Did you enjoy the 70 minute review of Star Wars Episode I?
If so, the same channel (RedLetterMedia) now has a 90 minute review of Episode II. Part 1 is up now and the rest will probably be uploaded shortly.

Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones is the worst thing ever made by a human...except for the bagpipes

There's a funny Joe Lieberman reference.

2. Probably the only hour-long reviews I'd ever watch.
Dude is hilarious and makes excellent points. I never thought I'd sit through a movie review that was nearly as long as the movie itself, but I watched every second of the Phantom Menace review, and will probably do the same with this.

4. All right, you all have talked me into it
I can't imagine sitting through a 70+-minute movie review, but everything I've heard about this guy is great.

5. do episode 1 reviews first
it's genius, and some of the stuff he does in Ep 2 references it.

6. All right, I just finished the Episode 1 review. It was, indeed, brilliant.
If George Lucas ever gets a traffic ticket or a DUI or anything, the judge should force him to watch this guy's review in lieu of a fine.

Hell, EVERYONE in Hollywood who makes "blockbusters" should be forced to watch it. It really does cut to the heart of what is wrong with most of the big special-effects extravaganzas these days.

Now on to the Ep 2 review.

7. Has he dispensed with the serial murderer 'humor'?
Except for that jarring (and overdone) element, the first review did have a lot of funny parts to it.

8. Agreed. The basement scene with the bound woman was potentially triggering for those with issues,
as well. Which is too bad, because I thought he was hilarious otherwise.

9. Yeah, I agree. He way overworked that.
I don't think it's quite as funny as he thinks it is. And even if it WAS ever funny, that's pretty much a one-shot joke.

But other than that, the review was laugh-out-loud hilarious and on target. I'm halfway through the Episode 2 review now. Not as funny as the first, but still well worth watching.
