"I did not care for The Godfather"
- Thread starter Sibersk Esto
- Start date
Even though Seth doesn't work on the show anymore, the show Iirc in one of the more recent seasons did acknowledge (Peter actually saying it) that they were trying to make strives to not do that humor. No idea if it ended up being true or not.
I've 100% screamed "Robert Duvall" at people who haven't seen or didn't enjoy The Godfather. And I didn't see it myself until my damn near my mid 20s. Went in ultra cynical too because of just that, people shitting themselves over it, and yeah, no, they're right. 1 & 2 are flawless films.
Also this is me with any Mario game outside of maybe 2 and 64.

Mario 3 peaked with that first Tanooki Suit flight. Which was pretty early IIRC. At least it gave us The Wizard. Not even going dignity Paper Mario with a response.
See I don't entirely agree with this, I don't think he is being contrarian for the sake of being contrarian because of the context.
Obviously it's a gag in an animated series but it's a "final moments" scene. He's knows the reaction he's going to get for his genuine feelings towards the movie. This wasn't just said in a normal situation to solicit that reaction or show off, it's a revelation that he hasn't said before precisely because he knows people will disagree with him.
He can't launch a genuine criticism on it because his feelings come from a place of subjectivity and not objectivity, which is a wider conversation in itself. He even acknowledges the talent involved with the film but he personally cannot derive enjoyment or enlightenment from it.
The people saying "Lol that's me in ____" threads are also having a light hearted joke about the scene and their own subjective opinions of item a, b or c. We're all thinking a bit too hard about this.
One of my favorite FG scenes. The whole 'insisting' argument back and forth is amazing, plus Chris' escalation of, "Robert DeNiro, Al Pacino... I mean, you never see -- ROBERT DUVALL!"
(I can't watch movies with Robert Duvall without hearing Chris scream his name in my head, lol.)

The first two seasons of Family guy were a goldmine of funny moments. It went downhill after it was brought back though.
back to the future is all just one big movie, same with godfather
No it's not, because then you have to include part 3 and then Peter would be right.
Except people do talk about it not being great. I think it's a very average game.
Ahahah, I'm rolling with the replies here.
Only in this forum can a thread about a random clip in some TV Show turn into a beacon for people to come in and brag (one more time) about how they dislike a game that is loved by the general public.

That doesnt even make sense.
Btw, "favorite game"? Cmon, buddy, you're gonna have to try a little harder than that.
I can tell you my favorite game, so you can then tell me it sucks, but only if you promise to stop sulking.
It's because you're forced to read certain acclaimed literature in school. You aren't ever really forced to watch acclaimed movies or TV shows. Thus, you get more "The Grapes of Wrath sucked" or "The Great Gatsby is overrated" than "I did not care for The Godfather" or "Lawrence of Arabia is long and boring."
I like The Godfather and I also thought the family guy bit was funny. I think the best part about The Godfather trilogy was part two when we see a young fat Tony raising through the ranks.
Because the writers went to American Dad. Which kept having funny moments, even if increasing deranged and off the wall with Roger
It's still pretty good. Every now and again they try to do a plot driven episode which is usually god awful. But when they keep it loose and stupid, it's usually a great watch.
