Also, Poor poor Jake Lloyd.\nHow do the boys rankings reflect on the film overall? Does their critiques live up to the overwhelming criticism that revolves around this movie?\nPlus, Griffin\u2019s chance encounter with Liam Neeson, who brings an authority called for in the role as Qui-Gon Jinn and has got gravitas for days.\n\nJoin our Patreon for franchise commentaries and bonus episodes.\nFollow us @blankcheckpod on Instagram, Threads, Facebook and X! \nBuy some real nerdy merch.\nConnect with other Blankies on our Reddit or Discord\nFor anything else, check out BlankCheckPod.com \nLearn more about your ad choices.
