• My favorite section was part 5. The constant red X's on the screen was hilarious.

• It is not as good as the first one. It seems sometimes, not counting the romance of Anakin and Padme - an easy target -, he is actively looking for something to criticize, no matter how small it is (Samuel L. Jackson really needed almost 10 minutes?). An again concentrating in plot holes (something the OT also had a lot). As for the references, the OT also had a lot concerning classic films (and the PT also have). It seems to me the references in the ATOC about the classic trilogy are plot-wise elements. Like Obi-Wan's trick with the Fetts. Boba and Jango were the victims of it once, so Boba found out in ESB the trick Han was pulling. I think ROTS is going to be the worst of all three reviews. I already can foreseen he will be concentrating on small things like this one. His reviews are funny and I laugh a lot. But I don't take them seriously. I still like the films and they didn't change my opinion of it. If you think about it, he can do the same thing with the OT.

• He's reviews are great, original, and thorough. Yeah the first part was removed, but if you search for it on YouTube you can find it, title is a little different but it's there.

• Yoda sighing and shaking his head at the prequels was the one thing the internet needed to be perfect. Thank you Mr. Plinkett.

• You might be.

• Actually, when you stop to think about it, there's really not much point to the second part of that plan since I'm just gonna set it on fire anyway. Scratch the syphilitic bum part, but keep the stabbing in the face/setting on fire parts. Yeah. I may be overthinking this.

• Y'know, I'm sure it's hilarious and brilliant and scathing and maybe even <i>poignant</i>, but I'll be goddamned if I can get past this guys' insanely irritating drone of a voice. My god, if his voice somehow took on physical form I would stab it in the face, find some syphilitic bum to fuck the stab wound, and then set it on fire. I hate it that much.

• And that boys and girls shows exactly what Cartoon Network thinks of you. They "pretend" to be hip and internet savvy - but aren't in the slightest. So much for that channel's offerings and programs. There's plenty more crap where that came from. Toodles CN. Oh look - South Park studios - you get the internet don't you? Yes - yes you do.

• Apparently he uses footage from the Clone Wars cartoon that's owned by Cartoon Network. Considering he's reviewing the movies and not the cartoon, and reviews have different laws with regards to copyrights, they were able to block the video under copyright laws. At least that's my best guess.

• that doesnt work cos he uses youtube vids on that site as well, which is blocked too. its only the first one tho, the rest are fine. also, what the hell does cartoon network have to do with the star wars movies

• Just go to redlettermedia.com to watch every part.

• Anyone knowing when the first part will be up again?

• WTF??? Part 1 of the review removed due to 'copyright violation'??? Have they heard of fair use?

• At the very end it was great. George going on about how he can do "anything" in this cool CG world, while Empire Yoda sighs pathetically. That was pure comedy gold.

• BUT "TO BE ANGRY IS TO BE HUMAN!" oh wait. When he kills human children she says "You're going down a path I can't follow." FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

• Part 6---"Why Is Samuel L. Jackson In Star Wars Movies" is the best segment. Absolutely dead-on accurate.

• Maybe when George relinquishes control over the franchise, some plucky young director might consider a... re-boot?

• I haven't watched this one yet (will tnite probably) but his Avatar one was excellent. I hope he finds some way to monetize these because he's entertaining in movie reviews / critiques as Zero Punctuation is for video-games.

• "Enough with the fucking lightsabers!" I couldn't have said it better myself. This guy is awesome and should definitely be getting paid.

• After slaughtering the Sandpeople Lucas had a perfect set up for their relationship. Common sense tells you that when you're desperately trying to hook up with a hot senator you DON'T confess to murdering women and children. Anakin should have lied to Padme, she marries him without knowing what he's done, she find out the truth in ROTS, and leaves him. He chases her down and force chokes her to the point of near death. She barely manages to live long enough to deliver the twins and dies as a result of his force choke, NOT a broken heart. It was so obvious a child could have written it. Or a depraved serial killer/film critic. It's sad how easily he tears the prequels apart. I'm looking forward to checking out the Next Gen reviews. I didn't even know he'd gone after those films.

• The man makes brilliant insight into the films.. i celebrated with some pizza rolls..

• Yes, sort of like black Alabamans in the '50s. Amidala's a horrible person.

• NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I could tell when Spielberg was directing cause the movie would gain some traction and actually make me care for about 15 minute bursts, then Lucas would come back in and take a giant amoebic dysentery splatter-dumb over everything rq to get it back to normal. Having watched the ep 1 review like 3 times at least, and most of the Star Trek ones two or three times as well, I might be a little burned out on this one. Wasn't lol'ing as much. Just nodding.

• Yeah, it's one of those things you don't think about when watching, but when you examine it again, you realize he has a point. Like the point he made in the Phantom Menace review, it's never about the fight itself, but what they're fighting about that's important.

• Really, really good. His breakdown of the overuse of lightsabers is particularly good.

• I saw this last night while I was working on some homework. The Yoda narration at the end was particularly devastating as I was thinking of "Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter" as I got started watching this. And, style and creepiness of the other sequences aside, I've seen few internet reviewers who use editing as well as Plinkett to really highlight his point. Looking forward to Ep 3, the only one of the prequels I've seen more than twice and I can personally think of a lot of material for that one.

• Sand people are considered kind of like rodents in Star Wars, aren't they? Like Jawas. They don't really matter. I think?

• He does highlight a very good point. Why the hell does Amidala marry Anakin? I mean she was told by Anakin himself that he's murdered women, children and any other innocent bystander in his way. This either means that a) Padme fears for her own life so much (y'know she may be murdered by Anakin just because is pissed) that she is willing to be coerced into anything Or b) she's a massive racist who thinks that sand people don't matter as sentient beings.

• I love these things. Also be sure to check out his savaging of the TNG movies, especially Nemesis.

• Huzzah! Maybe now we'll finally learn what's wrong with your face!

• I'm torn as to whether to bother watching this one. I found that the Phantom Menace review made good arguments, but the style of humour was jarringly unfunny, and the narrators voice irritating. Hmm. Good ideas, poor execution. Not unlike the Star Wars prequels...

• First time I've seen one of Plinkett's reviews, and I could only watch the 10-minute clip (which took me over 45 minutes) because I'm at work. Hilarious! I'll have to clear my schedule a bit to watch the rest. Though, I will say, he's not really saying anything new. Most of us can, and have, pointed out all these things. Still, he's funny, and that's what matters.

• Yesterday I watched this rather then do some work that I HAD to get done. It was worth it.

• I love the relationship that develops between Plinkett and his 'victim' through Cloverfield-style snippets of the video he's taping over. Suffice to say it ends badly, but the ultimate irony is it's a more convincing portrayal of a relationship than the one the movie itself tries to show. My one question is how did Plinkett get out of jail? But really, this guy needs to get paid for what he does. Not only are his reviews incredibly accurate breakdowns of what makes a good movie and what makes people want to see movies, but they are also hilarious and original, and the review generally ends up being more enjoyable than the movie it's about. Can't wait for Revenge of the Sith!

• So fun to watch. He went a little TOO much into his psychotic breakdown, but just as educational as the last one. And unlike Phantom Menace, which I manage to get a small amount of enjoyment out of when I first saw it, Attack of the Clones always plagued me with problems from the first viewing. Glad to see it's getting it's due. Can't wait to see how Revenge of the Sith works out, and hope he goes after some non-Star Wars films soon (have seen his Next Generation film reviews...great stuff).
