Brock and Elisha review Fanboys, a road-trip comedy about four obsessive friends who hit the highway in the fall of 1998 on a mission to see a rough cut of Star Wars: Episode I before it hits theaters. Packed with fandom jokes, cameos, and a heavy dose of late-’90s geek culture, the film aims squarely at the diehards who lived through the prequel hype firsthand. But does Fanboys capture the heart of fandom and friendship, or does it lean too hard on in-jokes and nostalgia? Brock and Elisha dig into the humor, the tone, and whether this love letter to Star Wars fans is strong in the Force or something to have a bad feeling about.
