  An animated spoof of the movie classic Star Wars. Hilarious, intelligently colorful, and spectacularly created with cool animated special effects. This is most definitely a must-have for 'Family Guy' and 'Star Wars' fans.

  I am a long time, as of 2010 30 years, "Star Wars" collector. Fan of "Family Guy" since the ORIGINAL debut in 1999. I have so been looking forward to this since the "Blue Harvest" episode aired in 2007 & the DVD release said they were going to do the Empire edition. Since Empire is the best of the 6 films. VERY DISAPPOINTED this did NOT air on TV 1st. Should have. Just because it was straight to DVD being able to cuss did NOT mean they should have & did when not necessary. Empire edition is well done but not quite as good as "Blue Harvest". Yoda fell flat. They could have done so much with Yoda. They did NOTHING on how the character speaks. They could have done all sorts of things with that. WE DID NOT NEED JAMES WOODS. You will never look at the Cookie Monster the same way again. I was VERY DISAPPOINTED that they waited until Christmas week to release. Yes, I know for Christmas presents but I did NOT appreciate having to go out to VERY BUSY stores to purchase. We know, from the extras, they will be doing a Jedi edition. I think we know what character choices they have for Meg. Jabba or the Rancor? I did enjoy this Empire edition course getting Back to the Future at the end & Brian was right End of Empire Lando is wearing Han's clothes. DVD package is POOR. No chapter search list. The little flyer in mine was packaged wrong & folded. And, THESE HORRIBLE NEW DVD CASES WITH THE HOLES IN THEM. CHEAP, CHEAP, CHEAP. Good extras on it though.

  Something Dark This Way Comes

  I saw this when it first aired on t.v. just like 80% of the shows fans,that was a joke.Anyway this episode of Family Guy follows "The Empire Strikes Back" film very well in parody form,but some of the jokes are just too old,like when the Imperial Walker falls over and grabs it's knee in pain.Some of the music is straight from the Star Wars soundtrack,with the creators blend of their own music put into it.They even go as far to borrow film from other movies like Rocky IV,even quote lines from the movie "Back to the Future 2" Doc Brown's letter to Marty after the Delorean had been struck by lighting.It's not a bad episode,with minor laughs,memable scenes from Empire Strikes Back film,it should make any Family Guy,and Star Wars fan enjoy.
