I have loved the Star Wars movies for years. The original trilogy was awesome from start to finish, and even the prequels are not without some merit. All six films are full of characters, many of whom became very memorable and remain beloved today. But there are also brands that are either so annoying, or useless, or poorly thought out, that they never see the light of day. The following list is therefore complete. Please note that only movies, not those that appear in television shows, novels and the like (unless they were seen on the first big screen), can be included. The list is as follows:
10. Jabba the Hutt: Jabba is a large, rather hideous beast, first seen in Return of the Jedi and who kept Han Solo frozen. Not only is Jabba possibly the least attractive character in any movie, but he’s also the most disgusting, trying to lick Princess Leia in one scene. It doesn’t help that later in the film, when he became a CGI character, he looked even more deformed. To his credit, he is very evil, condemning Luke and Hanu, and keeping Leia as his slave, but some people can’t see beyond his more terrifying appearance.
9. Watto: This was a flying blue animal that guarded . Anakin Skywalker and his mother were slaves in the prequels. Nothing at all to worry about; All he cares about is money. On top of that, which is a bit of a nuisance, it doesn’t go down nearly as far as other behavior. A notable opponent, nothing more.
8. Darth Maul: This opponent from The Phantom Menace isn’t as bad as he is weak. Little has been revealed about him, but with his menacing eyes and double lights, the Hangman seemed to become a major villain throughout the prequel trilogy. Unfortunately, that hope quickly disappears when it is extinguished in the first film of the new trilogy. So Darth Maul is an opportunistic and shameful victim, since I wish he would become as dark a villain as Darth Vader was.
7. Ewoks: These teddy bear-like creatures from the forest moon of Endor are small but powerful, which proved useful to the resistance despite their peaceful nature. Unfortunately, it is difficult to see beyond their cute appearance, and this marked the first form of putting cute characters in Star Wars . In fact, the Ewoks would return for a pair of television movies and an animated series. Not bad characters per se, but seemingly out-of-place in a more action-oriented series.
6. Uncle Owen: Luke’s uncle seems somewhat bitter, and cares more about keeping Luke to help him and less about his nephew pursuing his dreams. His intention is well and good, but he just seems a bit too bitter for my taste. I’m not sure what kind of person I would want to raise my children. Sadly, he is killed before he gets much time to change.
5.Biggs Darklighter: He was Luke’s best friend and helped him in the battle against the in New Hope. Another character with some potential, but he couldn’t achieve his goal. Some of his scenes were cut at the end (though he did reintegrate with Luke before the final battle). He could have been a strong character in the later movie , since one would wish, if it were so, that it would happen in those films.
4. Sebulba: Think Dick Dastardly (from Wacky Races) and you pretty much have Sebulba, a known cheat runner. One key difference: Dick Dastardly was actually funny. Sebulba has almost nothing to do with him, and the opponent is another one who has no potential in the film. It’s just another cad note, and a nice waste of CGI animation.
3. Salicious Crumb: Petula Jabba, prominently seen in Hutt appearances in Return of the Jedi. One of the things this creature seems to laugh at is C-3PO’s eyes. Otherwise, he just seems to be one of those funny criminal sidekicks. Such helpers can work if the characters are developed well enough, but Crumb can’t join that elite club. Waste of a pretty good puppy.
2. Anakin Skywalker (teenager): It’s no surprise that Anakin was drawn to the dark side: through the attack of the Clones and revenge of the Sith, proud, whiny, and ambitious. As much as it did to the Dark Lord of the Sith himself, it also bothered him to the point where it was barely bearable. Perhaps if Anakin had been portrayed as a better actor, he would have become a more sympathetic character. But it simply intervenes to make someone seem to have a bad mood.
1. Jar Jar Binks: Of all the Star Wars characters ever created, Jar Jar Binks is by far and away the winner (or loser?) of that dubious prize. He is troubled by childish, ridiculous, old-fashioned words, and as if used for marketing. While his presence and vapor of inertness lay later, he still remained visible. C-3PO and R2-D2 were funny, as were Han Solo and Chewbacca, but Binks was the only one to suffer. Let’s hope he never produces another Star Wars movie again.
The characters listed above ranged from those who wasted potential to those who should not have been shown on screen. In fact, those should have been done with them, to extinguish their origins and personalities, making them more suitable for the list of the best Star Wars characters (which we will write at a later time). The latter, on the contrary, argues that some characters simply do not work, no matter how hard one tries to make them likable. In a perfect world, every Star Wars character would excel to some degree, but for now we have to suffer those who have had to for no reason, and who will surely remain unloved for many years to come.
