Can you cite a source that indicates the material was made in ONLY 480p and upscaled to 1080p?

LOl mY 106' INCH 1080p projector can easily detect that, with the help of my eyes. It's HORRENDOUS. there's HUGE amount of jaggies because of the lower rez.

Put that and after put Futurama. With is THE SAME STYLE OF ANIMATION and you'll go BLIND

Please when you talk about a title...own it! I own the carnivales or cartoon.. Knowing it's 4x3 because it's written in the back and i don't care because if it's 1080p it's fine (i own many 4x3 TRUE 1080p movies in Black and White, Star trek.. etc..). This one is just BAD upconverted video...

I'am not saying This disc will be like that. But i warn anybody that would cry paying 5-10$ Premium for this Blu-ray (about that in Street price)

jaggies can come from more than low resolution

Just because two things are both traditional animation doesn't mean that they will look the same. They will likely have different lineweights and different definition to the lineart, as well as numerous other basic technical aspects of the art.

Frankly, I would be a little weirded out if the lineart style appeared the same between the two titles, since they're not even handled by the same production company as far as I know.

I do own it. It being 4:3 doesn't mean a damn thing.

I tried doing a little research on it, and all I could find were a TON of unsubstantiated claims. People seem to think that because the lineart isn't the most defined of 1080p lineart and that it's 4:3, it HAS to be upscaled. Cite a source, otherwise all you've got is baseless speculation.

They should put the 1st & this in a 2 pack.

No, they'll release this one on Blu, and then eventually Blue Harvest will come out on Blu, and then they'll do a third (which I'm thinking might be titled either Something, Something, Something Complete or Revenge of the Giggity). And THEN... they'll release all 3 of them in some sort of limited edition Stewie-as-Darth-Vader gift set, complete with stickers, a special features disc, and poster.

Well, that's what George would do. Dunno abouth Seth.

Good news:

Digital Copy with the Blu-Ray! (they better not pull an "Amadeus" and issue the DC as WM only!)

This will go perfectly with my digital copy of Blue Harvest (one of the first DVDs to contain a digital copy)

deadhatetheliving · 08-25-2009, 02:12 AM

Meh. I've given up on Family Guy. American Dad and the Simpsons are the best shows on Animation Domination.
Wont waste my time.

groove93 · 08-25-2009, 04:12 PM

All I want to see is at the end of the "Return of The Jedi" spoof when Han walks up to Lando, points at the Falcon and says:

Han: "What's this?!?

Lando: "What's what?!"

Han :"What do you mean, what?! Where's the Dish?"

Lando: "Huh"

Han: "Don't stand there acting like you don't know what the hell I'm talking about! Where's the Dish, you Promised, not a Scratch!!"

Lando: "Hey, it got tight in there"

Han: "Ohh Bull, Wedge saw the whole thing in his rear view mirror, he said you had plenty of room to fly around in there!!"

Lando: "I just blew up the Death Star and you're pissed about a Dish!!??"

Han: "Hey Hey Hey Hey....hey......hey...a promise is a promise, and you Broke it man, you broke it!!!"

Lando: "What are you gonna cry now?!?"

Han: "No, I have something better...."

Han kicks Lando in the groin area. End of show!!!

You saw the script already?

dcowboy7 · 08-26-2009, 09:46 PM

Anyone have a tv air date for this ?

lol No, I watch too much Family Guy in the first place and thought this would be the type of conversation Lando and Han would be having.

It hasn't been announced yet, TMK. Although McFarlane has said it was intended as the season finale for Season 7, but it has since been moved to Season 8, which starts September 27th and runs through early next year.

My guess (and this is conjecture) is that it will air shortly before the DVD/Blu release, so they can promote the disc during the episode.

Not really into Family Guy but at least the HD trailer will put any fears of an SD upscale similar to Cavalcade of Cartoon Comedy to rest.

mugupo · 12-06-2009, 03:04 AM

horrible aspect ration, why they stick with dvd ratio.

Mike53421 · 12-06-2009, 05:18 AM

As a former Family Guy fan, to just casual watcher now, Blue Harvest was pretty amusing and that trailer made me laugh quite a few times.

BluRayGeek2612 · 12-06-2009, 01:09 PM

I love Family Guy, but I dont like these Star Wars specials. I think their hinting their out of ideas.
