Jar Jar Binks, and not C3PO? I mean, C3PO is just as annoying in his own way, but he doesn't cop nearly as much flak. I kind of like him, but i hate Jar Jar, and that seems to be a widely-held set of opinions...

Originally posted by geniusyeah, Yoda can definitely be annoying, with that mystic kung fu master pose he puts on - before Jar Jar showed up, i thought he was the most annoying character.
i was watching "the empire strikes back" the other day, and relised that yoda is actually kinda irratating too. so, if C3PO, yado and jar jar are all irritating, i think luca might have been trying to slip in irritating characters. only problem is, jar jar back fired...
i think u r right - it's something to do with Lucas. LOTR got through 3 movies without a single annoying character (although the dwarf tried his best), and even though the last two Matrix movies sucked, they didn't have any really annoying characters. Terminator also got through 3 movies without annoying characters.

There was a show on sci-fi here called "tripping the rift" and in one ep they meet this irratating character named "toada" I think.
The lead character says to him " talk backwards much you do, p!sses me off much it does" I thought it was funny.
At the end of the ep the lead is eating toad legs for dinner.

And of cousre beards rule.
C3PO is intelligent, just naive, Jar-Jar is an idiot AND naive. That's enough for me to hate him.

I always found it a bit odd that a film that was so influenced by Japanese and Chinese films never had any asian biased characters.
