Card #020: The Star Wars Holiday Special

All else aside, the #StarWarsHolidaySpecial did give us Boba Fett.

I'll let you decide if that's a good or bad thing.

"More like vaudeville" is an understatement...

Card #019: Typical Wookiee Family

Behold, a rare official acknowledgement of the infamous #StarWarsHolidaySpecial!

Does directing The Rocketeer absolve Johnston's role in the special? 😏

#TradingCardADay #SWG1 #StarWars #DesignofStarWars #Wookies #JoeJohnston #RalphMcQuarrie

Not worse than the Star Wars holiday special I guess. 🤷‍♂️

#StarWars, das keiner mag: Die letzten Geheimnisse des #StarWarsHolidaySpecial​s

If you have the time use something to clean up the SFX at the end when the wookies are spiritually gathering together, give them some kind of ethereal bridges to be walking on which would also hide the stage sfx errors

and generally just do a tighter edit and that should get you down to a 48m made-for-TV hour.

i am like this close > < to actually trying this bullshit just to see what happens

#chewbaccadon #StarWarsHolidaySpecial

why is my brain like this

i think i figured out how to re-edit the Star Wars Holiday Special to make it... not good, gods know, but... tolerable

hear me out

(or don't)

but the key part is:

you switch the two musical numbers.

grampa wookie gets his horrible classic rock (and in VR so nobody else has to listen to it)

the stormtrooper that trader guy is trying to distract gets the disco pr0n.

creepiness factor drops like a rock because if you're gonna distract a stormtrooper pr0n seems like a pretty good idea

and the trader guy is way smarter. all the fumbling is him changing the software for pr0n.

next cut harvey korman down to a cameo, centre the boba fett cartoon, and cut it to like an hour

#chewbaccadon #StarWarsHolidaySpecial

Picked up and read comments in order for #Chewbaccadon of the #StarWarsHolidaySpecial tonight.

For me, the animation bit was great, the Bea Arthur bit I appreciate so much more now that I've seen a lot of musicals.

It looked like everyone was doing the best of their abilities at the time of the material they had.

This was basically a bad variety show. There were plenty of them in the 1970s. There's a reason you don't really see blu-rays for them.

Happy Life Day!

@ricci @moira @SnoopJ @jonny It's never too late

It's too something, but "late" is not that something

#StarWarsHolidaySpecial #Chewbaccadon

@neia @jonny pejorative does not communicate the desperate need it gives to viewers to stab

and stab

and stab

#Chewbaccadon #StarWarsHolidaySpecial

@SnoopJ @jonny we did

we were fools

#Chewbaccadon #StarWarsHolidaySpecial

@[email protected] The Star Wars Holiday Special. It was a multimedia extravaganza (pejorative)

#Chewbaccadon #StarWarsHolidaySpecial

@jonny The legendary #StarWarsHolidaySpecial

It does indeed live down to expectations

https://xkcd.com/653/

#Chewbaccadon

@diazona @hollie @Taweret Honestly take out grampa gettin' it on with his disco pr0n tape and it's a rather ordinary degree of horrific.

But, well, _that_ happened, and so, it is legend.

#Chewbaccadon #StarWarsHolidaySpecial

@hollie @Taweret I mean even at its worst #Monsterdon kind of hits a sweet spot of being comically bad but not brain-meltingly bad

(and by "worst" I mean worst movie, definitely not worst viewing experience)

#StarWarsHolidaySpecial #Chewbaccadon

Special shoutout to @Taweret and #Monsterdon for inspiring this whole thing

THROUGH NO FAULT OF THEIR OWN

I can't stress that enough

#StarWarsHolidaySpecial #Chewbaccadon

@moira haha yeah when you put it that way 👍

#StarWarsHolidaySpecial #Chewbaccadon

@diazona Just her complete lack of giving a fuck about this whole thing is a chef's kiss moment

"yeah I showed up high as fuck, i read this script. what're you gonna do about it?"

#Chewbaccadon #StarWarsHolidaySpecial

@allanb I think you misspelled "Let's"

#StarWarsHolidaySpecial #Chewbaccadon

@moira TBH I get it

Personally mine was Bea Arthur at the cantina but it could definitely go either way

#StarWarsHolidaySpecial #Chewbaccadon

Also, the absolute best part is Carrie Fisher's first scene once it becomes obvious that she's so high she can barely deliver her lines.

This may be because I am a terrible person but that part's pretty great.

#Chewbaccadon #StarWarsHolidaySpecial

@hollie @JoeWynne Yeah if any watch party ever needed a cocktail recommendation, this is the one

I suspect an appropriate recommendation would be like three bottles of wine

#StarWarsHolidaySpecial #Chewbaccadon

@hollie

We'll def need to provide guidance for proper preparation for it. Otherwise, backlash is possible.
