Listen To Robin Williams Make George Lucas Laugh in Conversation About STAR WARS and Jar Jar Binks Backlash
A conversation between George Lucas and Robin Williams has been making the rounds recently from “Robin Williams interviews The Flanneled One,” which is a series that was launched on Audible back in 2000.
During the conversation, Star Wars creator George Lucas sat down with Williams to talk about the fan backlash over Jar Jar Binks in Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. Lucas also spoke about stereotypes in the film along with C-3PO, Yoda, the Ewoks, Darth Maul, Watto, and all the accents required for the characters.
Of course, during the interview, Williams was doing hilarious impressions of the characters from the franchise including Binks and a Scottish Stormtrooper. One of the best parts about this interview is that Williams constantly makes George Lucas laugh, and hearing Lucas laugh seems like a rare thing! This is great!
