    This reminds me of "explain a film badly" haha, and there are some goodies for Star Wars. "Hard-working junk dealer loses his employee to a cheating space wizard, which ends up destroying democracy." is brilliant, and I like how you've mentioned the bet/podrace in here:)

    Love you Review poem. Short to the point

  • I loved the early Star Wars movies… naturally, since it’s Sci-Fi🤩. Therefore, I think this is a good haiku styled movie review!🤣A brand new category✅

    Haha nice way to leave it up for debate. In hindsight...last time I watched the prequels...I was more sold on Hayden's Anakin. I just hate the clunkiness and all the extra drivel that comes with George Lucas unfiltered. When you read about the team he had on the original trilogy, you can see why the writing is a lot better. But, either way, this is an awesome senryu! Well done, buddy!
