Futurama (it's back!)

The Futurama/Bender Appreciation Thread

Bender is the true P-I-M-P!

Recognize!

"BITE MY SHINY METAL ASS!!"

Love this show. The Crew is hilarious, sent to do the deeds of a senile old man. Zoidberg is disgustingly pathetic. I even know an Amy Wong in real life too.

What I loved about Bender is his love of the word "ASS" ... esp. today's episode where they go to war against the Planet of the Balls and he was armed with the bomb that would detonate when he would say his favorite word.



His Top 10 words:

10. Chump
9. Chumpette
8. Yours
7. Up
6. Pimpmobile
5. Bite
4. My
3. Shiny
2. Daffodil
1. Ass.

Fuck, the whole episode was hilarious with Zapp's gay tendancies and the entire reference to balls euphemisms.  :lol:

My all-time favorite animated TV show... I'm so crushed it got cancelled. I bought Volume 3 of the DVDs and every time I watch I find something else new or funny in each episode. It's my newest treasured possession.  :oops: Not to mention the commentaries are freaking AWESOME.

I now have crushes on John DiMaggio, Billy West & David X. Cohen like whoa. And maybe a girlcrush on Lauren Tom. Amy<3

So come on, any other fans in mourning like I am?

Haven't seen much of it to be honest. It was on a network that was against another network that had The Simpsons at about the same time, and the collosus that is the Simpsons shouldn't be messed with, so it got cancelled here fairly early.

OMG! It's cancelled?! :cry:

I *loved* that show, when I was actually watching it. ^^,,

I especially liked DiMaggio for his roles in Final Fantasy X/X-2. [<3's Wakka]

Yeah, it got cancelled... 2003. Sigh. Dark times.

So many awesome quotes, though. And so many awesome characters.

"Why am I naked and sticky? Did I miss something fun?"

"I find the most erotic part of a woman is the boobies."

Kinda old piece of news but a sad one indeed.

I think Futurama was way better than the Simpsons, at least when they were showing both series here. But maybe it's just good that Futurama ended before becoming boring. Now it's always remembered as pure greatness in animation scene.

Yep, Futurama was great, not only because it was consistently awesome (with a few minor exceptions), but also because it actually felt like it was going somewhere...

Yeah I know it's been a few years but they've been playing it every night on Teletoon and I just forked over 50$ for the 3rd boxset of DVDs.

I love that the finale was left open-ended as well... Billy West (voice of Fry/Zoidberg/Farnsworth/Zapp) has said that they're in talks to do some direct-to-DVD movies... I so hope that's true.

My alltime favorite episodes... hmmm...

Hell is Other Robots: MUSICAL! MUSICAL! The Robot Devil was one of the greatest reoccuring characters ever.
A Flight to Remember: The Titanic episode. Oh man one of my favorite S2 episodes.
Anthology of Interest 1: Impulsive Leela, Al Gore, and giant Bender. Classic.
Love & Rocket: Where Bender dates the Planet Express ship. "This concept of "wuv" both confuses and infuriates us!" LMAO I <3 Lrrr.
The Sting: Once I finally figured out what the fuck was going on... AWWWW.

But seriously I think there were only about 3 episodes I didn't absolutely love. And even those episodes had those jokes that just crack you up and don't make the episode a total waste of time. And the voice actors are so freaking talented it's INSANE.

Really? It's not for me. o.O;; Last ngiht @ 8 it was Hell is Other Robots, then at 10 it was Obsoletely Famous, which was a Season5 episode.

diagong that ep was hilarious. "WAR OVER; BALLS THOROUGHLY LICKED" LMAO.

The episode I hate hate hate is Jurassic Bark because it is so depressing that I want to die. Seriously. While The Sting, Luck of the Fryrish & Leela's Homeworld were sad, they also had funny parts. Jurassic Bark just ripped my heart out and stomped on it with Leela's boots (the ones with the crazy green stripe on them) and made me bawl and feel thisbig.

finally rerunning 2003/2002 seasons again. I never seen these ones. Teletoon East does rerun same ep. 3 times in one night.

The Fry dying was a good one. They probably gonna hook up in the end huh?

I did love the return of Nibbler and his planet. The reason Fry is so dumb and immune to the Brains was his "...past nastification" XD XD

Some of my favorite lines are Morbo lines.

"Hello little man... I WILL DESTROY YOU!"

"Morbo is pleased but sticky."

"WINDMILLS DO NOT WORK THAT WAY! GOOD NIGHT!"

"It's fine, it's - I WILL DESTROY YOU!"

"Welcome to Entertainment And Earth Invasion Tonight. Across the galaxy, my people are completing the mighty space fleet that will exterminate the human race! But first, this news from Tinseltown."

Like DJ Vikitty said, they want to make three Futurama straight to DVD movies, over the next few years. The last I read they were still negotating their budget with FOX, but IMDB says it's in production (even if they aren't always right). Lets all cross our fingers!

What was that thing Morbo did that made his co-anchor scream her head off??

That would be so good. There was no closure...I'm finally listening to all these "alternative" Futurama  themes that DJ Vikitty has been playing. :lmao:
