Who broke my heart, you did, you did

After the prequels, the Star Wars Holiday Special doesn't seem like such an anomaly. What is amazing is how much worse than the prequels it really is. Lucas hates the movie and it is on the Lucasarts Index Librorum Prohibotorum. The imdb site links to plenty of blow by blow descriptions of the travesty. The story centers around Chewie going home to take part in life day on his homeworld. Most of the action is with the Chewie household and much of the dialogue is in un-subtitled Wookie speak. It's that awesome. Throw in a Bea Arthur show tune and a Harvey Korman skit that will make you weep with anger and you have a real piece of work.

It used to be pretty hard to find it, but with You Tube, you can finally see it without spending money (although you will never get those precious minutes back)

Boba Fett cartoon (this is the only part that doesn't completely suck. The Heavy Metal-esque carton introduces Boba Fett)

The Cantina - unspeakably bad.

Leia sings - As bad as you think

Harrison Ford's low moments - Sigh
