Yes it's true. Thanks to the wonder that is KaZaA, I now own the infamous Star Wars Holiday Special from 1978.

I haven't actually got around to watching it all yet, but from what i've seen it looks absolute c**p, and I don't think i'll be able to watch all of it as it looks so bad.
All the stars/characters from the film are there, and it looks very cheesy.
The story is something about Luke Skywalker and Han Solo battling evil Imperial forces to help Chewbacca reach his family on the Wookie planet - in time for Life Day, their most important day of the year!
There's also a poorly animated cartoon it it too, and for someone like me who is used to great anime, it looks painfully bad.

Needless to say, George moneybags Lucas has never liked it, and has tried many times to get every copy destroyed, but there are some versions doing the rounds on Ebay, KaZaA etc, so if you want it, go 'file sharing'.

Has anyone seen it all?
How bad is it?

I d/l EP2 a few months back after seeing it at the cinema. Well over 300MB, it took me from a friday at 6pm until about 2am monday morning. But i made a healthy profit of £5 and 5 blank CD's for 2 copies of the movie for 2 mates.


Not bad eh?

Yes, but like Mr.T and He-Man, I like to uphold decent morals and values, teach kids that drugs don't work, don't swear or curse, drink milk not alcohol, go to school, respect yourself and each other etc ;D
