Everything We Know About The FAMILY GUY Movie 

It will be forever hilarious to me that Bob burgers got a movie in a decade since the show came out while Family guy has been in limbo of not having a film for over 2 decades since it came out.

An "American Dad!" movie has a lot of potential. Bullock could take over America and go mad with power, Stan could be discovered for harboring Roger, Roger's people might invade, all of Roger's personas could have an epic Helm's Deep battle, Klaus could be there. It'd be epic.

Family Guy Movie as a series finale would be great. Just go all out, balls to the wall, end it as bombastic as they could ever go. The chicken fight that ends the universe?

The idea you pitched about the family going to save Brian and Stewie is honestly a dope idea. They could call it “The Road to Brian and Stewie.”

The Family Guy movie should have the longest, highest animation budgeted Peter vs Chicken fight. Like, let them go all out on this one.

Simpsons, South Park and Bob’s Burgers got a movie while Family Guy didn’t

I feel like a family guy movie plot would be a "Griffins save the rec center" thing. Like Peter discovers something from his childhood is threatened and the characters band together to earn it enough money to save it from the stereotypical greeder land developers, maybe Lois' dad, I dunno 🤷🏾‍♂️

While Chris can still make me chuckle, I'm so over the one note "horny teen" shit. I remember he used to love drawing and was good at it. Meant nothing. I know FG has done that to pretty much every character, but they just don't try with him anymore. Even meg gets legit stories for herself outside of just being hated by her family.

I didn't find out Cree Summer was originally considered for the role of Meg until a couple weeks ago and I'm still mindblown over that

Where’s the American dad movie is the real question. Where’s the giant hour and a half movie where Roger is found out by the cia and it’s a big road-trip adventure as the smiths are on the run and a subplot with klaus getting put on the moon. I WANT THAT MOVIE GOD DANG IT.

I’d love an American Dad! Movie.

Idk if this is a hot take or not, but I honestly think American Dad has more potential for and is worthier of a theatrical film than Family Guy. Obviously it wouldn’t make as much money, but still.

Honestly, Mila's terrible singing is iconic and should definitely be included in the movie.

If Family Guy movie ever happened, theyre gonna need to have the characters act like how they the early to mid seasons. Because I doubt audiences are gonna wanna see through a hour of them in their current iteration.

"Trust Issue Movie" is such a great term. I know I definitely experienced that with the announced Arrested Development movie before the Netflix seasons came along. And I'm currently feeling that way with the next Star Trek movie and its constant director announcements. I've seen Seth MacFarlane talk about his tendency to focus on one project at a time, hence his leaving the writing on "Family Guy" and "American Dad" to other people, so I think he has also been distracted by other things like "Ted" (both the movies and show) and "The Orville."

I'll love to have the movie be a Road To plot with the entire Griffin family.

Besides Bob’s Burger’s bombing, I think another thing stopping a Family Guy movie from getting green lit is how the show’s humor doesn’t have much of an international appeal of something like the Simpsons.

Need that family guy movie. I miss when cartoons got movies. Bob’s filled the itch but I crave more. If anything just to see more 2D animation in theaters

What if the Family Guy movie is just one LONG cutaway? Peter sets it up at the beginning, and then after the credits, it cuts back the family, and Lois is like, "Oh my God, Peter, that was the longest or most expensive cutaway we've ever done

I definitely think your idea for the movie is the way to go. They’ve been teetering on them knowing about Stewie for years now so honestly I think the film finally addressing the secret side of him and everyone understanding him becoming the new status quo would be a great way to make the movie feel substantial

Okay hear me out: A Family Guy movie, but Mike Henry voices Peter, Phil LaMarr voices Brian, Lori Alan voices Stewie, and Nicole Sullivan voices Quagmires. YOU’RE GETTING SLACKS!

Hear me out. Family Guy The Movie: Road To The Disney Vault. Stewie and Brian go on an epic heist to break into the Disney Vault to steal and/or liberate the valuable decades of IP's held within. Controversial, forgotten, and everything in between. They won't be able to do it alone obviously so they'll need a man on the inside, someone so wants to see The Mouse hurt for what they did to him: Someone who's been gone for years but never forgotten. Whomever that is though would be revealed later to build suspense.

So one idea I always had for a Family Guy Movie would be the cutaway gags looking super accurate to the source material. As a way to make the movie feel like a big event. For example a joke about Bugs Bunny would be animated like a Looney Tunes Cartoon. A joke involving a celebrity would actually be the real life celebrity filming the joke in live action. A joke about Toy Story would actually have the joke animated by Pixar. It would be super difficult to pull off but it would also be a really cool thing to see.

It's been 20 years, so idk how a family guy movie will play out

I don't have any opinions about a movie, I am just here to listen to Tariq tell me about Family Guy

I remember sitting down and reading the director's commentary for The Simpson's Movie and as a fan of The Simpsons do NOT fucking do that. It seriously damaged my perspective on the writers as they stated they wanted test audiences (compromised of completely random people not Simpsons Fans) to stand up and cheer upon first seeing a Simpson's character and when they didn't the writers freaked out. They then decided to make The Simpsons Movie appeal to people who had never seen the show before at all (which lead to replacing the Milhouse and Lisa romance with Lisa and Collin who disappears after the movie because audiences who had never seen the show wouldn't recognize the story behind them). They then said blatantly that writing wise they realized the movie doesn't actually make sense but they hoped in editing they could cut the movie so they got to each scene so quickly you wouldn't notice and the scene with Homer at the fair winning the motorcycle was one of the last things made because they wrote the entire thing and at the end someone brought up they hadn't established Homer could ride a motorcycle in the first place. All this to say I can see the Family Guy writers freaking out in the same way and doing something similar because at the end of the day The Simpsons Movie was a financial success.

Remember the time when they almost wanted to make it a thing that Chris is an artist and wanted to draw comics?

I keep thinking they can make a bit about this with Bob's Burgers since they love making jokes about them: Peter: Oh, because he got a movie, he thinks he's a big shot. Bob: Well, at least I got a movie. Peter:.......... I'll go now.

This Storiaverse sounds like the kind of invention I'll hear one or two more adverts for and then never again until next year when someone makes a video calling it either tragically underappreciated or an ill-advised business stunt.

The Bob's Burgers movie was so good and i aint ever seen that much of the series. Family Guy had so much potential for a movie, whatever people say about the modern seasons doesn't mean it can't work. You could've said the same thing about BB and it worked incredibly. The idea of it being a musical styled after those golden era films is so enticing and I would be so down to see it, and i REALLY wanna see how that shit looks. I think if anything it could be bonkers and i like that type of humor from Family Guy.

i think a lot of people expect a family guy movie just because the shows so iconic. especially since bobs got one. i really dont know how theyd do it. shows so open ended yet formulaic at the same time. but if seth is confident in it I think it would be dope. i dont think a family guy movie could be late. the show is still in the popular concious and arguably always will be. i mean family guys always in memes, always being remixed. even if a lot of its ironic, irony comes from some sort of genuine place. simpsons was a decade or so late and it still did super well. i think next 5 years is a good time frame. maybe they could crossover with american dad rugrats go wild style idk lol

I was supposed to go to the read thru where they announced a movie was an idea along with the 2 specials this year but I bailed because traffic in LA was fucked on a Friday night 💀

I would love to see a family Guy movie even that whole road to story idea make it an actual road trip compared to what they've been doing I don't even think we saw much of Stewie and Brian traveling traveling since the first road to story in like season 1 or 2

Love the editing on this one, just sounds like Tariq is having fun

U randomly be putting oldschool classics all thru yo video. Big w brodie

Your videos are like a cup of hot cocoa after a long day; can’t get enough

I first heard about the Family Guy movie at Comic Con 2011 when someone asked Seth if there would be a Family Guy movie

The "road too" episodes are based off of a series of movies with Bob Hope and Bing Crosby where every movie they did began with "The road to". "The road symbolizes the journey or adventure.... not an actual road.

I was thinking Peter chooses to move the family to Irland after his real father dies and leaves him the bar. Brian loves being an American and wants them not to move. So he enlists Stewe's help, but he wants to move too as he hates the town they are currently living in. So, Brian has to get help from the boys. Joe, Cleveland, and Quagmire to help stop the move, but he learns they want Peter gone. This I'd even set up being the last Family Guy. The finale Seth wants. He I know wants to move on to other projects.

Not my boy Tariq hating on being a Bob Newhart fan 🤣

This guy been on his posting shit we love to see it

I love your videos so much - you seem like the most chill dude ever💯

If they ever do make a movie, I’d hope it would also serve as a grand finale for the franchise.

I'm so glad I slowed down the video from 3× speed to double-check what you said; at first, I thought you said Space Jam came out the year after you graduated but thought you were talking about the first one.

Keep it up bro

Very interesting stuff

The idea you pitched of them finding out about Stewie feels a lot like the Phineas and Ferb movie where they find out about Perry. That movie was fire though so I’m good with this concept

I hope in the family guy movie theres scene where peter says " im a family guy" then it cuts to a live action audience and its seth Mcfarlane saying " ah he said it"

tariq making himself giggle every time he remembers mike henry cleveland

I love bro intro songs , I need something like that 🔥💯

I want the movie to either: 1. Be based on a “Road to” episode Or 2. Be that “Previously on Family Guy” moment from Season 1 with all those movie GIFs, but it’s a movie.

ToonrificTariq and Family Guy videos, always a great combination. …but yeah, I’d be down for a Family Guy movie.

Family Guy has a very particular pacing to it, especially with the cutaways, which is why I've always been SUPER skeptical at the idea of a theatrical movie that I don't think shows like South Park and The Simpsons had a problem with for their theatrical releases.

i havent heard roger that in foreverrr

2 videos in a week?!?! ❤❤❤

I think there should be a cold open that's some kind of fake out, implying the movie is going to go in one direction and at the end of the cold open peter says this reminds me of the time we had our own movie! and then the rest of the movie doesn't have any cutaways

7:47 this was refreshing i was so expecting the usual youtuber awkward pause until it didnt happen and a wave of relief followed that fast ass joke

I’m not going to lie ToonrificTarig also shout out to you my boy I love your videos, man keep up the good work but the more I think about it, a family Guy movie can work

If this movie happens i’ll be there day one in stewie cosplay with a brian plushie

Meg singing like Chaka Khan would be HILARIOUS 😂

Hopefully they make it! C'mon Seth letssss goooo!

Is that Paul Blart in the thumbnail? That sh*t freaked me out when I first discovered him, 😂😂👌🏾

been feeling hella under the weather then Tariq drop and the world don't seem so bad anymore

I think having Ernie be involved could be really cool, either as the primary antagonist to the film or a secondary protagonist alongside Peter. Antagonist of course would mean it would end in a chicken fight, but with the whole family involved this time round. Protag I'd like to see the consequences of a Peter & Ernie brawl be the catalyst to the movie. They cause so much collateral they're now forced to go on the run, evading the law and realising they have more in common than once thought, whilst their respective families go into questioning and either try and clear their names or profit off of the publicity the event has caused (depending on the family member)

Wished I would going Toon a year later so can binge watch all his videos I’m all caught up

it’s crazy that the first video I ever saw, I related so much cause I’m also a hood nerd and *I knew instantly* that you were born in 1997

I always envision it as a finale to the franchise, where Peter sacrifices himself at the end. 5:47, 10:01 That image kinda creeps me out.

They would have to get back Dan Povenmire if they wanted to match the sheer theatricality of those earlier Brian and Stewie episodes.

I’ve always wanted a family guy movie, been a fan since 2004(remember it was cancelled after season 3😂, that was wild). Hopefully it’s done right. We need a teenage Stewie and adult chris and Meg!!

7:03 Honestly, I like the idea. Like, maybe all the characters that they pissed off teamed up to hunt down/kidnap Brian and Stewie. Like that one episode of Gumball where everyone just chased down the Wattersons. It could also lead to Stewie finally growing up or something

Why would they make a Family Guy movie when 45mins of it are just gonna be cutaways?

Back at it like a bad habit

One thing i hope is that the animation is over the top, heck even hand drawn like the Bob’s Burgers movie. That would be awesome

"Trust issue movies" So, the Minecraft movie?

unrelated but I hope the orville gets renewed or a movie that wraps it all up

If it is a musical I hope they have a singalong version of the film where a mini version of the characters head bobs up and down the lyrics on the screen that would be neat

I would 💯 go see it in theathers if thats even a thing when this comes out

I always wanted Stewie's third encounter with Bertram to be a movie

2 toonrifiqtariq videos so close together? What is it Christmas?

I want it

hi tariq

Really early but yep the Family-sons movie does exist

"why aren't people saying 'isn't it too late in the show's lifespan to do this' like they did for the simpsons movie" because the simpsons movie did it and proved it can still be really good, lol also i feel like there's a half-life on how long people can look up and care enough about a show outstaying it's welcome to comment on it, like... you have the start, and thne the show goes on for several seasons, then you hit the point where people go "maybe it's time for the show to end..." and then it just keeps going and people grow numb to it after a while.

I always had two requirements for the family guy movie. Bring in half the old team from the first 3 seasons and have a stewie and Brian side plot.

you seen that metalocalypse movie? great example of making a tv cartoon's movie feel big like a real movie

I would love to see Family Guy on the big screen!

They missed the train about 15 years ago.

I have an idea for a Family Guy movie, but it's a much more meta narrative. Similar to films like The Truman Show, The Matrix, and Everything Everywhere All at Once, I would make it about the Griffin family and the entire town of Quahog (Quagmire, Joe, Cleveland and the other characters) being banished to our world (the live action realm), because of how terrible they've become as people, and head on a spiritual journey to find themselves, learning what it's like to be human. I want this to satirize the dip in quality of the show, Hollywood entertainment, and look into philosophical ideas about morality and what it takes to be family. This sounds like a great idea, am I right?

Don't forget what he said in episode 100

7:32 alright but unironically that sounds great for a movie

All I know is is they make a Family Guy movie, it has to be a musical. Well, of course other cartoon shows I’ve had moments, Family Guy particular hits a home run every time they do a musical in the show. Probably mostly in part two Seth background, and having an amazing voice. Either way, I’ll be excited!

I hope it’s a straight adventure movie that takes place in one long cutscene

King of the hill & an boondocks movie

Maybe an American Dad movie where the CIA finds out roger is living with the Smiths!!!!

If they get a movie we definitely seeing a 10 min cut away scene

I was gonna leave a comment but I tweeted instead; this is here for engagement.

Problem is the movie would be on Hulu. Where would you stream this

I hope the movie is fire, I'd like loving family guy again

I imagined the family guy movie being just like phineas and ferb across the 2nd dimension. Maybe peter, lois, meg and chris can understand stewie's well-beings and his technologies he made and brian would told the family so
