Too much of everything

Boring

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

If you want to see Star Wars done in Family Guy animation, and for it to only last about forty- five minutes, this is for you. If you want to laugh, well you're out of luck! All the good bits are used in the TV commercial for it. Basically the line about Stewie's diapers having gone over to the Dark Side. That's about it.I'm not sure why it turned out being so laughless. Maybe they wanted to be as faithful to the original as they could, and thus didn't concentrate enough on the point of making a spoof. Perhaps also by abandoning their joke format from the show, where there's so many "remember that time?" non sequiturs, in favor of actually having a plot they were held to, they were working outside their comfort zone. Who knows?There's also the disturbing fact that Rush Limbaugh was employed, and presumably paid, to contribute his voice to this. That man shouldn't be getting paid for anything.My first thought upon renting this and finding out that it wasn't feature length was that I had been ripped off, but instead I felt relieved I had only wasted half the time (I still wish I hadn't paid to see it, though).

This was nothing short of TV gold.Every once in awhile I see something on television that is pure magic from start to finish, and this particular show was one of them...This episode was an homage to the film, and even though they "Family-Guy'ed" it with their edgy humour, it was still a brilliant piece of work, with some of the scenes being almost shot-for-shot from the movie. It is obvious that Seth MacFarlane and the rest of the creators are die-hard Star Wars fans.And it was neat to see they went with the original version, not the George Lucas-ized, Greedo-shoots-first version.

IMHO, Family Guy just keeps getting better and better with each episode..Last night, I watched this episode, and it just kept topping itself as it went along.I am glad that Lucas has the good humour to allow this and the Robot Chicken Star Wars episode to be made during this 30th anniversary of his movie. I'll have to go back and watch this again with some friends of mine just to see their reaction.I can't wait to see what the rest of this season is going to bring us.. or will the creators of the show push it too far again and get canceled?

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.
