The Star Wars Holiday Special With The Original 1978 Commercials (FULL MOVIE)

[tubewatcher155]

Wow! I remember watching this back in 1978.....on purpose.

[Optimusprimerib]

They ran out of coke from the first rake-in and needed to re-up. Plain and simple.

[fightthegrip]

still better then attack of the clones

[janlappalainen]

wow, this is horrible

[sethmccready]

I remember when this was originally shown on tv in Australia. I was 7 years old and liked it, because it was Star Wars. Now I realise it is as shit as the crap Lucas is constantly doing to the original trilogy! Leave them alone George. They were perfect the first time around!

[TheSteelHammer1000]

I drank an entire six pack while watching this POS just to get through it. Like effing a fat chick, it's Star Wars, but you don't want to tell your friends you watched it.

[jbowes1228]

what. the. fuck.

[bothanspy11]

Stir Whip Stir Whip Whip Whip Stir

[1974Mysterious]

Carrie Fisher can really sing. Too bad they drowned out her voice with the star wars theme.

[dcraig09]

I wonder if the actors could even watch this after it was done, and if they wanted to kill themselves for doing it

[dcraig09]

this is the worst piece of shit I have ever seen in my entire life.

[zfrandomguy]

mind fuck

[zkhasbrouck]

ARE YOU KIDDING ME

[stevenj0hn]

Oh my god....

[crandersauce12284]

George never cared.

I wish I had known of this before investing so much time in the prequels. Wouldn't have wasted my time. Lucas has no soul.

[oxfordye]

@crandersauce12284

George had very little involvement in it and was very dissatisfied with the results. He actually said "If I had the time and a sledgehammer, I would track down every copy of that show and smash it." He still hates it to this day (as does everbody else).

[unluckyskydiver]

this is truly incredible. wow.

[sammysonfire2011]

its horrible im going to hang myself

[sammysonfire2011]

does anyone know why this was made??and was george involved??WTF

[phiznak]

jeezus f**king christ nothing has happened in almost 30 minutes

[kljhadfdhafklj]

ohhh that hurt so much....

[giveconnorhugs]

Much easier to get through with the Rifftrax.

[BlackAcesBlackEights]

20:35 WHY THE HELL DO YOU NOT INCLUDE THE BATTERY?

The 70s sucked!

[AKSxRick]

i love how pissed off Harrison Ford looks through this whole thing. Harrison "what the F*** am I doing here?" Ford as he shall now be known

[youngrspb]

Thank god Lucas didnt direct this crap! Ive got thru it tho.

[lonesum420]

Why the fuck can I not stop watching this crap! almost finished!

[mateoo612]

this is just... wrong

[detroitchris]

its really hard to watch harrison ford and carrie fisher (singing....? poor gal!)... you know they're like, "ahhh.. i didn't sign up for this shitshow"... and especially since "empire" came out two years later, which was so serious and dire (and amazing). and what is the deal with the cast??? bea arthur? art karney? THE JEFFERSON STARSHIP???  and why and how is chewbacca a family man with some sick digs? wow.

[bobbobato]

The si

[princemtm91]

I see why this only aired once

[stlrs98]

I flipped through this just for the commercials......brings back memories!!

[321boileranimal]

Boy that news lady looks like a real bitch

[stevenkingly]

This might be reaching a little bit, but like if the Forcecast brought you here!

[TBSArmstrong]

what the hell am i watching? 6 minutes in, and i'm confused as hell.

[lkop09nowbterp]

back in the 70's, this is what all tv shows were like. I'm not saying its a good flick, but for the time period i was pretty good.

[ARBuilder1776]

Chewbacca's wife is HOT!!

[marlonbrandy69]

hey! I´m from sevilla in spain and I can´t describe what I see this is a SHIT

[anthony77343]

cenA SUCKS BALLS

[NeutralLuke159]

There are no words to describe this... 

[loudcolors]

Why is there a cooking show????

[tmatkinson1]

first five mins was weird but my love of starwars carried me through the whole thing

[scantplanet]

Oh my god how has it been only 30 minutes! only my dedication to star wars is letting me go on.

[scantplanet]

First 5 minutes

WTF? this is just wierd! never would have guessed this was star wars

[Mollishis]

The commercials are so cool!

[petrietri]

.......I can't believe I'm on a planet where this exists

[entrenadorjoaquin]

I'm aproaching planet Boredom at the speed of light.

[sygnus5]

I got 30 seconds in and the flash player crashed. I'm not tempting fate

[KrayfishKarl]

This could have been good if they had just made it about the animated portion. But as soon as the credits rolled, I spent a good bit trying to figure out how I sat through this whole thing.

[Kleavers]

STIR WHIP STIR WHIP STIR WHIP

[stevenkingly]

@Kleavers beat..beat...BEAT!

[LordSamwich]

Why did i just watch this..

[SilentGear100]

this has nothing to do with Star Wars or christmas

[xZ0MbiEKILLERx]

When in the Saga is this set?

[Brickmaster4496]

Normally, I'd hate changes to Star Wars movies. But if this is someday rereleased, it would be the one exception. To be 100% honest, I'd love to see this remastered and put onto DVD. After all, George Lucas could at least TRY to fix it up one of these days.

[emilytonyterri]

oh jesus wtf is this shit star wars is supposed 2 be awesome this looks like a shitty disney channel original movie the only thing i liked was boba fett

[TheComicfreak10]

wait until seth macfarlane gets a hold of this...

[km10000000]

Tobor it's roboT backwards

[wbgiii]

Ok so the movie wasn't the best ...ok it sucked but it sure took me back! Thank you for posting it!

[videosammy]

this is soooo trippy, dude. lol no wonder Lucas disavows it. ^_^

[JetBeetle]

That kitchen looks like the one at Lucas's house that you see in The Making of Episode 1

[TheGame944S2]

1:38:35 The Wilhelm Scream

[AussieGeoffA]

I remember watching this when it was on TV in Australia. That was a long time ago, in a lifetime far, far away.

[monk22yrs]

this crap fest isnt even worth a sick laugh.

[5ch3nk]

Oh my God no! What is that thing?! What kind of unholy chain of evolution would spawn such a beast?...Oh wait. It's just Bea Arthur.

[LizardKing11397]

10 minutes in... Urge to kill rising

[RDarth]

1:39:58

The only part I like in this piece of trash.

[CLos5698]

Talk about a time warp. I want a reggie, but I'm quite glad nuclear war never happened. Otherwise, this movie would have been better with subtitles lol.

[MyHirogen]

wow, this is even better than the prequels lol

[rubberducky113]

My favorite part is 1:38:30 when the stormtrooper dies and then Han's line "it's okay everybody, he's gone"

[wolfintheherd]

8:24 -_- respect went down a little

[x3L1T3xASSAS1Nx115]

This is one of Star Wars biggest embarrassments :( then the new Star Wars:The Clone Wars is the close second

[lastdragon55]

It's bearable with Rifftrax

[tickettoride964]

What a minute, the Star Wars Universe writes in Galactic Basic, not English. In ALL Star Wars movies, the writing is in Galactic Basic or some other SW language, NOT English.

[tickettoride964]

What kind of species is the cook lady? A mix between Dexter Jettster and human? Or does she just have another person doing the second pair of arms for her?

[TheHalluzination]

Oh...

[VideoWolfe]

I spent more time watching the old commercials than actually watching the movie.

[SasoriTheOverlord]

Maybe they did not include subtitles on Wookiee scenes because their movie might end up being entertaining.

Why make a good movie then you can make very bad one (Instruction video part proves that they aimed for the bad and uninteresting)

[corporalcupcake]

i watched the whole thing. i think i deserve a thumbs up or 100. seriously

[Panda633]

This is literally one of the worst things I've ever watched and I'm barely 5 minutes in...

[80sfatcats]

@Panda633 thats just like holidays at my place

[1974Mysterious]

@Panda633

Yeah but its still amusing in its own little way.

[HippiePacifist1]

okay only 26 more minutes

I can do it! 

[backbaconnbeer]

Art Carney was at one time a heavy drinker but gave it up. After this special I wouldn''t blame him for starting again.

[matteby1]

This movie is systematically shutting down my vital organs.... Terrible.

[kaleidoscopekate11]

And remind me never to eat at a wookie's house. Malla can't cook for shit.

[matteby1]

20 min in... I can't feel my legs.

[kaleidoscopekate11]

This is a story that ruined so many childhoods. Please keep in mind that this was a GREATLY ANTICIPATED tv special. So many kids looked forward to this... so many kids.

[BladeStrike]

Chewies family look like piles of shit...

[mbeleni]

Princess Leia is on something... her pupils are seriously dilated in her singing scenes.

George Lucas has gone on record saying he wishes he could buy every single remaining copy of this so he could smash them with a hammer. Apparently he had little-to-no actual input and the actors were signed by contract to do this due to their involvement in the original trilogy. Clearly this abomination was produced by people who had no idea what Star Wars actually was. :)

[kaleidoscopekate11]

@mbeleni carrie fisher admitted to not remembering filming this because she was drunk during the filming. nerd fact.

[voldsdag]

6 mins in and i cant stop laughing ...

[Jvader15]

this is worse than jar jar and hayden's acting. there i said it!

[Pinocheck]

Is this for real!? Mother of god!

[deadbear991]

was this a real thing!? that was so stupid! if i was alive when that was on, i would never even want to see empire!

[genkidesukaxoxo]

@Ken14Z agreed. i saw it awhile back, but i had no idea what i was doing. took me a span of 5 months to watch it. couldnt make it past 12 minutes the first time, i tried, and looking back, it isnt any easier...

[jpeazerXtv]

best freakin video every made

[DarthVista]

8:30 Wtf am i watching xD

[rainbowinthedark73]

Utter crap, shame on the makers.

[lang1dan]

I'm impressed anyone can make it past the 9min mark!! :O

[Hendrikz12]

Can somebody say where I can find star wars V full ovie ? please reply

[OutlawDave12]

That's not any car for $99 a month! That's a CHEVETTE!!!!!!!

[TreySingz]

whip stir whip stir whip whip whip stir

[locjuan25]

Holly shit.. I couldn't stand 10 minutes of this.

[94jonathang]

Okay, so I just watched the whole thing (Yes, I actually endured it)

-Its actually not that bad, the thing that kills it is the random songs and worthless shots (How to build your own transmitter! :D)

-The animation is awesome!

- I want the Star Wars toys- also, a car with a $99 a month payment? Kill me.

-Overall- its worth watching if you have the patience, just turn off your brain, and ignore the useless parts- it has a good story- and to hear the Throne Room theme at the end? FTW!!!! :D

[MrWalriGuy]

You might say she did it by Hand....Solo

[94jonathang]

I know this makes fun of Star Wars, which is something I love.

But I don't see why it had a bad enough reputation, this is pretty cool.

(I'm 30 minutes into it, btw)

[americanmanhood]

Just wondering if the writers and producers of this were ever prosecuted.

[TehDarkJoker666]

............

[waywardtravler777]

Thank you for posting this....i love this ...i watched this as a kid REALLY I DID...but i rember the SATURDAY series...with the Tiny Box Robot....where is he ?

[waywardtravler777]

i think that thing that ART gave him was a SONIC SCRWERDRIVER demo

[Arkstrikle]

had 70s dr who vibe to it but brutally cheezy i remember missing most of it when it aired i was like 7

[surfinalien]

This is fucking insane. I think i just had a seizure.

[TheAlaskanMike]

i love their modern houses...or treehouse...

[Tomv1750]

The best thing about this special is when you get drunk so you can bear to watch it. The worst about this special is that when you get drunk so you can bear to watch it, you see everything twice.

[Tomv1750]

This is the way the universe would have looked like if Luke Skywalker hadn't blown up the Death Star in episodes IV and VI. A huge particle beam of incredibly bad stupidity would have zapped us all emanating from the TV Death Box. Or maybe Brezhnev would have shot neutron bombs at the US, making us all vanish without destroying our houses (and TV's), as we wished we would have when we watched this drivel.

[malekakkad]

O M G  !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Todde7419]

What in the hell did I just watch? There was no freaking story at all!!

[Pinkchapman]

HAHAHAHAHAHA. notice the NARRATOR doesnt mention his name . :) :) :)

[Pinkchapman]

i came here due to seeing this in WHITE AND NERDY hahahhahahahahahahahah

[solephonic]

that should've called this the death star.

[violinistslythie7]

The Wookies sound like if Mishka the Talking Dog was underwater..

Really though, I laughed all the way through. Yes, it was bad, but I enjoyed it a lot.

[Da4OneOne]

Lumpy or whoever sounds retarded!

[alucard624]

I honestly didn't think the special was 100% crap. The animated part was kick ass, and it was nice to finally see this in complete form. The fact that this was a better than average copy was a plus. At least Lucas was smart to release the animated part on the Blu-Ray release, albeit hidden though.

[alucard624]

Sadly, Harrison Fords acting was better in this than what he did in Return of the Jedi. Seriously, what the hell happened to that guy? Every interview he does now you can just tell he does not want to talk about Star Wars ever again. And yet, he did Crystal Skull.

[rbrbran277]

This is awful but at least it doesn't have Bea Arthur singing and dancing.

[GeorgeKayaian]

Of all the things for George NOT to tamper with! This could be the most hilarious piece of television history- EVER!!!!

[DoctorZordirz]

Watched up to 8:48 and now I believe in Satan. Thanks.

[vanhouten64]

This is the most awfullest thing I have ever saw. Every minute that I watches it I gets stupider. brain cells vaporizing.

[mcdrunkin]

@Caleb9849 I have this on VHS Im afraid to play it for fear it will break lol

[vanhouten64]

I wonder if being frozen in carbonite would successfully obliterate my memories of having watched this.

[ShiningLily3]

!:40:00 Chewbecca greets his wife.....making me think about how my husband is deployed and away from me and our kid. I'm a little teary...

[krakenwave]

@ShiningLily3

This has got to be the most wtf reaction to the Holiday Special ever.

[ShiningLily3]

Thirty Four minutes in and still going.

[Ken14Z]

@ShiningLily3 You're better than me. I quit after 30 minutes on the mark December 22nd... it's January 24th and I'm deciding I'm GOING to finish it... even if I have to watch it in small pieces.

This movie is an endurance test for those who have good taste. I will pass. And so can you with sheer willpower.

[ShiningLily3]

@Ken14Z I was quite frankly amused by the whole thing so it didn't make it hard for me.

[kaleidoscopekate11]

@Ken14Z Oh no, if you only stopped at 30 minutes, you didn't get to be best part yet: the grandpa's sex fantasy.

[Ken14Z]

@kaleidoscopekate11 Hahaha. I was WONDERING what that was... When I posted that comment I said to myself "NO! I WILL FINISH THIS!".... so I did. I finished it a couple days ago. Took me a month. Achievement unlocked.

[NecroHunter93]

Jar jar having his own movie doesn't sound bad anymore...:(

[4303Cody]

oh god why cant i look away?!

[4303Cody]

kill meeeeeeeeeee :30 seconds in

[dogmopsi]

Can't believe this is not an annual event, like the charlie brown Christmas special.

[LegendaryStory]

I don't....I can't....it's just.....I....I.....

[paintapastime]

@LegendaryStory There are no words...

[comidore]

wow... Colbert was right only got 21 minutes in...

[1stCainite]

22 minutes in. Cant take any more.

[brokentvpictures]

This whole thing makes jar jar binks tolerable!

[nickgc97]

wow i learn and see new things every week

[caliclia]

Loved the commercials! The show... uh... yeah... I heard it existed so I had to see it... now I have and I don't have to again.

[rickmainecali]

My god this is awful. I totally forgot about this. Lucas must have had serious dirt on all the stars who appeared in this "special." Harrison Ford probably said "I have to do what?" What a creepy and at times inappropriate offering by Lucas. Isn't chewie's father the creature from Big Trouble in Little China?

[djchaiwallah]

Historical proof George Lucas sold his soul before he re-did the original trilogy

[mosfetrob]

13:18 "What's Up?" best part in the whole flick!!!!

[MegaMusic36]

Thumbs up if you think this Sucked harder than When Obi - Wan Dies in the Freaking REAL VERSION Of Star Wars.

[MegaMusic36]

This Sucked -__-

[marty1901]

The old-ass commercials were more entertaining than this horrible Star Wars abortion.

[Jefferydadeadgiraffe]

THANK YOU

[Temujin35]

Was "The Princess" off of her chops or what? Too much charlie in Carrie on that day.

[cowsrawesome1]

"She did it all by herself. In suppose you could say she did it by HANd, SOLO..." oooohohooo God. I had to stop watching with that line.

[stanjk87]

Thumbs up if you watched the whole thing!!!

( I hope this isnt the top comment)

[keithmillergmail]

it makes me want to celebrate life day

[keithmillergmail]

damn all you haters. this movie is so deliciously bad it is an epic win for the star wars realm. I think this should be released on DVD and Bluray in a new special box set with the original movies the 3 prequels, and the tv series the clone wars. it would be legen...wait for it, jediary

[Kingsfin]

Do you realize at the time someone was proud of this? Suddenly Gredo shooting first doesn't seem so bad.

[plpamparius]

i got to just under 15 minutes. thats all i could take.

[plpamparius]

atleast its better than episode 1

[unicornvalley2]

holy god that was a rough hour and a half

[DastupH4040]

I'm done with star wars now

I just watched the commercials. I think it's really interesting.
