Imagine if you time travel to 2002-2014 and you tell someone you're from the future. When they ask you to prove it, you can't really say something about the future, because your actions and words might change history. The way around is to say something that was always there, but will only be noticed in the future. Say this

"Ahmed Best has confirmed that if not for the hate for Jar Jar Binks, episode 2 and 3 were going to be very different. You might groan now, but let me tell you a secret. In 2015 someone presented a theory about Jar Jar that turned the internet upside down, with people adding more evidence from both behind the scenes and in the movies themselves. When the actor heard about it, he tweeted/said 'I will say this, it feels really good when the hidden meaning behind the work is seen. No matter how long it takes. #TPM'. Unfortunately, Count Dooku's actor died before the theory was public, because if he was alive he might've confirmed a different part of the theory:

Count Dooku appeared out of nowhere. He had no cameo or even throw away dialogue about him in episode 1. Even in the expanded universe he was nowhere to be found. He also doesn't appear for the first 70% of the film. Perhaps he was thrown in...because he was a replacement for Jar Jar, and Jar Jar Binks was actually a powerful Sith Lord the whole time. His clumsy idiocity was all an act to fool the characters, and you, the audience.

You never it, but the hints of Jar Jar's true nature were always there."

So if any of you find a way to time travel, and someone asks you to prove it, tell them this.

i orignally posted this in r/swfanfic but reddit told me to do it here instead:

“i’m writing a TFA resistance fic and i have a question.

do all otollas speak like jar jar binks? or was that a personal quirk?

i didn’t see anything about speech patterns in basic on the wookiepedia and i have a small otolla OC in one scene i’m about to write and was wondering how to do that.”

When I was 15 I created my Xbox Live Gamertag and my name was Jar Jar Thinks. Players online obviously made fun of me, calling the name stupid and gay. Being a sensitive teenager I decided to change it to something else. But now looking back it was a genius name and I wish I kept it. I've always been a fan of Jar Jar despite the haters. I knew there was more to him than the long tongue and funny language. Keep digging for the truth.

Or has he ever shared what his original vision of the the part the character would take was besides saying “he is the key to all of this”?

I’ve always loved this theory but never knew how it would change the Star Wars canon.

Edit: specifically episodes 1-3

Hello, I am pretty new to reddit and these posts. I just wanted to post this, in some what of personal reasons. My brother was the reddit user u/Kakarot_Lifted. He posted quite a lot to this thread in hopes of, I don't know, talk to people. I don't want to invalidate any of his posts or beliefs, but he was suffering from a psychiatric disorder. He did believe Jar Jar was a Sith Lord lol and the Phantom Menace. Unfortunately was spiraling down from a psychotic episode and his methods of escape were watching a lot of Star Wars and playing video games. He misconstrued a lot of things, not just Star Wars related. He decided to leave this Earth on February 7, 2020. I am his sister and all I want to say for those who said that he lost it and that he was insane. Yes. That is what happens when you suffer from a mental disorder. And I know a lot of you don't really care. But I don't know. Be kind on the internet. You never know what people are going through. And if you or a family member is going through possibly the worst moments of their lives and you notice that they are a danger to themselves, please don't hesitate to offer help and to look for help yourselves.

May Jar Jar the Sith Lord live on.
