Even the Death Star, the ultimate destructive force in the Star Wars galaxy, needs adequate catering facilities. So what happens when Darth Vader goes for lunch?

I’m a big fan of Eddie Izzard, LEGO™, Star Wars and I dont think I’ve ever been to a canteen or cafeteria I was satisfied with.

So I found this LEGO™ re-enactment of Eddie Izzard’s rant about the Death Star cafeteria really funny, especially as the trays in our cafeteria are always wet!

I was excited to discover that the final episode of Family Guy Season 7 will be a 1hr long sequel to the Season 6 Star Wars episode Family Guy: Blue Harvest.

The episode will be titled Something, Something, Something, Dark Side.

Basically Something, Something, Something, Dark Side will be a parody of Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back.

Awesome!

Origins
The title came from a cut-away scene in Family Guy’s season 5 episode, Barely Legal. When The Emperor discovered the formula for perfect Star Wars dialogue:

“Something, something, something dark side.
Something, something, something complete.”

Production
Season 7 of Family Guy will air in the US on the FOX Network on September 28, 2008. Something, Something, Something, Dark Side will be episodes 21 and 22. So, presumably Something, Something, Something, Dark Side will air 21 weeks later on Feb 22nd.

It’s rumoured that Something, Something, Something, Dark Side will air with little or no commercial interruption, presumably lasting a full hour. There has been speculation that Something, Something, Something, Dark Side may be released on DVD just before the TV premiere.

Family Guy and Star Wars

With Seth MacFarlane and many of the other Family Guy writers being Star Wars fans, I have always felt that a sequel to Family Guy: Blue Harvest was inevitable. In an interview with StarWars.com Family Guy Creator Seth MacFaralane said:

“The great thing about Lucasfilm is that they allow people like us to embrace that fandom and have some fun.

The only reason we were able to do ‘Family Guy: Blue Harvest’ is because we have so many writers who know the [Star Wars] films so well they can recite it from start to finish. It’s something that never really leaves people’s heads.”

Hopefully Something, Something, Something, Dark Side will also be officially endorsed by Lucasfilm; George Lucas is a huge fan of Family Guy.

Mort Goldman will appear in Something, Something, Something, Dark Side as Lando Calrissian, I’ve also heard that the Giant Chicken, Peter’s arch-nemesis, will appear as Boba-Fett.

Family Guy: Something, Something, Something, Dark Side
To be honest as a huge Family Guy fan and a huge Star Wars fan (whose favourite film is still Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back); I’m really excited about this!
