JUDGE DREDD writes: on Jan 14 2008 05:23 PM That FAMILY GUY )Blue Harvest. Was awsome! Maybe not the funniest of all family guy episodes, but it was extremely well made, and captures the entire of Star Wars a new hope PERFECTLY! Bit lame on some gags, but it did have a few side splitting moments. Way better than the Simpsons movie IMO. That creepy old man that played Obi Wan, stole the show. I just hope, they make Empire, Jedi, and even the prequels this way. In fact i think the prequels films would work best with Family-Guy. Fingers crossed. (Reply to this) |

JUDGE DREDD writes: on Jan 14 2008 05:26 PM In reply to this comment (#1469168) Yep, blue harvest was the undercover title for it. Just like, Batman begins working title was "Rorys first Kiss." The Dark Knight has one too i think, but i forgot what its called. (Reply to this) |

Mr. Bowler writes: on Jan 14 2008 05:29 PM It was nice to see a good Family Guy episode like Blue Harvest after the average episodes. No offense, I like Family Guy, but they have just sacrificed good jokes with rapid fire jokes. (Reply to this) |

(Okay. I'm done. And now I'm going to go watch some movies...including the *real* 'Blue Harvest'.) :) (Reply to this) |

CoUcH ToMaToE DoUgIe writes: on Jan 15 2008 12:59 AM not i, jeremyd4! to be honest, the robot chicken star wars spoof was better than the family guy renendering. to be fair the show has lost some of its luster lately but its still better than so much of the crap on t.v. Also, who here who watch the blue harvest episode was pissed with the scene when they insulted the brilliant danny elfman by killing him after he replaced john williams. i mean i know how legendary john williams is, but c'mon family guy, who the hell doesn't respect and love danny elfman's career? That's a BIG problem with Family Guy, Just because you can insult anybody doesn't mean you should, m'kay;) (Reply to this) |

rustdog writes: on Jan 15 2008 05:01 AM The Naked Prey is an awesome movie. If you like old school survival action you should check it out. There are some torture scenes in it I'm still not sure how they filmed. (Reply to this) |
