Didn't think it would be, but this is a TOUGH decision seeing as how both are, in one circle or another, considered to be the spawn of the anti-Christ. JJB by a narrow margin...

Voted for Jar Jar.
Scrappy may have ruined the cheesy, crudely animated Scooby Doo cartoon series. Big freakin' loss. Kids watch too much TV anyway.
Jar Jar Binks absolutely ruined Star Wars. I probably would have liked TPM if it wasn't for Jar Jar (and those stupid Midichlorians). Remember, these movies are like a religion to geeks and losers around the world. And what did we get after a nearly 20 year wait? CGI fart jokes. Jar Jar. Jar Jar all the way, no contest.

Jar Jar sucks, but he didn't ruin Star Wars... George Lucas ruined Star Wars. I think the defining moment in the movie was how little Anikan destroys the Death Cruiser thing on accident. I guess if I was 8 years old I would've thought that was cool and all the 'funny' little "whoops" comments he made would've been allright with me. Bad acting, bad dialogue, bad action and weak special effects... whoa... sorry. I accidently went off into a rant.
Scrappy was annoying, but forgettable. I think that Scooby Doo cartoon was annoying in general.

The poll is misleading (although I admit I didn't read it correctly). I voted for Jar-Jar because I thought I was supposed to vote for the BETTER of the two. It turns out that the wording of the poll ("If Satan Took A Dump It Would Look Like...") means that you're supposed to pick the WORSE out of the two.
I hereby change my vote to Scrappy-Doo, which is already halfway to being Doo-Doo.

Jar Jar, while I don't like him, does have fans. Whenever I see Star Wars at the theater, there are always little kids who are happy to see him on the screen. I am not a little kid, I am not happy, but hey, Lucas said he made the character for kids, not everything in his movies can be for thirtysomething fan boys, sorry. Doesn't mean I like him, but that I can tolerate him.
Scrappy on the other hand...I think the only people who like him are girls who grew up watching Scooby. Every male person living on earth cannot stand him. Kid or adult, he is reviled by all. Well, at least by the vast majority. Jar Jar will at least have a generation of kids who grow up used to him and can take him. Scrappy's days are long past him, and he wasn't able to get a generation of kids to like him, not even a fraction of that generation.
Back to Jar Jar, however: I heard once Lucas defend Jar Jar by saying fans didn't like C-3PO and Yoda at first and now they are the most popular characters in Star Wars. Sorry, Lucas, but I still get annoyed by C-3PO's yammering on and on and on and on and on in the movies. And don't think the "This is such a drag" line went to redeem ANY of that. And I am also sorry to inform you, Lucas, that even tho it's been nearly 20 years now, Yoda's introduction in Empire is still incredibly annoying, especially since we see what he was in the first two episodes. He is so damned annoying. And he was certainly beating up on poor R2. Did they have a history together that we will see in Episode 3?

I respect calhoun07's opinon of Jar Jar, because he shows he doesn't ignore 3po and Yoda acting in the same ways.
People forget how much Yoda was disliked. Not on a Jar Jar scale, but he was very disliked, because of his annoying behavior, and the fact he was "just a puppet". Why do you think his role was scaled down much in the same way Jar Jar was in episode 2?
That said, I still dislike Jar Jar, but I'm not blinded by him. Plus little kids do like him. I always see kids laugh at him. Be it his first apperance in Episode 2, or his lame gags in TPM. According to Hasbro, Jar Jar's basic action figure sold very well, only second to Darth Maul. I don't see why they'd lie...

This poll was a stroke of genuis....Damn you for making me decide between these two incredibly annoying characters....Damn you to hell!
I gotta go with Jar Jar, but only because I didn't watch the Scrappy Doo years. Stopped watching the first time I saw him. SW, on the other hand....I've got 25 years invested in that franchise.

Jar-Jar. Now it seems everybody is getting into the act. I saw an ad for The Two Towers and it looks like they are tacking some Jar-Jar CGI character onto the plot. Thanks, but no thanks. I'll skip that one.

You are wrong. I know it's hard to believe, but I can assure you that Elijah Wood is a real live human being.
Someone has to come in now and complain about how fake the CG looked.

Pikachu is only second to Meowth in supreme coolness!
Onto the poll at hand: I feel it’s a matter of investment. Scrappy Doo was budgeted with a group of animators in mind who were forced to live on a meager salary by Hanna Barbara. Scrappy probably cost about 5 thousand bucks.
I imagine the development of Jar Jar Binks (name presented in entirety to convey impact of crime) cost roughly 5 million dollars.
I voted that Jar Jar was responsible for the hole in my stomach.
