Ady has stated his intension to cut Threepio from TPM and AOTC.

I wish there was a believable way of replacing some of Jar Jar scenes with a senate protocol droid and who is sent with Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan to negotiate with the Feds.

The droids being peripheral characters in the whole saga was one of Lucas' many 'promises'.

I'm more for giving him something in character to do than cutting him out.

Threepio is a protocol droid, he has a habit of stumbling into dangerous situations and providing light comic relief.

There is quite a lot of Tony doing Threepio to create dialogue from.

If Jar Jar can be partially painted out and sometimes replaced by a protocol droid that isn't built by Anakin I'd be all for it but I appreciate that it may be impossible or at least prohibitively difficult.
