Topic: Hylarious, brilliant, 70 min. video review of ep I and 90 min. for II

Well, first of all, Hey.
I'm new to these forums, I mostly signed up here to apply and see how it'd turn out. I hope to stay around for a while.

Well, then, on towards the point of this:
A while ago, someone from another forum has pointed me towards these video reviews. The guy who did these did a really good job of pointing out a lot of flaws that all go beyond the "I hate Jar Jar" review of some. And, seeing that this is also a Star Wars forum, I couldn't help but link to these reviews as well:

Be warned that there may be some gorey-like moments in the reviews (since the author couldn't help but make some jokes about the person who'd produce 160 minutes of video critique) but most persons above the age of 15 should be able to watch this. I think a lot of people will enjoy these films.

Try not to stop immediately after seeing the first few minutes of these, believe me, they're worth it.

LAST WARNING: There is bad language in this

They're pretty funny and quite insightful when you get a bit further in. I've watched most of the ones on Episode I, some good points made, well worth the watch.

Still there is more to love in the movie than the guy makes out. If you really start thinking too hard about most fantasy films you'll find you'll probably be able to poke many holes in it.

These days I just take the prequel films as fun eyecandy that has enriched at least the scope and scale of Star Wars, and given us a bigger sandpit to play in, and switch my brain off for the parts that make me cringe. The sad thing is there are so many good and interesting things going on in there that you can imagine if handled slightly differently it would have made them every bit the unbelievably amazing films we all expected them to be.

Happened to watch this like a week ago and was thinking of linking it here but forgot. That's some hilarious stuff. That reminds me I should continue watching the second one.

Just watched a few from the Episode II review, the romance bit was always going to get a pasting, but he is just so spot on in so many places, not to mention bleedin' hilarious.

Genius!

lol lol lol

One of my favourite jokes in the epII review was the joke with Darth Maul he worked towards by observing the diversity through the Star Wars movies.
