Episode 1: The Fandom Menace (Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace)

This week, we dive into our first film, in a galaxy, far, far away...STAR WARS! To be more precise, Episode 1: The Phantom Menace. We talk about the innovative digital technology that was used the film, the toxic aspects of the Star Wars fandom that arose with the release of this film, and the legacy of the film almost 21 years since its release. This is a big episode (clocking in nearly as long as the film itself), so tune up your podracers, check your midichlorian levels, and join us as we discuss The Phantom Menace. Next week: we talk about M. Night Shyamalan's blockbuster, The Sixth Sense.  Follow The Podcast: Twitter: @The1999Podcast Instagram: @the_1999_podcast Follow Jared Stossel Twitter: @JaredShameless Instagram:  @heymynameisjared Follow Andrew Tucker Twitter: @TUCKmeinatnight Instagram: @craftdrew
