shows, though, that one “master system” created by a group of guys actually worked. This is, of course, the United States. The United States was a 2.0 version – the original 1.0 Articles of Confederation apparently needed an upgrade to function. (There are those who say the 1.0 version was working just fine, but that’s another story.)
