The Worst Film Ever

Absolutely Fantastic

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

It must've been a painful evening for the crowd that went to the release of this trash-bucket. I'm a huge fan of Family Guy and American Dad. I think it's some of the most brilliant cartoon humor around. This, however was base, crude, sophomoric and flat-out embarrassing. If I was at the premiere, I'm sure I would have had to leave. I was truly deeply shocked at the difference in tone between FG, AD, and this. Also, Seth M. continually, obnoxiously jumps up and down on, and smashes the toes of Christian believers with ever-present offensive references to Jesus and God. God in bed with his "girlfriend" and because it's His birthday, he wants to skip the condom. NOT FUNNY. Let's see you make a caricature of Mohammed. See what happens. You do that to Christians because you know they won't fight back. McFarlane is his funniest when he just sticks to good ol' crazy "generally-offensive" humor, where every stereotype just gets whacked. Equal-opportunity discrimination, if you will.

Do not get me wrong, I am a huge Family Guy fan but this DVD of random crap seth macfarlane slapped together was complete garbage. Granted, it did have a very small number of hilarious sketches but all in all the sketches were terribly unfunny. Had I payed more than $5 for this movie that i found floating in the 'bargain bin' at walmart, I would have been very upset, (especially since you can't return opened DVDs to walmart for a cash refund) but alas it was only $5 and a small period of my life wasted that I will never get back which I guess isn't too bad. I just felt compelled to warn other Family Guy fans to steer clear of this DVD.

In the world of animated comedy, Seth MacFarlane is probably the busiest at the moment. Not only is he behind three prime-time shows ('Family Guy', 'American Dad', 'The Cleveland Show') he also does voice work for 'Robot Chicken' (the side-project of his 'Family Guy' cast-mate Seth Green).The 'Cavalcade' was originally broadcast in 2008 in an online format. Away from commercial pressures, Seth uses this freedom to deliver sketches with an abundance of swearing, violence, sex scenes/references and gross-out moments, as well as the usual pop-culture reference : The Flinstones, Super Mario Bros, Looney Tunes, as well as – surprise, surprise - a number of eighties movies) and you get the feeling it's something he wanted to do for a while. The style of humour is far more vulgar than 'Family Guy', and at times seems there purely for shock value, lacking the cleverness (and nostalgia value) of 'Robot Chicken'. The problem is, in a society desensitized to all but the most explicit content,it's hard to get away with shock value for the sake of it. Most of the punchlines tend to be fairly predictable (a depressed Wile E. Coyote turns to Jesus, a horse in a bar is actually Sarah Jessica Parker, Helena Bonham Carter is mistaken for a corpse etc).It's fair to say this collection could even pass as a montage of 'Family Guy' cut-away gags, especially with a lot of 'Family Guy' voice talent (including MacFarlane, Alex Borstein and Green), and guest appearances from Gilbert Gottfried and Will Wheadon, both playing themselves. Gottfried's performance is a highlight, willingly taking the mickey out of himself.Overall, 'Cavalcade' is not one of Seth MacFarlane's best works. While you can appreciate it is a passion project for him, fans of his previous work have seen it all before (or variants of it) and the reliance on shock value doesn't have the same impact.

Sorry guys, I really like American dad and family guy as well and I certainly thought that this will be a lot of fun but god 14 one-two minute episodes and they were totally stupid. All movies were just trivial jokes if any jokes at all!! I OK I agree the episode with the frog and the princesses began as nice joke but it really ended like crap - literally! The episode with the cats.... seriously for a two minute and less I almost fell asleep and the ending - a dog with a crane for demolishing - not even funny especially when you see it trough 2/3 of the episode preparing for the final blow. Super Mario episode - crappy ending as well although I did not suppose they'd show the decapitation of the princess. Well thats about it - if you have 10 minutes you can watch it but don't expect much.
