Nothing wrong with that character.
Jar is a fairly harmless character compared to most Star Wars characters. Makes sense to like him. The people who hate Jar Binks and like wackos like Darth Vader are people I would not trust in any situation. They're obviously insane, or worse. At any rate, they're naïve. A person who would resent people like Jar in real life, yet respect people who were more like one of the homicidal maniacs of Star Wars is a person who obviously lives in a bubble and needs constant protection.
Lucas certainly sounds more sane than those people.

People love Darth Vader for being a great and badass villain. I don’t see anything wrong with that. |

And that's why I'm sooooo glad he's no longer doing Star Wars movies; if the prequels weren't proof enough.
Y'know, people hate TFA, and really hate TLJ, and kinda hate Solo, but those movies, while they have their issues, are actually well made. I actually think TLJ is pretty good, except that it didn't give us what we wanted as fans in terms of story. Disappointing in that regard.I certainly didn't want to see mopey Luke and find out nothing about Rey. But the movie itself is well made.
However, the prequels were actually poorly made. People are dazzled by them because A) they LOOK great (and they do for the most part), and B) because they're part of a franchise they love; which I totally understand.
But Lucas didn't really catch his 2nd wind as a director until ROTS, by which point it was too late IMO.

George Lucas - the ultimate non-conformant. NON-COMFORMIST?!? Its quite the contrary!
p.s. I think the version of the word conformant is obsolete. But I Could be wrong...

That's because it's him.
He acted silly in front of his kids, who couldn't say George properly.

He’s saying that to give support to Ahmed Best probably. Who was treated horribly and apparently almost committed syicide
Terrible. Even if you didn’t like the chat user, bullying the actor was unacceptable

Well, I know that I am going to get Attacked, Insulted, Bashed, and be Absolutely Destroyed for saying this but my own Favorite "STAR WARS" Character is actually Rey (Daisy Ridley) who I know is not very popular either.

George Lucas has been insane since the retarded 1997 Special Editions.

George Lucas has been insane since the retarded 1997 Special Editions. I like the 1997 Special Editions. They were, admittedly, my first exposure to Star Wars, as I'd never seen the original version prior to that. I agree with the rest of your statement though, mostly due to the prequels.

I said the same thing once to my co-workers once too. Someone has to stand up for the little guy.

I'd say there are very, very few other people out there who would cite Jar Jar as their #1 Star Wars character. It's like picking Morn, the mute alcoholic, as one's favourite Star Trek: Deep Space Nine character. Only Morn was less irritating because he never said anything.
