"The Sith Knights were founded by a fallen Jedi Knight who was tempted by the dark side." The novelization and an interview with Lucas talks about this. I'd love to see a movie about that.

i love The Phantom Menace

People can say what they want, I like the prequels, but I'm not saying the original trilogy was bad.

It's amazing the dedication they put in for the fights

This featurette was on the Phantom Menace bonus DVD. I watched it all the time when I was a kid.

All the Prequel Trilogy haters need to watch this. Lucas wanted to up the anti on what he'd already done in the previous movies. And with the advancement of technology, he was able to do so.

What's disappointing is that we never got to see more Ray park Maul in the movies.... But then we were blessed with Sam Witwer.

Ray Park is a beast! i wish he they'd cast him in the Force Awakens!

Remember when fand said George Lucas doesn't know anything about Star Wars? Cause i do I remember all the shit he got all the hate Hayden got. But now everyone's like ahhh Lucas save us from Disney aghhh

For what it's worth, there's a reason the Force jumps and flips and falls and overall stuntwork look the best in Phantom Menace vs. the other prequels: It's cause it's real stuntwork. No digital doubles.

The beauty of a lightsaber is that, in keeping with Jedi philosophy, it's essentially a defensive weapon. Unlike a blaster, it can't be used against a fleeing opponent. But try shooting at it, that's another story. Your shots will come right back at you.

I keep forgetting that Liam is 6"4 tall. Huge dude.

oh man, i watched this feature on lightsabers and fighting so many times as a kid.

Man that battle was so fuding awesome! Just Epic. That's what I want to see more of in the next box set.

I feel about episode I is underrated but at the same time it was dissapointing, it had so much potential...

Gorge Lucas is a really nice guy met him once in San Francisco :)

the moment when you realize Darth Maul is extraordinarily cute... and Liam Neeson looks like a huge, bored Hippi-Harry-Potter

Darth Maul was the most under-utilised character in the series. His potential as a long term bad guy was tremendous.

I wish Darth Maul was the main villan for the 3 prequels !

so much better sword fights than the sequels 😀Thank you George Lucas for wonderful prequels. Love them!
