Shimraa, I realize that they are different films... I was only saying that LOTR used CGI more effectively than AOTC, and it was more believable. So maybe AOTC was less suited to CGI and it should have been used less, rather than more. I know the soldiers are clones, but as someone pointed out even twins do not look or act EXACTLY the same; they are very similar, sure, but they don't look like you have just taken footage of one, and duplicated it, which is what the clones look like (because that's exactly what they did).

As far as Jarjar goes, I don't think it would have made any difference if he was CGI or a man in a costume, as you say his character just isn't believable. Personally I just don't find that type of humor (slapstick I suppose you would call it) funny. But then I don't Jerry Lewis funny either. I guess you could call Jarjar an intergalactic Jerry Lewis.
