Cultural Appropriation and CGI: Rewatching ‘The Phantom Menace’
In this episode, Heather Woodward hosts a live watch-through of 'Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace' with Sarah Woodward, Lily Ku, and Michele Woodward. The group, none of whom have seen 'Star Wars' in chronological order, provide an eclectic mix of commentary capturing first impressions, plot confusion, and critiques. They explore the movie's heavy use of CGI, cultural influences, and missteps in storytelling. Their shared bewilderment and occasional humor question both the cultural underpinnings of the Star Wars universe and the credentials of key creative forces like George Lucas, all while enjoying Natalie Portman’s iconic costumes and reminiscing about 1999 CGI effects.
