Today I have updated The Star Wars Holiday Special in the
Television Shows section under
Movies. To conclude the week long celebration of the 30th
Anniversary, I have replaced the 2 inch squared version video with an easier to
see 720X480 version. I have broken the video into two parts because it is a
large download and runs for about 1 hour and 35 minutes.
Sideshow Collectibles latest cool figure is now available for
pre-order! Get the 12 Inch Captain Antilles from Episode IV: A New Hope while it
lasts! Your Vader figure needs someone to choke.
Today's new video clip is a Game

or scene from any video game in a AVI, MOV, etc. format, please send it in!

Yesterday was the Holiday Special's 30th Anniversary! It is hard to
believe that it has been that long. On November 17, 1978 I was tuning into my TV
to watch the special on CBS. Most of you probably never saw the special and many
of you may be wondering what I am talking about. The Holiday Special features
Chewie and Han trying to get back to Kashyyyk for a celebration called Life Day.
Many of the main characters from Star Wars were in it, but one of the most
significant events was the introduction of Boba Fett in a cartoon that Chewie's
son is watching.
The Official Star Wars
Site has a great article about the Holiday Special and it includes
interviews that were originally printed in a double issue of Filmfax magazine
#69/70 from 1998. Be sure to read the
interviews!
Today's new video clip in the Movies Section is from one of your favorite Star Wars
