Via Polygon.com:
Movie poster designer extraordinaire Olly Gibbs was in the middle of making lasagna when the official poster for Star Wars: The Force Awakens was revealed to the world on Twitter.

From the time he saw it to the time he finished his own parody mockup, he had not only finished making his dinner, but he also unknowingly created the next viral Star Wars sensation.

When asked by Polygon why he decided to go with an all-Jar Jar Binks reimagining of the poster, Gibbs confided that he had a little bit of love in his heart for one of the franchise’s most controversial characters.

“I find your lack of faith in the Binks disturbing,” he said via email when prodded on the decision. “My first Star Wars film I ever saw in cinemas was Episode I so I’ve got a little soft spot for the little guy.”

Gibbs, who’s designed posters for a variety of artists and whose work is consistently used in Empire Magazine, has a history of creating parody posters for a variety of films and television shows, but said he never expected the Jar Jar Binks one to take off as fast and as well as it did.

“They tend to just begin as silly ideas that I can’t resist creating,” Gibbs said. “It was a nice surprise to see so many other people appreciate who appreciate Binks, he deserves a bit of love.”
