Rewatching The Phantom Menace

All the while I was awaiting the DVD release of the "Vintage Editions" of Star Wars, I was thinking beyond it, contemplating using it as the warmup to watching all the Star Wars movies once again in "episodic" order. Perhaps part of this was a reaction to ambiguous thoughts of certain people gloating about at last having the "real" versions of the "real" Star Wars movies, but it wasn't all of it. Starting a six-weekend cycle (which matches how much longer I'll be taking care of some of my parents' cats while they're away on a long cruise), I watched The Phantom Menace.
