If you haven't heard of it, there is an epic review on Youtube of Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace that lasts half as long as the movie (70 minutes) its detailed, poignant and absolutely hilarious. The same guy (or crew) has just released a similar review of Avatar. Its only 20 minutes long, and not quite as good as the Episode 1 review, mainly because Avatar is far-far better than The Phantom Menace, but is still thoroughly overrated. The reviewer from Red Letter Media (follow the link for the Phantom Menace Reviews) takes Avatar to task and verbalizes all of the feelings I had about Avatar, for its simplicity, convenience and lack of originality. His work is highly recommended, its hilarious and surprisingly well done. In fact, it seems like there was far more thought put into these two reviews, than into these two movies. (and actually it looks like there was more work put into these two than The Phantom Menace).

Sorry to be blunt, but these YouTube vids are stupid.
You have a movie blog...very cool. So, tell us what YOU think of Avatar or any other movies.
We'll follow you...but not that dork that you linked to.
