Good News Everyone!
At saturdays comic-con, which i really wanted to be at, was the first official unvailing of the new futurama movies, which included a conference with the cast and some crew and a 5 minute trailer. I know there are a few futurama fans here so in case you didn't know:
Bender's Big Score, the first in the series, is to be released 27th November (for the US at least, you can pre-order), and has the following plot outline:
[SPOILER]When the evil naked aliens launch a cyber-attack on Planet Express, they make a shocking discovery: the secret of time travel, mysteriously tattooed on Fry's buttocks. Using their devious nudist software to control Bender, they repeatedly send the beer-fueled robot back in time to loot Earth of its greatest treasures. Bender's rampage through history has shocking repercussions when he encounters Al Gore (guest-starring as himself) during the 2000 Presidential recount. Meanwhile, Leela finds true love, a beloved crew member suffers an embarrassing decapitation, and Fry learns deep secrets about his destiny and his buttocks.[/SPOILER]
There is also to be included in the dvd a 22 minute episode of "Everybody loves Hypnotoad". No joke.
I have seen bits of the trailer and the "Box Fox" was hilarious, I don't know if that is part of the movie, or if it was just something put into entertain the comic-con crowd. Either way i hope they finalise a uk release date so i can hurry and pre-order it!
Welcome back, Futurama.

DVD Extras (list might change):
A live math lecture on mathematical references in Futurama by Dr. Sarah Greenwald.
This is just sweet, for all the wrong reasons. I've seen most of this stuff on the internet already, though.

After the comedy abortion that was the fourth season of Family Guy, I can't help but be highly skeptical about revivals of TV shows I like.
Though that said, I never found Futurama funny, so at least they can't lose the humor. They could certainly lose the charm, though.

It seems they've reverted back to new-Simpsons-style "forget making clever character-based jokes, lets just insult Fox a lot" for the trailer. I hope that isnt too indicative of the new episodes :erg:
I remain optimistic however.
