I doubt this is true, but I've heard quite a few rumours about a Family Guy movie, possibly going straight to DVD/VHS. Can anybody back this up?

Hm... well, they have the box sets out right now for seasons 1 and 2 I believe, is that what you heard?

No, I heard that they were going to make a movie. It was on a gaming messege board. It's not a very reliable source but I thought I'd make sure.

Fox has reserved the URL to http://familyguymovie.com . People have done research and found that out. So we know that it's something they are taking into consideration. And I am a huge Family Guy fan if you didn't know.

Yeah I also heard that there will be a movie of Family Guy. If there is going to be one I can't wait! Couple of hours of non-stop comedy. Who wouldn't be satisfied. Yeah I got the first box set and will get the second one when it comes out.

Stone Ill

He has a different kind of idiocy actually. You could say that Homer is just stupid and Peter is like Harry Dunne or Lloyd Christmas from Dumb and Dumber.

I don't know but it would awesome indeed. And Chris in the first season really wasn't good in voice wise. But he got a perfect one and kept it for season 2 and 3! Go Seth Green! I Recently watched Rate Race and he is wicked in that movie!

I was watching family guy today and remebered this topic about a possible movie. has there been any new news about a possible movie? I just thought I would post in this topic instead of making a new one. Oh, and can someone post the lyrics to the Family Guy Opening/theme song or whatever?? Thanks

Homer,Peter and Bender in a drinking contest......who would win?!

*ahem* Bender...alcohol fuels his power cells so he would just get more energy from the beer

and plus a simpsons movie is Hit-and-miss

Family Guy is the same, because when you watch a bad episode of family guy....its REALLY bad and when its good its Funny

plus Futurama actually has a storyline that pops in every once in awhile...so bring on Futurama the movie!!!! AROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Mr. Snackpants

08-30-2003, 12:20 AM

I dont have one, but I bet if you check your tv guide youll be able to find out when a rerun is on and watch the beginning. It should be to hard, theyll play the VMAs a million times a day, especially with the Britney-Madonna kiss.

I can't believe anyone likes Crank Yankers. It's total crap. I think I've laughed twice at that show. Now Family Guy...that is a show! I'd also like to know which episode of Family Guy was really bad? I can't think of any. The only one I didn't enjoy too much was the Brian Wallows, Peter Swallows episode where Peter had the bird in his beard. I saw the news about the movie on tvshowsondvd.com. There was a news post about the season box sets and it also had a small interview with Seth (not green) and he talked about the shows new run on Cartoon Network has breathed some air back into the franchise and there are some strong talks of a movie and some talks about the shows return. He also said none of it would happen anytime soon because he's currently busy on another project. Some 3d animated movie about animals or something. It's supposed to be the first rated R 3d animated movie...or maybe it was just animated.

There is NO creativity to the calls on that show.

Yeah Crank Yankers does suck and I also wanted to know which episodes of Family Guy were really bad. As Mike said the episode where the birds are in the beard isn't that good but it still has it's good parts and funny lines. I sure hope they make a movie for Family and maybe new episodes. That would brighten my day even more than Pop Tarts. :lol:

If my memory serves me correctly, Family Guy and Futurama both premered around the same time and co-existed for a couple years.

damnhooligan

09-04-2003, 10:16 PM

The only real redeaming segments of Crank Yankers are the ones with David Allan Grier, where he throws up on the phone. Otherwise, after the second show, it was pretty much the same jokes repeated over and over, with different circumstances.

The Stryker

09-04-2003, 10:55 PM

proving once again that futurama is the only show left with substanceAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!! Futurama was the death of family guy. How can you like it? It killed family guy just be Fox was like "Hey matt, you got any other shows up your sleeve" (not realizing the extreme funniness of Family Guy) and he was like "oh yea futurama" and fox was like "ok we'll take family guy off because you are matt groening and you make us lots of money with your simpsons" (even though family is 30X funnier than the simpsons)
Just my 2 cents......

Wow...before you make a big post basically trashing futurama...CHECK YOUR HISTORY

Futurama actually was premiered BEFORE family guy and the two never competed...well if you count "fox's bastard show"

Fox hated both family guy and futurama...so instead of saying "oh family guy is way better!!!! waaaaahhh!!!! *passes out drunk*" lets just join forces...

Futurama Guy against Fox!!!!!!! :D

Hey! You watch your mouth when talking about Futurama, sucka!

The Stryker

09-08-2003, 10:18 PM

the family guy movie IF it happens is most likely gonna be straight to video
and #1 at the box office?...it would have to be a SLOOOOOOOW day at the box office, its competitions would have to be "From clay to ruben" and "Gigli 2" for it to be #1

and plus....cell animation is basically dead so family guy and futurama wouldn't be really big success stories, and plus you need more then 2 thousand fans to be number one....just saaaaying

as in the case of futurama (BEST GODDAMN ANIMATED SHOW MADE) DXC and Groening are planning a theatrical Movie and if fox permits (big IF) a trilogy wants to be made

so EAT IT family guy

no offense to the family guy fans but once i watch one episode of family guy i cannot watch the same episode again...ever

replay value is really bad on family guy, as in futurama if you watch a episode over you may catch jokes other then the apparent jokes

ok taking all bets!

Zoidberg vs. Quagmire!!!! :evilgrin:

Peanut

09-08-2003, 11:15 PM

Now now Stryker. Just because you like Futurama more doesn't mean you should start kicking a Family Guy renewal in the proverbial groin. While I was never a fan of Futurama and I've seen no more than 10 or 12 episodes, only about 3 or 4 of which were fully, I don't find Futurama to be in the same funny category as Family Guy, and while it's true some of the jokes do go stale rather quickly, (especially when you've got friends who use them over and over in the speech as if they were the words 'the' and 'a') at least the jokes are THERE and they're FUNNY as where at times Futurama's jokes are virtually non-exsistent.

The Stryker

09-08-2003, 11:19 PM

yeah but i will always view family guy as a REALLY dumbed down simpsons

i respect futurama for its accomplisments

has family guy ever won a emmy?...huh? what? nope!

and SMART comedy is more my deal then rapid pase fart jokes and physical mayhem

i have yet to see a episode of family guy where peter doesn't fall off of something

Peanut

09-08-2003, 11:28 PM

That's not totally true. There are very few fart jokes in Family Guy. There's actually just alot of visual gags, most having nothing to do with farts or Peter falling off of something. There are exceptions of course. ("oh boy butter rum's my favorite!") I'd also like to know how Futurama could be called a smart comedy, the whole thing is in the same vain as the Simpsons. That one episode where they find that planet with the small aliens and they start eating them not knowing the planet is a nursery. They use an ape in replacement as that cyclops girl. Lela? Now that's a joke that reeks of Simpsons. If you're calling Futurama a SMART comedy then you're calling the Simpsons a SMART comedy and that is something I cannot agree with under any circumstances.

The Stryker

09-08-2003, 11:39 PM

Simpsons WAS smart comedy

Futurama is Smart comedy mixed with some of the geeky sci-fi flare that alot of people love

the star trek battle them playing during "Claw plaque"

another thing about futurama and the earlier simpsons is the heart involved

i could never care for any of the characters on family guy, everybody in the show is just a running gag

and its true that futurama was always stuck in the simpsons big yellow shadow and its a shame, and the episode you were talking about is called "The problem with popplers" and i don't see the simpsons gene in there anywhere

there was a book called "My problem with popplers" and they basically ripped it for the episode, but the writer for the episode did not steal all the credit for the story and in the opening credits they give the rights to the author

and i hate the simpsons crew right now, all they do is put down their fans and degrade other shows, DXC actually goes to futurama fansites and doesn't try to shut them down

the family guy crew is kinda in the shadows

so thats a united decision...Futurama and Family Guy against simpsons!

for heartfelt futurama episodes please refer to:
"Space Pilot 3000"
"Luck of the Fryish"
"Time Keeps on Slippin'"
"Parasites lost"
"The Why of Fry"
"The devil's hands are idle playthings"

The Stryker

it was nominated but i don't think it won

simpsons always wins for the musical scenes

But that "This House is freakin' sweet" and "Hermes Bureaucrat song" were both nominated and lost :-?

After taking #1 of all Cartoon Network telecasts in in June, the release of the July data shows Futurama's 'A Flight to Remember' as the most watched program on Cartoon Network for that month. Total rating was up from its June 2.4/5 rating record to 2.7/5. Not only that, it also landed #2, #3, #6, #8, #10 and then 10 more in the top 100 list even though it was only on for 3 of the month's weeks. The remaining 4 slots in the top 10 went to Family Guy.
Thanks go to lfv for matching up the data.

EAT IT FOX!!!!! :D :evilgrin:
