    Hello, I’m waiting for 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment in order to teamed up with George Lucas and LucasFilm in order to digitally newly restored and remastered The Star Wars Holiday Special because you know why because for Star Wars fans it had a cult following to this very day so I just wish Lucas explain why he hated this Star Wars holiday special if he loved Star Wars he created why not do the same with this in order to put the pieces you got yourself a real special edition version of this, so think about it and let’s cross our fingers to see it happens hopefully.
