For those without 59 seconds to burn, here’s the TL;DW:

I'm not one to say I told you so, but... [takes deep breath]

I TOLD YOU SO, I TOLD YOU SO, I TOLD YOU SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

For those that have no clue why this big fat blogger is yelling at them with the written word, here is a blog I wrote about the Darth Jar Jar theory that blew my mind.

For those Sith Lords that don't want to give me an extra click, here is a video of the conspiracy theory:

Here is the actor that played Jar Jar pretty much confirming its validity starting at the 5 minute mark:

Here is a full blown Reddit thread breaking everything down:

Finally, here is a good-looking young man explaining how an episode from The Mandalorian essentially confirmed this long-standing theory:

Now we have Darth Jar Jar in an actual Star Wars show, thus confirming all of us DJARnon believers were right the whole time instead of just being nutjobs that spew their misinformation on YouTube and Reddit. 

Sure this Lego show appears to put a bunch of what ifs, fan theories, and running jokes into a blender with some blue milk then sprinkle them with some Lego humor to make a delicious content  treat for us Star Warriors. However, it's different with Darth Jar Jar because...it just is, okay? 

Again, if you can convince me how dropping boring ass Count Dooku out of nowhere into Episode 2 was George Lucas' plan for bridging the events from Phantom Menace to Anakin's fall in Revenge of the Sith, I'll gladly eat my words. However, I am going to choose to believe that Anakin being betrayed by his goofy cartoonish childhood friend who turns out to be a Sith lord would've been the prequels' version of Darth Vader telling Luke that he's his daddy and would've been another big bridge for Ani to cross in order to become the badass in black with a breathing machine.

Speaking of which, I had no clue this was a thing, likely because I left Phantom Menace right as the credits began because I was completely dejected after being letdown the first Star Wars movie in almost two decades was an uneven pile of shit set around taxation without representation mumbo jumbo and more CGI than any movie would ever need.

George knows what I mean!

His reaction along with most of the world's reaction to Jar Jar is almost definitely why he killed the Darth Jar Jar idea, which is a shame since the damage was already done. Oh well.

Anyway, I was already feeling pretty good about the Star Wars galaxy since Andor was a huge success and Mando has been a smash hit since he met cute little Baby Yo in his bassinet. Adding a show that remixes the galaxy far, far away with rebellion AT-ATs, X-Wing Tie-Fighters, and a Dark Millennium Falcon has my nerd boner raging right now even before Darth Jar Jar whips out his red lightsaber.

I'll have to ask Robbie what most of the stuff in that trailer or characters like Jedi Bob even mean on this week's My Mom's Basement. But until then, check out his special May The 4th episode in the basement with Jeff D. Lowe discussing the special 25th anniversary rerelease of The Phantom Menace.
