It's time to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of STAR WARS EPISODE I: THE PHANTOM MENACE! This video essay takes you back to the 90's when George Lucas introduced us to the beginning of his grand saga.

We start at Lucas's vision behind the movie, the groundbreaking technological advancements, and the detailed pre-production process. I dive into the hype, the release, the reception, and the lasting legacy. I also take an important look at Ahmed Best and the unjust treatment he received for his part in the movie.

Let's get into the iconic characters and memorable scenes that have left a lasting imprint on the Star Wars universe, its fans, and all of pop culture.
