The last three Star Wars movies were essentially live-action cartoons anyway.

I couldn’t get through the Holiday Special. It literally put me to sleep.

Anon — I believe this is an extension of the animated “Clone Wars” series. You may want to look at that for comparison.

I haven’t seen either, so I can’t really make a judgment. But for what it’s worth, you made it sound as awful as it looks.

You can still find the Holiday Special online… it is great to watch and see just how really bad it is. The copy I watched still had the commercials intact, which was very interesting as well. A lot of the ads were pro-union, buy American, sorts of advertisements.

There was one for Maytag (I am pretty sure it was Maytag). Which was doubly interesting cause of the closure of Maytag in Galesburg. The gist was that if they didn’t make it in the good ole U.S. of A… it wasn’t going to be made at all. My how times change.
