Where to Watch The Star Wars Holiday Special
- Ray HopkinDecember 26, 2025What? I honestly can't decide whether I enjoyed this garbage, as there were some very funny moments, such as the animated segment with Boba Fett, Carrie Fisher obviously high AF while singing, everybody getting pissed at last call being called in the cantina, or whether I hated it, the VR porn watching, or the son reminding me of a homeless version of the Lorax, or Itchy looking like a reject cast member of Troll 2. So I'll give it half way. I'm glad I put this off until I was in my 50s, because any earlier might have pushed me away from the world of Star Wars! Haha!
