The new Jar Jar - Page 2

Keenser's more like one of those background aliens in the cantina than Jar jar.

True. Screen time was minimal. I just found his presence not so much annoying as just unneeded. Again, just my opinion.

I thought Scotty was more annoying than Keenser.

lol

Keenser was barely in the movie. Jar-Jar had much more screen time, and a much more prominent role (and, no coincidentally, was much more annoying).

I can't wait for the the scene when a distraught Pegg carries Keenser's dying body up to the bridge after a battle with Cumberbatch.

"He stayed up at his post when the trainees got down..."

How can anyone make this comparison? Jar Jar never shuts up and Keenser hardly utters a word! Keenser seems short, solid, steady. Jar Jar is hyperactive and leaping everywhere.

So far we haven't seen any hidden Keenser tongue secrets like with Jar Jar or Phlox. Let's hope it stays that way. Perhaps his anatomical surprise can be more like Londo Mollari's. Perhaps he can become the darling of slash in the Post Mayan Apocalypse age.

What did Keenser ever do to deserve a comparison to Jar Jar Binks??

He was totally inoffensive, and made me giggle doing the eye thing and wimper after seeing Scotty and Kirk off.

The whimper was pure R2D2.

King Daniel · December 12 2012, 11:08 AM

OMG he's a droid in league with GATT2000!!

Seriously, if GATT2000 turns out to be a C-3PO rip-off, I'll be first in line with the hate threads.

teacake · December 12 2012, 11:45 AM

Me too. OH ME TOO.

But I'm completely cool about him being a Lobot rip off. Really, I would welcome it.

Gov Kodos · December 12 2012, 11:55 AM

He'd be lucky to be as funny as Jar Jar.

Not me. Lobot gave me the creeps.

I didn't even know Keenser had a name until right now.

Probably more like 30 seconds.

I don't think it was ever stated on screen.
