Bender's Big Score - Futurama Feature Length DVD

October 7th 2007 22:20
Bender's Big Score Futurama DVD
Futurama fans can finally stop squealing themselves to sleep. Though the show was cancelled by Fox, legions of fans howling for more Futurama compelled Comedy Central to buy the series.

And even more: they're putting out a feature length DVD called Bender's Big Score. And then three more features after that.

It's a smart move, if you ask me. Instead of pulling a Simpsons (jumping the shark for over 10 seasons, then putting out a hyped-up movie), these crafty fellows are sneaking a DVD in your stockings for Christmas.



Will it be funny? I don't know... I feel that the series has lost its edge over time, but diehard fans of the show swear their first-born children on it. With the move to Comedy Central, perhaps the humour will get a revitalizing boost of creativity.

Hi Cib,
Ive been waiting on this one since Tracy offered a heads up a few months ago...Personally Season 4 was my favourite year for the show so I have high hopes the film will be witty sci-fi comedy that voyages beyond already established humour borders.

I'll be buying it as well. Bender is (was) one of the best comedy characters on TV -- with by far the best laugh.

JD, we'll see how it turns out. Comedy Central does a good job of listening to its fans, it seems!

Jon, Bender is a great character. Well, other than that Zap Brannigan guy. 'Can't you say it a little more.... sexfully?'

I live by the teaching of Bender.

This looks like something I need to send a letter to Santa about.

damo, I guess that depends if you've been bad or good this year...

'Can't you say it a little more.... sexfully?'

To rip-off another cartoon character:

"...Best line ever..."



I'll have to hit up JB for a Futurama fix.

I'm really looking forward to this - I too thought that some of the best episodes were in the fourth (technically fourth and fifth) seasons, so I'm hoping that this will continue the high standard.
