Ep. 23 The Phantom Menace

from Second Cut Hosted by The Film Magazine

The Phantom Menace was controversial upon its release. After years of build up, adult Star Wars fans felt let down, while younger audiences were raised on it as a vital work in the Skywalker Saga. Opinions have changed over the years, and Jacob and Sam look back on their experiences with it in addition to re-evaluating it through various critical lenses.
