Nostalgia Critic - Star Wars Christmas Special (Part 1)

[KittyfantasticoFTW]

@DasHinchen Hey! You have no right to insult Blue's Clues! Also, can you two stop bitching each other already? You're taking up half the comments section!

[melina001a]

Wookie Porn lol

[killer92173]

Here's a little tip for you people:

When George Lucas changes something to the Original Trilogy, it ends up becoming garbage.

When George Lucas HATES something, you're in a deeper world of shit than the changes he made!!!

So thank GOD he hates this special!!!

[DasHinchen]

@killer92173 I second that!

[killer92173]

@DasHinchen Meaning?

[DasHinchen]

@killer92173 That means, I agree with you.

[killer92173]

@DasHinchen Oh, sorry.

[bhickman6]

NostalgiaCritic actually makes this turkey fun and interesting. More please. 

[WiiUDude]

@TheAGKMisadventures They could possibly release it the Christmas they release 6.

[doombybbr]

so that wookie is a fleshy(opposite of furry), that must be awkward in wookee sociaty.

[TheAGKMisadventures]

i want a Star Wars Christmas Special in 3D.

[Xinathor]

when did Winter become such a hoe during that creepy trance screen

[AceAttorny]

Notice in the screenplay it says "Begin Bea Arthur striptease"!

[TheNatureFreak1]

I wonder if Harry Plinkett AKA Redlettermedia would do a review of this movie. I would like to see him do a 90 minute review like he did with each star wars prequel.

[LuvsCats1985]

This special makes you actually like either Jar-Jar Binx and Howard the Duck. And as a George Lucas fan, I like both Jar-Jar and Howard. To this exact day, George Lucas still goes out of his way to make sure that this will never be released onto any legal video format, even if there are bootlegged copies of this out there, especially on eBay.

[kawaiiPASTA]

Looks like Mom from Futurama in her fat suit O_O

[Ozztastic57]

Enters....um....well, wow! World of Warcraft?

[TrueSomename]

it isn't called a sand people they are called tusken raiders.

[MrDudeofwow]

nostalgia critic review cybersix

[megaman99880]

OH YESZ! OH OH ! WE ARE EXCITED ARENT WE?!

[darkangel2347]

I do own a bootleg copy of this on DVD and by watching this it makes the three prequels awesome to watch. The prequels are much better than you thought. Just watch the six Star Wars movies from Episode 1 to 6 in order and a far richer story appears.

[hamza721]

the prequels werent bad movies, they were just bad star wars movies

[HypercaneKyle]

Nostalgia Critic needs to review star wars movies.

[blogattacker]

Jar Jar ruined the first prequel

[TheBatmanSmells]

Stir whip stir whip whip whip stir stir whip stir whip whip whip stir...

[Nbernie72]

Damn, mark  hamil looks like a ken doll! LOL

[AxelWedstar411]

Christmas is space!

[AxelWedstar411]

NC has a big house.

[lightonsnow1]

Stir, whip, stir, whip, whip, whip, stir!

[MetalPatrick93]

For everything that is shitty about this, there is still one consolation.

At least it's not as bad as the prequels. *ba-dum-tish!*

[Johny2662]

@Returnofthejedi1000 Why would you hate the prequel trilogy?

[DreadLordBalnazaar]

The part with Subtitles was still hilarious! YAK Testicles! Sand Person with hair glued on!... HHAHAHAHA!

[greencomet2011]

I'm sure that this scene where the woman appears in the machine where the wookie was. Was really intended for Sex Joke with her saying to show her a good time and that she was his pleasure XD

[KMIECIKGOD]

And the best,"What the fuck" moment goes to the intro of this review.

[TheAeroAvatar]

Hard to believe people still slam Episode I (Which is a great movie!) when we all know that this.......THING exists >_<

[blogattacker]

@TheAeroAvatar Yes, specially JarJar was a great character.... NO!

[DasHinchen]

@TheAeroAvatar Go and watch People vs. George Lucas. Go watch The Plinkett Reviews. And most of all, never EVER call TPM a GOOD MOVIE. Just because this turd was worse, there's no excuse to call the other ones ok.

[TheAeroAvatar]

@DasHinchen Who are you to tell me what I should think? TPM was a lot better than this in most regards and is by no means "horrible". If you think it is, that's YOUR opinion. I say TPM was a good movie, and way too harshly criticized on many counts. It has problems, yes; is it terrible? I don't think so.

That deserves an Academy compared to THIS schtick!

[DasHinchen]

@TheAeroAvatar Even Blue's Clues is better than this! ...So? TPM was still horrible! The prequels suck not only in the "they destroyed the magic of Star Wars"-way, they suck also in the "basic art of moviemaking"- way. The camerawork is lazy and boring. The storyline lacks humanity and makes no sense. The characters are dull and alike. These are facts, and if you still claim that these movies were good, you either just want to kiss George's Ass or you have no clue about what Star Wars was about.

[TheAeroAvatar]

@DasHinchen So I'm wrong to like a movie you hate? What the fuck is your problem?

And for the record, I've been watching Star Wars my whole life, I'm no different than you on that. But who are you to diss me for liking TPM? I've run into enough trolling this week, don't you fucking start harassing me for my opinions.

[DasHinchen]

@TheAeroAvatar Oh Geez, someone call the BAWWbulance before you hyperventilate. All I do is telling you you're wrong, and I'm not even trolling. I'm telling you how it is. The movie sucks in all possible ways and if you still think it's a good movie, you are simply wrong. That's about the story.

[FACTAWAVES]

whaddcha talkin'bout carney?

LOL

[Casey5693]

Chewbacca doesn't seem like the family type to me. Since he and Han are always running crazy missions for Jabba the Hut a known criminal, wouldn't having a family just slow him down or get him in trouble since Jabba could hold them for ransom or have them killed if Chewbacca didn't cooperate? Him having a family just wouldn't make sense. Am I the only one who thought of this?

[eques101]

@Casey5693 I know what you mean, but it's in books now and Lucas agreed with is so he now has a family

[Casey5693]

@eques101 It's in books because Lucas set it up? Curses!

[eques101]

@Casey5693 from what I hear, Lucas likes to approve anything before it goes out now (most likely because of this piece of shit) so yeah, it's cannon now

[Casey5693]

@eques101 NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!

[DKN117]

@eques101 I remember hearing that George Lucas had stated that if he could, he would personally track down and destroy every last copy of this special. So even he hates it.

[OptimalElement]

where is star wars?

[MovieDoctorful]

@Returnofthejedi1000

I liked them too. Well...Apart from Phantom Menace. And Revenge of the Sith? 5 stars. Possibl;y best of the whole saga!

[Humbledingify]

Stir, whip, stir, whip,whip,whip, stir.

[BattyKellen]

Did anybody else notice what the critic's screenplay said at the bottom?

Wookie #2: ROAR!

Wookie #3: ROAR

Begin Bea Arthur Striptease.

[quidseeker]

HAhahahaham, ages dead-to-1.......I believe in abortion too.

[monsterboy31]

0:00-0:30

LOL

[HoverboardFan14]

holy shit! luke skywalker looks like justin beiber!

[Bestman1177]

This is just one of those things that you can't believe actually exists

[irelandcool1]

I only like the first of the star wars prequel because the main characters was very good imo

[michaelundert]

the only star wars prequel i see as a good movie is the 3rd one revenge of the sith

[rageahollic33]

well as terrible as this special is. it is actually deadpool's favorite . well because bea arthur is in it.

[EmmaOnATangent]

I am physically ill. Is that good or bad??????

[Hproductions64]

What'you talking bout' Carney?

[MrHongKongBuffet]

A 502 error brought me here.

Anyone else having issues with the TGWTG site?

[mrincodi]

@MrHongKongBuffet Yep. Me too.

[Gibsonsg527]

I actually found this special offensive to film and entertainment as a whole.

[5355vbxjbj76rvn]

George Lucas could not make a good film if his life depended on it - his ham-fisted ineptitude makes "King Kong", in its 1976 edition, look like a work of towering, unsurpassable genius. He is as bad as Uwe Boll.

[starwarsfan651]

wtf...



[JockenN]

I'm a huuuuuuuge Star Wars fan and I love ALMOST everything Star Wars. The only exception is this Horrible Special.

[Escafreya]

9:33 Twi'leks too!

[KazumaPrime]

To give you an idea just how bad it is:

On the 2010 television program Times Talk, New York Times columnist David Carr asked Carrie Fisher about the Holiday Special; she said that she made George Lucas give her a copy of the Special in exchange for recording DVD commentary for the Star Wars films. She added that she shows it at parties, "mainly at the end of the night when she wants people to leave."

[StarBoy62]

Wookie Porn!!

[hattrickster33]

Every time Lucas touches the old movies he makes them worse and worse

[AliceKoopa88]

4:21 - Begin Bea Authur Striptease XD

[megaexplosions]

all i can say about the star wars holiday special is way to graphic, so i shall say it in wookie: ARRAGARAGAAHGARAAGHGARAGAH AGRHGHRRAHGAGAGAR AGAYRGHARHGARHHGHARAAAgh

[MrImastinker]

The Star Wars prequels were fine.

Except for Phantom Menace and some of Attack of the Clones.

[ccrstarpanda]

@MrImastinker

and the whiny angsty character of anikin. damn man! you're going to be darth vader!

[MrImastinker]

@ccrstarpanda Come to think of it, in the first act of Episode III he was actually likeable; daring, intense, and powerful.

But then he figured out his wife was pregnant and it ALL went to hell. I actually think that if his Vader persona in the movie was straight-up sociopathic, then that would have been really cool.

[stlouisrocker100]

@MrImastinker I didn't care much for Phantom Menace. Attack of the Clones was ok. But IMO Revenge of the Sith was awesome.

[MrImastinker]

@stlouisrocker100 Pretty much my opinion. The space battle, Darth Maul, and Qui-Gon were cool though.

[stlouisrocker100]

@MrImastinker Yeah they kinda were. They were the main reasons why I was able to sit through Phantom Menace.

[MrImastinker]

@stlouisrocker100 BRIAN BLESSED as Boss Nass was pretty funny.

[stlouisrocker100]

@MrImastinker True. But Jar Jar Binks is still a problem.

[christiansoldier11]

@MrImastinker i apologise but, what parts of Attack of the Clones are rotten? i mean the movie was a bit like "DO SOMETHING" at times and the chase scene at the beginning was boring and they bullshitted it at the asteroid field round geonosis but what ELSE is wrong with it?

[MrImastinker]

@christiansoldier11 I mean the parts that Anakin was whining, they could have handled his story well but they just didn't make him seem that credible a character. Hayden's performance didn't necessarily help either. Also the parts that talked about Sifo Dyas could've been elaborated on more, and the fact that they put Jar Jar in AGAIN was just stupid.

But the rest was perfectly enjoyable.

[KBtheANGEL]

@MrImastinker Develop Anakin's and Obi-Wan's relationship into a brother bond, make Jar Jar a total badass that actually saves them instead of them saving him so he's actually useful, develop the character of Darth Maul, and don't be so political.

That would have saved the prequels. That, and not juggling so many fucking plots.

[wwefanboy916]

@MrImastinker you have that wrong. AOTC was terrible with some of PM terrible

[CommanderMT101]

@MrImastinker Well thats about half of the prequel trilogy, nothin beats the original trilogy!

[MrImastinker]

@CommanderMT101 Agreed.

[reviewreviewer1]

@MrImastinker All 3 were fine they are Star Wars films by the briliant George Lucas.

[Theriot6592]

@MrImastinker Attack of the Clones is great if you flash forward through EVERY part involving Anakin and Padme

[Ignore14]

@MrImastinker anakin was just a lame character, and the prequels were melodramatic. if they fixed those two things they would have been really good.

[drifter402]

@MrImastinker i disagree so much. ep 3 is ok in a transformers way but as a star wars movie its shit. attack of the clones is one of the shittest films I have ever seen and phanom menace is just bad

[bassmajor]

that Chewbacca Scenes sounded like serious animal abuse

[vjpearce]

6:17 Could that be Zaphod Beeblebrox's transvestite cousin?

[oakforestboys]

Anyone else notice that cooking lady has 3 hands at 6:15

[Bookfreak07]

4:25..."Begin Bea Arthur Striptease"...I never caught that before! lol!!

[CamelBallZee]

This somehow reminds me of The Hunger Games.

[Cartoonfangirl007]

Eeeeeee ^_^ That's Mark Hamill @ 5:05!

[LordGodsServant]

First time in a long time that I laughed so hard and long that it hurt.

Whipwhipstirstirwhipwhipsstirs­tir!!!

LOLOLOLOLOL

[jonykakuyo]

8:21 I thought that was Nicki Minaj lol

[Gibsonsg527]

RedLetterMedia should review the Christmas Special.

[Storiesofheroes]

you know something is bad when the creator of it refuses it ever existed, and then goes out of his way to make sure it never goes on air again.

[Bauglir100]

@DvinkleVittleSchtar Lucas didn't make this.

[WARP10CK]

@Bauglir100 He still approved for this to be made in other words GUILTY !!!!!

[CraneFilms99]

stir whip stir whip whip whip stir

[CraneFilms99]

This seems like a relly bad special

[gameskyjumper]

6:17 a third hand appeared.

[spyguy0079]

OMFG SHUT THE F***K UP

[Big12189]

I wonder if Doug has seen "Scanners", because he looked like his head was going to explode during that "stir whip" part.

[moneshmahtani]

.......OMG ITS SATANIC AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

[harukamale]

@Returnofthejedi1000

That doesn't stop them from sucking.

[some1fromhell]

.... i thought the wookie homeland were destroyed......

[halleljk]

@some1fromhell dont u mean no wonder it got destroyed......

[some1fromhell]

@halleljk lols well ok gd point

[Sunbreaker7]

I have nothing more to say than this guy has a huge house! O_O

[sporeboy67]

as once i saw the script i spilled mtn dew in my laptop

[Dylemus]

I jizzed my pants. Anyone got ideas on how to clean it off?

[glassessn]

@Dylemus lick it

[TheBatmanSmells]

Stir whip stir whip whip whip stir...

[ECW2006]

@ 8:25, was i watching a Star Wars special or a porno from the 70's?

[synyde6s9c]

just smoked and when the chewbacca shit came on started lmao

[tammyl2oo]

whip whip stir

[AdjualePuppy]

4:24 begin bea arthur striptease LOL

[davidho4]

But I thought Chewy was the last wookie? (or one of the last)

[Melkhiordarkblade]

@davidho4 No,but that would have been cool. And would have fitted well into the first 3.

[TheRedandwhiteroses]

8:17-9:45 is more than a Holocaust of wrong, it's such an abomination that I'm laughing at how bad it is, and WTF?!

[Nolus20]

So it's as bad as Rebecca Black's Friday huh?

[J6FIRE]

69 Assault LOL

[ShadowChanceSassy]

I watched this entire special on YouTube from beginning to end. The commercial breaks that were included, seemed to be more entertaining then the special itself. Thankfully George Lucas did not release this on the Star Wars Saga Blu-Ray discs. He's still going out of his way to not allow this to be put on any video format, legally. I feel sorry for all who had to watch this when it aired on CBS, and/or who purchased it on a VHS tape or a DVD-R disc.

[waterangel251983]

was the fantasy lady Diahanne Caroll? 

[melvar105]

@waterangel251983 yes...

[savedogz]

STAR WARS PORN 0.e;

[crazedcanadian2001]

4:24, does that say "begin bea arthur striptease" ? lmao !

[vidgwatcher]

DEAD - 1

[AthenasXAlistar]

3:29 for Mom: Junior, come over here and eat your yak testicles!

Jr: They taste like diarrhea. I wish I was adopted!

Mom:You were adopted! You're just a Sand-Person we glued hair on to! Now eat your dinner, you abomination!

[chadrageus]

Well this isn't the only thing Lucas isn't apparently ever going to release the original versions of the classic trilogy. Hell the original negatives have been destroyed.

[howdoyouspellnoob]

@chadrageus Really? Are you sure the originals are gone?

[chadrageus]

@howdoyouspellnoob You know what I mean. No need to get literal.

[howdoyouspellnoob]

@chadrageus Dude, I was asking a perfectly simple question. It seems highly unlikely that Lucas would go out of his way to destroy the originals, so I was merely questioning the accuracy of your information. Show some goddamn respect.

[chadrageus]

@howdoyouspellnoob It's been reported that he has "Taped over" the originals with the special editions. If you need good hard evidence I don't have it. However it says a lot that he won't release the originals hell the ones that were released a couple of years ago were copies of the laser disc versions. Whom am I supposed to respect?

[danschaoticmind]

I can't believe I am actually going to go through with watching this.

I will never be a man again...

[sonicadventureDX]

*Epic Jaw Drop 8:16 onward's* The heck? now it's Star Wars Porn?

[FFX2KH2Master]

MInd blow'd. He was personally ashamed of this. wow...just wow

[geoclph]

Am I the only one that almost shite himself when he fled for the door lol

[Rorschach1212]

@geoclph You're not the only one.

[sonicfan3346]

@geoclph So you almost shat yourself in the first 4 seconds.

[geoclph]

@sonicfan3346 almost, yeah xD

[DestinedJedi87]

"Because like most people, when you think Star Wars, you fucking think Bea Arthur." LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL funnies line in the whole segment!

[MissGreenAgain]

@DestinedJedi87 Well, when I think Star Wars, NOW I think of Bea Arthur.

[DestinedJedi87]

@aquelescaraaaaaaaaaa I can't speak for everyone, but the people I've talked to seem to think that he's based on racist black/Caribbean stereotypes. Personally, I never hated Jar Jar, but he wasn't my favorite character.

[tocofool]

i fell bad for the Nostalgia Critic watching nothing but shitty movies all day

[J6FIRE]

"If I had the time and a sledgehammer, I would track down every copy of that special and smash it." —George Lucas

[kriitikko]

I was drinking Coca Cola when that weird erotic fantasy lady showed up. Horrible, horrible mistake.

[Alioon6]

WHAT THE FUUUUUCK!!!!! NOOOOOOOO!!! WHY GEORGE WHYYYY???!!!

[14grunt]

@Alioon6

Actually I read on the wiki that George Lucas wasn't really involved in this but rather he gave someone else permission to make a holiday special under the Star Wars title, but then again he is the one who decided to allow it to be released to the public...

[Alioon6]

@14grunt Hmm, I did not know that, still its terrible and horribly wrong...

[Folgrimeo]

I don't think a Phantom Edit can save this movie.

[freefall742]

turned on the captions... LAUGHED MY ASS OFF HOW BAD IT IS.

[microsoftnerd4life]

ENOUGH! WHAT THE FUCK?!?!?

[MewTwo1997]

@MrAdzerman oh, im on my cell phone, so it wont let me see the top comments, hahaha

[ToxicDooM96]

Let's face it the only freaken silver lining in this is Boba Fett is in it.

[TheInstantClassic1]

@ToxicDooM96 I think you'll find virtually everybody agrees with you on that. Hell, Jango Fett is probably accepted as the only silver lining to the entire prequels trilogy. It's official; the Fetts are saving factors

[MewTwo1997]

WTH?! At 6:16 she has three arms! Am i the only one that noticed this?!

[MrAdzerman]

@MewTwo1997 Yea, its in the top rated comments *Facepalm*

[bobaf15]

they could at least put sub titles for the wookies

[14grunt]

I would go as far to say this is even worse than the Super Mario Bros movie.

[Mitch97914]

@14grunt It makes Batman and Robin look like The Dark Knight. IT'S THAT BAD :(

[plikminlol]

Being a star wars fan, I couldn't actually sit through this without feeling sick.

[GoldeneyePwnage1]

I couldn't even finish this it was so terrible
