The terrorist Jabba the Hutt likes to smoke hookah and kills his victims," the center said. "It is clear that the figure of the ugly villain Jabba and the whole scene serves up racial prejudice and vulgar insinuations against Orientals and Asians as sneaky and criminal personalities. ..." Jabba Desilijic Tiure, more commonly known as Jabba the Hutt, is a fictional character and major antagonist in the Star Wars franchise. Created by George Lucas, Jabba is voiced by Larry Ward with several puppeteers inside a one-ton puppet portraying him in Return of the Jedi. He was originally supposed to first appear in Star Wars (1977) as a stop motion character with Declan Mulholland as his stand-in. Jabba was later added into the film as a CGI character when it was re-released in Special Edition in 1997. He also appears in the prequel movie The Phantom Menace. The character is a large slug-like creature based on annelid worms and originally designed as an apelike figure. DeBord, J.M. (2017). The Dream Interpretation Dictionary: Symbols, Signs, and Meanings. Visible Ink Press. pp.168–169. ISBN 9781578596577.Just to the north of Alkhara's tower stood a shorter rotunda that served as the main power facility to the complex. While the above-ground portion of the tower housed a holoprojector that displayed the entire galaxy, the subterranean base was home to the palace's major power facility. Reached by a spiraling stair, enjoyed by the B'omarr monks for the hours of meditative walking it provided, the power plant generated enough energy to power the palace without needing to connect to existing power grids. Off one of the plant's corridors, a forgotten B'omarr ritual room remained unnoticed. Inside the ornately decorated dome, a seemingly bottomless sacrificial pit was used to dispose of the brainless bodies of enlightened monks. [13] Motor pool and subterranean passages [ ] Designed by visual effects artist Phil Tippett, [12] Jabba the Hutt was inspired by the anatomy of several animal species. His body structure and reproductive processes were based on annelid worms, a hairless animal that has no skeleton and are hermaphroditic. Jabba's head was modeled after that of a snake, complete with bulbous, slit-pupilled eyes and a mouth that opens wide enough to swallow large prey. Moist, amphibian qualities were given to his skin. Jabba's design would come to represent almost all members of the Hutt species in subsequent Star Wars fiction. [13] McEwan, Cameron (November 15, 2010).

In Mel Brooks' Star Wars spoof film Spaceballs (1987), Jabba the Hutt is parodied as the character Pizza the Hutt, a cheesy blob shaped like a slice of pizza whose name is a double pun on Jabba the Hutt and the restaurant franchise Pizza Hut.

My vision of Jabba was literally Orson Welles when he was older. I saw him as a very refined man. Most of the villains we like are very smart people. But Phil Tippett kept imagining him as some kind of slug, almost like in Alice in Wonderland. At one time he sculpted a creature that looked like a slug that's smoking. I kept thinking I must be really off, but eventually that's where it led up to." [11] Production, and design [ edit ]Sansweet, Stephen J. (1998). "Hutt". Star Wars Encyclopedia.
