These may be the best speakers car for having a party, but they are terrible for listening to any but the most simplistic music….

I vaguely remember this and I’m sure, at 5 years old in the 1970′s, I thought it was the coolest thing since sliced bread. But now it scares the bejeebers out me and makes me cringe more than the scariest horror movie imaginable.

Freddy Kruger, Michael Myers & Jason would run away screaming from this in horror.

lol, I heard even George Lucas said he wanted to track down every copy of this and destroy them with an axe.

You know it’s really bad when even George Lucas thinks so.

Well, I am quite glad that I managed to make it through the 70s without ever seeing this…ouch ouch ouch.

It makes the rest of the time-tested ~~Christmas~~ holiday programs look darned good, though.

/are you SURE this wasn’t a farce?

I think C3PO is the only one wishing he was a real boy so he could “feel” the emotions of the season. I, for one, am cursing my mortal neurons right now!

“…once you go Wookie, you crave no other nookie.” – James

BWAHAHAHAHAhahahahaaaaa

That’s friggin’ funny! A buddy of mine from Texas had never tried TastyKake (Philly) so I bought him one. Later that week he bought some more and said “Once you go Tasty, there is no other pastry.” :-)

Look at the way Leia’s gazing up into Chewbacca’s eyes. I guess it’s true…once you go Wookie, you crave no other nookie.

WORSE than Waterboarding…

This is in strong contention for the absolute most fu%!ing stupid thing I’ve ever seen, in a long life of seeing stupid fu%!ing things….

This comment thread was far more entertaining than the clip itself. Yikes!

Time to mental floss with some Spaceballs.

Watched this when it was first on. Tried to on YouTube last year. Lasted all of 5 minutes. After those five, took Shatner’s advice to heart: ‘get a life.’

Lemme clear up something. “The R2 from the first two means” eps IV and V.

Besides that, rocket packs? R2 never had rocket packs, nope never.

P.S. No! Never! It didn’t happen. The Preq Tril was an AP reimagining with fauxtography.

I remember that Chewie had family. Lumpy, Itchy and Stinky. Something to that effect. At any rate, the SWHS is the one and only time Lucas did not have creative control over the franchise.

I watched this when it was first on. I know that I couldn’t sit through it 30 years later.

Can anyone take a moment to transcribe that speech Carrie/Leia gives? I swear it was the same one Oprah just delivered introducing Obama…!

(And if you haven’t had enough of Carrie Fisher singing, rent “Hannah & Her Sisters.” There’s an amusing scene of she and Dianne Wiest auditioning for a musical. Wiest makes Fisher look like Beverly Sills.)
