Ah, Family Guy. Cancelled more times that a TotalFilm.com writer's credit card and once consigned to being chuckle fodder for collegiate stoners... The series is now one of the most popular on the planet.
With creator, writer and voice actor Seth MacFarlane being a colossal cinephile, Family Guy is packed with in-jokes, references, homages and even entire remakes of films, from Hitchcock to Spielberg, classic to cult, there's barely a film they haven't poked fun at.
Here are ten of the best....
The Spoof: The Empire Strikes Back (1980)
If they’d made the movie: They did. Something, Something, Something Darkside, the sequel to The Blue Harvest, hits DVD/Blu-ray 28th December.
Next: Brokeback Mountain

they technically did make a whole episode based on terminator/Hannah montanna in the episode "Hannah banana" stewie discovers that miley cyrus is a robot and chris befriends the evil monkey. in the end scene miley cyrus starts destroying the city after stewie re-programs her accidentaly she grabs the evil monkey and climbs up a building that resembles the empire state building which is a clear reference to king kong but with roles reversed then peter and quagmire shoot her to destroy her the skin peels to reveal her robotic appearance almost identical to the terminator
