- Опубліковано 1 бер 2019
- For our very first movie review we chose one of the greatest films of all time: Star Wars. I'm so glad my boyfriend introduced me to the original trilogy and wanted to share my enthusiasm with UA-cam. We hope you like it! Next week we are back to gaming with a Horizon: Zero Dawn review. #starwars

“And then my boyfriend fell into my life”
“Hello there” 😂😂
Don't mind me, just dropping in.
@@Obi-Wan_Kenobi general Kenobi... You are a bold one.
You know she's a fan when she knows the memes!
General Boyfriendi
Fr😂😂
"Oh, star wars isnt bad, the prequels are bad."
"It's treason then."
And then i pressed the like button. Great use of clips from the movies.
Kent Raquet
That was utterly hilarious 😂
Jarmoparmo L. Yep! My favorite parts of the prequels is the end battle of attack of the clones and revenge of the sith.... oh how could I miss duel of fates?? Also the clone wars redeems the prequels
My favourite part of the prequels is the prequels
@@ertyuzxz605 The overall plot and lore behind it are really fascinating. I think some parts were just executed poorly
@Jarmoparmo L. you know the way
So the best ever Star Wars review comes from someone who's only seen it once as an adult....
Damn straight
She's good this chick
Made me feel like I felt when I first saw it
Have you watched Film Crit Hulk?
Technically Matt wrote the script tho 🤔
"Its not bad, the Prequels are bad"
"Its treason then"
I spat my drink out that was hilarious
I subscribed right at that point.
It's ironic seeing how people are appreciating the prequels more.
Ironic
Well there’s a reason all the memes are from RotS (aka the good but obviously still kinda bad one).
The Jurassic Avenger because of Obi Wan
When you realize that boyfriend pretty much hit the jackpot
So true
How do you figure? Most girls I've date already watched star wars or were a fan. Having to teach your GF everything is actually not the jackpot, it's more like not having things in common. My partner now is a big fan but aren't most people? I can't imagine having to make someone watch it. What are you saying is the jackpot? That she ending up liking it?
Orlando S. Gondar Exploring your partner’s seperate interests is always better than just liking all the same things
@@themiddlechild8952 I don't disagree with you. I'm a filmmaker she's a musician we learn alot from each other. I just meant it's nice to have some nerdy things like sw and other stuff in common without having to show them everything. It's not the same. I do agree with you on other passions and what we do.
Acean HUN not at all. I’ve had 5 girlfriends that have watched Star Wars with me. A lot of girls like it.

"...and John Williams is like, 'Have you ever heard the sound of despair, a call from the void to do something great and a glimmer of hope all at once? 'cause here it is!'"
1. This is the best line in any review of anything I've ever read
2. This is a remarkably good description of that segment of the music
This review is great. Thank you for reminding me how good this film was/is.
my thoughts exactly
It even becomes profound when you remember that Binary Sunset has become synonymous with the Force and think what the Force is
Binary Sunset is so beautiful and full of emotion and I cry whenever I hear it. It reminds me of childhood, innocence, adventure, Star Wars, and my father. Thank you John Williams.
It's a fantastic line but I am partial to "Obi Wan goes UUUUHUHUUHUHUUUUU" that shelby says a few seconds after.
It brought a tear to my eye
When she insulted the prequels
“It’s treason then”
But then she quoted the show
“Ironic”
Revenge of The Sith is my favorite tv show.
I am also confused. Do I dislike her dissing the prequels? Do I like her making a prequel meme? I don't know, both?
@@pvt.dicksimmons2225 you like her dissing the prequels
@Sebastian Hackembruch she puts in alot of her own humor at well.
“The sound of despair, the call from the void to do something great and a glimmer of hope”
😳I never heard it put that way before😭
1:24
Hold on, I'm your boyfriend?!!
Who wouldn't wanna date Obi-Wan tbh
Hello there ;)
6:00 General Kenobi
Didn't you also say "Just me, the boy, the two droids and no questions asked."?
We all know what you're into.
Yeah guess you can can be popular with the ladies too.
To be honest, you've proven that you can review anything and it'll be good so do whatever you want and we will enjoy. :)
Yes, next up: Toy reviews! ...no, not that kind of toys. We need to dethrone Ryan.
👏🏻 👏🏻 toilet paper review
gamer girl powers
If what you've told me is true, she has earned my trust.
@@Max-jf5vu the boyfriend writes the reviews
"I Propose if Disney made a star wars movie focusing on using the techniques used in the original trilogy it would look more like the galaxy everyone knows and loves"
The mandalorian- Does this
The Mandalorian: Is good.
This is the Way.
Eh not really. The Mandalorian uses a lot of entirely new technology created just for the show which is what Star Wars and Lucasfilm is known for. it uses SOME technology from the OT era but enhances it with new tech.
The Force Awakens: Did it.
The Last Jedi: Did it.
The Rise of Skywalker: Did it.
Solo: Did it.
Rogue One: Did it.
Your point?
@@kungolaf4499 CGI?
@@kungolaf4499 what?
Yeah. It's great...
After hearing Williams’ theme of Luke looking off top the sunset over a thousand times, it still sends chills down my spine. A true masterpiece.
Best quote: "And John Williams is like: 'Have you ever heard the sound of despair, a call from the void to do something great, and a glimmer of hope all at once? 'Cause HERE IT IS!' " :)
I watched this about 15 times now STILL gives me goosebumps.
That was brillant.
@@alexandermarquardt597 yes.. Goosebumps! Amazing
Goddammit just reading that quote brought the music back
Was never able to describe the emotions I got from the crescendo of the binary sunset, but she perfectly described it for me. :)
"She was his daughter but she didn't know that yet, and I'm pretty sure neither did Lucas."
Hahahahaha, so true, hahahaha
From what I've heard from an interview, lucas wrote the entire original trilogy and planned to make it into a giant movie. However, he noticed that it was going to be too long( which is why the vader father twist was so good, he had it planned). So he probably planned for them to be blood related, why he made them kiss i have no idea. Maybe he had a thing for it? Lol
Vater is German for father, so no, it's clearly planned. Lucas quickly became a hack, though, to be fair.
@Joseph Douek I guess that's fair, but Luke and Leia being siblings is probably not the original intention
@@craydussy so true and he also made episodes IV, V, AND VI first because he didnt have the technology to make episodes I, II, and III first.. he also had episodes VII IIX AND IX written but i think disney said HAHA f*** you Lucas making a new hope re-imagined and calling it VII and no one will ever notice!! but well make more then you because well were disney.. and we just bought star wars.. and people are going to watch it regardless of if they notice or not..
@@dallasunderfire9970 Who writs VIII like IIX?
"mocking Vader for that time he said, 'I'll try spinning, that's a good trick'" XD so true!
5:18 did she just disliked the most overpowered character in the SW universe?
"overpowered" I see what you did there
Praise our lord and saviour
*GONK*
@@starwrs3468 I couldn't believe when I looked up droid that says gonk it turned out his name was Gonk Droid
A surprise to be sure,but a welcome one.
we will look her career with great interest
Oh I get that reference!!
I get that reference too :)
@@ismaellamas3470 General Misquoti!
I understood that reference!
You have opened a whole new world for reviews, be prepared for endless recommendations
Can we start with the samurai movies Star Wars is based on?
I rest my case
Ooof she should check out the recent clone wars show ild love to hear what she thinks considering shes not fond of the prequels lol
“Should your boyfriend make you watch: A New Hope”
Me: No......... *HE SHOULD MAKE YOU WATCH EVERY MOVIE*
Except the Disney trilogy. We don’t talk about those.
Bob Wilson yes, we’ll go Harry Potter style, and say Those who shall not be named.
Bob Wilson nope, every movie so she can decide for herself because if she skips the Disney movies then she should skip the prequels
David Baines I know the Disney Trilogy gets a lot of hate, and I don’t like it that much either, but The Force Awakens, and The Rise Of Skywalker we’re decent, Last Jedi sucked. Same goes for the Prequels too I guess Phantom Menace was really cool, I didn’t like Attack Of The Clones that much, and Revenge Of The Sith was a masterpiece regardless of what you say.
Sean McGuire I have said it before on the internet and I’ll say it again: As stand-alone movies, TLJ and TRoS are decent, but as *_STAR WARS_* movies, they are atrocious and blasphemous. They shit on all of the movies that cam before them. Sure, some of the dialogue in the prequels was a bit cringe, but at least it was respectful of he source material, and made a trilogy that follows the rules of, and respects the lore of, the movies that came before it. The only exception to this that I could think of would be midichlorians, but those are mentioned in throwaway lines in one movie, not as a major plot point of the movie. All in all, while not being the most critically acclaimed or best written Star Wars movies, the prequels at the very least create a story that makes sense in the context of the Star Wars universe, and is respectful of the characters.
I like your version of ANH better especially “they drank paint” and “everyone wants to meet a hot guy with a cute dog”
Please do more movie reviews! I'm laughing so hard
“Obi Wan goes OOWWOOWOOOOWOWOOO and it is never addressed how he made that sound”
It's the sound of his wicked wick blowing in the breeze
I burst out laughing at the TI-84 reference
It’s such an absurd update, the original sounds was way better for a Krayt dragon 😂 whenever I hear it now, I think of some voice from family guy doing some spooky bit, with tons of reverb. It’s comical 🤦🏽♂️😂
Yes. Please do more movie reviews. I haven't laughed so hard in a while. This was great!👍😂
It is finally addressed in the book Obi Wan. But that was a funny line!
"Have you ever heard the sound of despair, a call from the void to do something great and a glimmer of hope all at once? 'Cause here it is!" ~John Williams
Seriously great review and style. Can't wait to see your Empire Strikes Back review.
Yeah me too this is where the fun begins.
*SPACE HITLER*
"people who worship the devil"
*sad zabrak noises*
“ and wearing 3D glasses over my normal glasses is... fun.”
That hit close to home
I'll never get tired of Bye Spiderman 😂
I actually don't get this one. Can u please explain?
I mean, I did watch Infinity War, but... what's making stating a simple fact so funny?
Vladislav
(I’m assuming you aren’t being sarcastic, so I’m literally about to explain why a joke is funny, so it may come off as condescending. However try not to take it that way)
It’s somewhat in part, her delivery. She giggles while saying it, which alone is reason to find something funny. Laughing is contagious.
But primarily the humor of the joke stems from the surprise of such a serious scene, being used in juxtaposition to such a casual and cute context. Just the general unexpectedness of it.
In addition, at this point, she has made the joke twice now so it’s starting to get the feeling of being a running gag, of sorts. A kind of inside joke almost. And people also find inside jokes endearing and extra funny. Which is why shows like It’s Always Sunny, and Archer, are so popular.
@@HyenaPinetree yeah, that's exactly what I asked and what I thought.
Thank you!
Not a fan of using serious themes for comic relief though,
but in general we're on a same page here.
Like, 99.99% in general)) I love this channel))
@@RazorBaze I mean why is Shaggy using 0,001% of his power to make me mention him in this comment funny? It doesn't make any sense but it cracks me up every time
It's a meme, like her holup a minute, the more she says it the funnier it gets until is not funny anymore
@@miguelrico9924 I guess some memes are just more welcome than others. With, or without forcing. For me at least.
It's just a matter of personal preferences.
This is an awesome evolution for the channel! I was not expecting this but I am pleasantly surprised! 😚
A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.
@@Vincentdrummer16 Damn, you beat me to it.
Wish she review Nier: Automata
Uh. It's a movie review. It's a welcomed addition to the repertory but not exactly earth-shattering or revolutionary.
Vicky War
Or FFXV
I must’ve replayed “Obi-wan goes OHOUOUOHOUOO” a dozen times lmao
To help those who are looking for it... 5:53
“...his ring, his wand, his leeeather”
I laughed so hard there’s spit on my iPad. You made me spit on my iPad.
My first date with my wife was actually to watch Star Wars: A New Hope. I made dinner and she came over to watch Star Wars. The rest is history. :D
A dyad in the force.
Was it on netflix? Hahaha
John II You think it was the Star Wars, but it was actually the dinner. 😹
So you're wife....
She single?
I want this as my first date with my future husband 🥺
oh sweet a new game re- HOL UP A MINUTE
DAS A RED FLAG
I read that hol up in her voice
Honestly this needs to be on a shirt.
I understood that reference!
@@kelnhide merchandise sales info coming in next video /s
5:17 HOW DARE YOU DISRESPECT AND PATRONIZE LORD GONK IN SUCH A MANNER
For the record, big prequel fan here. You got my like for that "it's treason then" (im also a huge fan of the channel and I could never dislike your amazing work)
You ever watched The Clone Wars it's made the prequels better.
@@abramsullivan7764 Literally have that show memorized
@@abramsullivan7764 it's what helped revenge of the sith to be a masterpiece. After watching the clone wars and you really see anakin development.
You're a comedic genius. Review whatever, I'll watch it
Should your boyfriend make you eat a pear?
“Star Wars isn’t bad, the PREQUELS are bad!”
“So this is how democracy dies, with thunderous applause”
Good vid

@@bisapien123 *democracy
@@orimengu It's definitely liberty lol, not democracy. There are clips here on UA-cam.
@@orimengu *liberty
the whole green screen joke was ironic since the prequels (specifically the phantom menace) actually had more miniatures, props and costumes than the original trilogy combined
"Everyone wants to meet a hot guy with a cute dog." I... I've loved Han & Chewie on a molecular level since 1st grade and now I understand why.
In all seriousness, when you showed the double sunset clip with the John Williams music, I had literal shivers. That was the most moving time I've seen that scene (and I've watched that movie probably 100 times)
5:37 to 5:50. The most accurate description of how that music made me feel the first time. I still got chills hearing it together with that scene all these years later.
Golgiapparatus2 description is soooo goooooood right?!?
everytime
honestly it reminds me of a time when i was a kid watching these movies... it makes me tear up just thinking about that time and how it made me feel. it's beautiful
Somewhere out there there's a version of A New Hope that includes only the scenes with music. Made me feels things I didn't know I could feel.
I cried when the music hit!
That Willy Wonka light saber edit was great 😂
Things like that are why this channel has grown the way it has.
This was just perfect.
Id pay money to see a remake of willy wonka with lightsabers
Lol yes.
But light saber edits are always great.
Watch the Bruce Lee light saber fight xD
that was sooo good can you start doing more film reviews you guys are so good at them!
I legit teared up a few times with this. Very, very new to your videos. I loved it. Funny, well edited, a beautiful poetry to your description of the two suns scene. Just lots of things to like in a small amount of time. Very well done! Kudos to you, and congrats to your boyfriend for being with you.
She's a natural comedian
The scripts for this channel is so witty!
Are*
your stuff......not so much :D
Pod042: This pod has serious concerns about unit A2's cognitive abilities.
That laughing ''Bye Spider-Man'' will always get me
Your editing and commentary is so on point I love it.
Well, palpatine is space Hitler, Vader is more like space Rommel
I don't think the emperor was in episode 4.
Evil space Rommel
Space Rommel is Thrawn
Vader is Himmler
@@Niekel10 Rommel was evil Rommel
"bye alderan, bye spiderman"
Laugh so hard I miss most of the rest of the video and have to watch it again.
They need to continue that as a joke.
For me it was the "It's treason, then.." bit
Hands down the BEST recap of anything EVER!!!
Your videos are cohesive and entertaining....OH my GOD, the MEMES!!!
You guys are quickly becoming one of my favorite channels on youtube.
Please keep it up.....
This might just be one of the best reviews of Star Wars i've seen so far. Nicely done.
mocking Vader for saying "I'll try spinning that's a good trick" 😂😂😂
Your description of the song while Luke watches the sunset is... incredible. Lol. This was amazing. Somehow even better than the video game reviews? I don’t know how that’s even possible
I thought the same about her description. It just blew me away because that's exactly what it makes me feel. And also the fact that it's called "The Force Theme" makes me emotional in a way...
This video actually makes me want to watch A New Hope again, something I’ve not felt since....
Spot on. Your retelling of the Hero's Journey as it relates to A New Hope was fantastic.. My wife and I just watched the most recent Star Wars Movie, The Rise of Skywalker. We really enjoyed it. Not because it was anything original or had ground breaking costumes, designs, music, special effects, etc, but it was a fun movie to watch. In many ways it was the same story as A New Hope aka a Hero's Journey. We knew what we would get in the end and the journey to that end was fun to watch. The dialog was decent and the acting was good. You two keep making videos and we will keep watching.
I was feeling pretty awful after my 12 hour night shift, thinking nothing could help. But luckily, after Girlfriend Reviews posted this video my headache went away, I'm debt free, and my dad finally came back from the war.
woah how did gf reviews bring your dad back
It didn’t work for me. Should I try again on chrome or Firefox
George Parkinson have you tried windows vista? The older version of windows usally brings my dad back from getting cigarettes! but then I wake up again..
Creanzey damn you windows vista
ph07 Hey sir, have you tried PEW DI PIEE PEWW PEE?
Let's be real, Hans Zimmer is dope, but John Williams is the goat.
Those two have a completely different style. Almost to the point that you can't compare them. I like both lf them. They rank among the best movie composers of all time.

They both ripped off Richard Strauss anyway.
Well they both utilize motif's from the GOATs. Also, Akira Ifukube says hi
Hans Zimmer is a low level studio composer like many others.
Just now getting this on my feed, haven’t been subscribed to the channel long. But boy is your content oh so entertaining. Thank you!
I'm in the boat of liking the prequels and the original trilogy
The original is better but the prequels are not as bad as people say they are I actually like them too
All the same here. I think the prequels actually explain and show really well how Anakin Skywalker becomes Darth Vader.
@@TheFighterbike Jeah, sand is mostly responsible and Emo-teenager-angst AND horrible acting of course. This only could end in something Evil.
McGriddle69 As long as the Disney trilogy is not included, I agree.
McGriddle69 they’re both great in their own ways!
"wearing 3d glasses on top of my normal glasses... is... fun..."
yeah sis i feel you =(
why dont they just make big lenses we can clip over our normal glasses. Why do I have to wear 2 pair of glasses like some cyber goth
I bought some clip on 3d glasses at my theatre. They're so nice, I can just clip them on my normal glasses. Maybe they've something like that at your theatre too?
This is the best summary of the magic of Star Wars I've ever heard.
Oh my, you have not heard the summary made by a certain UA-camr named StephenPlays then....
2:35 made me cry. What an amazing use of that song.
This is one of the funniest and sincere reviews that I have heard from a non life long Star Wars fan, I laughed so hard at some of the video cuts. But you are right on the dot with the message. By the way, the funniest part when Han has that expression when Lea tells him that Luke is her brother...and what he really thinking is that brother/sister kiss scene in Empire Strikes Back.... PRICELESS!!
“Bye Spider Man”
Kills me every time.
Movie reviews ? A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.
This is my favorite video out of all your videos. It brought me so much joy 😂😂. I want to see more movie reviews!!!!
Always love these first impressions of Star Wars! Thanks for sharing!
A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one!
Obi-wan spinning move got me lol
Love the movies reviewing idea! This was fun to watch!
Watching this now over a year later and loved it! Love your videos and would love more movie reviews!
r/prequelmemes will hear of this
They will watch her career with great interest
_SMASH THAT DISLIKE BUTTON_
but don't really cos the video was so cute
This is where the fun begins
Not if Sithposting hears first
Are we blind? Deploy the downvotes!
Hol'up a minute, this isn't a video game?
Hol'up a second minute, this is really good!
Hol'up a third minute, this is a legit first-timers review of Star Wars!?!
This was great! Wonderful companion to Bob Chipman's or Film Crit Hulk's feature length reviews of the original Star Wars
Honestly such a beautiful review of star wars from an outside perspective. Especially the line about the soundtrack at the twin sunsets.
Fun fact: Obi going "wooHooHoowooWwOo" is just him saying "hello there" in sand people.
Haha love the ''its treason then'' > dislike lightsaber
Je55e James favorite part lol
On the brink of another movie I had to watch this and u are awesome! Keep it ip!
I love this direction you guys are taking the channel.
Girlfriend Reviews makes you FEEL like you are watching someone watch someone dressed as a Sith Lord with someone special watching with.
This is literally the first comment I've ever made on a UA-cam video. EVER. But your videos are so charming and fresh that I just had to, besides the fact that they evoke so, so many wonderful memories of the early days of my relationship with my now-husband. Backseat gaming with him is what got me into video games, and while I'm terrible at them, it's definitely one of the most fun interests he's given me.
And this latest video! We're both big Star Wars fans, so much so that we started a podcast on it two years ago with a friend of ours. Being creative partners with my romantic partner is one of the most rewarding things I've ever done, and I'm sure you and your boyfriend would agree! Anyways, thank you for the great content and the warm fuzzies. Keep it up. :)
The way you described star wars really resonated with me and for that thank you
This was wonderful. Both of you are wonderful. Please do more videos like this!
Expanding your brand is definitely a good thing. Girlfriend reviews can be games, movies, comics, books, anything. Keep up the good work.
Ouch, poor Rupert Grint being hit by a drive by in a video not even related to Harry Potter
Welp here I am in Oct. 2020..... I came back to watch this again apparently as I can see I already hit the like button... good stuff, keep it up...!
best objective and analitic review of star wars EVER. Thanks you so much Shelly
‘Bye Spider-Man’ killed me once again and the ‘ill try spinning that’s a good trick’ left me in stitches. The comic timing of this channel is next level
“Woohoo, and they win the Olympics” The Funny is strong in this one
That was awesome, and you're so right about the score. Makes me want to watch it all again.
Fantastic video, you made my day when I needed a pick me up. Thank you.
"His lightsabre is the ring, the wand, the leather" WHAT.....XXXXDDDD
Back! I have laughed even more since 2:59.
And then you hit me with this: John Williams is like "Have you ever heard the sound of despair, a call from the void to do something great, and a glimmer of hope all at once, cuz here it is!"
5:43, the music starts, and there I am, a grown man about to cry ....
Love all yalls content but just saw this for the first time! I'd love more movie reviews sprinkled in
You've gotten really good at this whole thing. Best Star wars review ever. Nailed it
Currently at a zero in dislikes.
Prequels fan: attempts to dislike a Girlfriend Reviews video
Everybody else: its treason then...
I am the algorithm.
Don't worry, we have the high grounds.
To preface I actually think the Prequels are OK, but I can’t resist this quote.
“Anakin the Prequels are evil!”
“From my point of view the Originals are evil!”
“Well, then you are lost!!”
Sotirael can’t lie I couldn’t bring myself to dislike even with the prequel hatin
See, now I wanna see you review Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse.
Yes PLEASE
Yes
Needs more upvotes
For the love of Stan Lee people upvote this more!
Yes
This is the second video from this channel I watched and I am hooked baby.
Just got into this channel with the Last of Us II and the content is gold. Smart, sassy, and hilarious, all into one. Great stuff!
John William's took ep4 to next level epic. The score is such a core part of the star wars dna.
Your description of the twin suns scene was perfect
Star Wars Episode 9: Return of Hollupaminute
I want that poster
Hell, I'd watch it.
I just discovered you channel and have been binge watching it. What a unique take on the whole react/review videos covering the internet theses days. I just wanted to complement you on such a wonderful channel, particularly in these trying times. Your writing is ingenious and your singing voice beautiful. Great job! However, I did want to address your question as to how Obi-Wan was able to make that sound. There is a very straight forward answer , but it's actually different depending on which version of the film you saw. If you saw the original 70s version or the "despecialized" version Obi-Wan used the cosmic power of the force to create a bellow so powerful it caused existential terror in all who heard it. However if you saw any of the new "Maclunkey" versions Obi-Wan simply played a recording of Richard Simmons stepping on a nail. Hope this helped, stay safe have a good night.
I gotta say that i found your review is very well rounded and cohesive. This video has recommended randomly and i saw the channel's name and from a guys perspective i tought: well, time to buckle up cuz cringe storm hitting the town. But in the end i must admit that even though Star Wars is basically is a taste acquired in childhood your adult review is great. You got a lifelong Star Wars fan's appraisal if thats mean anything to you. Keep up the good work.
