In no universe is The Holiday Special better than the prequels. The prequels aren’t very good, but The Holiday Special is just the worst. At least the prequels had a story, as botched as it is.
Wrong. The Holiday Special has some fun moments, the PT has some “that’s kinda cool I guess” moments at best. I’ll take Han making a Stormtrooper fall off a balcony over just about any PT scene any day.
