Jar-Jar Binks ;)
Princess Leia Organa of Alderaan .. She stands up to Vader in a way no-one else ever came close to. Also She has literally all the best oneliners ..
“You came in that thing?… You’re braver than I thought!”
“Would somebody get this big walking carpet out of my way?”
“Someone has to save our skins. Into the garbage chute, fly boy. ”
and the ultimate – “Why, you stuck up, half-witted, scruffy-looking, Nerf-herder!”
And she’s was still kicking ass 30 years later. #leilaRocks

Whaaaat not a single C-3PO in all the comments so far, man that’s sad he is such an underrated character but if you had to ask which is my favorite character then I would have to say Kyle Katarn because you get to choose his story in the Jedi Knight games (I wonder if he is still considered canon?).

General Organa
Obi wan Kenobi

Kylo Ren
Luke Skywalker
Yoda
Jar jar has to be the best character ever!!!! Meesa say he legend. So underrated and those ear hair things… classic.
Han Solo
It has to be Rey! She has completely made herself part of the StarWars universe and she is such a strong female character
It’s got to be Yoda, R. I. P.
Darth Vader! “Be careful not to choke on your aspirations, Director.”
Luke Skywalker
BB8 or any of the Ewoks

uughguughhhghghghhhgh uughguughhhghghghhhgh raaaaaahhgh aaaaahnr uughghhhgh
That is Wookie for Chewbacca is my favourite
I’m for the good guys and all, but Darth Vader though… I mean “I am your father” will never get old. It’s ironic that the so-called “Darth Vader Breathing technique” helps with anxiety, but he causes anxiety himself. The guy only appeared for a few minutes in Rogue one, but still killed it. I absolutely LOVE Darth Vader!!
Snaking Skywalker.
Anakin Skywalker
Yoda!
My favourite character is Boba Fett because he’s such an underrated bounty hunter and deserves his own movie ???
Yoda. Like me he is lean, mean and very green
(so exactly the opposite of me then)

Obi Wan Kenobi
My favourite Star Wars character is Obi-Wan Kenobi.
As a kid, I would wear a robe after i came out of the bath, and my grandfather used to call me Obi-Wan Kenobi. used to think my grandfather was teasing me when he called me that name (he likes to rhyme you).
So when I watched Star Wars, I immediately fell in love with the character!
Mesa likey Jar Jar binks…
Although, the new Porgs are awsome!
Jar Jar Binks – He brought so much humor into the Star wars movie. Love him.
