Futurama: The Beast with a Billion Backs

[likka]

Not as good as Bender's Big Score, but still very good nonetheless.

 

[OzBomber]

Im gonna have to get them both. Haven't seen em.

It's Futurama. You have to watch it a few times to get all the jokes. There's so many subtle ones.

Watched it today.

Thought it was excellent. Favourite scene was with Bender's first born son and the Devil. Scene was absolutely brutal, but classic Bender. I laughed out loud.

I've seen all Futurama episodes, I got all the gags, just preferred the first one.

 

[SwampCreature]

Im a little disappointed to be honest. I was pretty pumped for this, and i consider myself a bit of a futurama fan, but this one was kinda lame. Doesn't hold a candle to the first one anyway.
But, like you said MWNN, maybe it will reward repeat viewings.

I don't mean all the episodes. I mean you probably have to watch each of them several times, and the movies several times to get all the jokes they pack in.

I just finished watching it. I was also let down a little. Bender's Big Score was a lot funnier, this one was a little strange at times. Had it's moments though. It's 1000000 times better then no futurama at all.

 

[CF]

yeah a I agree with everyone else. Benders Big Score was much funnier but this had a few laugh out loud moments so it was OK without being special

Watched it again late last night and if anything my opinion of it dropped... nowhere near as good as Bender's Big Score.

I still enjoyed it but my expectations were inflated by how good the first one was.

 

[Valentino Dmitri]

lol I think I'm the only one who liked it better than BBS!

Loved them both though.

 

[Bender571]

Man that was awesome. I laughed out loud a few times. Especially at the baby koala That was harsh.

Watched it today.

Thought it was excellent. Favourite scene was with Bender's first born son and the Devil. Scene was absolutely brutal, but classic Bender. I laughed out loud.

They'd be my favourite scenes as well.

i prefered the story line of BBS but the amount of laughs was probably the same.
I'll be buying this when it comes out on DVD here.

 

[mad-saint-guy]

I was a bit disappointed as well. It's decent, but feels very rushed. The whole plot seems a bit pointless. It seems like the writers had no idea what to do, so they made up some crazy story about a weird monster, even though they had no idea where they were going with it. IMO if they had the time they probably would have scrapped the whole conecpt and started from scratch after they reaslied it wasn't going to be all that good, but these movies are on a low budget and are being made very quickly.

Of course there are still a few brilliant moments and Bender is in top form throughout the whole movie.

These DVD movies are being chopped up, with minor edits (mostly for time), into episode form to air on Comedy Central in the US.

The four "episodes" of Bender's Big Score premiered on Comedy Central in March.

I have no idea if FOX are interested in these new "episodes" on their network(s) or not.

____ knows if they will ever air in Australia

Ten are airing Part 1 of Bender's Big Score tomorrow night, and flogging it as "all new"

I'm kinda surprised that they're airing it at 7:30, I liked Bender's Big Score but felt that the humour was aimed at Futurama's existing fans, not sure how it will do in prime time.

and the problem with this is???

Seeing how it has never been shown on Australian television before they are correct. Don't see what your problem is.

 

[SunKing]

Love what I've seen of BBS so far.

LOL at the Box Network

 

[Jabso]

Beast wasn't that bad but wasn't that good. Way too storyline orientated. Hopefully after the 3rd movie it gets picked up as a series again.

 

[Dont be a lemon]

Just watched it.

I liked it. I agree with others though that the first one seemed better, but maybe this one just needs time to "sink in". I think also the time travel nature of the first one gave it a bit more of a "fun" feel.

I must say though I like the DVD films more than I thought I would. I guess having a movie length Futurama thing is kind of fun

Thought the movie was very clever.

One to definately rewatch, one of those movies which you will find something new to laugh at everytime

 

[celtic_pride]

LOL @ all the attempted avoidance of the Professor's 'GOOD NEWS EVERYONE' ...

Wish we could get to see more of Mom and her 'dweeby' sons in the next TVM, i really think they are very funny
