How many more decades until the Family Guy Movie?
>>156237064Seth is more invested in Ted
>>156237609he's more invesTED
>>156237064When the show ends. Also Blue Harvest was their Family Guy movie, why try harder when you can just do Star Wars?
what kind of stakes could possibly justify a family guy movie
>>156240322Would need to kick things off with a meta cinema-related plot like South Park did
>>156237064Family Guy has become shock humour schlock, you can't make a movie out of that.
>>156237064There's really nothing to make a movie about with family guy. The problem is that even if you find it funnier than other adult comedies it has always had the worst and flattest characters. Everyone is a conduit for whatever random or edgy humor they are going for in that exact moment

>>156242279 You could easily make a movie about it. Here’s a pitch: you do the opening like normal and it stops when they say on which we used to rely, A voice yells bullshit and there’s a record scratch. The voice comes from famous current celebrity who yells, You don’t actually get a celebrity—you blur out their face and have their hands be pixelated so you can’t even tell the race. Peter explains this to the screen and says that way it’s timeless and you don’t know who he is. Lois chimes in, “Or who she is.” Peter says, “No, Lois, we want people to enjoy this movie. It’s a guy. I don’t know what guy, but it’s a guy.” The topical celebrity goes, “This is the shit I’m talking about—you’re not old-fashioned, you don’t rely on anything but meta humor like that!” The family gasps, and the movie is them trying to find their roots and live up to their name. Then the joke is it’s just the Simpsons formula until they get a cease and desist when Carter tries to put a dome over Quahog. Peter suggests they do America instead. Chris says, “At best we could do the universe.” Peter shouts, “No!” Brian says they could follow a good show like Daria and do a movie about summer camp. Peter looks at Brian and says, “What about All Dogs Go to Heaven?” Brian whimpers, and Stewie says, “What about SpongeBob?”Peter says, “No, that’s stupid,” and then it cuts to Peter dressed as SpongeBob driving a hamburger, laughing, and Stewie dressed as Plankton going, “I hate it here.” The whole movie is just them ripping off other properties and getting cease and desists. It ends with Peter just following the Family Guy formula, yet still gets a cease and desist and it’s Peter getting so mad he punches the lawyer and it’s not a guy it’s the chicken.
>>156242967Cut to fighting the lawyer who was secretly the Chicken the whole time—but instead of giving him a finishing blow, they just make out. And the credits scroll up: “The Family Guy Movie: It was Kinda Gay.” Oh dammit, we could’ve called it Family Gay the movie… You know what, next movie coming out in 2099: Family Guy the Movie 2: Family Gay. Don’t tell Modern Family—wait, do you remember that show? Good, you forgot about it, ’cause we’re original. Then the credits have fake animated bloopers like Pixar used to do.
>>156241038I don't think that would work for Family Guy because of the nature of the shows relationship with television and film. They would be better going with something more earnest. We already got what the ideal Family Guy movie would look like in the Untold Story. For me, it counts the same way the Futurama movie season counted since it was released as a movie in September 2005 and later edited/split in to episodes for broadcast the following May.
>>156237064Seth has mentioned in multiple interviews that he's had the idea for a Family Guy movie for over 15 years but refuses to make it. He said he'll only do it if he produces a consistent stream of "bad" work and will use it as a saving throw to get people to care about him again.
>>156243593my ideal family guy movie would have peter as the main focusi guess stewie and brian do more of the big and ambitious plots in the show but a family guy movie has to have the family guy himself as the main character
