Jar Jar Binks Must Die
Book by Daniel M. Kimmel
Jar Jar Binks Must Die (subtitled ...and Other Observations about Science Fiction Movies) is a 2011 collection of 42 essays by film critic Daniel M. Kimmel, published in a trade paperback edition by Fantastic Books in March 2011, with a second printing following five months later.[1]
Binks in the title is an aside to the Star Wars CGI character who was poorly received; the title gives voice to the extent of the lack of warmth his negative critics had over the controversy raised by Binks' characterization and what it was felt to engender.
The collection was a finalist for the Hugo Award for Best Related Work in 2012.[2] Although it tied for first in nominations for eligible works, it placed fifth in the final voting.[3] The essays originally appeared in such publications as Artemis Magazine, The Internet Review of Science Fiction, Clarkesworld and Space & Time.
