I thought the work put into the reviews and breakdowns of each film per video showed a true passion for the franchise, which is respectable. Very thorough analyses of the prequels, while still being really funny. And the Revenge of Nadine was the cherry on top. RLM is run by people with actual filmmaking experience, and as a result, the quality/craft of those videos were far higher than anything on youtube at the time. The only other reviews of the prequels I though were comparable were from Confused Matthew.

Yeah, a pity Confused Matthew and some of the other discerning PT review videos became overlooked when RLM videos came to everyone’s attention. The CM videos especially - they were out and available a full year before RLM (back in the day of 10 minute maximum length youtube videos!)

They and a few other videos around that time can be found here (as well as the general hype for the Prequels etc)

Phil Tippett on the Special Editions: “They’re shit” + £2b for George to direct the Prequels
 

^ though unfortunately a number of other similar PT review videos are no longer available; either being taken down - or channels that no longer exist. There are also ~25 written reviews for each of the Prequel films from around the time of release in the above link.
