Family Guy Movie Plods On



Posted by on 05. 05. 2008in News Chat

QuagmireSeth McFarlane continues to work on a Family Guy feature film; we get an update of the picture’s progress today thanks to moviehole:

Buried in a story about McFarlane’s new financially-pleasing deal with the network is the following:

“Beyond that, MacFarlane said he’d like to continue expanding his Fuzzy Door shingle to include multiple skeins and feature projects. And that includes a long-rumored “Family Guy” movie, which MacFarlane would like to produce in the next few years. There’s no firm plan yet, although any feature will likely center on homicidal toddler Stewie, he said.”

This should be welcome news for Family Guy fans. Sadly there is no concrete timeline or release date but “a few years” is not a bad amount of time to wait. It’s certainly better than no time frame at all. I will watch the Family Guy once and a while, I like some of the individual jokes in the show more than the show itself.

I would like to see a movie based around the FBI seizing Quagmire’s computer, and subsequent sentencing of 340 years for objectionable materials.

Would you guys like to see a Family Guy film in theaters, do you prefer it as a TV show, or would you prefer if you never saw it again?

    i am a fan of the show, but i wouldnt want it to be turned into a movie. i dont want to see 90 minutes of “its like that time when i _____” and then see a random clip

    I love Family Guy, but I would rather just have the direct to DVD short films like Stewie Griffin: The Untold Story….going to the theaters for 90mins of Family Guy doesn’t excite me. It would have to be a REALLY good co-herent story. As it is now the actual storyline of an episode is maybe 12minutes long with a bunch of random fillers tossed in. I also don’t think I could take 90mins of Peter’s stupidity….it hurts my head too much.

    I’d just rather have the DVD, but I have no objection to a full length movie.

    Except for one or two good episodes now and then, Family Guy really sucks nowadays. If they start working on a movie, I guess the tv show will become even more crappy than usual.
