5 stars for DVD quality, 3 stars for the movie
I'm reviewing only the DVD, and not the movie itself, which was a bit of a stinker, in my opinion. Well produced, beautifully filmed, but very poorly written.

Anyway - this is an awesome and incredibly well done DVD. Lots and lots of extras. Great commentary by Lucas, the producer, the sound man, etc. Interview with the composer. Lots and lots and LOTS of background materials on the making of the film, and the entire process of putting it together from initial writing to final production, and the making of the DVD itself.

The image of the movie is *very* crisp and clean. The deleted scenes are a nice addition to the movie. I am very impressed (and surprised, to be cynical about it) that Lucas has given us the full-featured DVD the first time out, and not offered us one scaled down DVD version, only to offer us a better version in a year, and then the full-scale one a year after that, like he's constantly done with the VHS versions of his movies. Thank you, Lucas, for taking care of your fans this time, and not trying to pad your pockets a few times before giving the fans what they *really* want.

Quality-wise, this is absolutely one of the most loaded, best-featured DVDs I have in my collection.

(as a p.s. - after hearing Lucas' commentary, and talking about some things coming up in the next movies, I have realized that a few things I criticized about this movie actually make sense oin terms of the upcoming story-line. However, I still think that, overall, the writing for this movie was only a cut above old b-movies)

OK Movie, Great DVD
The Phantom Menace was probably the most heavily anticipated movie in history. It was the prequel to the original Star Wars series and George Lucas was taking the helm as director for the first time since Star Wars in 1977. The film was hyped incessantly and, of course, the final product failed to live up to the expectations. The Phantom Menace is not a bad film. It actually is absolutely amazing to look at and the special effects are incredible. The problem with the film is the plot. It seems disjointed as it bounces around from scene to scene. It seems that Mr. Lucas was to preoccupied with getting the film to look right than the actual story (which is what made the first Star Wars so great). Many people weren't happy with the casting of several roles, especially Ewan MacGregor as Obi Won Kenobi, but he does a decent job in an undeveloped role. Liam Neeson is commanding as Qui Gon Jin and Natalie Portman is quite good as Queen Amadala. The biggest complaint that most people had with the film was with the character of Jar Jar Binks and I won't disagree with most of what's been said about the annoying character. Mr. Lucas has previously shunned the DVD arena (American Graffiti is the only one of his films to appear in the format), but he goes about this release with a vengeance. The extras, including seven deleted scenes, are worth buying this DVD alone. Mr. Lucas spent an additional four million dollars on them and the money is well spent.

prequel?
in this one,there is a council of jedis who rule everything and keep the peace.yoda,ben,some black dude and on like that.a younger ben finds a little kid-who is called anakan and later vadar.that kid wins his freedom with bens help in a very cool pod race.ben recognizes the force in the little one and decides to train him as a jedi.the bad guy is darth maul who has a double bladed light saber-very cool.hes the coolest looking character yet.i think peple came down too hard on jar-jar.hes a dork but there have been a lot worse.the kids will like it.it is the 4th part but the first episode.everybody should go see this one because just anybody will like it.anakans mom was pretty nice if she cleaned herself up.this movie isnt as good as the tv says but they blow everything all out of proportion anyway.this movie is abselutely incredible though.i think the black dude may be in the matrix too.its good too.the special effects are good.after this there is one more.then there is an animated short film.there is also another one on the way next summer.

To Lucas: Eye of the Tiger, Man!!
To quote the famous lines by Apollo Creed from Rocky III, "You lost for all the wrong reasons, you lost your edge. Eye of the tiger, man!"
A good analogy when you think of it...

When Lucas made the first trilogy he was a relativly unknown up-and-comming writer/director full of desire and well, "hunger" to make his mark. That drive lead to the masterpieces of pop culture we know as ANH and ESB. By ROTJ his edge was already waning but thankfully it was the last one... or so we thought.

By the time TPM came out he lost it completely and produced a quite mediocre if at best ordinary film. Living like a king for the past 20+ years made him not "hungry and full of desire" but fat and content. He lost his edge.

Peter Jackson's LOTR Trilogy is so much better than Lucas' last 2 efforts for this same reason. Jackson has the "eye of the tiger"!

Lucas HAS to get his edge back. Most agree AOTC is better than TPM but not by much. Will episode 3 prove that Lucas got it back??

If only reality played out like the fantasy of Rocky III and Lucas brings home a REAL winner....

What drug was George Lucas on?
I love Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi. I think that George Lucas should have stopped there. The two movies: The Phantom Menace and the Attack of the Clones....SUCK! What was George Lucas thinking? Jar Jar Binks needs to tossed off the face of the earth, and Hayden Christansen (while hot), needs to take some acting lessons. Not enough special effects in the world could make me want to see the third release. Poor acting and writing have made me want to run for cover! Where's the FORCE when you need it? ... Read more

AWESOME MINI-SERIES!
If this doesn't come out on DVD, I'd be so mad. Sammari Jack was an awesome show, and Star Wars with Sammari Jack influence is an amazing experience. I taped all but four episodes, two of which were the best ones, so I'd really like it if they'd make this, and so do you. Trust me.

Fills in the Gaps
I found that this series filed in a lot of gaps, similar to the Episode 1 explanation of Midaclorians (sp?). The fast paced, serialized structure of the serries is very interesting. I love how I suddenly "jumped to the edge of my seat", ok recliner, on several occasions. I can't wait for the DVD to be released!

Just like the new movies good action bad plot
Terrible, Terrible, Terrible!
This series suffers from the same problems as the new movies, horrible plot, and a perversion of the characters from the original series. Just like the new movies the action was cool and I enjoyed every lightsaber battle, but I never cared who won. In fact the obi-wan in the new movies was more recognizable than the blood thirsty general they portray him as here. This series is at its best when it is just long dialogue free battles, but then why not just watch Samurai Jack at least that has characters I care about and it doesn't further tarnish the universe of Star Wars.

RELEASE ON DVD!!!!
Even the "making of" was excellent! I can't stand the suspense! I've recorded every episode in order and transferred to VCD, but I'd much rather have a crisp, clean picture and 5.1 sound so that I can feel the thrusters of Anakin's ship knocking me back in my seat! THX sound would be fantastic for this movie (since it is, more or less, episode 2.5). I find it more entertaining than Episode II, and it cleans up some of the loose ends that would have been forgotten with the release of Episode III. Genndy, is a genius! Lucas, you're a great man for allowing this to be made! Just take the next inevitable step and release it on DVD at least in time for Christmas!

George Lucas, you better be taking notes . . .
Having grown up with the original trilogy (I was born May 25, 1977. No joke. Look it up SW fans), I have to say that so far the prequals have NOT been Star Wars films at all. They do not capture the essence of the original trilogy.
However, these little cartoons, these Clone Wars 'toons bring the magic and essence of Star Wars back to Star Wars. They are worthy of the original trilogy. The writing and stories are exciting and action packed (wow, even space battles! Seems Mr. Lucas forgot about the space battles in the prequels), the acting is better than the actors in the prequels (except Ewan McGregor) and the voices are dead on. If you haven't seen these - go to the website and stream them. When the DVD comes out, it will have a perminate place right next to the original trilogy. ... Read more

Although it was ultimately overshadowed by Peter Jackson'slive-action Lord of the Rings trilogy, Ralph Bakshi's animatedadaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien's fantasy classic is not without charms ofits own. A target of derision from intolerant fans, this ambitiousproduction is nevertheless a respectably loyal attempt to animate thefirst half of Tolkien's trilogy, beginning with the hobbit Frodo'sinheritance of "the One Ring" of power from Bilbo Baggins, and endingwith the wizard Gandalf's triumph over the evil army of orcs. While thedialogue is literate and superbly voiced by a prestigious cast(including John Hurt as Aragorn), Leonard Rosenman's accomplished scoreeffectively matches the ominous atmosphere that Bakshi's animationcreates and sustains. Bakshi's lamentable decision to combinetraditional cel animation with "rotoscoped" (i.e., meticulously traced)live-action footage is jarringly distracting and aestheticallydisastrous, but when judged by its narrative content, this Lord ofthe Rings deserves more credit than it typically receives.--Jeff Shannon ...

forgettable
I really can't write much about this film. That is because it is forgettable

A piece of ...
I'm sorry, but I don't understand why people constantly defend this film. "Oh, it's not so bad. It was good in it's time. It's not fair to compare it to the new one."

I don't compare it! I saw this years ago, way before the new version came along, and I thought it was horrible then, by any standards! And I'll explain why in one (or two) words: roto-scoping!

Here Bashiki had the hard task of cramming an epic story into what he originally thought would be one film! Then he wastes time and money with this animating over live action technique which does nothing but distract and detract precious screen time. Look, if he wanted to test out this new style, he should've done this with another film, not one as pressured of LOTR.

And when he decided the film would not fully capture the whole epic, why stop at the battle of Helm's Deep of all places? At least stop in a place which seems right to stop at (like the places where the trilogy was originally divided, for instance).

RUINS THE LORD OF THE RINGS!
This movie absolutely ... and still ...! I hate it. Thank ... I only payed ($)for it! The animation totally sucks (WORSE THAN HEAVY METAL 1) and the voice acting (totally bad!). The DVD is no better. The picture quality is horrible. The sound quality is horrible. Ralph Bakshi should have just made 4 movies in this order: "The Hobbit" (this movie's not that bad), "The Fellowship of the Ring" (Part of this movie), "The Two Towers" (not as developed as FOTR) and "The Return of the King" (haven't seen it). But no, he had to make it like this "The Hobbit", "The Lord of the Rings" (Fellowship and Two Towers in one long 2 hour nap) and "The Return of the King". How can these people like this movie. The live-action movie is totally better. Great acting, great (I MEAN GREAT!) cinematography and great sound effects. But in LOTR (animated) all you get for the Black Riders are horribly animated cretins that pretty much just screech and howl (OH THE NOISE, THE NOISE NOISE NOISE! The DVD sound is so shrill that I just wanted to take the darn thing out. You don't get a 5.1 remaster, you get a poor "Dolby Surround Stereo" recording of the soundtrack)! The widescreen presentation of the film couldn't make this movie any better. I mean it, why did Bakshi had to do that. He ruined what could have been 4 great animated movies and turned Fellowship and Two Towers into a travesty! Please, save your money and buy the live-action movie that is wonderfully directed by Peter Jackson, and DO NOT BUY THIS MOVIE! Even better, wait until November when the extended cut of the live action Fellowship comes out. Peter Jackson is doing this the right way. He is making a trilogy out of the Lord of the Rings. Not combining them into one 4 hour movie. ...

How can it compete?
Poor little animated film. It was to be the first of two films, but it flopped big-time in its initial release. So the second film was never made. There *was* a "Return of the King" released for TV, but its style of animation is more like "The Hobbit" than this one (I think the same folks were responsible for Hobbit and RotK). Nonetheless, this animated Lord of the Rings isn't so bad. Sure, the animation takes some getting used to, especially the combination of traditional animation and roto-scoping (essentially tracing over live-action work). But I think it works and it gives the goblins an extra dimension of creepiness and realism that would otherwise not be present in animated work. There are some tremendous battle scenes in the second half, which work quite well thanks to the roto-scoping.

I saw the recent Fellowship of the Ring, so I wasn't expecting much from this 20+ year old animated film, but I was quite surprised and happy about it. In its own way, it captures the spirit of the books just fine. But alas, I don't think anyone will pay it much heed when the extremely good Fellowship of the Ring is now available on DVD. However, if you are adventurous, give the animated DVD a spin. It's good family entertainment (well, might be a *little* scary for the toddlers) and it is certainly better than people tend to think!

Very Enjoyable
I am a huge fan of "The Lord of the Rings" book by J.R.R. Tolkien and when I stumbled upon this animated film of the first two books of the trilogy, "The Fellowship of the Ring" and "The Two Towers," I decided to watch it. Was I disappointed with the film? Absolutely not! Was the film perfect? No way. But did I thoroughly enjoy it? I sure did. This animated movie is very true to the books in certain places, but in other places the film is very off. It is a lot of fun to see your favorite characters from the books animated on screen and doing what they are doing.

As I stated above, this film is based on the first two books of "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy. The movie starts off with some history about the ring and how Gollum found it and Bilbo Baggins ended up retrieving it. Then the film switches to the present and Frodo, Bilbo's cousin, ends up with the ring. The ring is The One Ring that can rule all of Middle Earth. Then the first part of the movie details the beginning of the quest to destroy the ring. Then in "The Two Towers" film we see the battle at Helm's Deep. The ending of the film is a bit shakey but then I'll have to see the last movie in this cartoon duology to get the full story from the movies.

This is a film that is very enjoyable but is still with its flaws. I'll start off with the good parts of the movie. The first part of the film, "The Fellowship of the Ring" part, is definitely the best as it is truest to the book. We see Bilbo's party at the beginning, the Inn at Bree, the Council of Elrond, and many other things that were in the book. The thing that was very vital yet missing was the Black Riders invading the Shire and trying to find the ring. I was wondering where this part of the movie was. Other good things about the film are the characters and just the feeling that the film gives off in certain places. In many places this film is warm and inviting, probably because of the atmosphere that the movie builds up.

The bad parts are mostly that which was in "The Two Towers" part of the film. Most of what happened with Aragorn, Legolas, Gimli, Merry, and Pippin was true to the book as most of this part of the movie revolved around them. However, there was hardly any part of the quest of Frodo and Sam with Gollum. We only really see the two friends meet Gollum and start their quest to Mordor. If you have read the book you will remember that Frodo and Sam met a lot of men from Gondor and had a few adventures getting into the Dark Lord Sauron's city. This was the most missed part of the film. I have yet to see the other movie in this animated duology, but it is possible that this part will be there. I'm not too sure.

The animation is mostly very good, but in certain places it looks that there were shots taken from live action movies and placed in an animated setting. This was a bit bothersome, but not too bad. Despite the flaws of this film it is still very enjoyable from fans of the books or anyone that seems interested in the movie. If you are a parent with young children that are familiar with the "Lord of the Rings" story and feel that the live action movie is a bit too violent or over their head, then I recommend this adaptation to you.

Happy Reading! ... Read more

Interesting and Nostalgic
This DVD is an interesting collection of interviews and news footage. It's what you would expect. You will see a young Carrie Fisher, Harrison Ford and Mark Hamill.

The DVD is kind of choppy in its presentation, but the interviews are interesting and the look into the past is very nostalgic. I didn't know what to expect when I bought this, but I wasn't totally disappointed.

The Star Wars fan will love it, but the general public...may get bored. There are no DVD Extras of note either.

I know you won't like this,Star Wars Fans.
I bet you're mad how I always bring Lord of the Rings into comparision with Star Wars BUT I CAN"T HELP IT!! Lord of the Rings actors and actresses will someday be put into a book like this.Hopefully they won't end up don't voices for cartoons like Mark Hamill.Viggio Mortenson and Orlando Bloom don't seem like they are sharing that fate.Another thing:I sooo love Peter Jackson doing all three movies at the same time.It's okay for Star Wars(Though sometimes it seems like they don't act the same in Star Wars afterwards)Lordies guys have all had a easy time making it seem continus.After All They probaley felt they WERE almost Tolkiens characters.
Now I know that Harrison Ford is a huge actor but still.I don't think I'm as interested in Star Wars guys.

Not Much Here.
This DVD is a hodge-podge of footage of people waiting in line, brief interviews with the stars of the films, short cuts of sci-fi films and television shows, longer interviews with the series' fans, and a few other eccentricies. The narration of the DVD is really well done and covers up for some of the poor editing. However, other than the narration, that's about it. The "interviews" with the stars are really short and most were done waiting in line for movie premiers. The DVD also contrasts Star Wars to Star Trek and towards the end of the disc an attempt at comparing Ed Wood to George Lucas is made. Can you believe it, comparing PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE to STAR WARS! Unbelievable.

The only DVD extras are a series of short interviews with some of the stars of Star Wars. Most are with cast members from THE PHANTOM MENACE. However, there are a couple other interviews that took place over twenty years ago with THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK. The best interview in the whole set is with Harrison Ford and Anthony Daniels; it is by far the most entertaining and interesting part of the DVD.

This is a DVD that only Star Wars fans can appreciate it. It's not too bad for a hodge-podge collection of film. However, some of the editing is poor and there isn't anything new or thought-provoking. Besides that, the DVD compares Ed Wood's films to STAR WARS. If it weren't for the good narration and the Harrison Ford/Anthony Daniels interview, the DVD would have received one star just for the Ed Wood comparison.

Disappointing
I found the DVD disappointing. The interviews are very short and superficial. Much of the DVD consists of narration about public reaction to the movies, incidents while people were waiting in line for tickets, etc. It is not very interesting or insightful. There is little substance about the movies themselves. I am sorry I bought this DVD.

A nice unauthorized interview DVD for all Star Wars fans.
This is a great DVD for avid STAR WARS collectors. It has interviews with the cast and crew of all four STAR WARS films including director George Lucas, Mark Hamill, Carrie Fischer, Liam Neeson, Harrison Ford, and many others. It also has interviews of celebrities who are fans of the STAR WARS films like actress Christina Ricci, William Shatner, and Sharon Stone, among others. The interviewer asks some intelligent questions to the stars of STAR WARS and the celebrity fans, but then there are also some non-intelligent questions that the interviewer asks. There are no sceen clips from any STAR WARS films because this was not made by Lucasfilms company. It also talks about other films that are like STAR WARS, such as STARK TREK. This DVD can only be really appreciated by hardcore STAR WARS fanatics. People who just sort of like STAR WARS but are not obsessed about the sega would probably care less for it since it would be a little less interesting for them. But since I am a huge STAR WARS fan, I really enjoyed this film. It gives a good insight on the films and the people who were apart of them. Highly recommended for avid STAR WARS fans only. ...
