Product Description

Holy ship! The Family Guy empire strikes back with another hilarious parody of your favourite sci-fi saga. May the laughs be with you as Skywalker (Chris Griffin) joins forces with Solo (Peter) and Princess Leia (Lois) to battle Vader (Stewie) amd his imperial minions. A host of new characters come along for the wild ride, including Mort Goldman as Lando Calrissian, Chris's boss Carl as Yoda and the giant chicken as the nefarious Boba Fett. It's an outrageous out-of-this-world experience you'll "saber" for light years to come.

3.0 out of 5 stars The difficult second film... 31 Dec 2009
Format:DVD
It was always going to be tough to live up to Blue Harvest, the Family Guy spoof of Star Wars Episode IV, and unfortunately this spoof of The Empire Strikes Back didn't quite do it for me. I like Family Guy a lot and actually got into it after catching Blue Harvest whilst flicking channels on the tv, and the rest is history.

Dark Side follows on from Blue Harvest at a fast pace, starting on Hoth. I felt there were, as another reviewer states, a few too many cut-away scenes that seem to be a bit too in-jokey and will appeal to American audiences and not other viewers as they refer to obviously American things, like Juicy Fruit ads. I felt it also lacked a bit of the really sharp observations we saw in Blue Harvest, such as the Death Star guys complaining they don't have a rail etc.

Bits that are a success are of course the faithful story-telling of The Empire Strikes Back, which shows the Family Guy team are obviously huge huge Star Wars fans, as I am, and the animation (done by rendering) is a joy to watch. There are a few little observations which I did enjoy, the way characters say their lines which were memorable from the original ("Good. Our first catch of the day.") etc.

Overall, this is average at best, and I'm sad to say lost my interest halfway through. It is still worth watching though if you're a fan, and I will of course watch if there is a version of Return of the Jedi. If you liked Blue Harvest, and if you haven't already, watch the Robot Chicken version. The bit with Admiral Ackbar on the quiz show is hilarious.

4.0 out of 5 stars OK but not as good as blue harvest. 29 Dec 2009
Format:Blu-ray
Ok first things first in HD i must admit it looks very good with all the colours being very sharp and crisp and the attention to detail in some of the scenes with the large cruisers is astonishing, so as far as the blu-ray goes it's great.
The movie itself is disapointing on the whole, there are a lot of jokes which have already been used, and there were plenty of pieces which in my opinion they could have made a lot funnier, but there are some truely hilarious moments but it just feels like they are too infrequent for what i was expecting. I would recommend you rent this from somewhere as opposed to actually buying it, becuase its not the kind of thing i think you will want to watch more than once or twice.

3.0 out of 5 stars Something something something isn't right... 15 Mar 2010
Format:DVD
Family Guy Presents Blue Harvest [DVD] [2007] was a brilliantly funny parody of Star Wars IV: A New Hope [DVD] [1977] [Region 1] [NTSC] and had me laughing practically all the way through. Needless to say I was excited to hear about McFarlane's next release, Something Something Something Darkside.

Honestly, the opening credits were the funniest part for me, and the rest was merely season 7 recycled; same gags, same old. The volume of unoriginal content really dampened the laughs from start to finish, leaving me rather disappointed. Moreover, the cut-aways are almost entirely exclusive to American audiences, and make little sense over here in the UK, making me suspect that they're merely compensation for a lack of primary plot material. The crown jewel in the humour department for Blue Harvest had to be the subtle mockery of the original storyline components of A New Hope, and they tried it again this time around, only it wasn't as funny.

Plot-wise, Dark Side is fun to follow and made for an enjoyable watch, but I don't think they quite hit the mark in terms of sharp, fast, consistent humour as they did so gloriously in their last offering. As a Family Guy fan I do recommend this DVD as it is good at the core, but don't raise your hopes too high on this one.

The first part of this 3-mini-film series, Blue Harvest, is where all the effort and ingenuity lies. It would have been better as a one-off, full of sideways humour. Read more
