It was time to let it go as soon as the movie was over.
Unfortunately, not everyone got the memo.

And given the general intellectual/maturity level on Youtube, I'm not surprised.

I agree with you, Quest. had his voice been less Roger Rabbit-like and he wasn't bungling every scene, he would've been much less hated, perhaps even embraced.
"Yeah, it's so terrible about Jar-Jar, how solely because of him TPM only made a billion dollars international gross!!!"
What are you even talking about?
Any chance we can move on to the next disaster? This has fanboy riot written all over it.

Agreed. Anyone can post something on YouTube, and people with no intellect can stand watching things that anyone can post on there.

TPM made nearly a billion dollars on international box-office gross. If Jar-Jar was a disaster, it probably would not have.

Um, TPM made a billion dollars in spite of Jar Jar not because of him. You obviously have no idea what you're talking about.

 Use of the term Irony here would be a staggering understatement.

Thank you. This was starting to get a little old; it's time to move on to something else on the list.

1) Its a movie. Relax people. 
2) Jar Jar was not nearly the horror people made him out to be. He wasn't the greatest thing to ever come along, but I can think of a few things about the Prequels that annoy me more than Jar Jar.
3) Its all matter of perspective and opinion. You can disagree and counter someone's point but its not something to be taken personally.
4) As far as Hollywood disasters go I would be inclined to think that there are an abundance of far worse offences and disasters than Jar Jar Binks.

That's what I'm saying, Einstein. Way to figure it out.
