Michael Barryte has done the world the huge, frustrating favor of figuring out exactly how to improve the much-aligned Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. No, really. He figured out how to make it not just a good Star Wars movie, but a good movie. To watch. And not want to throw things at. If you can spare about 12 minutes to hear Michael out, join us after the jump and see how this movie could have been excellent.

By the end of this video, you will be so angry that Barryte’s ideas are about a decade and a half too late.

Seriously, filmmakers: if you have any doubts about your sci-fi script, get in touch with Michael Barryte. He will fix all of the problems.
