Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

I'm glad I passed on the Blu-ray of the second installment when it was on sale for $10 recently. I'll be getting the trilogy set eventually.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

Im picking up the blu trilogy set. Glad I got the second one for only $10 so I dont feel bad giving it to my nephew since he doesnt have it.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

The first one was never released on Blu-ray... I'm curious to see how it'll look. I might pick up the trilogy, then.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

First one only available in the Trilogy set? Fuck Fox. Way to show the fans who bought the second one on BD goodwill.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

You trusted Fox after all these years?

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

For me, these are just fine in SD. Got the first two for around $5 each. Will get this one for same. Not everything has to be on Blu.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

In general I would say most animation looks fine on regular DVD and Blu-Ray does little to improve it.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

Where was it said that Fox is releasing the original only in a boxset?

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

I am in this boat. There are a few things that i just don't feel the need to upgrade to Blu. Family Guy, South Park and The Simpsons TV episodes are fine on DVD for me, I don't watch them much anyways and I have them in a special collection anyways. I also passed on the Seth McFarlane's Calvacade on Blu. I just got the DVD and threw it in with a Family Guy volume. Seems more like deleted fantasy stuff from Family Guy anyways and I needed shelf space. The only TV shows that I plan on buying on BR that are not available on all seasons are Supernatural & Smallville.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

Will this be in full 16x9 HD or will it still be in 1.33:1 ratio?

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

1.33. It was not filmed in 16x9....I'l n'existe pas.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

Then I'll just stick with getting it on dvd.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

I thought the second one was a complete disappointment. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the second installment was not aired on TV? I'm assuming this one won't air either. I'll just end up watching it on Youtube or something, I'm not gonna waste my money.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

The second installment was this past season finale. I'm assuming that this one will be too for the upcoming season.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

Yea, it finally aired, but long after the DVD was released. Probably the same strategy here. And yes, the second one did suck.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

Actually, Something... Darkside aired in May, about 5 months after it was released on home video. They'll most likely do the same thing with this one.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

I completely missed it I guess. Huh, I'll just DVR this episode then instead of buying it.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

Apparently, there is a triple pack containing the entire Star Wars spoofs that is going to be released the same day too.

SSSDS kinda missed a lot of opportunities for meta jokes in my opinion. Like the training sequence on Degobah. They intercut it with some boxing movie montage, which is kinda amusing, but a smarter joke (with Seth is occasionally capable of doing) would have been a comment on exactly how long Luke was there, or where did he learn to use the lightsaber well enough to hold off Vader for as long as he did? (The comic adaptation shows some lightsaber training scenes, but they were obviously not in the final movie).

I don't bother with buying FG seasons on DVD, but I'll likely buy this triple pack since it's kind of a unique thing.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

some boxing movie?

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

The interesting thing about It's A Trap! is that it's the last Family Guy episode produced in 4X3. When the show comes back in the fall it will be 16X9. So really it's the end of an era for the show.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

Yea, and it's about freakin' time. Welcome to 2010, Seth MacFaaalan.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

I'm in for the trilogy box set. I only have Blue Harvest on DVD; haven't bought Something, Something, Something Dark Side thinking such a boxed collection might be in the offing. And it's been a while since I got the small thrill of buying a Star Wars boxed set. I might even go the full distance and go out for this at midnight, just for old times' sake.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

So the dvd came in at work for this and I checked out the back of the package and it says its 1.78:1 Widescreen, so i guess I'll try and find the bluray at a reasonable price. Even though I bought the first two on dvd.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

It's definitely 16x9.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

wide screen, watched it last nite. Was funny but not as funny as the first two.

They pretty much jokingly said they where phoning it in during the opening scroll.

Laugh It Up, Fuzzball: The Family Guy Trilogy Blu-ray cover art:

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

I just watched a bit of Blue Harvest from the BD Trilogy...

I don't have any way of taking captures, but just to my naked eyes, it looks exactly like the DVD version. Pretty sure it's just been upscaled and slapped onto a BD. It looks fuzzy and has some artifacts around the edges. It definitely doesn't look anything like the other two.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

I believe Blue Harvest was made before Seth and company started rendering and exporting HD masters; but I could be mistaken.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

I don't know. The second one came before the regular episodes showed up in HD and it is definitely HD, though in full-frame.

In any case, the box says it's HD, so it should either be in HD or the box should disclose that it's not really HD. The only things in HD are the FBI warning, 20th Century Fox title, etc. The menus and actual content are garbage.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

I don't know if its exclusive or not, but Walmart has this in a bluray/dvd combo pack. I was going to just buy the dvd but bluray set was only $5.00 more.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

Not exclusive, saw a combo pack at Target this evening.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

Was the Blu-ray advertised as a Combo Pack? I had no idea. I bought both the Blu-ray trilogy and the standard DVD because I wanted to complete my DVD trilogy. If I knew the Blu-ray came with the DVD I would have waited. I mainly wanted the DVD so I could bring it home over the holidays. :/

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

Blu-ray trilogy was sold out at 3 different stores I went to last night. Meh....

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

BB had only about 3 copies of the trilogy set at 8am when they opened yesterday. Glad I picked that up.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

Best Buy had a bunch this afternoon when I went. Nice looking set, but 3 of the 6 discs in my set were loose and scratched. Going to exchange it in the morning. Anyone else have trouble with this set?

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

I had no idea they came with Digital Copies. To eBay they go!

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

I didn't check the price, but BJs has It's a Trap Blu-ray/DVD combo as well.

Re: Family Guy - It's a Trap! ----> 12/21/2010
 

I got the Blu-ray box set, and the case doesn't list it, but the digital copy of "It's a Trap" says "DVD + Digital Copy." The other two just say "digital copy." Got mine from Amazon...
