Mr. Plinkett's reviews are epic. I love how he breaks down exactly what is wrong with the prequels. His last review of "Revenge of the Sith" pinpoints Lucas's failure as a director (e.g., his overreliance upon CGI and creating sterile environments).

MemberOk, how did this devolve into talking about Plinkett?
But yes, he is brilliant. I enjoyed his reviews of the Star Wars prequels far more than I enjoyed (tolerated?) the actual movies.
Did you watch his review of Star Trek, the Reboot? Spot on as usual, but I loved the middle bit where he attacked the entire idea of 'rebooting' an old story. It was almost prescient about how miserable Tron ended up.

ModeratorI just watched his Star Trek (reboot) review, having just been introduced via AICN a few weeks ago and at your suggestion.
Awesome. Sums up my feelings pretty much exactly: Loved the movie; wasn't a Star Trek movie.
Now I go down the rabbit hole and see the other Plinkett reviews.
