What a waste of my time!!!

Excellent, a Must See

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Blistering performances.

Revisiting this classic after so many years, strange to say but it is a little dated. But still, it holds up. Definitely one of better Star Wars parody out there. I believe this was made back during the height of Family Guy's run. I saw an episode of Family Guy a few weeks ago and it is not as funny as it used to be when comparing it to a decade ago. Anyway, this is worth checking out if you are a Star Wars fan. I thought this was a solo, stand alone film but appertaining this is officially part of the TV show series. Good to know. It is always nice having useless information like that flouting around in my head. Needless to say this generation is doomed. And this end my review.

Han Solo is in an extremely dangerous mission, helping Luke Skywalker to save the Princess Leia. He must deal with many Stormtroopers and at the very same time, he is trying to steal a couch that he found in the garbage.That's just one of the many hilarious situations that we can find in this unique version of "Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope". "Family Guy" is just one of my favourites shows and although I haven't watch all the episodes I'm related to must of the secondary characters knowing their behaviour and how they are related to the Griffin family. I said that because in this special episode most of the main characters of the "Star Wars" universe are represented by most of the main characters of "Family Guy": Chris is Luke Skywalker, Peter is Han Solo, Brian is Chewbacca, Lois is Leia, Quagmire is C-3PO, Cleveland is R2-D2 and Stewie is Darth Vader. But Obi-Wan Kenobi is represented by Herbert, a pedophile who loves Chris. This character is not very important in the show but is just hilarious to see a Kenobi who's "inspiration" is Luke.Well all the characters are just like in the show and the gags are hilarious, making funny of Lucas and pals. Another thing that I really like is that the animation, when is pure "Star Wars", is really great and the explosions too.Conclusion: I think that if you love "Family Guy" but you don't know a lot of the "Star Wars" universe (only if you're a child because every adult most know about it) you will love this special tribute/parody but if you're a big fan of "Star Wars" but you don't know/like "Family Guy" (like in the case of my father) you won't, probably, laugh as I did so I recommend that you first check some episodes and if you like them (I'm pretty sure you will) then check this special episode. Of course if you love both (like me) you probably have already checked it.Region 4 DVD: the single disc edition is great. It has a lot of extras but my favourites are the interview made by Seth MacFarlane to George Lucas, a feature with the references to "Star Wars" from the show and the hilarious introduction to the episode. Also contains one complete episode of the show, "North by North Quahog", that is just hilarious.

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.
