Star Wars: Episode I: The Phantom Menace
Why did I watch this today? I don’t know, honestly. Maybe I hoped that it wouldn’t be as bad as I remembered, maybe I was bored and grabbed it without thinking, I don’t know. Somehow even worse than I remembered. As I wrote in my long chain of tweets while watching, this movie has no connective tissue, everything just… happens. This is the cinematic equivilant of buying a bag of chips that turns out to be mostly air.
And then two putrid, poison chips. Those are the “Jar Jar” and “Lil Orphan Ani” chips.
