sexy_shapiro Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 I rewatched Episode 1 within the last year or two. Everyone talks about Jar Jar being offensive, and it was about as bad as I remember it. But oh boy, I forgot how bad Watto was. He might even be worse as far as stereotypes go.

Yeah but the Jewy alien was a one-off. For Jar Jar they literally did underwater Jamaica. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also they made Watto kind of Italian the next time we see him? It's weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
