possibly coming later

Don’t watch this, see Star Wars II.I – Attack of the Phantom – (2001 movie) instead. Even at a lower quality it’s.. well it’s better I guess.

Make sure you have Star Wars – Episode III – Revenge of the Sith – (2005 movie) lined up to watch immediately after.

An assassination attempt on a senator gets her two superpowered-bodyguards, one of whom has the hots for her and whose investigation leads to a mystery that has remained shrouded for ten years.

While nowhere near as good as Star Wars Episode I.II – The Phantom Edit – (2000 movie) is compared to its source, Attack of the Phantom is an adequate watch and certainly head and shoulders above its source. Unfortunately this movie also requires Star Wars – Episode III – Revenge of the Sith – (2005 movie) be watched immediately afterwards, and since there was never a phantom edit made of that I don’t know if I can recommend this.

It’s flagged as disliked, but I don’t feel that I wasted my time watching it. I just feel let down by the ending.


The Adventures of Baron Munchausen - (1988 movie) poster

A crazy old man appears in a war-torn city to correct the misconceptions of the retelling of his adventures.

It’s a great fluff fantasy movie. I didn’t see it back in the day, so it has no nostalgia for me. Left with what it is at face value, I can’t recommend it except for people who like the old 80s style of kids’ practical effects fantasy movies. Think The Dark Crystal – (1982 movie) or The Neverending Story – (1984 movie).

A child, with a big imagination and interested in history, has a fanciful dream.

A wild ride of a movie that’s totally immersed in the 1980s style.

A man travels forward in time to discover the future of Christianity.

An adorably heavy-handed piece of Christian propaganda.

Something about a boy in the 70s wandering around and a girl from earlier who also wandered around because reasons and things happen but they’re not exciting so just give this a miss.

I don’t know what the fuck these people were thinking, but this is beyond confusing and awful.

A standard broken-family Disney movie, but with magical thinking.

God damn this is a low-effort piece of shit.

An asshole anchorman is sent to a little town to do a fluff story on Groundhog Day, but karma bites him in the ass when the town gets snowed-in.

A fantastic movie not just for the usual things, but for the execution of its idea. Unlike so many movies that have its elements, this one stays grounded and accessible. This movie is well-loved and highly recommended.

As part of a delaying tactic for an internal power struggle at the Central Intelligence Agency, an everyman is pointed out as a pawn to be followed as a delaying tactic.

A fantastic, classic, movie. It’s simple and with a light tone. I don’t think it’s particularly recommendable now, but I still like it.
