"Family Guy: Something, Something...Dark Side" DVD/Blu-ray Talkback (Spoilers)

Actually, McFarlane said in a recent interview that the third special might use American Dad and The Cleavland Show characters. So, there's no reason why they wouldn't.
 
The deal with the sofa (especially the shot of Peter/Han stuck on the ramp hanging onto it as they leave the Death Star) is probably one of my all-time favorite Family Guy gags. :D
 
Can't wait to get it, even though i don't care for the show, this movie has high hopes for me. Two more days and it will arrive at my front door.
 
The joke with the sofa is hilarious because that's exactly how people act when they try to move a piece of heavy furniture like that. A lot of us have been there. I know I have.
 
I got it, and the person who gave it to me said it was really raunchy, but I really didn't think so. She made me think there would be a bunch of nudity. :shrug:

Overall I thought it was good. The R2D2

no no NO NO NOOO! *splash*

gag was hilarious.
 
Everyone, please try to remember spoiler brackets. There are a lot of us that haven't seen this fantastic episode yet, including myself.

I still can't wait to get it with my Christmas money!:D
 
Roger has SO much potential. I could see him as Jabba, the Emperor (Although, he should appear in this one), and every minor character they wanted.
 
You know, 9 minutes in and the Juicy Fruit Gag makes me ask when does it get funny. Why go off on a tangent on Juicy Fruit, did I miss the funny part. And why did Peter/Han take an extra long time to say "on the outside"?

Not Funny.

Title says spoilers, so no tags are needed. :D
 
I've shown this episode to two of my closest friends and the Juicy Fruit sequence got a gigantic laugh from both of them. I just think that direct references to things I remember from my childhood done Family Guy-style are insanely funny. I can't explain why this works or why everyone I know finds this type of gag funny. It's just hilarious.
 
I don't understand the appeal of Blue Harvest. I caught it on [adult swim] and was bored to tears with it.

I'm not exactly a Star Wars fan though, so that may be why. Hopefully this one will be better than Blue Harvest.

I did find Chris and Peter arguing over Family Guy/Robot Chicken at the end funny though..
 
I admit to laughing at the Juicy Fruit part, though it was more a laugh of recognition than anything, like "Hey, I remember that ad!" I doubt the scene will be very humorous upon rewatches because of that. Still, there's enough material in the movie that is funny without saying, "Remember this?" to recommend it.
 
The Rocky Montage got me in, by of course the
actual Rocky 4 scenes with Ivan Drago. I just felt like I want to watch some Rocky 4 though. Rocky 4 is better than this, by far, but we already know that
 
Whuh? Isn't that like comparing apples to oranges?

After my third time watching this I have to say it's really grown on me. Doesn't hurt that Empire is definitely the best of the SW movies. And just as an FYE, the asteroid chase music is probably my all-time favorite piece of SW music.
 
I would give this a three out of five. It got me to laugh at some parts, but I just thought how they tried to use the Back to the Future ending made it a little hard to make sense into it all. Me being a huge BTTF fan, I still didn't find it funny, just felt like they were riding on the endings power.

I bought it, and I am happy to have had the ability to say I enjoyed it.
 
If I have one complaint with the cover art is that they went with profiles of Peter and Lois, which I just don't like. Stewie even points out in "Peter's Progress" how profile views just don't work for these characters. I'm surprised to see them use profile on cover art like this.

Otherwise bring it on!
