This is awesome.

Truly great film criticism makes one think beyond the picture itself to how a good movie is actually put together. When someone recommended this 70 minute youtube review of 'The Phantom Menace' I thought they were crazy, but I actually learned a lot about the craft of moviemaking from parts of it and really enjoyed the rest.

  1. I thought it was great until the end, when I learned that he, too, could see the pizza roll. She told me I was the only one, but she betrayed me. Now I must eat her. I must eat all of them! Excuse me...

  3. I deeply regret that I allowed more than two full weeks to pass between when you brought this video to our attention and when I actually sat unmoving at my desk for 70 minutes. All I can say is, thank you.

Because of a recent ton of spam and weird insulting comments from a brand-new poster, I'm putting in comment moderation for a bit. I'm planning to do comment moderation "Ms. Kitty Style," as in, with a very light touch and kicking only off-topic and unreasonably insulting posts.
