I am not a fan of the Family Guy series, actually I have never even sat through a whole episode. Just watched fragments of it while zapping around on the TV. However, this movie was such a treat.Being a huge "Star Wars" fan, I decided to watch it, based on the cover alone. It is always fun to watch a spoof of something. And this movie delivered. I was laughing a lot throughout the length of the movie.Now, without having seen the series, it is impossible for me to say whether or not this movie lives up to the comedy standards of the series. But without having seen them, I can honestly say that this movie is great. Loads of laughs here.Remember this is a spoof, do not watch this if you get offended or angry by something making fun of the "Star Wars" franchise.I had a blast watching this, and I think it definitely have enough punch in it for a second watching later on. It is just that unique and funny. This animation picks up the "Star Wars" story and beats it with a funny stick.

This Family Guy movie is "just as funny" as the first one- Blue Moon. A couple of my favorite moments were the scene where Vader (Stewie) captures Peter and tells him that he will torture him! Peter says, "oh well, I don't won't to get tortured".. then he tells all of the secrets to vader "Luke is training on Dagobah, the rebel base is on Hoth, and I was the one who stopped up the toilet!" Then Vader tortures him anyway-- by forcing him to listen to some crappy 80's music-- Peter yells and hollers, then finally, he says owww, owww, owww...Funny stuff... Also, the radio talk, where he tells the guys to call him "Carlos Spicy weiner." One of the best scenes (this is totally an inside joke to the average "Star Wars Fanatic" is when Luke is about to climb in the X-Wing fighter and his co-pilot "Dax" says .."I feel like I can take on the whole empire!" and Luke tells everyone-- "Hey guys, Dax says he gots this one."....And Dax flies out into space and faces 20 Star Destroyers....and gets blown up!!!....That was hilarious...Ohh one more comment...When they freeze Peter in the carbon, and they are leaving, C-3po makes a comment "Since we know exactly where they are going, lets take 3 years to rescue him)--sweet...all inside jokes..And the last one is the comment where Lando is wearing Hans clothes at the end of the movie....Funny as heck..... What do you think??

So I'll pretty much repeat what many others have said in these reviews. In comparison to Blue Harvest (the first Star Wars Family Guy parody), this is actually quite bad.The plot basically plays out exactly like The Empire Strikes Back, expect shorter, and with Family Guy characters, and with some jokes thrown in that really aren't all that funny...sure there are some "ha ha" moments, but when I saw Blue Harvest, I was rolling on the floor and my sides were splitting with laughter. Every scene was set up perfectly, and the jokes just kept on a-rollin'. It was (and is) a classic. This sequel feels like a rush job and it feels like there is little enthusiasm, much like the most recent seasons of Family Guy. Either the writers have changed, or they've run out of steam, kinda like Led Zeppelin near the end.I bought this on BluRay and paid way too much for it. Don't waste your money. Get it on iTunes if you can...or rent it.

I had very high hopes for this episode, given the wonderful job Seth and the team did with Blue Harvest. Unfortunately, the seem to have lost sight of what they were doing and ended up with a product that felt rushed, and wasn't funny at all.The first Star Wars Family Guy episode was for dedicated Star Wars geeks who enjoyed pointing out inconsistencies or flaws in Lucas' film. The gags in Blue Harvest were funny and relevant, from Stewie's questioning about the meter-wide exhaust port being a big flaw to Herbert's portrayal of Obi-Wan. The jokes were funny, because they lovingly picked on the original story.The new episode isn't like that. Instead, you get what feels like The Empire Strikes Back done with Family Guy characters, with minimal changes to dialogue. The jokes are weirdly out of place, many just aren't funny at all, and they lack to satirical quality the jokes in Blue Harvest had. You get lames jokes like a guy on Hoth trying to give out bags of ice, or Peter inexplicably punching out Lois when she calls him a nerf-herder, claiming "that's our word." In short, this episode goes for shock effect to get it's gags - either from random violence and swearing to just out of place jokes - instead of good old satire like Blue Harvest did.I hope the next will be better; God knows Lucas had enough bad material in Jedi for Seth and the team to work with, without resorting to mindless and out of place jokes to get laughs.
