-- The Star Wars Holiday Special - VHSRIP - FLAiR (http://www.vcdhq.com/forum/showthread.php?threadid=63064)

I was wondering if anyone would ever release this god awful piece of garbage. I knew somehow, that FLAiR would be the ones to do it. Video is like an Nth gen tape, audio is decent.

4/7/1

3/5/0.01

This is posted to a.b.starwars like every other week, heh. It's the kind of thing you get just for the sake of being able to say how horrible it is.

But this, this is just shite

I have a real nice dvdr transfer of this.... It's currently being used to level my desk Seriously this thing is awful, only the most rabid of star wars fans need apply.

FLAiR seems to have a pretty decent source for this too so if you want to take a gander at this infamous piece of Star Wars history this is a good time to do it.

Rated Versus other Holiday Specials

8/9/1 God this things awful


Posted by Moloko_Plus on 05-25-2005 02:57 AM:

Oh man, ive had this on VHS for years now. Why the hell didnt i think to rip it?
Ive got another tape called the star wars auditions. Its the original 16mm (i think) auditions when mark hammil and carrie fisher and a few others did auditions for the original episode 4. All in black in white and shit, but its pretty cool.


Posted by shagnastie on 05-25-2005 03:09 AM:

Ive had this A While and its terrible - I too couldnt get past Ghewies family and the - Like noted before its downlable jsut for the point of saying youve seen it - it was - is a rearity - But Believe me i dont know a single person to sit through it all.

Lucas has totally written this part of his life away - Although I much preferd this to the Phantom Menace..

Pic 6
Audio 6
Film 3 - believe me all youll do is flick through it -

Jeeezus.

3/4/1

hmm, this wouldn't be the group that "released" heat vision and jack would it?

You know, that old jack black skit from the ben stiller show that was circulating the net for atleast 15 years before the group "grabbed" it, and tagged it as theirs.

This is a sick joke, releasing crap like this.

I mean, im not gonna bitch about releases, but you can't even cal lthis a release.

Pixels pixels and more pixels

ThP released that heat vision and jack thing. And for those who don't understand.... FLAiR RELEASES CLASSIC AND OUT OF PRINT VHS/DVDRIPS! If you weren't alive in the 80's these releases probably are not for you. I, on the other hand can't get enough classic stuff. Keep it coming FLAiR


Posted by ^Om3n on 05-26-2005 09:01 AM:

How good do you all really expect a late 70's (possibly early 80's if redistributed) vhs tape to be? Go on, pull out some of your old 70's tapes and have a look.

Not much of a star wars fan, i enjoyed the movies for the most part but thats about it. But the fact that this even exists (which i was unaware of) interests me enough to have a look.

Well, i´ve seen a few pdvd of this on misc scifi conventions for the last few years. Quality is about the same as the Flair release. 5 for picture and 6 for audio.
Hard to rate the movie, but i reckon the worst Star Wars fan would like it.
My guess is that it´ll never be aired or be released on dvd since Lucas hate it.
Fun to add to the archives, Thanx for a very weird and awesome release Flair!
