This episode is recorded as a commentary track. Sync up with the film as we countdown on the ep and watch along with us.

[Chapo Trap House Ep.405 - Star Wars Prequel Commentary EI: Social Justice Watto]
Guys I think Felix might be a Halo fan
I work at a theater, and recently we released episode 1 back into theaters for its 25th anniversary.
It was so, so fucking dead literally all of our hours got cut.
I'd have gone to it. But I've also been deprived of the cinema experience since the only one within 50 miles got torn down.
*walks up to Genius Bar* “hey, I think my Felix might be broken. It just keeps saying the same thing about the Covenant being able to beat up Obi wan or whatever. I think it’s some kinda bug”
Miranda Keyes would've put a bullet in Palpatine's head within 5 seconds of meeting him
the prequels actually ended my childhood - i pinpoint it as the time when i moved from an optimistic child to a jaded young adult
The first Pokemon movie did that to me. I cringed so hard watching it next to my grumpy dad that I immediately fell out of love with the series upon exiting the theater
You sure it wasn’t the hair loss?
Merciless, still he had it coming for posting cringe as contemptible as watching the star wars prequels was my rite of pasdage into manhood
Star Wars > 9/11
The prequels actually began my childhood film memories. The sequels is where I pinpoint the day my optimistic self into the cynical adult I remain.
Audience didn’t even know what a coup detat was 😂
Lmao the constant raving about how the Covenant would wipe out the entire star wars galaxy
Edit: if Miranda Keyes brought the In Amber Clad against the droid command ship she’d put two MAC rounds in it and nuke it from tens of thousands of kilometres away
Not as bad as the inevitable raving that 40k would beat both (40k *would* beat both, you see)
No sleep til Boonta
I did, in fact, follow along in my mind palace
watto was a saint
just tryna male a livin in a white man's world
Boss Nas was designed to be a Gungan with predatory features as a subtle jab at the predatory and exploitative nature of capitalism in the 3rd world. Lucas may be a sterile weirdo but his politics are pretty immaculate
Matt realized this a little later in the film.
it's really weird how much they like avatar, I could never get over it
That lightsaber sound was low effort.
Also I was shocked to discover people 5-9 years younger than me like the prequels.
What does the "Kilking Dr. Seppi" mean?
I would have loved to have heard this but with John Dolan and Mark Ames on the commentary
Qui Here ... Qui Gone
Qui U gay.
@@deathmagneto-soy Qui was born this way
What about the wookies?
1:39:00 Ki-Adi-Mundi would rock a fez
how may times does felix bring up halo and how many watto jew jokes are their?
32:32
I’ve never heard any s halos d so hard
I miss Amber. I wonder what she’s up to these days.
She was on the podcast a couple weeks ago. I think she wrote a book recently.
dammnit, Paul isn’t Muhammad, he’s space T.E. Lawrence…..who is also Jesus (y’know cause he’s white in the Middle East and he’s also their leader)
Open class actions
1:24:26
Are these guys still relevant? I thought the guy in the middle had a stroke and died?
I feel like you know is name is Matt. He had brain surgery or something, and a child.
Are you relevant?
You clearly know his name lol. Hope things are going better for you.
The prequels aren't that bad but I do look more at the storyy rather than the execution/production
Chapo's Greatest Ls. Never have they been so wrong and uninformed about anything.
No Watto was clearly a saint, did you not listen to the ep?
@@BigHomieGayAss1917 they were still butthurt about Bernie losing, and were taking it out on these movies. Felix especially was way too autistic in episode 1
@@valentinchappa6702 There’s a reason they were clowning on the prequels and not the original trilogy, just sayin’
@@valentinchappa6702 Will, despite everything, still also found some nice things to say about the Phantom Menace so if you thinking he’s being unfair, watch the Attack of the Clones episode because oh boy, that’s definitely the worst prequel movie
You ok son?
