Yah, that’s what I was saying, it seems like they’re running out of ideas… Soon they’ll be completely not creative and they will rely on repetition, stupid random pop culture references, and nothing but dirty jokes to get their laughs… In other words, they’ll be like Family Guy, LOL!

It’s a shame most of those quotes are from the much superior earlier seasons. I really hate the newer episodes, everything from season 9 onwards was disappointing.

Despite the rather disappointing recent few seasons of The Simpsons, they had some of the smartest jokes I’ve seen in any cartoon. Where else would you hear lines like:
Homer: “Lisa, in this house we obey the laws of thermodynamics!”
Burns: “Damn it, Smithers, this isn’t rocket science; it’s brain surgery!”
Homer: “I’m normally not a praying man, but if you’re up there, please save me Superman!”
Homer: “Please don’t eat me! I have a wife and kids. Eat them!”
Ralph Wiggum: “Me fail English? That’s unpossible.”
Willie: “Bonjour, you cheese-eating surrender-monkeys!”
Comic Book Guy: “Your questions have become more redundant and annoying than the last three Highlander movies.”

And who can forget this:

LMAO!!

Ok, I’ll stop promoting Simpsons now, they’re not paying me afterall, lol.

Why fans lobbied to resurrect it after it was canceled is beyond me – particularly when shows like Arrested Development and Futurama were cancelled around the same time.

I admit that Family Guy has its moments, but I look at it like a string Farside cartoons held together by plots that have nothing to do with the parodied scenes. At least parodies within The Simpsons are part of the plot of the episodes and not flashbacks “like the time…. [insert parody]“. Lame.

Sorry, bit of a rant.

And Michael Bay and M Night Shayayamalanananan are both equally crappy, except Bay is more of a crappy action movie director while M Night is a crappy wannabe creepy movie director. They BOTH suck… But I guess I need to have good taste to appreciate a movie that tries way too hard to overdramatize every line spoken by every character throughout the entire movie that has a completely incoherent plot…

Oh yes, let’s fight aliens that die from water who invaded a planet that’s 70% water and even has moisture in the air, or let’s run away from the killer trees, lol. Man, come to think of it, his movies are more hilarious than Family Guy can ever wish to be. Only problem is that he never intended it that way…

You know they have persmission from George Lucas to do this, so if he finds it funny…

What you have to recognize is that “Star Wars” needs parodies. People have to find the funny.

I know that my friends and I have talked about these movies and their themes and the characters and the plots and the story lines, but when Aunt Beru yelled to Luke to calm down and have some blue milk, we all lost it. BLUE MILK! Still gets me.

Guess you just can’t account for taste.

But yeah, I get what you mean. I did really love Family Guy before, but don’t much like the newer stuff. I’ll likely buy this Star Wars special, but I refrained from buying the newest Box set because I just wasn’t that interested.

Coming up with a new story with Star Wars references, like Space Balls, instead of just rehashing the whole movie with stupid toilet jokes here and there would require some level of creativity. This is Family Guy we’re talking about remember? You’re expectations are far too high…

If this continues future generations will look at the Star Wars franchise as comedy to be laughed at,,,

(I’m serious)
