I cant wait for this movie. Hopefully Jar-Jar dies in this one. I hate that thing he is so anoying. I think that this one will be better then the episode 1.

I heard a vicious rumor on a website somewhere (I can't remember where now) that Lucas was planning on having Jar-Jar become Boba Fett -- turning one of the fans' most despised characters into one of the fans' favorites would certainly be a switch. Personally, I hope he doesn't do it - that would kinda ruin a lot for me.
