I'd go on a rant about why Phantom Menace (and all three of the prequels) are fundamentally broken as movies and especially as tie-ins to the original Trilogy, but the Red Letter Media guys already did it so much better than I ever could.

Granted, each of those videos is at the very least 45 minutes long and deconstructs pretty much every frame and line of dialogue in each movie, so I'd only recommend watching those reviews if you're planning on making an evening of it.

Really?

Some of the most brilliant comedy work on the internet right now is coming from those guys.

Well, duh.
