Star Wars: The Phantom Menace (1999) - - Desert of the Reel #2.1
Season 3
Episode 1
Published 1 year, 5 months ago
Description
Welcome to the second season of Desert of the Reel! For the next few months, Ryan is forcing Jason to experience the Star Wars theatrical releases, many of them for the first time. In this episode, we ponder how The Phantom Menace could have been made with its racist stereotypes, lack of acting, wooden dialogue, and the fact that a quarter of the movie is about podracing, which has nothing to do with anything else in the movie or in the series as a whole. On the plus side, John Williams and impressive visuals. As an added bonus, this episode includes a lengthy tirade about bureaucracy.
