Attack of the Clones Review... Plinket at it again!

It would seem that our man Plinket survived the police raid, but he is now in the slams unable to do any reviews. That is until something happened.

Mace: This party's over.
Plinket: No. This party's just started.

I know this one shouldn't be hard to do. While I was able to watch TPM without many grunts, AOTC sure had enough material to make me cringe and feel embarrassed being around others watching this crap.

I dare Lucas to tell Plinket it's just fiction. :lol
 
That's awesome!

I can't believe I'm excited about a preview for a critique of AOTC - my least favorite SW film.

This guy is fantastic.

Plinket is more entertaining than Lucas!!! :cry

There I said it and I feel.... clean. :$

His Star Trek stuff is spot on too, but the Episode One review was transcendant. :)

Can't wait for the AOTC-buster. I haven't been this excited since 1978! :D

Which is... really sad actually. :(

Bummer.

:cry

But the bitter truth we critics must face, is that in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so.

It's easy to tear down what is.

It's a shame he can't do something creative with all that "energy".

Movie maker wannabe. Doing all he can to soften the blow that he doesn't get to make "his" movies. Sad.
 
Seconded. Very creative. Seen his Trek 2009 review? The "short metaphorical film"? Genius.

This will be good, but AOTC is so freaking unwatchable that I bail out around the attempted assasination in Padme's quarters every time I try to give it a viewing. I've seen it the whole way through only once.

I'm not sure I'll be able to watch the critique - the cringe factor is going to be even higher than that of the movie itself, what with every single little awful element being relentlessly highlighted...
 
Yeah... they hire a bounty hunter, who hires a bounty hunter, who uses a droid to deposit centipedes to do the job for her... and then they use that clutch to create a clone army of... a lazy, head-banging out-sourcer! WTF!?

I like this guy's efforts... good practice for bigger stuff.
 
If you think that bounty hunter logic is flawed, you should hear the commentary track for the deleted scenes. They actually cut scenes out from the movie that feature Jango Fett in the same shot with Dooku because they didn't want Dooku to be revealed as the bad guy. Hmm.

1. Jango says his client is getting impatient in regards to the assassination of Padme. Nute Gunray tells Dooku that he is growing impatient that Padme is not dead yet, and Dooku gives him his word she will die. Ya, totally not the bad guy.
2. Dooku says to Obi-Wan in a very dark manner "It may be difficult to secure a release". NOT the bad guy.
3. Jango is seen landing on Geonosis, the HQ of Dooku. Not the bad guy.
4. Dooku is in league with Nute Gunray, the villain from Episode One. Totally not the bad guy.
5. Dooku tells the separatists that the Republic will agree to any demands they make and the Jedi will be overwhelmed. Getting a clue yet?

Oh, speaking of commentaries, anyone remember that Lucas said he would delve more on the prophacy regarding Anakin being the chosen one in episode II? In the end, all we get is "If the prophecy is true, your apprentice is the only one who can bring the Force back into balance". That's a lot more insightful. Maybe Episode III? "is he not to destroy the Sith and bring balance to the Force?" Oh, now the prophecy says he has to destroy the Sith in order to bring balance. Talk about a last minute change. If the prophecy dealt with the Sith being destroyed thus bringing balance to the Force, why didn't anyone put the two together when they confirmed that the Sith are back and they have this boy who could possibly be the chosen one?!

And the Attack of the Clones commentary? Lucas says we would find out who deleted Kamino from the Jedi files. Do we? No. It gets so much better in the episode III commentary when Lucas pretty much says "if you connect the dots, it all works out".
 
:lol thank god....id watch his review over again, but cant say the same about Phantom Menace...

looking forward to this

The most creative thing about it is how he dances around doing an actual analysis and convinces people that he has.

It's an amusing critique and roundup of all that's crappy and wrong about the prequels. Which is a lot.

Good enough for me. :thumbsup
