Ok, its not really a movie(hence the 1/2) but I did rent the DVD of the Family Guy Star Wars Parody. It comes with a bevy of additional features. If you want to see Family Guy Creator, Seth McFarlane, fawn all over George Lucas or if you are wondering what the Blue Harvest subtitle is all about check these out.

Otherwise, this is a level above what you normally see when a bunch of super fans, no matter how talented, attempt to do a tribute episode to source material for which they have great affection. Not sure what I mean, Check out Howard The Duck, a 1980's super bomb where Mr. Lucus was the superfan most culpable.

Here, however, the jokes are crisp and come quickly. The show that has made it's mark holding a fun house mirror up to pop culture is in its element here. Many celebrity targets take a hit here but none a solidly as Danny Elfman(Let's face it he has been asking for it). All in all, this is definitly worth the time if you didn't check the episode when it originally aired. If you did, have no fear, apparently this was such a hit at Skywalker Ranch that follow up parodies of Empire and Jedi are on the slate.
