Uhhhh...Roy Kinnear?

It wasn't as bad as the Star Wars Holiday Special. I give it a 6 for the sheer novelty of it. In terms of technical achievement, it's head and shoulders above that piece of swill. But what really interests me is how the HELL could Roy Kinnear have been it when he DIED a decade before?!?!?! Incidentally, this is the only time you will see R2D2 actually being played, meaning human operator inside, by someone other than Kenny Baker. I know, I know they claim that never happened, but I've seen the photos. Lot of canned footage of course, including some effects made for Return of the Jedi but never used. The voice of Darth Vader is not James Earl Jones...no surprise there. It's hard to believe that the merchandise made for this movie ever made it into stores, but it did.
