| | | Now, don't get me wrong, I think Jar-Jar was the worst thing about Ep. 1, but I can't help but love the lego version. I've got 12 Gungans, and I use em for orcs and ogres. Right now they're all tan, but I plan on making a few green, grey, orange (...) (24 years ago, 21-Jul-00, to lugnet.castle)

| | | | | Chris While I can appreciate your creative nature in adapting old JAR-JAR for use as an ORC or Goblin type creature, that's just not how I picture my Orcs. I would love to put more fantasy type creatures into my lego creations but I see Orcs as (...) (24 years ago, 21-Jul-00, to lugnet.castle)

| | | | | I've always wondered why everyone who hates Jar-Jar Binks seems to not mind c- 3po, who is the slightly less annoying Jar-Jar of the original trilogy. I understand that 3-po wasn't always mugging for the camera, had a few serious lines, and wasn't (...) (24 years ago, 21-Jul-00, to lugnet.castle)

Prissy, yes, baby-talk, no. 2) Threepio was at times a valuable asset to the adventure. 3) Threepio never (...) (24 years ago, 22-Jul-00, to lugnet.castle)
