The best review of Star Wars Episode 1 I have ever seen

[Pellaz]

Who's the "token annoying character" in A New Hope?

I'm an SF nut and I love good interstellar intrigue and politics....but sorry, the Naboo and the Trade Federation crap bored me to tears.

C-3PO.

There is nothing SF about Star Wars.

That review is AWESOME. I'd known about it for like year but only just got around to watching it. Should have checked it out sooner!

C 3PO was the "cartoon rabbit" of the classic films, but at least he wasn't racist. Jar Jar was just stupid.

Considering that Hayden Christiansen's film after Clones was considered very highly (Shattered Glass), I think the problem was Lucas. I just don't think he's very good with actors. His biggest mistake was to take on the whole project by himself. The original Star Wars trilogy had a lot of people involved who helped make it great.

I would agree with that. Totally forgot about Shattered Glass. He should've done what he did with ESB and RotJ where he didn't direct.

I agree....this is why SUNSHINE is the best SciFi film this decade.

Great movie! The music in this movie really good too.

While all 3 prequels where nowhere near the originals, I thought Phantom Menace was the strongest out of the 3 (minus the 20+ minutes wasted on pod racing).

I just started with the 90 minute review of Attack of The Clones. Just as good.

This guy makes good points, but he sounds like a retard that's been hit over the head with a big shoe. I think that he tries too hard to be funny.
