While they didn't have the voices of the original characters, they did have a good ensemble of voice actors to portray the various characters that we all grew up with and love. No, "The Lego Star Wars Holiday Special" is a highly watchable animated movie by audiences of all ages, fans of "Star Wars" or not. I was just fearing that it would be an animated movie that was aimed directly at the younger audience. This being a LEGO animated movie, you know that you are getting quality animation. Trust me, there are plenty of them all throughout the entire course of these 44 enjoyable minutes. I will say that "The Lego Star Wars Holiday Special" is well-worth watching more than just a single time, in order to catch all the minute details and references. The storyline told in "The Lego Star Wars Holiday Special" was very enjoyable, and especially for a "Star Wars" fan such as myself, this 44 minute long animated movie was just crammed with so many great - and often subtle - nods and praises to all the "Star Wars" movies and series with references, scenes, scenery, etc. Just remembering having sat through that horrible experience still makes me shudder. Secondly, and most importantly, "The Lego Star Wars Holiday Special" is the seasonal holiday movie that Star Wars has been waiting to get in order to erase the memory of the abysmal 1978 "The Star Wars Holiday Special". Sure, it is a LEGO animated movie, but it is an all-together very enjoyable foray into the "Star Wars" universe. Well, first of all I must say that I was more than genuinely surprised by how fantastic "The Lego Star Wars Holiday Special" actually turned out to be. I sat down to watch the 2020 "The Lego Star Wars Holiday Special" last evening, and it was with a great deal of reluctance given two factors first, the horror that was the 1978 "The Star Wars Holiday Special" and this being a LEGO animated movie.
