Below are 12 things you might not have realised about this brilliant movie!
This kind of parody is brilliant. Family Guy probably had enough one-off Star Wars jokes and Star Wars-related cutaway gags to fill an entire hour long special episode before they decided to just that.
Released in 1990 and directed by Jerry Zucker, it tells the story of a murdered man (played by the late Patrick Swayze) revisiting his lover (Demi Moore) as a ghost, as well as the Psychic (Whoopi Goldberg) who goes out of her way to assist them. There’s a lot of great gags involving Herbert. Ghost and Ghostbusters have nothing in common aside from the fact that the plots of both movies involve ghosts in some way.
Apparently Willis didn’t want to play a character that was dead for the majority of a film, but has since admitted he was crazy for turning it down. We encourage you to read our updated PRIVACY POLICY and COOKIE POLICY. Doc is horrified that Marty’s white daughter is married to a black man, but this doesn’t bother Marty. Not only did it receive positive reviews from critics, but Ghost was also a massive box office success, making over $500 million whilst only having a budget of $22 million. The episode had satirical jokes about elitist society and racism and the Catholic Church, as well as great references to movies like The Blues Brothers and The Passion of the Christ – and, of course, North by Northwest. In Family Guy, they combine these two movies by having Peter, dressed as a ghostbuster with a proton pack strapped to his back, burst in during the pottery scene from Ghost – arguably one of the most heartfelt and romantic scenes in movie history – and suck Patrick Swayze into his Muon trap. Ghost contains one of the most parodied scenes of all time, it of course being the one involving Moore, Swayze, a pottery wheel and a certain song by the Righteous Brothers. In fact, it was better than ever.
The scene happens quite early in the movie, at the 11 th minute, before Sam’s death.
A Bollywood remake was also released 1991, only a year after the original.
However, sometimes it will form a part of the plot and serve absolutely no purpose, like this recreation of the unintentionally comedic training montage from Rocky IV, which Brian launches into when he should be studying for a big exam – only to realize that when the exam is just a short while away.
But Family Guy made an exception to that rule in order to give us a scene that is less a parody and more an affectionate homage. It was a turning point in the show’s history, since it was the first episode after Fox cancelled the show and then brought it back a few years later.
Bruce Willis (Demi Moore’s husband at the time) was offered the role of Sam Wheat, but he wasn’t convinced that the film would work so turned it down. They did three different adaptations of Stephen King stories – Stand By Me, Misery, and The Shawshank Redemption. “I envisioned her with these big blocks of wood and with big hammers and really going at it and really powerful,” Rubin recalled in a DVD featurette about the scene. And believe it or not, not only could she produce tears whenever she wanted, but she was also able choose which eye to produce the tears from!

It’s a wonderful day for a satirical takedown of a Nazi, too!
The focus on four friends ribbing each other and bickering about various subjects was a perfect fit for Peter, Cleveland, Quagmire, and Joe – plus, having Adam West play the Kiefer Sutherland bully was a stroke of genius.
Their original meaning or the feeling that those camera shots and lines of dialogue evoke have been reappropriated for the story that Family Guy is telling. Famous examples of this scene being remade for comic effect are seen in Naked Gun 2½, Two and a Half Men, Family Guy, The Penguins of Madagascar, Futurama and Wallace and Gromit. There was the cutaway scene on the slave ship in one episode where the sailor tells the complaining slaves, “I will turn this ship around!” and they agree that that’d be a good idea.
It was called Pyaar Ka Saaya, which translates as ‘The Shadow of Love’, and it starred Rahul Roy.
Since Stand By Me is such a beautiful and hugely beloved movie, it hasn’t left much room for parody – but Family Guy managed to sniff it out. When auditioningm Demi Moore impressed everyone with her amazing ability to produce tears on demand, which is a good trick to have up your sleeve, even if you’re already an amazing actor! Family Guy can’t resist any opportunity to do a musical number in the style of the classic movie musicals from the mid-20th century.
In Family Guy, they combine these two movies by having Peter, dressed as a ghostbuster with a proton pack strapped to his back, burst in during the pottery scene from Ghost – arguably one of the most heartfelt and romantic scenes in movie history – and suck Patrick Swayze into his Muon trap. In the case of Back to the Future, this is the idea that a teenage boy and an old man would hang out together. Discover and Share the best GIFs on Tenor.

Some of the jokes rely on deep knowledge of the Star Wars trilogy on the audience’s part, like the line “Don’t get penis-y,” but that’s what makes it so great. Pop culture references form the very foundation that Family Guy is built on.
Mayor West mentions the Got Milk commercial and a Connect 4 commercial among his favorites. It’s an utterly postmodern show in that regard.
It’s hard to spoof a movie that’s already a hilarious comedy in its own right. Mayor West’s paranoia continues, as he asks Meg if she is Sarah Connor, the lead character in Terminator 2: Judgment Day. Producers weren’t sure about offering the role of Sam to Patrick Swayze, because, despite the fact he had already starred in the incredibly successful Dirty Dancing, he was still seen by some as being an action star rather than a romantic lead.
Two classic Hollywood films collide with Ghost and Ghostbusters, as Peter sucks up Patrick Swayze’s ghost in the crucial pottery scene. The spoof did hilarious plays on the Richard Dreyfuss voiceover narration and framing device, the slow motion train sequence (“Train!…’Nother train!”), and the explanations at the end about what happened to everyone, which Peter changes to reflect what happened to all the kid actors in the years after the film’s release.
Then he realizes that maybe he shouldn’t be hanging around with this old guy anymore. Some cinemas in Mexico handed out envelopes full of tissues that had ‘solo para mujeres’ (‘for women only’) written on them. It combines the cinematic icons that are the ghostbusters’ uniforms and proton packs with one of the most memorable moments in film history and undermines them both.
Patrick Wayne Swayze (August 18, 1952 – September 14, 2009) was an American actor, dancer and singer-songwriter.

It was a fine return to form for the show. That was a great moment, both for the character and for the movie parodies, but the best movie parody in Family Guy to involve Herbert is this reference to Animal House. The show had gained some extra popularity in its reruns on Adult Swim, so when it came back, there was a lot of pressure riding on it. However, this is not the case for Family Guy. Its episodes would be virtually non-existent if you took out all the pop culture references. It serves no purpose, really, but it is funny, and that makes it worth it. Then the writers unsuspend that disbelief and see what would happen. Some of the best movie parodies will draw together two different targets that have very little in common apart from one connecting thread and show what would happen if they were to cross over with one another.
But it’s not all bad.
Every character immediately turns on the Jewish character in a vicious manner and Stewie and Brian decide to leave. Too bad, because the logical version would actually have been more spiritual and moving.”. Whilst we’d never claim that Demi Moore was anything other than absolutely gorgeous in her role as Molly Jensen, there’s not doubt that her hair was slightly out of the ordinary. “North by North Quahog” is a special episode of Family Guy. However, this all changed when producers saw Swayze crying during an interview whilst talking about his dad who had recently died.
He was best known for his tough-guy roles and as a romantic leading men in the films Dirty Dancing and Ghost and in the North and South television miniseries.. Many TV critics see this as a bad thing and it’s one of the focal points of their negative critiques of the show. Sadly that’s all for now. How hilarious!
To us that seems rather sexist, as we bet there were also plenty of men shedding a tear during the ending of this movie! Stewie runs up to a Zoltar coin-operated console and wishes to be big, a line from the film Big. It’s a Star Wars parody made by Star Wars nerds for Star Wars nerds!
In “Road to the Multiverse,” when Stewie and Brian are traveling through the infinite possible versions of reality (and this was way before Rick and Morty did the exact same thing, too), they stumble across a universe that is animated and musically scored like a Disney movie. This scene has the same color grading, same camera angles, and same Geto Boys song as the scene from Office Space, and it is – as Peter Griffin would say – freakin’ sweet. Family Guy’s attention to production logos begins with the Stephen J. Cannell Productions typewriter scene. So, all things considered, the three Star Wars specials – dubbed retroactively as the “Laugh It Up, Fuzzball!” trilogy – make up the greatest movie parody in Family Guy history. These little... From Oreo cookies to Hot Pockets, everyone has their favorite when the munchies come calling. There was a whole new fan base now, and the show had been off the air for about three years.
