This Darth Jar Jar Theory From A Couple Of Years Ago Blew My Fucking Mind

The actor that played Jar Jar discusses the theory:

Reddit thread with more in depth stuff

So yesterday I was bullshitting with Devlin as he played his game for the Barstool NFL Franchise Video Game League and somehow Star Wars came up. We got into how crazy of a twist Darth Vader being Luke’s father must have been (#SPOILER) before it became one of the most iconic and mispronounced movie quotes of all-time.

Then Devlin started discussing this Jar Jar theory and almost caused my brain to explode in front of the dozens…AND DOZENS of Twitch viewers around the world. I had seen Photoshops and heard jokes about Jar Jar was going to be Snoke or a Sith and I knew there were videos discussing this stuff. But never in a billion years that there was actually some sort of validity or proof to that nonsense. And if you watch those videos, you can definitely be convinced that something was going on outside of George Lucas causing millions of childhoods to cry out in terror. If this theory is actually true, it changes the way I view the prequels. Don’t get me wrong, they are still an absolute dogshit dumpster fire on par with the the Isiah Thomas Knicks. But if George was slow-conning our asses to a reveal that was anywhere near Darth being Luke’s father, I have to tip my cap. Not a full tip because The Phantom Menace was a pile of trash. But still, I have to respect the plan of Jar Jar Keyser Sozeing the fuck out of our asses. I may need to get woke and go down a conspiracy theory YouTube wormhole that stops just short of any Alex Jones bullshit.

I wish Lucas didn’t back down because of the Jar Jar outrage from Phantom Menace. But I can only imagine the type of letters and emails he received from Star Wars diehards that make Robbie Fox look like a casual fan. A Yoda vs. Sith Jar Jar fight would have been fucking siiiiiiiick. Jar Jar was underratedly thicc as hell and had the yellow eyes of a real sick Sith fuck that could have had a chance of pushing Yoda’s shit in via lightsaber. Instead we got lame ass Count Dooku and General Grievous.

Speaking of Robbie Fox, he told me about this video of Lucas’ reaction to The Phantom Menace, which at least gives me a smidge of hope that he realized how much he fucked up the franchise before it opened in theaters. There was still good in him after all.

Yeah this is an extremely random blog for the Stool, but it’s a slow ass Saturday morning. I guess the lesson to learn from this blog is you can never really trust anyone. And you never know what the fuck people are going to talk about on Barstool Gametime. It may be Star Wars fan theories or Francis talking about fisting (subscribe on Twitch, Twitter, and Instagram). Now that’s a sales pitch!
