Thread: 70 minute YouTube review of SW Episode I - TPM

  1. #21
    If anyone finds it hard to sit through the full 90 mins (or so) of the entire review, just watch the 3rd video - in that one he pretty much sums up all his critiques about ROTS, the prequels overall and Lucas' filming methods in general. Worth the watch.

    Admittedly though I think his TPM review was his magnum opus - his AOTC one plus this ROTS one are also very good but there isn't really anything new gag or joke wise.

    One thing I quite enjoyed was how he brought up points I never considered, such as who actually commands the Republican forces (honestly, who???), plus also how awkward it is seeing Padme and Anakin all lovey-dovey on the balcony on Coruscant with everything else business-as-usual barely a day after the planet was attacked and the Chancellor kidnapped.

    I don't know why I found it so funny in particular, but I laughed my ass off at the 'tiny Han Solo' section. Just seeing that kid super-imposed on every scene... cracked me up.

    But he was more insightful, which to me was far better. He dropped the gags and simply got to work pointing out things that you never thought of - listing the things NOT in the movie that made it better was inspired. Shot/reverse shot also really was a great point as well CAT RAPE and the way he just shows Lucas for being incredibly lazy.

    Just so many things he picks up on like Life goes on completely unaffected when there's a war? that should have been changed and you wonder what on earth everyone was thinking. There is a frigging war going on above their heads and Padme is in her luxury apartment as if nothing is going on?!?!? Where's the damage to the planet?!?!?

    Plus he didnt target the low hanging fruit of absurdities.

    It turns out it was written by Jim Raynor from StarDestroyer.Net.
