If there’s one thing I can appreciate about the Ted films is the CGI on Ted himself. Despite being obviously animated, he looks so much like an actual teddy bear, I almost thought they used an actual doll and just animated the face.
It’s probably the effect that Baby Yoda has that they animated it and knew they didn’t need to make it look like a realistic creature but just like a puppet
The original Ted is the only rated R movie I got to see as a kid in theaters. I have no idea why but not only did my parents encourage me seeing it, but my grandmother and GREAT GRANDMOTHER actually WENT AND WATCHED IT WITH ME! As a kid seeing my 90 year old great grandmother dying laughing in the theater was a definite highlight.
My mom got really mad at me for laughing when the beat "died". I'm not a psycho I swear I just figured they wouldn't actually kill him off so soon because they would want to do a sequel if the movie did well haha
I heard a talk by a visual effects guy whose company did half the animation for the Ted movie (the other half being done by the legendary Tippett Studios). He said out of the dozens of films he’d worked on Seth MacFarlane was by far the best Director he’d ever worked with. He knew EXACTLY what he wanted, did not waste their time with vague direction and showed enormous respect for the level of effort the animators put into the work. He spoke to everyone like an equal at all levels of production, just a genuinely nice person by all reports.
I was watching an interview of him recently and he was talking about how he doesn’t write for family guy anymore and hasn’t since 2010. He preceded that by saying that he gives his writers complete control and he doesn’t butt in. He said he will offer advice if it’s needed but other than that he trusts them to do their job. Sounded pretty stand up.
The original Ted is a guilty pleasure comedy for me,I got a few laughs out of it and it had good effects and soundtrack, I cannot say the same for the sequel or a million ways to die in the west.

I remember my grandma renting Ted for us and she was horrified. She still talked about it years later but called it “the little nasty bear movie” R.I.P. grandma 😔
I actually quite enjoyed A Million Ways to Die in the West and Ted. Never saw Ted 2, but I'd say Seth did pretty decently with his movies. I think Ted even had an academy award nomination for the opening song.
I honestly kinda disagree about Ted's ending. The whole conflict was about Mark Wahlberg's character having to choose between completely leaving his childhood behind for the sake of his relationship and future, or choosing to remain an irresponsible man- child for the rest of his life. And I think the ending we got was pretty good, with all three characters learning and growing. Ted had to learn to let Wahlberg's character live his one life and accept that he was no longer his priority, Mila Kunis' character needed to learn that while her boyfriend did need to grow up to some extent, she shouldn't push him to the point where he's sacrificing his prior relationships for her sake and completely abandon who he is, and Wahlberg's character needed to learn that he needed to find a way to balance his friends and girlfriend because the nature of both relationships will change over time and he needs to change with them. It's not great, but I think it was pretty good.
Agreed. Just because you grow older and get more mature doesn't mean you have to leave your childhood behind, there's a happy middleground and the ending shows that off pretty well.
@@PlayerZeroStart Exactly. I've always believed that the message of this movie is that you need to find a middle ground in situations like this, because giving up something you love for someone else will only lead to you resenting them for it later on. Not to mention the message that you should let someone you love be themselves so long as they aren't being selfish about it, as well as letting you friends grow and supporting their efforts to do so even if it means you're no longer as involved in their lives. All three of these are good life lessons, and I think it worked really well here. All three characters were behaving selfishly in different ways and harming each other's lives and relationships because of it, but all three managed to move past that selfishness, make peace with one another, and move forward. Too bad the sequel squandered all of that. Even the intended story with Mila Kunis about drugs honestly sounded terrible.
@@PlayerZeroStart I'm gonna be straight up honest. If your boyfriend/girlfriend, basically forces you to quit being friends with your childhood friend so he/she can force you to only pay attention to him/her. Dump him/her. There's a difference between maturity, and having a middleground, and being in a clingy toxic relationship.
Also that relationship would never survive her getting him to kick literally his oldest friend out of the house only to have said friend be murdered soon afterwards.
I think it's mostly the execution. In theory the theme is there, in execution it's more like a magic cop out to have them all have a happy ending. Then again, magic bear happened with literally no explanation so it somehow feels like a cop out... but also totally acceptable in terms of the general movie and the "rules" or lack of them? If it was given at least like 1 or 2 minutes more it probably would have felt more acceptable.
Not gonna lie, Liam Neeson buying Trix cereal was legit one of the funniest things I'd ever seen in a movie. Played it so straightforward. Laughed for several minutes.
I'm surprised that Illumination's Sing wasn't mentioned especially after the Minions movie comment. Seth had a prominent role as Mike in the movie essentially playing a variation of Brian Griffin. He was notably missing in the sequel.
yeah, the dub here in Latin America is what keeps bringing me back to these 2 movies, specially the beginning of the 2nd one with Ted and Tamy-Lyn (who is voiced by the actress of Princess Twilight) Never fails to make me laugh
It’s always pretty fascinating to me when creators from the animation industry branch out into live action films, like with Andrew Stanton making John Carter, or Brad Bird directing Tomorrowland.
I admit it. I liked A Million Ways To Die in The West. I liked the stoner energy of the characters verbalising what audiences think. It's almost like Seth can hear you say "man why is everyone so dirty?" which is a dynamic I don't think has been played with all that much. There is of course action comedies and horror comedies but not many take the time to stop and say "hang on, what is actually going on here? Why are we all like this?"
As an avid family guy fan you’re wrong. The first 3 seasons of family guy actually do have lots of heartfelt stories almost every episode ends with a wholesome family moment. I’d say up to about season 7-8 there’s still plenty of wholesome moments in the series but yeah after about season 10 they completely canned any serious storylines and the show just seems like the family all hate each other. This is likely cause Seth started moving on to other projects more commonly like his heavy focus on the Orville
Late reply but I wanted to say I disagree. Because the way the movie is written this theme of the value of childhood wonder doesn't work that well. The character of John is already depicted as sort of a man-child at the start of the film who doesn't have his life together. This isn't like Spielberg's Hook where Robin Williams' uptight dad character needs to learn to loosen up and reconcile with his childhood. John has always had Ted since he was young so he's never lost that childhood wonder in order to need to learn the value of it. Even worse, Ted 2 kind of just doubles down on John's childishness and immaturity by ditching Lori and making him more of a joke character without an actual arc.
The directors cut for A Million Ways to Die in the West was infinitely better than the regular version. The transition from Seth’s platonic relationship with Charlize to a romantic one felt way more natural in the directors cut since there was more time to flesh out their characters. The regular one felt more rushed and unnatural.
Thats an interesting take. From what i read people complained that the movie was TOO long. And TOO drawn out. Personally i liked the movie. If you're a fan of casual comedy films, you likely will not be too big on it. But if you're a fan of Seth's work then you'll enjoy it.
I could watch the first Ted movie a hundred times and still enjoy it, it took such a great spin on seth mcfarlane's comedic style to adapt it well into a live action film
i dont know at least seth has talents while Brian does but ironically enough he is just a little better at writer than the dog.....i mean family guy/cleveland show aside the Orville is legit awesome
I feel with the success of their first Ted movie, Seth got a very overconfident and got too overindulge with the next two films. Ted 2 especially was a mess with turning up his style if humor with none of the charm of the first. Also you should watch the Orville, it's honestly really good and feels more Star Trek than the Recent Official Trek.
The Orville is great. Star Trek forgot what it was supposed to be about. The Orville, while different, has that hope for the future that todays sci fi is sorely lacking.
Ted 1 will always hold a special place in my heart. My best friend had a babysitter when we were really young and one time the babysitter took us to the movies and let us watch Ted lmao
The Orville really surprised me. I checked it out expecting indeed a "Star Trek parody" along the lines of Galaxy Quest or even that Family Guy Star Wars they did, but it's actually a competently run, acted and scripted run sci-fi show with some humor and a lot of heart.
I remember watching all 3 of these movies at one point. Obviously, because I wasn't old enough to watch them at the time, I had just thought they were pretty good. Didn't think much about the fact that it was Seth, which was weird cuz I remember going in being excited since they were made by him. But yeah, I just thought they were alright. Of course, the first Ted was by far the best movie out of the bunch.
I think he makes content that is good to shut your brain off to when you've had a long week. After a long tiring series of unpleasant events you just sit back and put on his work so that you dont have to read too deeply into anything. In most situations I like deep meaningful movies and stories but I do have the occasional day where this style is prefered.
@@unisonproto I’m not sure I remember that… are you referring to the episode with the trial forcing the baby to do surgery? I don’t think that was an allegory defending circumcision… I feel like it was an important message of accepting someone as they are born despite gender and not forcing a lifestyle on them. Even though the trial votes to keep tradition, ultimately the message was showing how messed up it is to do that, not defending it.
You describing watching A Million Ways to Die in the West with your dad is exactly like what happened to me... I dragged my dad to cheapy theaters so I could watch South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut and he promptly fell asleep about a third of the way through the movie. 🤣
I hope I'm fortunate enough to fail as successfully as Seth one day. He's doing pretty good for himself and I'm sure we will see more films from him soon enough.
I feel bad that "The Orville" didn't get the appreciation it deserved. EXCELLENT SHOW. It was funny, clever, payed homage to past sci fi wonderfully, was well made and it wasn't just a comedy, it was also a really compelling story and just super enjoyable to watch. That show did not get the appreciation it deserved. Edit: I've been informed that it hasn't actually been cancelled, so thanks.
@@brookelynsmith9583 June second and not only that's it's season 3, no clue why this person thought it ended unless they assumed that the lack of orville after season 2 was because of cancellation rather than the pandemic lol
@@dooplon5083 Yes that's exactly what I assumed. There was a pretty decent period of time where there was little to no update on whether the show would continue and eventually I just stopped checking. Really glad to know it's coming back. It's a great show.
Ted 2 is literally an episode of family guy padded with filler. Seth already did the whole "realizing you are legally considered property and suing for personhood" thing with Brian Griffin.
I think that was the problem Ted, it felt like higher stakes family guy episode, having Ted sound like Peter didn't help either. But the first Ted felt like an assured movie, but it also showed that all Seth can offer is live action family guy humor, A Million Ways to Die in the West is basically a Brian/Stewie time travel plot to the old west. Ted essentially is a sentient Rupert movie
I remember only one joke from Ted and that was when Ted says "C'mon, I do _not_ sound that much like Peter Griffin" in the background of a party scene. It was funny because back then meta humor hadn't been done to death yet. So yeah, one laugh. Didn't even remember the plot like two weeks later.
“How the fuck does one man write, direct, produce, and star in his own film, have so much creative freedom, and have it turn out so bad?” Well, let me tell you about a couple blokes named Tommy Wiseau and Neil Breen…
Tommy wiseau is completely different than Seth. Seth is a successful creative, having written, directed, voice acted, acted, produced, and animated successful shows and films before. The fact that he has been successful in all those arenas before means it's reasonable to expect a certain amount of quality from his next projects. Tommy wiseau is a weird socially inept guy who just happens to be a huge fan of old movies. The room was essentially a student film, it could not have been more low budget and independent/ experimental. It looks like its made by someone who has 0 experience in filmmaking because IT IS made by someone who has 0 experience in filmmaking.
@@dylanfarnum4121 I know that there is a massive gap in terms of talent. I was just pointing out that Wiseau and Breen are two examples that reflect Mark’s statement.
Thing is we know Seth has good emotional writing and acting chops but it feels like since he always tries to go for all-out comedy he never gets to fully embrace that talent. I’d love to see what he manages to come up with if he goes into films sgsin
I actually like that Laurie isn't a straw-woman unreasonable betch. She knows how much Ted means to John. She wants Ted to move out because John does things like be late for work because he's smoking weed before breakfast with Ted. And Ted does do something egregious to prompt John asking him to leave. She even tells Ted he's not the problem and that it's John.
I saw Ted in the theater when I was 8. My grandparents from Europe were visiting America for the first time in over a decade. They took me in and were horrified. My parents thought it was just some teddy bear show for kids. My grandparents said I laughed louder than anyone else in the theater
13:35 Funny you mentioned that. MacFarlane actually tweeted about Scott Pilgrim's bad box office. It said from word to word: "Scott Pilgrim 0, the World 2." It's really satisfying that Scott Pilgrim soon got a massive cult following when it got the home video release... unlike the other film.
The Orville is actually a really good show. I went into it with the mistake of thinking it was just going to be Family Guy, but space and live-action, and so I watched the first episode and was like "Well that wasn't funny at all". But I came back a couple months later and gave it another go and it actually turned out to be really good, and has only gotten better after season 1. It's important to know that it's not Family Guy, it's not a comedy, it's not a parody. There is certainly humour in the show and it can be very funny, but it's more accurate to say the show is a homage to Star Trek The Next Generation made by Seth MacFarlane. There'll be some funny moments, but you'll also just get invested in the story and characters. If you're looking for something like that and you go in with the right expectations, I think you'll enjoy it.
Hey Lois, remember that time that Family Guy was actually an interesting show with great characters and interesting stories and now is basically just really boring with nothing compared to a lot of the episodes from the early 2000s. I'm not saying that all episodes are bad, but comparing episodes from the first 7 or 8 seasons to the most recent seasons, the difference is night and day. There are good episodes after those seasons, but a good majority of them aren't in my opinion.
@@nifralo2752 I will admit FG was funny and watchable for that number of years but it has always been hit and miss. Also, I got tired of their repetitive cutaway gimmick. Same gag over and over again. Plus, Family Guy fixated on Star Wars a little too much.
I remember watching A Million Ways to die in the West with my dad and we both enjoyed it as a spoof of westerns. But I mean, my father and I enjoy a couple of B movies and neither one of us I don’t think would watch it again. A few gags were really good in it, but most of it was largely forgettable. Now The Orville me and my father really adore. It’s got some good jokes and makes fun of some things in Star Trek and such. The characters are fun and actually well written, and it often combined a serious moment with a short, well timed joke. But considering I was reminded of A Million Ways to die in the West by the clothes Seth wears in one episode where they are in a simulator doing a kind of western standoff (which had a really good joke imo where one of the three characters modified the program so they do a dance off.) and me and my father were like “oh yeah. That movie exists. Neat.” Speaks to the sheer forgettability of it.
The scene where Doc Brown hid his DeLorean to avoid being suspected by the cowboy protagonist in _A Million Ways to Die in the West_ gives me a good laugh which it's a nice touch of a cameo to be honest. What is this? A crossover episode?
I haven't seen it yet, but that Orville show is supposedly Seth's best work in a long time, likely because, as with Ted, he's put all his other projects aside and fully committed himself to it.
Well family guy he wanted to stop like 10 years ago. For the western he was doing way to many project to continue that one. Ted 2 seemed to be a cash grab. But projects that Seth seems to like and put work into seemed to usually be pretty good like early family guy,Orville and Ted
The thing about Ted 2 is that it’s paced like a Family Guy episode starting over and over again. A bunch of jokes leading up to discovering something that becomes plot leading into bunch of jokes then discovering something that becomes a new plot leading into a bunch of jokes… etc.
The biggest problem with AMWTDITW is the complete opposite of usual unfunny, bad comedies. Instead of the creator or director not having enough creative control, Seth had too much control. He had so many talented people working on the movie with him and decided to do everything for no reason
Considering how much of a Family Guy fan I was in 2012, I was surprised that I wasn’t interested in seeing Ted despite the film advertising itself from the guy who made Family Guy. Maybe it was because I saw the R-Rating and I knew my parents wouldn’t let me see it
The Orville is actually the complete opposite of A Million Ways to Die in the West because all Seth does is talk about is how *GREAT* the 20th century is (except for the one time he goes to the 20th century, in which he cant complain enough about how terrible it is, which would have made me punch him in the face, after listening to 2 & a half seasons of 20th century envy).
Hot take: Ted 2 was far more enjoyable than the first for me. Neither are masterpieces but, all due respect to those who loved the first Ted (I wish I felt the same), I hated it. The only reason I watched 2 was because my brother and I had planned on both and couldn’t think of anything else we wanted to watch so we bit the bullet and both really enjoyed it. I thought the jokes hit more often and I liked that John actually GREW as a character instead of staying exactly the same and getting everything he wants. Him and Lori getting divorced, forcing him to finally change, even a little, was a good choice.
i kind of agree i mean i love the first one but the second i dont really care about altough it really has some great gags like the TMNT one (or the whole comic con thing) and the liam neesonafter credit scene
Only at 2:57 so far. I may be a little bias because I’m from Massachusetts myself. But I still think it’s pretty funny because Marky Mark brought all of the mannerisms of people I’ve known my whole life
I’ve only binge-watched a few clips of Family Guy, but Seth MacFarlane, while not as talented as Dan Castellaneta, voice of Homer Simpson, sure is a great voice actor and creator! 😃😃😃✊
I would say that Seth, as far as voice-acting goes, is just as talented as Dan. They both do very many different and memorable voices for TV cartoons. While I do prefer the Simpsons, let’s not downplay Seth’s talent.
It’s kinda coincidental that Seth MacFarlene started making movies right when Family Guy’s quality started to decline. No wonder his movies weren’t that good.
Family Guy's decline has been intentional for a while, because they can't get out of making it despite several attempts to. Seth and company have wanted out of Family Guy for a while and to go out on a good note. Too bad they can't.
@TiredNoteOnline American Dad I am still tolerant of watching. IMHO it is better and funnier. Reminds me of Family Guy in it's first three seasons but then they had Mike Barker and Matt Weitzman on the writing staff around that time. After which they moved onto AD which has continued going up in quality year after year while F has been on a downslide for quite some time.
I really liked the first ted i wont lie. It might sound funny but it was one of the best theater experiences i ever had I had never seen a movie theater that packed, they had to have extra staff standing outside of the theater entrance cause there was so many people sneaking in and sitting on the theater steps, i'll never forget thag
It's been awhile, but I remember the Orville being pretty damn good. It's continuing soon, so It'll be a good time to see how well it holds up to how I remember.
A few days ago I went to ask my Spanish teacher a question and I saw on his computer that it was a google search of a million ways to die in the west. It was just interesting to me since I never thought he was in to that kind of stuff
That doesn’t mean he’s into it. Could be anything like wanting to know when it came out because one of his friends brought it up. Or wanted to know who was in it. Or they like it, I dunno.
I haven't seen any of these movies but the one thing I do remember is Ted being advertised a whole lot at the last year my city's comic con was affordable. It was £4-8 for a ticket, maybe an hour queue. Every subsequent year it was £20+ and if you didn't get there at 8am you'd be queueing for three hours (and barely anything changed with the con)
If i was him even after watching this I would feel like I’ve had the greatest career ever, making people laugh creating shows, and keeping people images would be all I want.
Given how Ted wants to have a child in the 2nd film I say they totally missed the chance to make the plot about how Mark and Kunis were pregnant so Ted got worried that Mark would have even less time for him making him compensate by wanting to have a child too, further exploring the need to go separate ways but it not meaning that they can't remain friends..or something..
I graduated high school in 2013 and Ted is forever enshrined in my senior yearbook as the favorite movie of my class. I’m curious how many of my classmates have even thought about this movie in the last 9-10 years
The rant scene with MacFarlane's character in AMWTDITW when he's explaining why the town he lives in sucks is still really funny to me, even if the movie itself is pretty poor.
The one thing I remember most about Ted was not the movie itself, but how Twitter at one point from 2012-2015 was full of those "tweet-stealers" that basically used the same 10 unfunny jokes, and most had Ted as their profile and name
Ted was a pretty memorable film for me. For some strange reason, I watched Flash Gordon one or two weeks prior Ted release. And, omg, I didnt expect Sam Jones in that. I almost choked of laughter in the cinema hahaha
Flash Gordon was why I watched Ted. I grew up a huge Flash Gordon fan and it made me a Queen fan, so once I heard about it, I had to see it for myself.
The Orville is one of the best Star Trek series that isn't Star Trek. It's beautifully done. Several episodes are very well written and they are just fascinating.

A Million Ways to Die in the West can best be described as “the movie where all the actors try except for Seth himself.”

The Orville is actually a really solid show. It doesn’t lean on the comedic aspect nearly as much as you would expect and is actually really engaging.
Yup the Orville has been consistently great and seemed to only receive a larger production budget by the last season
Yeah it's funny I actually just finished watching the series before watching this video and honestly, it was phenomenal
Until you get to the date rape episode and then you realize how scuzzy the show is

It's not great, but I think it was pretty good.

If your boyfriend/girlfriend, basically forces you to quit being friends with your childhood friend so he/she can force you to only pay attention to him/her.

There's a difference between maturity, and having a middleground, and being in a clingy toxic relationship.
Also that relationship would never survive her getting him to kick literally his oldest friend out of the house only to have said friend be murdered soon afterwards.
I think it's mostly the execution. In theory the theme is there, in execution it's more like a magic cop out to have them all have a happy ending. Then again, magic bear happened with literally no explanation so it somehow feels like a cop out... but also totally acceptable in terms of the general movie and the "rules" or lack of them? If it was given at least like 1 or 2 minutes more it probably would have felt more acceptable.
Not gonna lie, Liam Neeson buying Trix cereal was legit one of the funniest things I'd ever seen in a movie. Played it so straightforward. Laughed for several minutes.
And the thunder buddies song that shit was funny as hell. the whole damn theater was laughing their asses off.
@@joshuabryant8504 nah
@joshuabryant8504 yeah that shit was cringe
While I didn't personally laugh at that, I can agree with you on the performance. Even the worst jokes written can be saved by the actors' delivery.
You can't be serious
At least Seth will always have his role in the cinematic masterpiece Sing
I wish he was in sing 2, he's the only good thing in that movie
Playing the worst most arrogant character lmao
@@harrizburhan he isn’t because he died
Mike the mouse moment
@@CartoDarko
Nice pfp
I'm surprised that Illumination's Sing wasn't mentioned especially after the Minions movie comment.
Seth had a prominent role as Mike in the movie essentially playing a variation of Brian Griffin. He was notably missing in the sequel.
Russian bear ate him.
The Orville is actually a really well made show that showcases seth macfarlane at his highest potential both comedically and character wise.
The first Ted was a big thing back in the day, so many people quoting lines from the movie for months. I think it still holds up all these years later
Ow it still hold up. Heck alot of shows and movies are reverting back in cgi quality so ted still looks pretty amazing in terms of cgi lol.
yeah, the dub here in Latin America is what keeps bringing me back to these 2 movies, specially the beginning of the 2nd one with Ted and Tamy-Lyn (who is voiced by the actress of Princess Twilight)
Never fails to make me laugh
The Orville started off as a Star Trek parody , but then quickly evolved into a Star Trek spiritual successor . Just to clarify , it’s a great show !
Seth MacFarlane makes better Star Trek than Star Trek does. If someone had told me that 5 years ago, I couldn't have believed it.
New season is pretty good so far as well
@@Otherworldviewer oh shit didn't know it released already

It’s always pretty fascinating to me when creators from the animation industry branch out into live action films, like with Andrew Stanton making John Carter, or Brad Bird directing Tomorrowland.
Or Disney when they made live-action remakes of Disney animated movie canons.
Brad Bird also directed Mission Impossible IV
@@ccego449 I mean, that's a good movie. Also, Wes Anderson and Tim Burton have made brilliant stop-motion animated films as well.
Or Mike Judge with Office Space
@don't be surprised Stop being so desperate. It's gross and makes me wanna 🤮 on u
I admit it. I liked A Million Ways To Die in The West. I liked the stoner energy of the characters verbalising what audiences think. It's almost like Seth can hear you say "man why is everyone so dirty?" which is a dynamic I don't think has been played with all that much. There is of course action comedies and horror comedies but not many take the time to stop and say "hang on, what is actually going on here? Why are we all like this?"
As an avid family guy fan you’re wrong. The first 3 seasons of family guy actually do have lots of heartfelt stories almost every episode ends with a wholesome family moment. I’d say up to about season 7-8 there’s still plenty of wholesome moments in the series but yeah after about season 10 they completely canned any serious storylines and the show just seems like the family all hate each other. This is likely cause Seth started moving on to other projects more commonly like his heavy focus on the Orville
“As an avid family guy fan”
So a stupid person then? lmao
avid sperg
I think keeping Ted alive was a way to say it's important to not entirely let go of childhood wonder.
I like that a lot a more
Late reply but I wanted to say I disagree. Because the way the movie is written this theme of the value of childhood wonder doesn't work that well. The character of John is already depicted as sort of a man-child at the start of the film who doesn't have his life together. This isn't like Spielberg's Hook where Robin Williams' uptight dad character needs to learn to loosen up and reconcile with his childhood. John has always had Ted since he was young so he's never lost that childhood wonder in order to need to learn the value of it.
Even worse, Ted 2 kind of just doubles down on John's childishness and immaturity by ditching Lori and making him more of a joke character without an actual arc.
I'am the 500. Liker
My headcanon states that Butch Hartman and Seth Mc are the closest thing mark has to parental figures in his life.
yeah, you're right
And Jeff Kenny is his uncle figure
Gets a little weird when you get to the part of the video when he starts getting hard over Seth's good looks.
@@birdboy16
I thought Doug Walker was his uncle?
Well that's kind of fucked, considering what Butch is like.
The directors cut for A Million Ways to Die in the West was infinitely better than the regular version. The transition from Seth’s platonic relationship with Charlize to a romantic one felt way more natural in the directors cut since there was more time to flesh out their characters. The regular one felt more rushed and unnatural.
There is also that dating scene too
You're telling me that studio interference made a movie worse? That's new
@@hunbi1875 I'm shocked as well, seemingly soured Seth to movies where he made the popcorn star trek show.
danggg
Thats an interesting take. From what i read people complained that the movie was TOO long. And TOO drawn out. Personally i liked the movie. If you're a fan of casual comedy films, you likely will not be too big on it. But if you're a fan of Seth's work then you'll enjoy it.
I could watch the first Ted movie a hundred times and still enjoy it, it took such a great spin on seth mcfarlane's comedic style to adapt it well into a live action film
12:53 this hits too close to home.
Seth is a literal non fictional version of Brian, Physically, Mentally and Audibly
i dont know at least seth has talents while Brian does but ironically enough he is just a little better at writer than the dog.....i mean family guy/cleveland show aside the Orville is legit awesome
That sounds insufferable.
"non fictional"
mmh I don't know about that
I mean, isn't Brian his self insert?
I feel with the success of their first Ted movie, Seth got a very overconfident and got too overindulge with the next two films. Ted 2 especially was a mess with turning up his style if humor with none of the charm of the first. Also you should watch the Orville, it's honestly really good and feels more Star Trek than the Recent Official Trek.
i agree on the point with the orville, surprised none of the other comments mentioned it
Yeah, I like The Orville.
i've heard the Oriville is a very dope, & investing show but i only watched it (1) time tbqh.
The Orville is great. Star Trek forgot what it was supposed to be about. The Orville, while different, has that hope for the future that todays sci fi is sorely lacking.
I honestly enjoy all 3 of his live action movies but the first Ted is by far the best one.
Yep
2nd one for me.
They all 🔥🔥 asf
@what now EVERYONE! REPORT THIS LOSER! I'm tried of seeing him Spamming the same dumb comment on different comment sections!!
Ted 1 will always hold a special place in my heart. My best friend had a babysitter when we were really young and one time the babysitter took us to the movies and let us watch Ted lmao
The Orville really surprised me. I checked it out expecting indeed a "Star Trek parody" along the lines of Galaxy Quest or even that Family Guy Star Wars they did, but it's actually a competently run, acted and scripted run sci-fi show with some humor and a lot of heart.
Fun fact: in the Italian Dub of both Ted movies he's dubbed by the same guy who dubs Peter Griffin. Sorta makes sense to me.
Same in the German Dub
That fact wasn't fun at all
I remember watching all 3 of these movies at one point. Obviously, because I wasn't old enough to watch them at the time, I had just thought they were pretty good. Didn't think much about the fact that it was Seth, which was weird cuz I remember going in being excited since they were made by him. But yeah, I just thought they were alright. Of course, the first Ted was by far the best movie out of the bunch.
personally I love them all
I think he makes content that is good to shut your brain off to when you've had a long week. After a long tiring series of unpleasant events you just sit back and put on his work so that you dont have to read too deeply into anything.
In most situations I like deep meaningful movies and stories but I do have the occasional day where this style is prefered.
damn, how young are u?
@@donnyexoduz3356 I thought they were all fun lmao
He's not bad. Could be way worse at a night at the theater.
I totally recommend the Orville. It’s hands down one of my favorite shows, the comedy is there to enhance the story and not the other way around.
I agree! It's one of the best things Seth's made in years!
Orville is excellent! Very glad that season 3 is finally coming.
Best Star Trek show since Enterprise.
The show defending circumcision was a bit messed up though
@@unisonproto I’m not sure I remember that… are you referring to the episode with the trial forcing the baby to do surgery? I don’t think that was an allegory defending circumcision… I feel like it was an important message of accepting someone as they are born despite gender and not forcing a lifestyle on them. Even though the trial votes to keep tradition, ultimately the message was showing how messed up it is to do that, not defending it.
You describing watching A Million Ways to Die in the West with your dad is exactly like what happened to me... I dragged my dad to cheapy theaters so I could watch South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut and he promptly fell asleep about a third of the way through the movie. 🤣
Blame Canada
I hope I'm fortunate enough to fail as successfully as Seth one day. He's doing pretty good for himself and I'm sure we will see more films from him soon enough.
I feel bad that "The Orville" didn't get the appreciation it deserved. EXCELLENT SHOW. It was funny, clever, payed homage to past sci fi wonderfully, was well made and it wasn't just a comedy, it was also a really compelling story and just super enjoyable to watch. That show did not get the appreciation it deserved. Edit: I've been informed that it hasn't actually been cancelled, so thanks.
It *is* still going.
New season coming in June or July I believe. It’s definitely still going.
@@brookelynsmith9583 June second and not only that's it's season 3, no clue why this person thought it ended unless they assumed that the lack of orville after season 2 was because of cancellation rather than the pandemic lol
@@dooplon5083 Yes that's exactly what I assumed. There was a pretty decent period of time where there was little to no update on whether the show would continue and eventually I just stopped checking. Really glad to know it's coming back. It's a great show.
What the hell are you talking about, its like top 15 IMDB in the world, and still going, pretty darn successfull
Ted 2 is literally an episode of family guy padded with filler. Seth already did the whole "realizing you are legally considered property and suing for personhood" thing with Brian Griffin.
Alot of the jokes were taken from classic FG
I think that was the problem Ted, it felt like higher stakes family guy episode, having Ted sound like Peter didn't help either. But the first Ted felt like an assured movie, but it also showed that all Seth can offer is live action family guy humor, A Million Ways to Die in the West is basically a Brian/Stewie time travel plot to the old west. Ted essentially is a sentient Rupert movie
I loved Ted 1 and Ted 2 as well as A Million Ways to Die in the West. He did not fail in my eyes.
Me too dude, I actually like his movies
I'm shocked to learn people have so much distain for them. A million ways to die in the west in I'm t5 movies
I remember only one joke from Ted and that was when Ted says "C'mon, I do _not_ sound that much like Peter Griffin" in the background of a party scene. It was funny because back then meta humor hadn't been done to death yet.
So yeah, one laugh.
Didn't even remember the plot like two weeks later.
Good for you.
“How the fuck does one man write, direct, produce, and star in his own film, have so much creative freedom, and have it turn out so bad?”
Well, let me tell you about a couple blokes named Tommy Wiseau and Neil Breen…
Neil Breen is a legend.
Tommy wiseau is completely different than Seth. Seth is a successful creative, having written, directed, voice acted, acted, produced, and animated successful shows and films before. The fact that he has been successful in all those arenas before means it's reasonable to expect a certain amount of quality from his next projects. Tommy wiseau is a weird socially inept guy who just happens to be a huge fan of old movies. The room was essentially a student film, it could not have been more low budget and independent/ experimental. It looks like its made by someone who has 0 experience in filmmaking because IT IS made by someone who has 0 experience in filmmaking.
@@dylanfarnum4121 I know that there is a massive gap in terms of talent. I was just pointing out that Wiseau and Breen are two examples that reflect Mark’s statement.
@@mojavefry2617 fair enough, you're correct. Cheers mate 👍
What about Mel Brooks?
Thing is we know Seth has good emotional writing and acting chops but it feels like since he always tries to go for all-out comedy he never gets to fully embrace that talent. I’d love to see what he manages to come up with if he goes into films sgsin
I actually like that Laurie isn't a straw-woman unreasonable betch. She knows how much Ted means to John. She wants Ted to move out because John does things like be late for work because he's smoking weed before breakfast with Ted. And Ted does do something egregious to prompt John asking him to leave. She even tells Ted he's not the problem and that it's John.
And the fact that mila kunis is beautiful doesnt hurt lol
*Seth is such a legend, the beer man himself saved him from the mean old planes.*
Seth has an AMAZING singing voice. So talented.
I saw Ted in the theater when I was 8. My grandparents from Europe were visiting America for the first time in over a decade. They took me in and were horrified. My parents thought it was just some teddy bear show for kids. My grandparents said I laughed louder than anyone else in the theater
Okay
Did everyone clap too?
@@sophie1060 nah, this sounds reasonable and stupid😂
The Orville is actually some of Seth's best work. Once you get passed the first episode, it's actually pretty clever
One thing I love about the Orville is that there is no cynicism in it, unlike in Discovery or Picard.
I didn't even know he did film other than Ted, damn.
Sing but yeah other than Ted he is only known as a Tv show
Same. I knew about them at one point but forgot all but the first Ted existed.
13:35 Funny you mentioned that. MacFarlane actually tweeted about Scott Pilgrim's bad box office. It said from word to word: "Scott Pilgrim 0, the World 2."
It's really satisfying that Scott Pilgrim soon got a massive cult following when it got the home video release... unlike the other film.
23:42 bro did NOT know the show was actually gonna be peak
fr whole show sent me dying of laughter
The Orville is actually a really good show. I went into it with the mistake of thinking it was just going to be Family Guy, but space and live-action, and so I watched the first episode and was like "Well that wasn't funny at all". But I came back a couple months later and gave it another go and it actually turned out to be really good, and has only gotten better after season 1. It's important to know that it's not Family Guy, it's not a comedy, it's not a parody. There is certainly humour in the show and it can be very funny, but it's more accurate to say the show is a homage to Star Trek The Next Generation made by Seth MacFarlane. There'll be some funny moments, but you'll also just get invested in the story and characters. If you're looking for something like that and you go in with the right expectations, I think you'll enjoy it.
I mean, the fact that he was going to branch out and do other things shows that he has some kind of guts.
my guess is he didnt wanna be solely known and remembered as the Family Guy guy
Hey Lois, remember that time that Family Guy was actually an interesting show with great characters and interesting stories and now is basically just really boring with nothing compared to a lot of the episodes from the early 2000s. I'm not saying that all episodes are bad, but comparing episodes from the first 7 or 8 seasons to the most recent seasons, the difference is night and day. There are good episodes after those seasons, but a good majority of them aren't in my opinion.
Wow, that was crazier than the time that adult animation wasn’t dominated by cheap ripoffs of other, more successful cartoons!
Ngl every season other than 1-3 immediately started plummeting into downfall
new, & up-to-date Family Guy is eh but it just isn't that A1, or genius anymore in my point-of-view xD. 😂
@@hpswagcraft I think the middle seasons 5-8 were the best. I watched Daminit Janet from season 3 and no joke I fell asleep
@@nifralo2752 I will admit FG was funny and watchable for that number of years but it has always been hit and miss. Also, I got tired of their repetitive cutaway gimmick. Same gag over and over again. Plus, Family Guy fixated on Star Wars a little too much.
8:37 certified hood classic line
I remember watching A Million Ways to die in the West with my dad and we both enjoyed it as a spoof of westerns. But I mean, my father and I enjoy a couple of B movies and neither one of us I don’t think would watch it again. A few gags were really good in it, but most of it was largely forgettable. Now The Orville me and my father really adore. It’s got some good jokes and makes fun of some things in Star Trek and such. The characters are fun and actually well written, and it often combined a serious moment with a short, well timed joke. But considering I was reminded of A Million Ways to die in the West by the clothes Seth wears in one episode where they are in a simulator doing a kind of western standoff (which had a really good joke imo where one of the three characters modified the program so they do a dance off.) and me and my father were like “oh yeah. That movie exists. Neat.” Speaks to the sheer forgettability of it.
The scene where Doc Brown hid his DeLorean to avoid being suspected by the cowboy protagonist in _A Million Ways to Die in the West_ gives me a good laugh which it's a nice touch of a cameo to be honest. What is this? A crossover episode?
Why did you type so weird
Go away Mr. Friendship!
@what now I'm not falling for these Indian motivation videos
@@buttnakedsnake9357 If you're referring to the end bit, it's a Bojack Horseman reference
Why are you here? Just to suffer?
I haven't seen it yet, but that Orville show is supposedly Seth's best work in a long time, likely because, as with Ted, he's put all his other projects aside and fully committed himself to it.
Well family guy he wanted to stop like 10 years ago. For the western he was doing way to many project to continue that one. Ted 2 seemed to be a cash grab. But projects that Seth seems to like and put work into seemed to usually be pretty good like early family guy,Orville and Ted
The thing about Ted 2 is that it’s paced like a Family Guy episode starting over and over again. A bunch of jokes leading up to discovering something that becomes plot leading into bunch of jokes then discovering something that becomes a new plot leading into a bunch of jokes… etc.
A Million Ways to Die in the West is not a bad movie tho, it has comedy, it has historical facts made interesting, plot is good, flow of story is good
2:14 Also that awkward moment when it's 2022 and you can't even take a screenshot in HD.
“Hey Lois, remember the time Seth Mcfarlane directed 3 theatrical live action films in the spand of thee years”.
I love how people put compliments of your analysis before they’ve had time to watch the video 😂
i can relate to the days when I had to wait till I was old enough to watch a movie like this 😂
same but this one of the first movies i got in despire being underage a bit lol
I usually never comment
But the improv club bit in Ted 2 was so funny….”you peoplr are monsters” end of the bit is just so natural
I loved it
The biggest problem with AMWTDITW is the complete opposite of usual unfunny, bad comedies. Instead of the creator or director not having enough creative control, Seth had too much control. He had so many talented people working on the movie with him and decided to do everything for no reason
Considering how much of a Family Guy fan I was in 2012, I was surprised that I wasn’t interested in seeing Ted despite the film advertising itself from the guy who made Family Guy.
Maybe it was because I saw the R-Rating and I knew my parents wouldn’t let me see it
That was the year I went off Family Guy.
I remember when everyone in my primary school though Ted was the funniest thing ever because it had swearing
I remember when everyone in my secondary school thought the same
You watched Ted in primary school? 💀
Accurate
Ah yes, Ted, that one movie series that had a cross-promotion with Danganronpa in Japan. (I’m not joking, look it up)
Really?
@@MASTEROFEVIL ruclips.net/video/BHKIF5KqUyA/видео.html
Wow.
4:13 They should make Brian Pregnant next.
The Orville is actually the complete opposite of A Million Ways to Die in the West because all Seth does is talk about is how *GREAT* the 20th century is (except for the one time he goes to the 20th century, in which he cant complain enough about how terrible it is, which would have made me punch him in the face, after listening to 2 & a half seasons of 20th century envy).
I remember Ted being so huge at the time that even my English 2 teacher mentioned that the ending was so dramatic and insane lmao
Hot take: Ted 2 was far more enjoyable than the first for me. Neither are masterpieces but, all due respect to those who loved the first Ted (I wish I felt the same), I hated it. The only reason I watched 2 was because my brother and I had planned on both and couldn’t think of anything else we wanted to watch so we bit the bullet and both really enjoyed it. I thought the jokes hit more often and I liked that John actually GREW as a character instead of staying exactly the same and getting everything he wants. Him and Lori getting divorced, forcing him to finally change, even a little, was a good choice.
Ted 2 was a lot more funnier because it was mostly gags the first one was pretty much about friendships and relationships
Agreed. I saw the 1st one as a woman basically telling her man to choose between his friends and her. And we all know that always ends in success...
But was still funny asf
i kind of agree i mean i love the first one but the second i dont really care about altough it really has some great gags like the TMNT one (or the whole comic con thing) and the liam neesonafter credit scene
I love how half the movies were (need to wait much later to watch until finally adulthood) Lol!
susdow
Half? It was literally all the movies
Only at 2:57 so far.
I may be a little bias because I’m from Massachusetts myself. But I still think it’s pretty funny because Marky Mark brought all of the mannerisms of people I’ve known my whole life
You know you were raised bad when you could watch Ted at 10 years old
Doesn't hurt to try something new, which Seth isn't afraid of
I’ve only binge-watched a few clips of Family Guy, but Seth MacFarlane, while not as talented as Dan Castellaneta, voice of Homer Simpson, sure is a great voice actor and creator! 😃😃😃✊
I would say that Seth, as far as voice-acting goes, is just as talented as Dan. They both do very many different and memorable voices for TV cartoons. While I do prefer the Simpsons, let’s not downplay Seth’s talent.
@@weathermansam2 Yeah, sure! 😄😄😄
@@weathermansam2 I just feel like people give him too much crap for his style of humour, but he’s actually quite talented! 😉

@@ironmaster6496 I agree with that, I know people hate Mike from thing but the little dude has heart on stage!
It’s kinda coincidental that Seth MacFarlene started making movies right when Family Guy’s quality started to decline. No wonder his movies weren’t that good.
Family Guy's decline has been intentional for a while, because they can't get out of making it despite several attempts to. Seth and company have wanted out of Family Guy for a while and to go out on a good note. Too bad they can't.
@@michaelpino550 I know, right because the Fox Network won't let him.
@TiredNoteOnline American Dad I am still tolerant of watching. IMHO it is better and funnier. Reminds me of Family Guy in it's first three seasons but then they had Mike Barker and Matt Weitzman on the writing staff around that time. After which they moved onto AD which has continued going up in quality year after year while F has been on a downslide for quite some time.
Buried inside the two hours of "A Million Ways to Die in the West" is a classic 90-minute Western comedy trying to get out.
I really liked the first ted i wont lie. It might sound funny but it was one of the best theater experiences i ever had I had never seen a movie theater that packed, they had to have extra staff standing outside of the theater entrance cause there was so many people sneaking in and sitting on the theater steps, i'll never forget thag
Well, if Seth's TV career fails too, he can always go to Broadway.
He'd kill on The Great White Way.
It's been awhile, but I remember the Orville being pretty damn good. It's continuing soon, so It'll be a good time to see how well it holds up to how I remember.
The Orville is actually fantastic

@@Radio_CosmicRay
Cultured individual, I appreciate you.
I'll probably rewatch it again. I remember liking it alot so yea.
A few days ago I went to ask my Spanish teacher a question and I saw on his computer that it was a google search of a million ways to die in the west. It was just interesting to me since I never thought he was in to that kind of stuff
That doesn’t mean he’s into it. Could be anything like wanting to know when it came out because one of his friends brought it up. Or wanted to know who was in it. Or they like it, I dunno.
I haven't seen any of these movies but the one thing I do remember is Ted being advertised a whole lot at the last year my city's comic con was affordable. It was £4-8 for a ticket, maybe an hour queue. Every subsequent year it was £20+ and if you didn't get there at 8am you'd be queueing for three hours (and barely anything changed with the con)
His TV stuff is pure gold so I think he's alright.
If i was him even after watching this I would feel like I’ve had the greatest career ever, making people laugh creating shows, and keeping people images would be all I want.
Holy crap, Lois! Our creator had a film career!
Hey Lois, remember the time we watched Ted 2?
I like how you made your avatar cross-eyed for that one bit. More variety and expression is always welcome
LS Mark really didn't think about what could happen in 2024, with the new Ted show.
Seth MacFarlane media is like the Sonic franchise: Good or bad, the music always goes hard
Given how Ted wants to have a child in the 2nd film I say they totally missed the chance to make the plot about how Mark and Kunis were pregnant so Ted got worried that Mark would have even less time for him making him compensate by wanting to have a child too, further exploring the need to go separate ways but it not meaning that they can't remain friends..or something..
I graduated high school in 2013 and Ted is forever enshrined in my senior yearbook as the favorite movie of my class. I’m curious how many of my classmates have even thought about this movie in the last 9-10 years
To be honest I completely forgot this movie's existence
The rant scene with MacFarlane's character in AMWTDITW when he's explaining why the town he lives in sucks is still really funny to me, even if the movie itself is pretty poor.
18:13 So like... didn't your mum or your dad ever step in to say, "No, you're too young to watch that"?
The one thing I remember most about Ted was not the movie itself, but how Twitter at one point from 2012-2015 was full of those "tweet-stealers" that basically used the same 10 unfunny jokes, and most had Ted as their profile and name
Hey Lois remember when LS mark explained all of Seth McFarlands failed film careers?
Ted was a pretty memorable film for me. For some strange reason, I watched Flash Gordon one or two weeks prior Ted release. And, omg, I didnt expect Sam Jones in that. I almost choked of laughter in the cinema hahaha
One of the best scenes from the original Ted is the entire partying bit with Flash Gordon 🤣
Flash Gordon was why I watched Ted. I grew up a huge Flash Gordon fan and it made me a Queen fan, so once I heard about it, I had to see it for myself.
The Orville is pretty good, especially from season 2 onward. If you like the old Star Trek series, the Orville is the perfect nostalgia series
The Orville is one of the best Star Trek series that isn't Star Trek. It's beautifully done. Several episodes are very well written and they are just fascinating.
The Ted TV show is amazing bro Seth def getting a comeback with this show .
