InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Celia A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
Staci Frederick Blistering performances.
Jackson Booth-Millard In Britain this two-part Family Guy special, celebrating the 30 year anniversary of the first in the Star Wars Trilogy, was released separately (not in a season box set), and what a special it is. When the TV stops working, the Griffin family: Lois (Alex Borstein), Stewie (MacFarlane), Chris (Seth Green) and Meg (Mila Kunis); listen to Peter (Seth MacFarlane) tell the story of Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, and this is when the story sees the fantastic spoof of the first great movie. You probably know the story: R2-D2 (Cleveland, voiced by Mike Henry) and C-3PO (Quagmire, voiced by MacFarlane) escape an attacked ship. Princess Leia (Lois) is kidnapped by Darth Vader (Stewie) and Governor Tarkin (Adam West). Luke Skywalker (Chris) dreams of leaving home, and when his Uncle Owen (Lois's dad, voiced by MacFarlane) and Aunt Beru (Lois's mum, voiced by Borstein) are killed by stormtroopers, Obi-Won Kenobi (Herbert the old paedophile, voiced by Henry) takes him to become a Jedi, and get off the planet with the help of Han Solo (Peter) and Chewbacca (Brian, voiced by MacFarlane) in the Millennium Falcon. Obviously they go on the Death Star, Obi-Won is killed by Vader, and the Rebels get together against the Empire to destroy the space station. Oh, and Meg by the way is the creature in the garbage shoot. Phew! Also starring MacFarlane as Tom Tucker, Lori Alan as Diane Simmons, Chevy Chase as Clark Griswold, Beverly D'Angelo as Ellen Griswold, Mick Hucknall, Phil LaMarr as Ollie Williams and Patrick Warburton as Joe Swanson. For anyone that doesn't know (apart from maybe the mega Star Wars fanatics), Blue Harvest was the fake working title for Return of the Jedi. The jokes, including a mock of Dirty Dancing's "I've Had the Time of My Life", the music of John Williams (and Danny Elfman), quotes in the film, and some cool animated effects, this is an essential spoof for any fan of Star Wars and/or Family Guy. Very good!
oliver simpson i think that this is one of the best things the family guy team have done they have done good with this but i feel they were disrespectful to star wars in some ways for example they replaced many of the best and funniest jokes with humourless and tasteless jokes which annoyed me because the quotes are what i loved about the original trilogy i hated the way stewie portrayed darthvader making him stupid and rubbish in my view very disrespectful to the real Darth Vader who in my view is one of the best movie villains of all time and stewies Vader was far from the evil Vader we know and love i liked Chris a Luke funny and acting exactly , like Luke did in the films the same for peter as Han, loris as Leia, Brian as chewbacca and Hebert as obi wan was my favourite character out of the episode funny as hell plus the other characters were good as well and another criticism of the episode is that they mixed up some of the scenes as star war fans will notice but in my view a funny and great episode of family guy
rodgercolmar fan of Family Guy? the first Star Wars? well then, you are in for a treat - the one liners are gold, the characters are priceless - R2D2 getting high "I could really go for some Tatooine, Wind and Fire right now" takes a sec, but every laugh is a great laugh - well done guys!!watch it at any cost, and enjoycheck out the credits too, the 'Red Leaders' are listed - Mick Hucknell said his one line and was outRed Ochtobah, shtanding by = pricelessall in all, you will all have a pile of lines as your msn tags after watching this - mcfarlane at his best so far
glenn_rogers-com Hi, I wanted to comment on the season premiere of the Family Guy. Wow, what an episode. Not to give too much away, any fan of the show will love this episode. I thought the animation was first rate. It reminded me of the animation of the Simpsons movie. Some scenes were pretty much third dimensional. I liked the shots of the planets and of the spaceships. Also, it was a pretty accurate take off of the first Star Wars movie, which I saw as a kid. I was wondering who going to play Obi Wan Kenobi and I was right on my guess, the old man pervert, and Stewie as Darth Vader was hilarious too. I did notice that Meg wasn't involved though. Also, I liked the Robot Chicken conversation at the end, with Chris and Peter arguing about it. That's an in joke, because Seth Green is a creator of Robot Chicken and he is the voice of Chris. I would say that was Family Guy at it's best last night. There are so many bad shows on TV nowadays, it's great to see there is some good shows left that actually believe in good and creative writing and film-making. I am so glad that shows like Simpsons, Family Guy and South Park are still around. They are a ray of hope in a vast wasteland of mediocrity, bad acting and writing. God, Simpsons has been on for 18 years and I still get laughs out of it.
