I love how 3PO translates the discussion between Jabba and Boushh in English *to both parties.* Why don't they just both speak English to each other and cut out the middle man, lol.

This reminds me of farmboy Luke
Think he's going back to his old look
Yeah it's got flavors of his Tatooine look.
Out of 6 million languages, why English?
Your just hearing English....they are all speaking Pig Latin.

This is reason #431 why I hate "Jedi"...
The use of 3PO as interpreter... for the children in the audience. So he can explain how they should feel... like when he says "because he's holding a thermal detonator!" It's so frickin' corny. It started in ESB honestly, but wasn't so idiotic with explanation. It's why children like "Jedi" best.
If the original Star Wars was made with Lucas' 1983 minset, 3PO would narrate how scared we should be by the Sandpeople as they drag Luke to the rocks. "Oh my, these vile creatures have knocked-out poor Master Luke and now they're tearing his speeder to pieces! We're doomed!"

When the Sandperson surprises Luke 3PO would have gone "Luke he's holding a big bashy thing!" 
Still, there's too much cool stuff in Jedi for anyone to truly "hate" it...

As I get older, I lose more and more patience with Jedi. It really is bad.
Reason #432 why I hate "Jedi"...
Did Jabba really hide behind a curtain with his gang to surprise Solo and Leia? Really? You mean fat ol' Jabba got off his ass and snuck over and hid... behind a curtain...?
And wasn't he shown sleeping on his dias when Boushh first snuck in? How'd he move behind that curtain so fast?

Actually he was shown sleeping when Luke comes in but otherwise yes you're totally right. Jabba and 90% of his entire court were apparently all crowded behind two curtains (one on either side of the Carbonite block) and were *stifling giggles* the entire time. 
I liked how in SW there was no color commentary as to what the Interrogator Droid was going to do. We were left to imagine. Very little color commentary in ESB as well. We didn't know the extent of Solo's torturing on Cloud City and hell no one even called Fett or Wampas by name. They just referred to "the bounty hunter" and speculated whether the probe droid was "one of those creatures."
In Jedi 3PO was helping all the kiddos know what to ask their parents for Christmas. "Oh no, the RANCOR!" (coming soon to a store near you)

That curtain gag always bothered me as simply a really cheap reveal for a non-mobile puppet. So they just literally wrote it off.

Jabba and his gang must throw great surprise birthday parties. The coordination alone was impressive. 
Funny how that fat slug was able to withstand the mind control of the force. He even knew about it

Threepio's constant commentary was too much for Han too...
Part of the brilliance of ESB was recognizing what was going to be cringe-worthy early on and being able to address it in funny ways -- like Han's reaction to annoying 3PO. Perfect 'flaw' turned into a benefit.
That adroit skill was sorely missing in Jedi.

Do the Porg remind anyone else of the Hoojibs from the old Star Wars comics?

The first stormtrooper knocked out by a porg is going to cause fans to scream "damn Ewoks again" in the theater.
