Return to the Grffins' version of that galaxy far, far away as their freakin' sweet saga continues with Family Guy: It's A Trap! - arriving exclusively on Blu-ray and DVD December 21 from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment. In the third installment of the hilarious Star Wars satire - following 2005's Family Guy: Blue Harvest and last year's Family Guy: Something, Something, Something Darkside Blu-ray - the Griffins reprise their intergalactic roles in an outrageous retelling of Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi.
Fans received an early peak of the epic farce at San Diego Comic-Con as Seth MacFarlane previewed 10 minutes of Family Guy: It's A Trap! during the Family Guy panel this past weekend.
In this spectacular and offensively uproarious final chapter, Luke Skywalker (Chris) and Princess Leia (Lois) must travel to Tatooine to free Han Solo (Peter) by infiltrating the wretched stronghold of Jabba the Hutt (Joe), the galaxy's most loathsome and dreadful gangster. Once reunited, the Rebels team up with a tribe of Ewoks to combat the Imperial forces on the forest moon of Endor. Meanwhile the Emperor (Carter Pewterschmidt) and Darth Vader (Stewie) conspire to turn Luke to the dark side, and young Skywalker is determined to rekindle the spirit of the Jedi within his father. The Galactic Civil War has never been more outrageous, as the Rebel forces gather to attack the seemingly defenseless and incomplete second Death Star in the battle that will determine the fate of the galaxy.
Adding to the fun, Family Guy: It's A Trap! is loaded with hysterical cameo voice spots - including Patrick Stewart and Michael Dorn reprising their roles from Star Trek: The Next Generation, Adam West (Batman), Carrie Fisher (Star Wars Trilogy) and conservative talk radio juggernaut Rush Limbaugh as the voice of the large carnivorous reptomammal, the Rancor.
"The fan base for "Family Guy" and Star Wars, both enthusiastic, have embraced the first two hilarious spoofs," said Mike Dunn, President, Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment. "Bringing the distinctive storylines together for the trilogy of parodies has been enormously successful and lends itself to create unique home entertainment releases."
As an added bonus, Family Guy: It's A Trap! will also be available in Blu-ray and DVD triple-packs featuring all the "Family Guy" Star Wars spoofs...the perfect gift for the holiday season.
Family Guy episode 9.19, "Episode VI: It’s a Trap" stars Seth MacFarlane, Alex Borstein, Seth Green, Mila Kunis, Mike Henry, Dee Bradley Baker, H. Jon Benjamin, John G. Brennan and is directed by Peter Shin.

eh.... blue harvest was great, but something, something, was not as good, but there is soooo much more to make fun in return of the jedi so this might be a good one to watch.

I've got respect for people who can make fun of themselves from time to time. Rush can almost be a little too right wing for me, but I mostly agree with his politics. I like that he has a healthy sense of humor though :)

There was a whole episode centered around Limbaugh 2wks ago where he and the ultra-liberal Brian become best friends via Brian's need to always be on the opposite side of the fence from everybody else. And Rush kicked ass in the episode too. Really great that he'd do that, allowing himself to be semi-mocked on a totally left leaning show. Seth Macfarlane said on the "Blue Harvest" commentary that RL is actually a very regular guy in person outside of the radio show. But he made sure to say that he disagrees with practically everything he says. ;)

Whether you like Limbaugh or not(I don't care either way. No strong opinion of him), you got to respect the fact that he's at least willing to let himself be the butt of Family Guy jokes. I doubt others, both conservative and liberal, would be willing to do the same.
