Name one word that describes “Han Solo.” Okay, now one word that describes “Queen Amidala.” Yeah, I thought so …

This 70 minute review [1] (link via Jason Kottke [2]) of “The Phantom Menace [3]” is incredible (even though the attempts at humor really fall flat and the reviewer's voice is severely annoying)—while I knew the movie was bad, I never knew it was that bad. I never knew that even George “I don't need no steeenking editors” Lucas knew “The Phantom Menace” was bad. Jeeze!
