Remember the 3 year run up where they screened the remastered originals? Yeah, the hype was at such high levels after starving every one out 20 years that the only option was disappointment.

I remember the McDonalds Monopoly game where you collected episode 1 characters and every restaurant had a Jar Jar Binks cutout proudly on display (these all went away for episode 2 and 3 lol)

  Binks only makes sense if you know how greedy Lucas was. The reason he let the ip linger so long is because he had total rights to merchandising. Toy sales never faltered so Lucas never had to touch it. Binks was an attempt at guaranteeing and maximizing toy sales.
