The Star Wars Holiday Special Gets a Force Awakens-Style Trailer
“It’s true. All of it.”
“Really, Han? REALLY?”
“Yes. Even Greedo firing first.”
“How about Itchy and Lumpy?”
“You GO TO HELL! YOU GO TO HELL AND YOU DIE!”
I’d say the Holiday Special almost looks good when cut to The Force Awakens trailer audio, but I think I’d be lying just as hard as when George Lucas says he always meant Han to fire first.

A PROGRAMMING NOTE: I am occupied with a press event for the rest of the day, but leaving you briefly in the hands of my friend and colleague Jeffrey Harris. Be excellent to him.
