Futurama

["Fire Fist" Ace]

So watched the movie. Was all right; could have been better, could have been worse.

Some incontinuities/trivia I noticed:

Spoiler:

1. In the beginning of the episode, Hermes states himself to be Grade 34. But in the Episode where they went to the central bureaucracy, he gets demoted to grade 36 at the end.

2. Fry had already been seen naked; once in the hottubbing episode and the other in another incident. Wouldn't they have noticed the tattoo then?

3. In the episode where Bender finds religion, he repeats the same binary code that was on Fry's ass.

4. The whole reason Yancy named his son Phillip J. Fry was because Fry went missing...

5. In the episode where everyone gets a tax return, Fry didn't get along too well with the Killer Whale (Although the movie had a Narwahl).

6. When Hermes' head was dropped in the jar, it didn't have a neck collar. Then it switches away and switches back, and you see his neck collar.

7. The Mona Lisa is seen in another episode, meaning they still had the original and there was no reason for Bender to go back in time and steal it.

8. When Bender goes back to Ancient Egypt, he goes to 1351 BCE. But the Pharaoh at the time, Amenhotep III, didn't die till 1350 BCE.

Holy Shit~! Cartman~! How'd I Miss That?!?!?!? =d~!

[changsho]

Oh lord
What has science (fiction) done!? D8

[Taleran]

what you mean you guys didn't notice that on the 1st watch?


I wonder how many times Torbo's Executive Powder was used in the movie

[Taleran]

the movie was good

not as funny as the 1st one, but I believe that is more due to the fact that the 1st movie was the 1st time seeing Futurama in so long


this one was great though

This one wasn´t so bad, but it was a bit plain, it didn´t have any exciting scene like the first one...

[MushroomBoy]

i can't wait to get it tuesday. >=D

[Nobodyman]

Just watched BWBB. Not as good as BBS, but still pretty good.

Some things that disappointed me:
- I had hoped it would end on a cliffhanger like the first one, since there are two more movies left (though there are still some unresolved matters, such as Kif still being mad at Amy)
- Kinda wish they had left Yivo as more of a metaphor for heaven, rather than him being literally heaven.
- Fry dating Colleen, and Leela still being more resistant didn't make a lot of sense to me, based on what happened in BBS.

Things I liked/loved:

-Everything between the universe ascending into Yivo and the robots fighting Yivo was absolutely awesome.
-Glad they didn't really kill off Kif.
-I liked the clever parallelism between Colleens mutlitple boyfriends and Yivo loving the whole universe.
-Bender giving his son (which he had, apparently) to the robot devil was absolutely hysterical. Overall, this movie didn't have as many laughs as BBS, but this scene made me LOL, whereas BBS did not.

Ovrall, another great addition, and I can't wait for Bender's Game.

[Malintex_Terek]

Bender's Game.

What a funny name for the final movie.

[Nobodyman]

What a funny name for the final movie.

No, there are four movies and Bender's Game is the third and next one to come out. The final movie (which I suppose will conclude Futurama) is Into the Wild Green Yonder.

[nobody]

So...anyone watched Into the Wild Green Yonder yet?

Suppose I'll put my impressions in a spoiler tag:

Spoiler:

I really loved this one. After BWBB and Bender's Game, which I didn't like as much as the first one, ITWGY is on par with BBS, in my opinion. The story about the golf course and the story about the Life Force/Chi fit together really well, and the best thing about it was that anyone could've turned out to be the Dark One. Since it's Futurama, I wouldn't have been surprised if one of the cast who has been there all the time would've been the big bad. Glad it was someone else, though, was a nice twist. I suspected Scruffy...

About the ending:
- Kif and Amy are still (back?) together!
- Fry/Leela ending, what else is there to say?
- The "Go! Go! Go!" before flying into the black hole was a very fitting
ending. As if to say, "move on forwards", "continue".

[Nobodyman]

Yep, I went and bought ITWGY the other, and I think it was definitely better than the last two. It did have it's share of problems (the whole Fry/Leela ending seemed kind of forced), but overall it was very worthy of the series. And I like how they ended it with them going into a wormhole, their fate uncertain, since that's pretty much where the show stands now. This could very well be the last we see of Futurama, but there also have been some rumors of them continuing it (webisodes, movie, 6th season, etc.) but either way this was a great note to end on.

[KrnxAJa]

sorry to be off topic, not talking about the movie and all, but my favorite episode is the bone-itis one.

yeah.

[MiniLuffy]

Is the show permanently over? It was good. Really really good. How could anyone forget Bender? Or especially when he's with Fry. FFFFFFFFUKKEN AWESSSSSSUUUUUMMMM!!!!!!11

[kewl0210]

They said there are talks with Fox or someone that there could be a season 6. I remember hearing, I'll find a source...

Right, this one:

He mentions it about a minute in.

But no decision's been made yet, according to http://www.gotfuturama.com/

[Gekko135]

Nobodyman, I also agree that Fry/Leela ending was very forced... but for having waited many years for that moment, i'll say that it's good enough to satisfy.

I thought this movie was much better than "Bender's Game"

still... of the 4 movie releases, the best was "Bender's Big Score"

Good News Everyone! Just popping in to remind everyone:

Futurama is Back! Season Premiere June 24 at 10P on Comedy Central

Will it deliver? Will the voice actors retain their character? Will I Am?!

Guess time will tell. Time or tiny radioactive space lice.

[goty]

The thing i'm most curious is regarding the animation, well, the overall quality.
I recall Futurama was fairly high budget for tv animation, moreso than The Simpsons...will it be able to remain the same on Comedy Central?
