70+ minute VIDEO reviews of Blockbuster epic films... best displayed in his BURNINATING of the Star Wars prequels!
as an example of the reviewer's unique and hilarious-cuz-it's-true style, check out his commentary on Light Saber over-use, and physics problems, esp. in Episode Two:

Yes, he nailed it about why we feel such insta-sympathy for the Naive (oops, I mean Navi) but unfortunately it's only 20 minutes of brilliant and wise lulz.
The Episode Two review is 90 minutes of omgicantstopwatchingthisworkofgenius (I started watching at 12:10am last night -- can you say OOPS?)
I started to watch the Episode 1 vid but they aren't numbered on YouTube and I gave up haha
Brilliantly done though: Explain Qui-Gon Jinn's character LOL classic
in 2009 interview Sir Alec Guinness totally dissed Lucas' amazingly bad writing skills:
"I just couldn't go on speaking those bloody awful, banal lines. I'd had enough of the mumbo jumbo..."

Y'know, on one hand I can sympathize with him; of all the amazing films he's been in, the biggest one is basically 5 episodes of
Rocky Jones: Space Ranger but with laser swords and muppets but on the OTHER hand he's the only thing that anchored the first
Star Wars, the special effects were good but Alec Guinness made me believe it.
Of all the things that have sort of "died" for me,
Star Wars was like, the only thing I never would have guessed I wouldn't like by the time I was 30.
