This was part of Kottke's best links of 2009 (which is worth a few hours of your time as well).
Part one (below) is an absolutely hilarious, incisive analysis of where Episode I went wrong and why it couldn't live up to the standard set by the original Star Wars movies. The rest of the review gets a little sidetracked with some ill-advised attempts at dark comedy and doesn't sustain the humor, but watch it for the meticulous critique of every nonsensical bit of the Phantom Menace's storyline (or lack thereof). It really picks up again in part 6 around 5:57.
Part 2 / Part 3 / Part 4 / Part 5 / Part 6 / Part 7
