This is a question Where Did It All Go Wrong?

Woocfot asks: Tell us all about that turning point in your life when it started going downhill. Yeah, that drunken conversation with my dad when he suggested I become a civil servant. Dammit, I could have been an astronaut

Adding backstory and context is entirely acceptable.
Adding Jar Jar Binks isn't.

A quasi-racist accent, "look at me, look at me" screen presence and such a degree of stupidity and clumsiness that in any sane film he'd have got himself killed in the first few seconds?
I can't see what anyone's problem with him is. Of course, it is good to have the occasional comic relief character, what with it being a film series for both adults AND children.

Trying to kid yourself that Star Wars is anything other than a kids film is tragic.
George Lucas falls victim to this, hence all the intergalactic politics guff that clogs up episodes I & II.

Yeah, but it was a shit backstory
- Annekin originally build C3PO? Really? Even in a fantasy film, that's stretching credibility.

- Darth Vader, the ultimate bad guy, turns out to be motivated by... wait for it... not getting the girl. She rejects him, so he goes off in a hissy fit. Well that's mundane. Now, if he'd *chosen* the Dark Side over his girl/children, that might have been at least partly chilling.

"Sith" wasn't bad, though.
