I was impressed by how accurately Weird Al told the story of "The
Phantom Menace", and how much he covered in a song only a few minutes
long. He does a pretty nice job, I think.

A few posts back I mentioned the fan film Duality. Once you watch that watch
Two-Ness. They are both available on www.theforce.net

The superior pleasure of listening to this song over actually watching
the movie is immeasurable.

Now, that's going a bit too far. It's a nice song, but not at all a bad
movie.

Okay, "Weird Al" would get a passing grade in his Filking 101
class. He told the story in the song. That's it. Frankly, I had a
hard time figureing out who the point of view singer is; Ben does not
know of Anakin's future at this point. Only us fen and George Lucas
know that.

I may be a seriously geeky SF fan, but even I'm not worried that
the singer of the song (clearly young Kenobi) is referring to
things that won't happen until later movies. It's just a funny
song, not a dramatic novel...

resp:47 - not a bad movie? Indeed not: that's far too mild. It's one
of the two or three very worst films I've ever watched all the way
through, ghod knows why I bothered.
