Are they planning to continue the story after the events of "Return of the Jedi?" If that's the case, hopefully we can safely assume that Jar Jar will remain in the past.

"No, George Lucas has sold the franchise to soulless corporate executives at Disney..."
"Nooooooooooooo, THAT"S NOT TRUE, THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!"

The first scene, in the first movie, is a slo-mo shot of Jar-Jar Binks getting his head sliced off with a lightsaber.
Unfortunately, the second scene has the camera view swooping through the door marked "sekrit cloning lab" into a room filled with tens of thousands of mechanical pods. Lids on the pods slide open in unison, as the camera zooms in to the blank soulless gaze of a Jar-Jar clone. Scrolling title text rolls from the bottom of the screen, receding to a vanishing point:
Also, typing more crap to lower the caps count. Fuck you, Slashdot, don't tell me how to post. Of course typing in all caps looks like yelling, that is the whole point you rucking retreads....

Star Wars: Episode VII - The Gauntlet of Infinity. Kind of a risky decision to bring in the Marvel properties at this point, but we shall see what JJ Abrams can do.

That's funny. I have a plan to not watch a new Star Wars movie every year.
If Slashdot were chemistry it would look like this:Cadaverine
You had me at Jar-Jarmy.
Considering that was the last word of his post I'd say that was a close thing.

Recommend that they watch them in Machete Order.
