Not giving any more money to that f*cking anti-Semite
George "never met a sterotype he didn't like" Lucas. No, we couldn't hope that he'd learned his lesson from the lambasting he got in Phantom Menace. He had to go and up it, just to make sure we got it.  Annikin and Shmi's former owner (I forget his name), could they have made him look anymore like a stereotypical Jew!?! It was bad enough in the first movie, but this time they added a beard and a hat to make him look like a Hassidic Jew.
What a f*cking *******!

Hispanics are also upset about some characters in the new movie. Sounds like PC bullshit to me.

Watto, his name was Watto. I'm looking to see if I can find a scene shot of him in SW II right now.

So he's a flying space-Jew. So what? There's no point in arguing it.

I haven't seen episode 2... but if you are talking about that little alien that owned the junk yard or whatever... well... he's not even human.

This is a fuss over nothing. Even if the stereotype is intentional, what harm could it possibly do? This is just PC over-sensitivity.

Yeah, PC oversensitivity.  Typical greedy Jew, sinister evil Asians (the Trade Federation), typical stupid Step n' fetch-it.

So if a major movie comes out depicting blacks as water-melon-eating Sambos with huge lips and a subserviant manner, that wouldn't deserve criticism for being racist?
Che is right, though...it seems to be an incredibly awful Jewish stereotype.

You must be joking Chegitz. Do you seriously think people who watch star wars movies are going to come out thinking Jews are greedy and asians are sinister and evil?

Well, some idiots got the idea that Jango Fett's clones were a veiled reference to Mexicans. Never mind that Timura Morrison is a Maori with NZ-OZ accent...

I must agree with Che here, the representation of Watto was a bit over the top.

Is Jar Jar a gay, black guy? Are all the lions in that Disney movie (can't remember name) black? And why didn't they have a human play Jar Jar. I think that would have been more realisitic than doing computer graphics. You get more a sense of texture with a costume. CG still looks fake...

What, you want more real and, thus, memorable Jar Jar? Are you masochist?

Sorry, couldn't help it.
I haven't seen the movie yet, but I wouldn't be particularly surprised if some of the characters are stereotypical. Lucas isn't subtle.

I hate this over-used whining from people whose favorite catch-phrase is "PC over-sensitivity." 
It's called a sense of decency and respect for differences among the people of the world and knowing what jokes are appropriate, and when.
The power of negative stereotypes is not to be underestimated. It has been used as propgaganda to justify American slavery of blacks, by the Nazis to justify the "Final Solution." It has also been used to justify keeping women unemployed and helplessly dependent on men.
There are a lot of ignorant, shallow people who see movies, along with the educated, intelligent people. Those ignorant people are the ones who accept the stereotypes.

You know, I didn't even know Watto was a "Stereotypical representation of a Jew" until someone pointed it out, and I still don't see it.
Geez Che, your OP rates up there with Arabs who think Boba Fett is suppose to be a Arab terrorist because "Baba" means "father" in Arabic.
This says more about your own infrainged rascism than any Lucas might have, that you "see" it.

Some of my friends at Uni have parents kind of like that...but then again the school is over a third Jewish, so it's probably a fluke...
