The prequels are a good versus evil story, where evil wins through deception. In some ways it was a deconstruction of the original, but ultimately the Jedi were still fighting for right, and the seperatists were bad guys.

I respectfully disagree. I'll grant that, as things presently stand, the separatists come across as bad guys. But the Republic & the Jedi come across, IMO, as corrupt and ineffective at best, despotic and morally compromised at worst. That's one of the big problems I have with the PT: there's no one to root for! Every single character is in some way repugnant and unsupportable.

Are you telling me that in all his reviews he cracks jokes about killing women?

I know! How annoying! Don't you just hate it when people get hung up on peripheral issues and absolutely refuse to let matters go? Geez!

You make it sound like you know this guy personally and that your certainty of his guilt is based on some kind of inside knowledge.

Haven't you heard? VaderIsNotHayden's insights are clearly right all the time, no matter what.

I've heard a lot of good about this TPM review and I'm looking forward to watching it in the next few days.  I did sample it a bit after burning it, and I'm not sure I can take the dude's voice for 70 minutes.  But we'll see.

Don't forget that the youtube segments are about ten minutes each, so you can easily watch the review by segment rather than all in one sitting. :)

Personally, I'd planned to do that, but found it so entertaining that seventy minutes blew by before I knew it, and I'd done watched the entire thing.

Expanded universes are an idea that exists outside Star wars. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expanded_universe We can thus acknowledge the existence of a Star wars eu without having to follow Lucasfilm's definition of it.

And you go by wikipedia's definition of eu? How follow-the-herd.
