Holiday Special Redux... (Behind the Dome)

[JEDIpartner]

I just got the new TV Guide...

I love the way they try to pawn off the "Holiday Special" as R2's doing...

...I think they mentioned that R2 has tried writing and directing and it was "The Star Wars Christmas Special or something like that".

This R2-D2 "mockumentary" looks like it might be pretty funny!!

I have a bad feeling about this..........




Sorry.

I like how GL said he can only afford so much in regards to Star Wars toys for his son and how he won't buy his kids lightsabers or toy guns as they make it too easy to knock stuff over and get into trouble.

"Jet, watch where you are swinging that, you're awfully close to my oh-so-fragile-and-encased-in-glass Yoda puppet!! Look out!!!!!" CRASH!!!!!! "Okay, back to the adoption agency with you!"

I missed the preview (Bears game ) was it any good?

It was shown immediately following TPM on Fox... The local news was delayed until 10:06pm for this.

It was hilarious! I loved the pics they showed of Artoo in "Saving Private Ryan" and "face-painted" in the late 60s! I also liked the interviews with the various STAR WARS cast and crew (what's up with Carrie Fisher's voice???). It was also kinda nice because they had interviews with Ewan, Natalie and Hayden- during those bits you also got a chance to see some of the sets for AOTC!

I thought that was amusing. Lucas buying this stuff? Doesn't he get it free as part of the licensing agreement?

Anyone notice there was something blurred out behind Francis Ford Coppola? AOTC stuff, mayhap?

O.K. I missed the boat on this one was there A spiecal on or something? Is it going to air again or was this just some little spoof after Epi.I? How long was it?...

I wouldn't worry, you can download it now from the official site plus the tv trailer. All poxy poo quicktime of course but that's what you get for selling your soul to the star wars devil.......

What the hell was that lizard thing he kept grabbing? I thought the blurred out image looked like an award of some kind although why they would blur it out I have no clue. Maybe GL said, "I want you to blur out any random item from any random background, it'll drive the fans crazy for months."

What IS the deal with Carrie Fisher's voice? From the looks and sounds of her, she'll never be fit to play Princess Leia again.

R2-D2: Beneath the Dome aired just after TPM on Fox on Sunday. It wasn't the full thing, but a preview for the download at starwars.com.

I thought maybe a Fambaa prototype or something like that.

But she can play Han Solo now!
