Last week I saw the latest Family Guy movie 'Blue Harvest' which is basically Family Guy Does Star Wars. It's a very funny film but did lead me to judge just how far can people go when making spoof movies. The storyline was so similar, even scenes were done with so much attention to detail in terms of the original and I just wondered what the law is on things like this. Would the makers of Family Guy had to have paid for the rights or can they get away with it? It's not too dissimilar to spoof movies like 'Scary Movie' or 'Disaster Movie'. Does anyone know the law on this type of thing?
