The Star Wars Holiday Special (1978) β¦ Full-Length Watchalong Reaction
Added 2022-12-21 05:33:02 +0000 UTCI am so sorry. If any of you willingly put yourself through this with me, especially if you haven't watched this before, I still feel bad. This was certainly a Star Wars that's ever Star Wars'd. Click here to watchalong with me, if you dare.
Also, it's a good thing I watched 2001: A Space Odyssey long before ever doing reactions for YouTube because if I hadn't and y'all made me watch it, the reaction to this special is basically how I would have reacted to 2001. π€£
Even though the whole holiday special is on YouTube, I still don't want to risk any sort of copyright hit to my channel which is why this watchalong is still blurred with the audio gone.
Please "enjoy". π The edit will be shared soon if you'd rather just wait for that, and I don't blame you if you do!
Happy Life-day!

2022-12-22 23:37:56 +0000 UTCI have heard of this abomination, but haven't given it a try until now. I am at the 15 minutes mark and I am not sure how much I can take it, haha, I have much better things to watch. But the whole wookie scene just shows you how risky having characters that talk with no understandable words is, and how great is most (not this) of Star Wars by pulling it off really well.

2022-12-22 06:16:22 +0000 UTCOh...oh no. You endured and suffered. BUT you made it through the worst piece of media ever to be put on our screens. CONGRATS... It is truly and I mean TRULY a miracle Star Wars survived this. From then on, its hit after SMASH hit of Star Wars media. So we can only go UP from here. Lol At least it's gone forever now.

2022-12-21 13:50:30 +0000 UTCHaha, i had fun having this in the background watching you subject yourself to that experience. You did it ! It is indeed better enjoyed while under the influence :D Life Day has become canon in the SW universe and there is a cult following around it in the fanbase. It is based on how bad the special was.

2022-12-21 13:18:00 +0000 UTCI just watched this along with you, and the Cartoon and Cantina were like OK, not good, but ok. Iβve seen the whole thing once before now I believe and it is truly bazaar. Legend has it that after this aired on TV George Lucas immediately SCRUBBED it from ever airing again. But some recorded it on their VSH recorder or something live. And this is what remains of it. It is the ONLY Star Wars thing I believe to not even be on Disney Plus. Though the Cartoon portion is. This was the first ever appearance of Boba Fett because he wasnβt originally in A New Hope. Itchy watching VR Dreamscape porn in the middle of the living room was π«₯. Whatever that emoji means, that is what I felt. And π€¨π€£π₯± for the rest of this Special, but seeing you witness this monstrosity of a Video made it slightly bearableπ ! Also you can basically forget any and all of this Special in regards to any of it existing in Star Wars Canon btw. Other than Life Day as a Holiday I believe and maybe Chewbacca having a familyπ .

2022-12-21 06:06:59 +0000 UTCNah, this needs to be available FOREVER so people know what never to do. π

2022-12-21 05:39:03 +0000 UTCEveryone telling me not to watch it just made my curiosity that much stronger. It was certainly an experience that I will never forget.

2022-12-21 05:38:43 +0000 UTCI've never seen this and I think I want to keep in that way π
