I loved the second one, as I did the first, but what bothered me was the absence of Nibbler, I love that little guy and missed him.

Carbon Neutrality sucks.

What makes a man turn Carbon Neutral? Lust for gold? Power? Or were they born with a heart full of Carbon Neutrality?

How did it take so long for someone to make that joke?

Bender's Game is out and IMO is better than The Beast with a Billion Backs, but still inferior to the amazing Bender's Big Score.

I bought it, but I haven't watched it, yet. I'm looking for a good opportunit, or a day when I don't have any work to do and a chick to watch it with.

EasyCure · « **Reply #55 on:** November 11, 2008, 06:03:43 PM »

Hows about you do the chick and watch the work?

I just watched Bender's Game, it was amazing. Maybe I'm weird, but it's been a long time since I laughed as hard as I did at the The Scary Door part.

The movies on average have been subpar. I think the episode where Bender is turned into a human is way more hilarious than any of the movies. That said I did like the first one; the second one was good but less funny; and the third was even less funny.

P.S. The Scary Door part was genius. It always has been, but I rewinded this particular one three or four times.

Hopefully they'll return to form with a more episodic format, I felt the had trouble trying to fit Futurama into a movie. The movies all felt like episodes streeeetched out to try and make a movie.

Hm i think you might be right, but to be honest i only saw 2 of the movies shown on comedy central so far; Benders Big Score and The Beast with...

of the two though, i don't think Benders Big Score really had that problem and fit quiet well in the movie format. My only real gripe about it is i never bothered getting the dvd so i've only ever seen it on Comedy Central so the commercial breaks are annoooying!

Does G4 still show Arrested Development? Does this breathe hope into that getting revived too?
Maybe more networks can pick up on past FOX failures and give them the success that they deserve.

GJ for Futurama though, I look forward to their return, but I bet FOX will add them into the Animation Domination Sunday Nite Line Up and make Comedy Central air new episodes a week or 2 later (like they did with FG & CN)

Futurama is one of the few cartoons I actually kind of like, since it isn't incredibly random (Family Guy), offensive for no reason (American Dad), growing stale (The Simpsons), or overly preachy (South Park).

Comedy Central bought the rights to new episodes, so as long as that contract exists Fox can't do that (Cartoon Network only bought syndication rights to Family Guy). I hope 20th Century Fox (which does own the show) reaches a deal to air it on FOX too since I don't have cable.

Family Guy is a mixed bag. Some episodes are great, others suck. I don't like how they always put down Meg, and I hate how Seth MacFarlane tries to make marijuana use look acceptable. How is American Dad offensive? They have jokes for liberals, democrats, men, women, pro-life, pro-choice, etc. They pretty much go to everyone. The Simpsons may not be at its funniest anymore, but it's still very good. South Park is rarely ever preachy and they still show that they will take shots at anyone.

As for the movies, I have seen the first 3. The only one I didn't like was "Futurama: Bender's Game", it was so boring.

I haven't watched very many episodes of those cartoons so those are just my first impressions of them. But it seems like Futurama can be funny without being offensive, having shock value, or making a statement, and that is generally my idea of a good comedy.

TJ Spyke · « **Reply #70 on:** June 10, 2009, 06:03:41 PM »

I do love Futurama, I own all 4 Volumes of DVDs and have seen every episode dozens of times. Of the 72 episodes, I think there is only 1 that I don't like (the one where Bender turns into a were-car).

There's still the Arrested Development movie coming. That could save the show.

But **** yeah, for more Futurama!

Except that it's been confirmed that they haven't even started writing the script yet, so it's a long way off. I also doubt that they will revive the show (although I would love that).
