From the usual internet hives of scum and villainy. I've not watched it yet. I know people have been very critical of the previous two Futurama TV movies, but I enjoyed them and am looking forward to this one.

Can I get confirmation that the 'new' series on Sky One is actually just the DVDs in episode form?

Yes you can, I've seen some of them. I didn't spot any new material, although I read a while back that was the plan.

And they're showing a new bit every week. Fuck off, Sky.

I loved Futurama when it was on and now I love the film type things even more! I'm throwing my hat into the ring of people looking forward to it!

They've chopped the movies up into bits... and it seems they show a new bit every Sunday. Hence they can fuck off.

You know that they were made with this possibility in mind, right?

CraveOnline: Are they really full movies or just three episodes together?

Matt Groening: We're writing them as movies and then we're going to chop them up, reconfigure them, write new material and try to make them work as separate episodes.

Yaaaay!!! I love futurama, this is good news for me

Watched this last night and it was excellent. Sagged a bit in the 2nd half, but it's back up to the quality of when the series ended.

Unless you're in the 'no more Fururama' faction, having new 30 minute Futurama shows on TV is a very, very good thing for the future of the cartoon.

Watched this about a week back.

It was pretty good, benders big score was probably better IMO
but it was better then the beast with 2 backs

Dimrill · **Posted:** Fri Nov 07, 2008 20:05

Now see here, I thought Beast.. was bostin and Big Score was mediocre. I suppose we shall have to disagree forever on everything! Don't listen to him. He stinks of poo and wee.

nickachu · **Posted:** Fri Nov 07, 2008 20:11

Hmmm, we'll have to settle this over a game of COD4 me-thinks

Dimrill · **Posted:** Fri Nov 07, 2008 20:20

I don't agree to that!

nickachu · **Posted:** Fri Nov 07, 2008 20:24

Haha!

Because you know I'd easily win

Dimrill · **Posted:** Fri Nov 07, 2008 20:27

I disagree!

nickachu · **Posted:** Fri Nov 07, 2008 20:28

Oh, its on!

Dimrill · **Posted:** Fri Nov 07, 2008 20:30

No it's not!

nickachu · **Posted:** Fri Nov 07, 2008 20:32

looks like me = winnar then!

Dimrill · **Posted:** Fri Nov 07, 2008 20:33

You != winrar

nickachu · **Posted:** Fri Nov 07, 2008 20:34

I wish!
After 30 days every time you open me an annoying message appears, that would be the life

I haven't been able to bring myself to watch this one yet. I found Bender's Big Score to be a barely amusing collection of rehashed gags, and BWABB was an order of magnitude worse. I absolutely love Futurama, but after how depressingly poor the DVDs have been so far, I really wish they'd just left it buried. Maybe I'll give this one last shot.

Saw this episode a few days ago. This is one of Futurama's best one-liners, IMO.
