But you must admit they had more of an emotional range than JarJar. I remember
feeling sorry for the young Ewok who was wailing over his dead parent (I assume
it was a parent, if not, it was a relative or friend). Where watching TPM I
felt sorry that JarJar was not sucked into the Pod Racer's engines.
Also don't forget the Ewoks captured the Rebels. The Gungans hid.
And finally, I would rather give an Ewok teddy bear to my niece than a JarJar
doll.
