Thanks I hate it
That sounds so wrong without context.

I really wish they added Gungans as a class in Battlefront 2 2017 it would have been hilarious to emote as a Gungan and then kill a droid with a Booma
or better, you just slaughter the uncivilised technologically disadvantaged whelps to extinction
@@jonny_codphilo7809 Humans you mean?
@@jonny_codphilo7809 gungans >humans and that's an obvious fact. If they were real you'd be dead rn
@@jonny_codphilo7809Gungans would slaughter dozens upon dozens of irl earth in less than a decade irl
I like that the gungans have so much world building around their species. Even the small details like pets! I’d love a video of the favorite pets across the Star Wars universe, with all these planets there are bound to be some amazing creatures that have been domesticated as pets.
Ewoks were kept as pets by a large species on endor. I cannot remember their name might be duloks or yuuuzems.
I like the gungans, always have. Even Jar Jar. I'm glad they were added, and glad they got fleshed out to this extent.
lies
@@jonny_codphilo7809
He speaks the truth; for I too have always likes the Gungans as well as Jar Jar Binks. It's been 23 years and we are tired of hiding I'm shame. I'm proud of who I am 👏👏👏
Same here I always thought their tech was pretty unique
@@jonny_codphilo7809 I unironically like JarJar too
It was awesome when the Gungans assisted in the Mon Cala Civil War.
Gotta love how much info on the gungans is from galactic battlegrounds
Best AoE2 version to ever exist.
@@Ken_Koonz indeed
What if the "evil" reptilians are the Tong? The ancient mandalorian species that was ousted from ancient corasaunt.
That's true could be
I think they seem more like the Rakata
@@jhs2110yeah I agree doesn’t the design of the Rakatan look like the gungans and the statues
The Morag Tong?
I think we need a Gungan Jedi in canon to show everyone how cool they have the potential to be
We already have a Gungan sith.
@@dragonpjb oh god no
@@wildfire9280 Search your feelings. You know it to be true.
Anything star wars Disney does won't be "cool" at all
@@TheSoonToBePurgedJackMeHoff55 OMG wow, your opinion is very appreciated!! God you haters are losers 😂 you add nothing to the conversation you absolute lemon 🍋
I never hated Jarjar Binks. While I did see him as somewhat a comedic relief, or like the bumbling, yet well-meaning sidekick, I never thought of him as a character that spoiled the story. Are the Gungans less intelligent because they speak in a broken dialect? Are they dumb for avoiding conflict when possible? Are they stupid for using their natural resources in an efficient and minimally wasteful way? Are they bad for saying "enough is enough!" and finally kicking some ass when pushed too far? I'd say not. Jarjar gave me a few giggles in the prequels. He also was a crucial character in the development of the story, having been the one who tipped the balance in favor of the Empire. He unknowingly began the movement that put Palps into power. Was Jarjar bad? Did he knowingly help Palps become emperor? I think not. How many others of supposed superior intellect did Palps have fooled? even the Jedi Council could not see him for what he was. A Sith Lord. If the best & brightest of the Jedi and other galactic leaders could not see through the deception, why hate on Jarjar for it?
Jarjar got the raw end of the deal from fans of the stories and from those in universe who would shun him.
Now I wouldn't mind learning about Mauls species.. The Zabrak.
Oh wait. I just looked to the right and there it is in the suggested videos.. Cool!
Apparently Kaskyyyk and Naboo wildlife was like the Australia of Star Wars
Try Rodia.
when you think about it, if it wasn;t for Jar Jar, qui gon would never have met boss nass. They would never have gotten the bongo to take them to theed. they would never have united the gungans with the rest of naboo. they would never have had another force to slow down the droid forces, meaning the palace likely would have fallen.
this means that it was TECHNICALLY Jar Jar who saved the galaxy.
Then 10 years later he doomed the galaxy by voting to give Palpatine emergency powers.
@@williamvose8402 All part of Darth Jar Jar's master plan
I have to admit, in time I grew fond of jar jar binks
The sequels will do that to you, indeed. I miss Jar Jar. We're so sorry, George! Come back!
He is actually funny in the Mexican dub
I really like how the Gungans have this whole world building backstory to them. It just shows that the species shouldn’t be unfairly judged just because of one prominent member everyone hates.
I feel like they just went a bit too far with Jar Jar. If his dialect had been less silly-sounding and he was portrayed in a somewhat more mature manner, nobody would have complained much. He could still be impulsive and clumsy, just not so much of an obvious clown for the sake of having one.
I'm trying to think of a character like that. Pippin from Lord of the Rings, maybe?
While i get being annoyed the fans completely acted like babies in general related to jar jar. Star wars fans are one of the worst fanbases
@@UnholyWrath3277 i know right. I actually really don't mind Jar Jar and I just don't understand why he bothers so many people this much, like chill fr. And the fact that the actor got bullied over this role... fuck toxic fans xd
@@RelativelyBestJar Jar always came off as pretty intentional to me. Even I as a kid when I first saw the movie was thinking he was going to be revealed as some kind of bad guy
People judged a whole species because of jar jar even though Tarpals was kicking ass
if the aliens came to earth and only met hitler i think its a fair judgement
@@jonny_codphilo7809 ????
@@jonny_codphilo7809 you actually ain’t wrong
@@jonny_codphilo7809 Yeah except you see other Gungans than Jar Jar in the film.
jar jar is a sith lord greater than palpatine
Possible Gungan Mandolorians is the coolest thing I’ve ever heard of in Star Wars
The statues of the elder heads, with the tree roots wrapped around them, recalls the Buddha head in the tree at Ayuthaya, in Thailand.
Wait, that's not where the scene was filmed? 😄😉 j/k
Gungans are now officially the most underrated of all Star Wars species and it’s not even close
My buddy Amanaman would probably disagree with that assessment.
@@Beedo_Sookcool they are actually really awesome and cool but jar jar ruined the image . Alabaman what’s up
I’ve always loved the scene in the senate office where Jar Jar says they’ve got an army
In the 2020 book, "Queen's Peril" by E. K. Johnston, what Queen Amidala is actually contemplating, when Jar Jar mentions having a grand army in the mentioned scene, is given more insight. I'd be more specific with the details, but it's been some time since I read the book which I had borrowed from my sister-in-law.
"We have a Hulk."
Didn't expect to see starwars galatic battlegrounds in here but that was a hard campaign as the gungans.
It’s a shame Lucas didn’t expand his original plan for Jar Jar
Wasnt he supposed to be a sith in the end?
That would of made him acting like an idiot and agent of chaos a galaxy level play
Lucas kid-friendlied all of his films, mutating from his original concepts, because he planned to sell to Disney. That is only obvious in hind-sight.
Wait your talking about Darth jar jar he was sith lol
@@rhinosblades4205 Disney will probably write that canon out when they put Jar Jar on the big screen, if they do so at all.
And let us never forget that jar jars own father wanted to get away from him. By taking himself out after he been stranded for a couple of years. Yeah we're not never going to forget about that.
Part of me always envisioned Jar Jar as a figure from the silent slapstick era of films like Charlie Chaplin or Buster Keaton; the gungan is very well a alien equivalent of “The Tramp” figure from Chaplins films. Maybe this is why I like Jar Jar as a character, aside from being a light hearted character in a gritty world, he’s also a tribute to silent era comedy that we don’t see often anymore.
Damn, never thought of gungan as of such great people.
They just like to chill.
I’m glad you openly cite your sources, whereas other Star Wars “official” sites don’t dare to mention any sources out of arrogance.
You do a wonderful job on these breakdowns of species and characters. I love watching these as I play some BF2.
Fyi: a good source for information on Naboo-human culture is the 2020 book, "Queen's Peril" by E. K. Johnston. For the most part the book closely follows the activities of Queen Amidala and her handmaidens/bodyguards, the storyline starting at Padme Amidala's first day as Queen of Naboo and following through to the end of the events depicted in "The Phantom Menace." Within the story are numerous explanations of political and social relations between the Naboo humans, the Gungans, and even some of the politically connected neighboring planets/systems. Also, the book gives more detail to what Queen Amidala is contemplating when Jar Jar declares to Padme that the Gungans have a grand army and that's why, he thinks, the Naboo do not like the Gungans.
- On a personal opinion sidenote, I've always found the decision to exchange the captured General Grievous for the captured Anakin Skywalker one of the most hypocritical decisions ever made by Padme Amidala as the capture of Grievous potentially could have ended the Clone/Separatist War. This eventuality is verifiable by the fact that Darth Sidious ordered Darth Tyrannus to capture Anakin Skywalker for the specific purpose of exchanging him for Grievous. Padme's decision to agree with the exchange without the Republic's knowledge/consent is further proof of the treacherous nature of the exchange. And, for me, this exchange really pisses me off because the exchange undermines General Tarpal's noble sacrifice.
Let's hope we get a sith gungan in star wars
we got him in the phantom menace
Jar jar was supposed to be a Sith Lord actually, I'm not even joking
@@ImmaSpam__________________Can Jar Jar Binks is the son of Kosa Yin Hadu was the Sith Lord and his father taught him to becoming darkside
he said drunky monken fight style at 21:46 and i don’t know why but that had me rolling on the floor
I wonder if we’ll get to see Naboo in the high republic era, since most of those stories have so far have been around 230 bby it would be cool to see Human-Gungan relations 80 years before that big war.
I do know Naboo came in a few centuries before the phantom menace.
I would like to see you cover the Zeltrons next if possible, geetlsy did a video on them however it's pretty short and I feel like you could do a great job on a video
I’m not too familiar with Legends content, but aren’t the Rakata considered to be reptoids and have a strong connection to the Force? Maybe the Elders were Rakatans.
That's crazy I didn't even think of that. So simple, not like insulting to u, that just makes so much sense and is obvious but nothing I read mentioned that and was so focused on the gods/why they left speculation. Thanks for the comment
I was thinking the same thing. The rough timeline does seem to match up.
The elders came on Naboo long after Rakata empire collapse
Where's my gungan sitcom about a struggling young waiter trying to make a name for himself as a competitive dancer?
Hey, I think Jar Jar Binks might be a Sith Lord.
Maybe......
This video is proof everybody
Na jarjar wouldn't betray the jedi would he ?
@@mangareader7474 Yes. Yes he would.
Jar Jar Binks is the son of Kosa Yin Hadu the Sith Lord
Whoa, a actual smooth ad, like mentioning that all the information comes from audiobooks, and then giving me insight as to where to get those audiobooks that was slick I really do mean that
The hidden under water cities would have been a great hidden fortress for Darth Jar Jar to rule from. Plus he and Sidious running the 2 forces on Naboo simultaneously could have also made for some seriously fun films.
Did you know Kosa Yin Hadu was the father of Darth Jar Jar, right?
Because Darth Jar Jar is the son of Kosa Yin Hadu
Gonna take a second to point out “drunkey monken style” 21:45
I finally know what Jar Jar actually does when he goes for a brisky mornin munchin.
I love that you always pull from every source from Star Wars media wether it be the films, tv, animated, books, comics , games etc. It makes your videos so much more connected to the topics it's great. 😀
Jar Jar is a sith lord and a master tactician. Palpi McScrotumface never had a clue. He was dancing to Darth Bozo’s tune all along.
You take that back.
@@sheevpalpatine2128 not a chance palpi, you were a figure head to Jar Jar's empire. When the DS2 and you went boom, that gungan's eyes were glowing orange.
@@mikewaterfield3599 So is Jar Jar running the New Republic or the First Order? 🤔
@@autobotstarscream765 the “First Order” never existed, the events of the “sequel trilogy” were a hallucination Luke had after smoking Ewok pot and drinking green manatee milk liquor.
As for JarJar, he was running things all along as a shadow master. He was too smart to be more than the invisible hand.
Jar Jar binks father is Kosa Yin Hadu was the Sith Lord, Right?
"Oh Jar-Jar, everyone hates you but me..."
-Comic book guy
Do you think you could you consider doing a video on the Tribubble Bongo please? 13:40, 14:54, 18:32, 21:26.
"Murder moths" lol imagine it being murder moth season 😬
Plenty of Gunguns might be dumb but it seems enough are decently intelligent for engineering feats.
YEAAAHHH LOVE THE GUNGANS
Fantastic Video! I never knew all of this about NABOO. Fascinating!
I hope you so more clone commander videos like some of the more unknown ones like Faie, Keller, appo and thire
Great video as always!
Epic video once again
I'm really enjoying your longform videos. Excellent work.
It’s a shame fans complained about Jar Jar so much making Lucas not expand on his original plan for Jar Jar 🤷🏽♂️
To me, those fans are stupid. But also it's a very dead argument.
YESSSSS SWGB
Meeeza will bring back meh-nee fine animals for OTOH SANKCHORE
I love the GUNGAN people!.!.
Boss Leoni or however you pronounce it, didn't really die, as he was seen alive in the med bays in Oto Gunga, being very much alive, since he was seen talking to Jar Jar at the end of that same episode of the Clone Wars. It's a bit weird that people seem to think that he died, when he's very much alive, seen multiple times after he was first shown in the clone wars tv series
Uhh...the Elders were Rakata/Rakatan and were being hunted by the rebelling slave races. I suspect the faces are not of the Rakata themselves, but in honor of a human or near human race or races that drove the evil beings away.
He's Just Standing There... MENACINGLY (proceeds to charge to his death)
nah, i think that last line was a lot smarter than you gave it credit for. Jar-Jar knew the size of the gungan army, the humans did not.
I love these videos of sentient species and planets history and biology very Interesting keep them coming please
I always want to know more about this species
So there’s 3 Sith Gungans lol.
Thx My dude fer another great video, super informative and entertaining. Keep it up my dude, thx.
The King dude looks like Earl Sinclair from Dinosaurs. Remember that show? The baby dinosaur looked like Grogu with the big eyes but without ears.
Lol loved that show
I think the gungan gods were factions of the Kwa. This is based on the gungans having life debts, something seen in many cultures onces ruled by Rakata and the Rakata possibly learned the concept from the Kwa who introduced them to the galaxy. Maybe there is or was an infinity gate on Naboo.
This is very cool! I never knew Gunguns were such a storied people.
Wow this is awesome!
5:40 very reminiscent of the athsheans from "the word for world is forest"!
Here is a question for anyone in the comments do you all think that there were gun s which followed the Sith doctrine During the rule of two era established by Darth bane thousand years before the rise of the empire
Could you do a video on the 2 headed race that was the announcer for the pod race I think they were called troigs
27:34 The SUPERIOR Star Wars Battlefront 2
I don't care what anyone says. I LIKE Jar Jar Binks
Awesome
It could have something to do with the rakattan species
In my head cannon Jar Jar is behind the death of Padme Amidala. And a True Sith Lord
In your head was Jar Jar Binks father is Kosa Yin Hadu
Fantastic messa thinks🙈
blows my mind every time, how much lore star wars really has!
28:58 wait what?! There a character named Swag???
I love your videos
You know, those Glurrg wouldn’t look out of place in the Oddworld franchise. Nice mix of weird but realistic enough to fit in with things like the Mudokins and Gabbits and the like.
I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING
i got way too excited over this comment holy shit
ive always loved those games ever since I was a young kid, there is so much stuff in star wars that would fit right in those games
Also the games that the narrator was playing looks kind of like the 90's versions of the games
Space Jamaicans
Gungans get an unfair reputation; they wanted Jar-Jar dead, after all! And if you buy into the "Darth Jar-Jar Theory," well, that just makes things even better.
MetaNerdz Lore i dont know if you have already made a vid of this but can u make a vid of the complete life of hunter from bad batch if not its ok
General Tarpals probably has the best final words of any Star Wars Character.
Thanks so much! What book do those illustrations of the Naboo fauna come from? Beautiful and weird stuff. Kinda like Brian Froud.
It's pretty clear that Jar Jar was always meant to be a performance artist. Too bad his culture didn't embrace that.
2:06 [cue Yggdrasil or Faxanadu reference]
6:13 mudskipper and frog
15:09 Order is worse than chaos (as the Empire illustrates). Given their obsession with order, they probably viewed Jar Jar as a Loki-like figure.
21:33 "Cavalry," not "Calvary."
21:39 If Jar Jar was a playable character in a fighting game, his fighting style would be a cross between Capoeira and Drunken Boxing.
When the clone trooper said "It would not be the last" and meant the last time they changed a planets government i had a slightly evil laugh but then immediatley felt bad thinking of the jedi temple
Need a nature docu on this
DAMN, I used to have Gungan frontier. That and the Droidworks game need to come back.
here in an hour!
Yo Meta, what game is being shown with Boba Fett flying around Naboo? What is that Knights of The Old Republic?
With the Gungans using so many animals as vehicles essentially it makes them really similar to those blue things from avatar imo.
Gud tier video boss
Jar jar Binks maybe the village idiot but he is loyal to his friends.
Do a part 2 Explanation of them and then do one on. The huttts.
What about Dark jar jar
21:45 Drunky Monken fight style
I'm convinced that Star Wars has the most extensive lore of any IP in existence, and nothing even comes close. I'm not even a massive Star Wars fan, and even I'm impressed by the lore of this property.
22:22 Boss Nas is a genius, he managed to grant Jar Jar the great honor of representing their species in the senate while also making sure Jar Jar stays as far the hell away from them as possible.
I love the Darth jar jar theory but what if he was just the trickster gud nobodo in a physical form who was bored and wanted to cause trouble 😂
Tbh gungans are actually kinda incredibly based
I didn't know there was a Gungan simulation game
Surprised you haven't covered the executor ssd yet
i respect your gunganese
