Twenty years ago our heads exploded in anticipation of a new Star Wars film after more than a decade of waiting. Star Wars Episode One: The Phantom Menace was released in 1999 and we haven't looked back since. Ok, we have looked back since. Jar Jar, Trade Federation and Embargoes plus Darth Maul, Obi Wan and Qui Gon Jinn, so it ain't all that bad. Let's celebrate 20 years of Phantom Menace.
Plus, we also dive in to voice actor Tom Kane's comments at Star Wars Celebration Chicago. Do you agree or disagree with his opinions? It's a trap!
Thanks to Dan for contributing his Episode I memories as well as new follower Imperial Entanglements. And as always sound designer extraordinaire, Kane Richard Blust for helping me create those cool little jingle intros. You bombads, my brother!!!
