Barry, that was hilarious. Probably the only good thing about the show that night.

Personally, I believe that sometime between Episode 6 and Episode 1, George Lucas lost it. I mean, I think he might be around the bend, off the deep end, however you want to characterize it. There is no other explanation for Ep 1, selecting the title "Attack of the Clones", or now this n'Sync debacle. I also think he's surrounded by yes-people. "Yes Mr. Lucas, putting 'nSync in your movie is a GREAT idea!" "Yes Mr. Lucas, the kids will just LOVE that Jar Jar character!" "Yes Mr. Lucas, having everyone call Annakin "Annie" is BRILLIANT!"

I have a question: Why does everyone hate Jar Jar? He was my favorite character!

I wish I saw that SNL skit. Sounds awesome!

I think some people who claim to despise the character secretly identify with him, but they can't say that publicly or they would be revealing some kind of humiliating "personal truth" about themselves.

Maybe GL is setting up the story so that Annakin goes to the Dark Side in search of cooler characters to hang out with?

They have a download of the Saturday Night Live skit on TheForce.net right now. Check it out here (it's 1.8 megabytes and about 5 minutes long)...
