Just seen a few clips from the Star Wars holiday special for the first time.

That has to be one of the worst things ever produced, surprised the Star Wars
idea survived after that disaster.

Did anyone see the whole thing before it was pulled ?

I've got it on a bootleg DVD. It really is as awful as they say. To this
day I've not watched all of it. Life's too precious to waste on it.

This movie is literally the longest 2 hours of my entire life. I literally have
wasted my time watching it almost 5 times! Every Christmas and/or Star Wars marathon
it ends up in that DVD player and I die inside…. Every time 😭 😂

Weird Al was white and nerdy enough to pay for a bootleg copy. He seemed happy
to get it.

It's available on YouTube. It is one of those to watch at least once.

Whenever I show Star Wars movies to my kids and their friends in our outside
'cinema' (projectorplus garden chairs) I always play the Japanese sea
chicken advert. That always gets a laugh.

I watched it all the way through a few years ago and can confirm it is absolutely
the worst movie/ piece of televised media ever made.

I may be dating myself but I saw it on TV in 1978 (I've seen it on YouTube
since then).

Visited family yesterday and was involuntarily exposed to the Star Wars Holiday
Special. Unbelievably terrible. Also very disturbing. Some really terrible shows
are actually fun to watch, but this is not one of them.

How can you say that about anything Bea Arthur is in?




Yeah, no straight face typing that. And yes, saw it on it's only run on
tv.

The only real important aspect about the holiday special is that in one of the
shorts, Boba Fett made his first debut. You can actually just view the Boba Fett
short story on Disney+ titled courage of a wookie or something.
