That's the new Naked Gun movie.

It is genuinely so good. I wasn't expecting that out of yet another Hollywood sequel.

/uj Seth MacFarlane produced it. Him being attached to a project in a writing or producing role means it will be gold, he has the Midas touch. Even in Sing he gives one of his best performances because he gets to do something he’s passionate about, doing Sinatra

The only thing he hasn’t been able to fix is Family Guy, but I feel like if he came back as head writer for just one season he could set them down the right course

While we give a lot of credit to Seth MacFarlane, he's been pretty vocal that he didn't do much, and what he did do was stop the studio from interfering by throwing his heavy weight around so that Akiva from The Lonely Island could write and direct it without interference.

You can definitely feel the Lonely Island influence, but Seth is just good at picking the right projects when he’s not the one in charge (except the Ted show, where he was the one in charge)

I mean, that is a very important job and part of the movie success
