TV Discussion Family Guy: Blue Harvest, Something, Something, Something, Dark Side & It's a Trap!

Seems like they did show a preview for "It's A Trap" at CV after all!

Yes, that is indeed a brilliant no-brainer.

 

Thats pretty clever, but I just can't see Klause doing a good "its a trap!!!!!" with that soft German accent.

 

That is too good!

 

I figured they would have had Tom Tucker and Diane Simmons as Madine and Mon Mothma, but it looks like Mothma is just a generic female.

 

Peter's boss plays Mothma. I think her name is Angela.

And Carrie Fisher voices her.

 

Just saw It's a Trap, it was funnier than the other two.

Conway Twitty again!Damn you Seth. There is an even bigger waste of time in the show though that takes about four minutes, it's kind of brilliant.

There's a funny joke about the Special Edition in there. The opening crawl was probably the best part, try not to have liquid in your mouth during it or you'll spit it out.

 

She was the voice of that sexual harassment worker in the ep where Peter becomes feminine.

 

How did you get to see it so early? Did it air on TV? I currently don't live in the U.S., so I'm guessing it aired only for an American TV network.

 

Yikes. Better than Something, Something, Something which kinda sucked but still not not all that funny. Laughed at a couple parts.

Robot Chicken 2
Family Guy 1

 

Is there a giant chicken fight? If not, I'm not buying it.

 

I just finished watching and I must say, there were several parts that had me laughing! But there were a few dragged out parts that just had me thinking "Alright.. we get it.."

Better then SSSDS IMO

 

Pie Fighters? Really? I think Hardware Wars did this gag back in 1980 Seth. Sweet Jesus.

 

Here's the trailer:

 

Don't buy it then. Unless there's a special cut in the DVD

 

Are you kidding me? They made such a big bloody deal over Ernie being Boba Fett, and then they don't use him at all!?

 

Rather than have an epic fight they made fun of the fact that Fett in the films went out like a total punk the moment he stepped into action.

 

Well, that was pretty weak. I can't really give my final word on this latest installment cause I fell asleep halfway through it, but I guess that can't be a great endorsement of it, can it?

For the part I was awake to, I don't think I even grinned or smirked once. Jokes were falling flat, looong stretches of simple re-enactment of the movie without any real parody. Lots of jokes about body cavities... I guess the opening crawl was really being absolutely sincere with this paragraph:

 

Some of the jokes in It's A Trap do drag on for a bit too long. Overall its an ok parody, I mean its just Family Guy after all.

 

About the only thing I laughed at was Han/Peter's attempts to darken the movie up by making the Imperial troops dig their own graves outside the bunker entrance.

 

Agreed.

 

It was really really funny especially that part where Peter makes the troopers dig their own graves. Overall I thought it was too mean-spirited. It was almost like the RLM prequel reviews. But yeah, waaay better than SSSDS. I wouldn't buy it or watch it more than once, but I appreciate a cheap laugh and this one had plenty. Oh and a good portion of the jokes will only make sense to fans of Family Guy and American Dad.

 

I enjoyed this more than SSSDS. Laughed out loud quite a few times. A slight smattering of f-bombs, but it's not as pointless as in its predecessor. I liked the part with Luke and Vader in the DS2 hangar at the end
I think Blue Harvest set the bar too high. But then, SSSDS set it so low again that I enjoyed this.

I know, it's hardly a glowing assessment, but if you enjoyed the other two, you'll enjoy this. If you didn't enjoy the others, then I don't expect you to be watching this in the first place
