I just couldn't bring myself to believe all the horrible things I've heard about
The Star Wars Holiday Special. This
TV special aired one time in 1978 in an attempt to capitalize on the
Star Wars hype that the first movie generated. For years I've heard about this TV special mainly because of how horrible it was. I was finally able to download and watch the thing myself (thanks to the Internets) and I can now honestly proclaim that it is beyond horrible. I can't even begin to explain fully how bad it is (
Chewbacca's seemingly motarded family?
Bantha Surprise?
Wookie-Ookies?
Bea Arthur?) so I will have to suggest you watch it for yourself. I was able to download it via
BitTorrent HERE. Or for a limited time only, you can download the AVI file directly
HERE. It's really a thing you have to see for yourself:
Diahann Carroll??
Maude Bea Arthur???
JEFFERSON FUCKING STARSHIP?!?!?
I cannot BELIEVE that Darth Vader lowered himself to actually appear in this horrible, horrible mess!
I swear to the Gods, I really think
Carrie Fischer was high as shizz -- you simply MUST see her perform her holiday song ... It's even worse than the song,
Goodnight But Not Goodbye, that
Bea Arthur sings in the cantina!!!
I suppose it does have redeeming merit -- all of the principle
Star Wars: A New Hope cast members (minus
Sir Alec Guinness) appear. And the character of
Boba Fett is introduced (in an animated short).
I'm not kidding here ... YOU MUST SEE THIS SHIZZ FOR YOURSELF. Find out more about
The Star Wars Holiday Special HERE.
And may the
farce be with you!
