Remember that guy who did the 70-minute review of Star Wars Episode I and 18-minute review of Avatar? You probably do, but I thought I’d remind you in case you’ve been blacking out a lot feeling forgetful lately like me. They should make whiskey infused with Ginko. Anyway, guy’s name is Mike Stoklasa and his movie review character, Mr. Plinkett, is back with a 90-minute review of Episode II. It’s pretty funny as always (I could do without the I’m-playing-a-glib-character shtick, but whatever) and people are going to be talking about it, so you might as well watch it. You don’t want to be that hasn’t-watched-a-90-minute-review-of-Episode-II asshole at the office. Okay, okay, here’s a couple things that happen in the review, in case you’re like me and anything that takes longer than 5 minutes feels like having homework:
- “It just comes off as some kind of assembly line production, devoid of any emotional involvement by anyone. Most movies come from kind of creative spark somewhere. With the Star Wars prequels, I’m just not sure why they were even made.”
- Luke and Han grow and change like real people. Episode II expects us to buy Anakin and Obi-wan as friends because of a 60-second elevator ride in which they reminisce about past adventures we never get to see.
- No fish-out-of-water character they have to explain things to, so the audience never really knows what the f*ck’s going on.
- “Basically the exact same plot as the first one, and nothing makes sense.”
- “We can’t relate to their weird, sterile, sexless universe.”
- “Eventually we are forced to endure the most bizarre, loveless, awkward, and forced romance in cinematic history.”
- “As sigmund Freud said, sometimes a cigar is just a giant vagina in the desert that swallows men whole.”
- “I think this discovery of a clone army is a little more important than who’s trying to kill stupid Padme.”
- (of the city sequence) “I could spend 10 hours just talking about how incredibly dumb this sequence is.”
- “This assassination attempt leads us to the completely and utterly implausible and stupid plot of the movie. That Anakin needs to take Padme to her home world to protect her. For one thing, Obi wan knows taht Anakin’s kind of crazy in love with her, so you’d think they’d send her with the guy that looks like a squid.”
- “You see when you say something right, a woman smiles. It tickles her brain, which in turn sends blood flowing down to her sex hole.”
- “It’s a colorful mish mosh of stuff that happens that bridges the gap between Episode I and III. However, Lucas lifts a lot of the iconic elements and imagery from Empire strikes back and shoves it into this film wherever he can. This is just to form some kind of connection with the franchise’s best film.”
I realize my Cliff’s Notes is starting to approach the length of the original. Anyway, you get the point; funny and insightful. Bottom line, I’d rather watch this 90 minutes than the 90-minutes of the actual movie. Maybe one day, I can do a 180-minute review of this guy’s 90-minute review, and then those nerd pussies at Pajiba could do a 360-minute review of my 180-minute review, and then Perez Hilton can use his flipper to draw a cock on my face in MS Paint and we can all get stoned and watch Jersey Shore.

90 minutes watching a review of Ep II? I’d like back the 90 seconds it took me to read this post.
“Eventually we are forced to endure the most bizarre, loveless, awkward, and forced romance”
Sounds like that one time with my cousin and her German Shepard.
Fuck this, I’m watching Goonies.
The real problem with Padme and Anakin’s romance was that they didn’t show any of the freaky shit a Jedi can do in bed!
Give me five minutes to put in a scene where Padme is doing anal reverse cowgirl while Anakin uses the Force to bang her with a vibrating french tickler, fuck himself up the ass with a gigantic rubber arm, strangle himself a little (ooohhh…THAT’S how they learned to do it!), and feed strawberries and whip cream to Padme all at the same time. Throw in a robot handy for Jar Jar, and we are talking some freaky shit!
Between eating cats and wiping his ass with our money, you’d think Geroge Lucsa could work in a contraction or two into his scripts.
For fuck’s sake, it’s like he thought Brent Spiner’s work on Next Generation was ground breaking when in reality it was on par with Saturday Night Live performers.
He made me hungry for Carvel ice cream.
Yea it’s a long ass review but all the points he makes about how bad these are compared to the originals is pretty spot on.
A 90 minute mouth fart would have sufficed.
The romantic dialogue in this movie is so awkward that I get the urge to skip it even when watching this review.
*left eyebrow twitches*
J..j..j..J, He knows you aren’t talking that forshak about Data…a-guh, a-guh…
Not at all Fek. Data would have been a bastard of a character to play. I know better than to fuck TNG.
So, I’ve watched about half of this and I must say I “LOL’d” like 6 times already in my office. My boss came in to ask me if I had a “case of the giggles” today.
“So, I’ve watched about half of this and I must say I “LOL’d” like 6 times already in my office. My boss came in to ask me if I had a “case of the giggles” today.”
And I cockpunched him and reported the incident to HR.
Jeezus, I can’t believe I actually started reading this post…yawn, who gives a rats ass about Star Wars anymore? I haven’t seen a SW episode since the second one…way too lame. I started feeling like a loser after listening to this guy for 2 minutes. If you’re over 16 and you’re still watching this adolescent crap: go outside and look around.
