Attack of the Clones Eviscerated by Famous Phantom Menace Hater

We’ve introduced you before to Mike of Milwaukee, the internet critic that made something that could have been awful — a 10-part, 70-minute video series on the failings of Star Wars: The Phantom Menace — into something like a cathartic work of art. Naturally, it was only matter of time before Mike turned his knives on Attack of the Clones , and if you can skip past the unnecessary live-action interludes that allude to Mike’s propensity to chop up women (stick to what works, Mike!), it’s another keeper. Are we the only ones who picture Barth from You Can’t Do That On Television when listening to these? [via Hollywood Elsewhere ] All nine parts are after the jump:

Celebrity Apprentice’s Summer Sanders on Rod Blagojevich, Sharon Osbourne, and the Contents of Nickelodeon Slime

Summer Sanders has only added positive marks to the reputation she established as an Olympic golden girl. The Roseville, CA native racked up four swimming medals — two of them gold — in Barcelona’s 1992 summer games. Since then, Sanders has acted as a commentator during several Olympic games and hosted a consistent stream of television series: NBA Inside Stuff , The Sports List , MTV’ s Sandblast , Skating with Celebrities , and Nickelodeon’s classic game show Figure It Out , where celebrity panelists guessed the hidden talents and achivements of pint-sized prodigies. Now, as a contestant on NBC’ s current season of Celebrity Apprentice , Sanders’s Olympic-size goal is to please The Donald and deal with Cyndi Lauper’s scatterbrained work ethic. The 37-year-old legend talked with Movieline about Celebrity Apprentice ‘s zany cast, her favorite Figure It Out memories, and an inspiring trip to Rwanda.

Christopher Nolan Brings More Inception to WonderCon

July’s Comic-Con might be the crown jewel of the geek calendar year, but don’t sleep on WonderCon. The San Francisco comic convention—which has been a part of Comic-Con International since 2000—concludes today with a screening of the musical episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer (yep, it’s that kind of convention), but it has already proven to be worth its weight in limited edition Spider-man lithographs. That’s because on Saturday director Christopher Nolan unspooled a brand new sizzle reel for his follow-up to The Dark Knight , the heretofore mysterious Inception .

Friday Box Office: Titans Will Cash

If it’s a weekend in 2010, you can be sure that there’s a 3D film sucking up dollars. The overly hyped Clash of the Titans turned the trick yesterday with an estimated $30 million (including $4.2 million from Thursday screenings), meaning it will shatter the Easter weekend record of $40.2 million held by—wait for it—the immortal Scary Movie 4 . As for the other openers: Tyler Perry’s Why Did I Get Married Too landed in second with $13 million (if only it were in 3D), while The Last Song finished fourth, with just $7 million. Don’t fret too much, though, Miley Cyrus fans: Song has already taken in around $17 million since opening on Wednesday and should finish the weekend with $25 million. And with that, the butterflies fly away . The top-five after the jump.

Project Runway’s Jonathan Peters on Stubborn Judges and the Problem with ‘Project Personality’

Jonathan Peters has taken a beating from the judges during this season of Project Runway , and it all came to a head in last night episode after tart harangues from Michael Kors, Nina Garcia, and Heidi Klum, who was supposed to wear the winning garment to a red-carpet event. Now that he’s been eliminated, the 29-year-old Rhode Islander opens up to Movieline about the judges’ misinformed ideas, Tim Gunn’s role, and how he felt when Maya Luz auf’d herself.

Jimmy Kimmel Says Aloha to Lost

ABC has announced a forum for Lost fans to grieve after the show’s May 23 two-hour series finale, a special Sunday episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live! called Aloha to Lost .
