[00:00:00]Oh, it's finally here. I've waited almost 20 years for a new Star Wars movie and we finally got one and it's a prequel. What a concept. all this political drama? This is confusing. I don't want politics. I want TO SEE JEDI JEDI JEDI KNIGHTS JEDI THERE THEY ARE THE JEDI.

[00:00:16]HELL YEAH, THAT'S R2-D2. THAT WAS THE most predictable reveal ever but I called it. I cannot believe these special effects. CGI has come so far.

[00:00:24]Oh, Jar Jar is still there. Why are they keeping him around? I'M GETTING SIGNAL OH MY GOD, GIANT FISH MONSTER. OH MY GOD, A BIGGER GIANT fish monster. A C-3PO is naked. Oh, I love it. Anakin's building him and that makes absolutely zero sense but I do not care cuz I am having a blast. Midi-chlorians?

[00:00:47]>> [laughter] >> The alien goat farted on Jar Jar. This is the funniest Star Wars movie I've ever seen. Annie Annie Annie Anakin Skywalker meets Obi-Wan.

[00:00:59]What a beautiful scene. Wow, I'm not even thinking about the brutal murder that's going to happen years from now.

[00:01:03]Who in the insane clown posse meets the crow is this Darth Maul guy? He's no match for two Jedi. No way. Not impressed. Wow, Yoda looks so young.

[00:01:14]Midi-chlorians?

[00:01:17]Battle droids versus Gungans. It's comic relief versus other comic relief. This is going to be the funniest battle ever.

[00:01:25]Oh great, it's Darth Juggalo again. When are they going to fight Palpatine? I don't WANT TO SEE WHAT? [screaming] WHAT?

[00:01:39]WOW, GREAT SPINNING ANNIE. That is a good trick. Oh, Darth Maul is the greatest villain since Vader. I'm not even mad that he killed Qui-Gon. Of course he did. What?

[00:01:49]No, no, no. This is not acceptable. I'm going to complain until they bring him back to life and give him his own series. This ending is perfect. [music] It's exactly the same as episode 4, and I have a feeling this film will be just as beloved as that one was. Bravo, George Lucas.
