I was just kidding on that title. But I did just read a really fantastic dissertation on "Star Wars-Episode I: The Phantom Menace." I am really impressed with how well the author wrote the essay and that he was able to find so much good in a movie that so many people found so much bad in.

To read the article, go to this site: http://www.lardbiscuit.com/lard/ilovetpm.html
It's best to read in chronological order by Roman Numerals, but it's structured in such a way that it's not hard to skip around.

I obviously do not think that Episode I is one of the best movies ever made. But I do think that it's just as good as any of the other Star Wars movies. Even before reading this article I have alway felt that Episode I was in many ways the best Star Wars movie. After one of my finals a few weeks ago, I found myself watching Episode I at my apartment. As I watched I had this feeling that I hadn't had in a long time. I had this feeling that Ep. I was INDEED a very terrific movie and that it set up the entire saga perfectly. But it's to the point now that I really don't have a favorite Star Wars movie. When it's all said and done, I think that each movie is going to bring something fantastic to the overall Star Wars picture. Needless to say, I don't divide the two trilogies into separate parts anymore. I think that they are fitting together very nicely.

And yes, I really can't wait until Ep. III comes out. I think it's going to blow a lot of people's socks off.
