    Czabe, The return to the franchise with these three movies, especially the first one you are commenting on have made the entire series unwatchable to me now. When watching the first three I am haunted by visions of that stupid Jar Jar Binks character that invades my mind because I know it does not get better, it only gets worse. Way worse. The introduction of the Jar Jar Binks character by Lucas was nothing more than a poke in the eye. Lucas was informing every single one of us that he was going to mine our wallets for the money to see this trash and then will be forced to listen to children that do not know any better wanting a stupid Jar Jar doll. He would be on signs, advertising, cups, t-shirts, you name it. The character was nothing more than a marketing ploy and we were the suckers funding Lucas.

    The only way the Phantom Menace could have been redeemed and I doubt even this would have worked, would be to introduce Jar Jar and then within five minutes have the character killed in the most humiliating fashion whatsoever and exercised from our collective minds. Perhaps sucked out of a galactic toilet into the nether regions of space, that might have done it. Then at least we could all agree he was the worst character in the history of cinema and thankfully his end came about quickly.

    Milwaukee’s own Red Letter Media. I am sure Bob and Brian can get them on for you.

    The Plinkett reviews for the other two prequels and the JJ Abrams Star Trek are all fantastic too. The direct website is redlettermedia.com. Even their reviews (Half in the Bag) that aren’t done by the Plinkett “character” are always good.

    I’m watching all 6 before seeing Ep. 7 next week. Going through this right after watching Ep. 1 was fortuitous timing on my part. A MUST WATCH! Funny, sarcastic, truthful…beautiful. Great recommendation, Czabe. Thanks.
