I....Wha-.... I mean, ask 10 people what the strangest part of the Star Wars Holiday Special is and you may get 10 different answers. Is it the searing family drama performed entirely in Wookie without subtitles? Is it watching lil' Lumpy watch an entire instructional video in real time? Is it the appearance of musical guests Jefferson Starship? Is it the inexplicable five minute Cirque Du Soleil dance break? No, the strangest part is Boba Fett riding a dinosaur.

I tricked my buddy to watch this one with me. I regretted it in ten minutes. The absolute worst "what the hell were they thinking?!" pos you can imagine. That animated sequence is weird af but easily the only redeeming factor.
This is in my bottom 10....or 5. 1/10

The production team behind this abomination should be put before a firing squad!
