>Trying to attract kids to this already dying franchise with the wacky character
Fricking moron zoomer millenial shit, Star Wars was still considered a cherished franchise in the late 90's to the point that the special edition re-releases made 250 million.
There's a lot of evidence of him using the force in phantom menace. Supposedly he was a counterpart to Yoda that used drunken fist. People think George Lucas scrapped the whole idea because Jar-Jar was so brutally and universally panned and introduced the shoehorned Count Dooku to fill his role in the store.
It would be masterclass subversion for sure. I think audiences hating Jar Jar and not loving him enhances the reveal too. >Wace Windu goes to confront Palpatine >Jar Jar's in the office >Starts doing some silly shenanigan >Audiences groan "fuuuuuuuuuck this" >lightsaber noise >Mace Windu impaled >camera pans over should to reveal >"Mesah tink' yousa needa' taka' a sleepey-time nap mastah' jedi"
Honestly, before seeing the movie I was sure he was going to be my favorite. I was fascinated with how intricate the patterns were on his skin. Looked really cool.

Jar Jar's in a space fantasy setting with themes of child slavery and people getting sawed in half by laser swords while SpongeBob's in a silly children's cartoon about talking sea creatures
I remember seeing Phantom Menace in theaters when I was like 8 and I was a little sussed out by the Chinese sounding/themed trade federation guys and when Jar Jar came on screen I honestly thought "is he meant to be like a black guy? that's pretty racist, but it is an American movie after all" since my only frame of reference for racism was like blackface and slavery from America
looking back as an adult I realized that I was entirely right and the only thing I missed was the anti-semitic tropes on Watto lmao
i feel the exact same way about that little rat man fricker from lord of the rings.
You mean Sméagol? One of the most important characters in the book? Kek
Toys
How much dumb kids would want one of these
gungas tongue my anus
If Jar Jar and Boss Nass had swapped voice actors the film would’ve been better
MEESAH WANT TO SELL MERCHANDISE ANNI!
It's not rocket science. He just wanted a goofy character kids would like and would be comic relief.

The Phantom Menace killed Star Wars!!!FACT!!!
The second this wienersucker showed up on screen is when Star Wars died!!!FACT!!!
He's a sith lord.
If they would have had him turn heel I would have watched. No guts by them.

Darth Jar Jar would have been superior. Wish he had done it.
It would be masterclass subversion for sure. I think audiences hating Jar Jar and not loving him enhances the reveal too.

Oh yeah
Honestly, before seeing the movie I was sure he was going to be my favorite. I was fascinated with how intricate the patterns were on his skin. Looked really cool.
He was trying to make this dumb rabbit alien for the kids and subvert expectations by making him turn out to be a sith lord. It never panned out.
I think he originally wanted Jar Jar to be the one behind it all but changed his mind at some point,
He forgot that target audience of Star Wars was boys who like things that are cool and instead tried to appeal to the preschooler audience.
Tried to appeal to kids while also underestimating them. Simple as.
I think he was supposed to be beloved, so that Anakin could kill him as he turned evil, but cancelled it when he realised it would result in cheers.
Lawd I done seen many thangs Mr. Qui-Gon, but I aint seen no droids no how!
Still better than the nu-trash trilogy with Rey and token black man.
