Just because its on Starwars.com doesn't mean that it has to be star wars related. Its just that Lucasfilm doesn't exactly control a big Howard The Duck website, for example, so that is the next best alternative.
Although the idea of the Ewoks movies are intriguing. I think that they are also good possiblities.

It's probably going to be scenes from the OOT, making fun of all the "outdated" special effects.

So it's not going to be the Holiday Special then, apparently, so now the question is...

Why not?

What a perfect opportunity to put the film out (but not really)!

...did all my dreams just come true? Yes. Yes, I think they did. Oh god yes.

EDIT: Looking at the version on Google Video, it's the WMAR broadcast with a stupid crawl at the beginning. There's a DVD circulating of this broadcast, with the original commercials intact, which I have. I can't remember who I got it from. Probably Rikter. I will send it to a couple people for RiffTrax'ing purposes if they send it to others afterward.

I used to be very active on this forum. I’m not really anymore. Sometimes, people still want to get in touch with me about something, and that is great! If that describes you, please email me at [my username]ATgmailDOTcom.

Hi everybody. You’re all awesome. Keep up the good work.

Wow!! And the Rifftrak will be a lot better than anything Cinematic Titanic could have managed. December 10th can't come soon enough!

The best part about this is that they're making a track for a movie that isn't even legally available at present. That's awesome. Now I'm really sure they're just doing it to steal some thunder from Cinematic Titanic.
