Ep. 3 – Star Wars: The Phantom Menace
A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away...
This week on Anime & Pop Culture Reloaded, we're revisiting one of the most debated films in the entire Star Wars saga: Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace.
Was it unfairly judged? Has time been kinder to it? Or does it still deserve the criticism it received when it first launched?
