DVD Review: Family Guy Presents Blue Harvest
This 2-Disc DVD Set is full of extras, including in the box set a set of trading cards, a T-Shirt depicting the cover art for the DVD and a booklet called The Art of Blue Harvest. The Family Guy episode this DVD is based from is a spoof of Star Wars Episode IV, and it is a hilarious one. Peter Griffin is Han Solo, Chris Griffin is Luke Skywalker, Lois Griffin is Princess Leia, Brian Griffin is Chewbacca, Quagmire is C-3PO, Cleveland is R2-D2, Herbert the Pervert is Obi-Wan Kenobi, Joe is Biggs, Mayor Adam West is Grand Moff Tarkin and Stewie Griffin is Darth Vader. It is an absolutely hilarious spoof episode which has some shots that are taken directly from the original movie, but also some shots which are done in the distinct Family Guy style. It is a combination of regular animation and CGI, and the extras on the DVD are great too, such as Seth McFarlane, the series creator, sitting down and talking to George Lucas (who is a big fan of the show), the making of this episode, a 3-D scene (which comes with special 3-D Glasses) and a look at the episode completely in animatics. This DVD set is definitely worth its price, and highly-recommended. 4 1/2 stars!!!
