Jedi Parody talk

The cast of Family Guy have been talking about the third installment of their Star Wars parody We Have A Bad Feeling About This at Paley Fest. According to Alex Borstein there will definitely by a slave 'Leia' Lois and that Lois' opinion of the geek-hot costume will "probably mirror that of Carrie Fisher's actual real life distain for the uncomfortable and humiliating garb." Alex also confessed to be a total Star Wars nerd.

Everyone was mostly quiet on the details but Seth Green contributed, "there'll be Ewoks in it!" Seth MacFarlane made a little more noise on the subject of the infamous Jedi Ewoks: "You know I was never as down on Ewoks as other people were. I don't see what the difference is. Everyone s***s on the Ewoks and no one s***s on the Jawas. I don't understand why that is. They're both little dwarves in suits. They both make little cutesy noises. What's the difference? The Ewoks are fuzzier."

So, any plans for further parody shows? "It’s all about legal rights," MacFarlane confessed (reported by IGN). "It’s all about who will give us the movie rights. [George] Lucas was incredibly cool about it. His company is very progressive and I don’t know that Paramount would say yes. We haven’t asked them though." MacFarlane did express interest ultimately. "Yeah, that would be a good time. The Wrath of Khan would be a logical one for us to do" So no mention of Indiana Jones then.
