Do you think making a Direct to DVD movie is more risky or less risky?

Though a DVD would be better, the movie also has trailers, though it would be funny to see a movie in theaters and it have a trailer for Futurama.
Futurama: The Movie.
Coming soon to a DVD player near you.

Though we are hoping that FOX isn't a bitch about this and permits there to be some movies.

I didn't understand that at first. Then I realized what you meant. Sorry. Typo issue.

And I don't know that a movie theater would advertise a movie that wouldn't be in the movies.

Hopefully, it'll be available to rent first, but I'd definitely ask for it as a gift

Toy Story 2 was going to be DTV, and look where that ended up! (Although Pixar had to rush around for the best part of a year making it theatre-worthy.) Would it be optimistic to hope FOX does the same as Disney did? Yes  - but at least with DTV the expectation is lower, as are the costs. The bigger they are, the harder they fall... if Futurama flopped at the cinema I doubt there would be any more.

As long as i get some futurama action, who cares...

It usually depends on the movie but since Futurama hasn't had new episodes, it'll be a good gift to fanatics. AKA, loads of people will buy it ; less risky than in theaters. In theaters, you never know how long it'll last

I really think it's less risky, cause I personally hate to go out to see a movie. But I'm an unsocial nutcase

Damn straight ticket pricing...well actually lots of things prices are getting out of hand. That and I wanna see it a gazillion times as well

Yeah. I saw at Barns and Noble booksotres they had DVD boxed sets of futurama, and they was $50. I got my season three for $38.99 at Best Buy [Homer]Hmmph! Hmmph!....Hmmph![/Homer] i know you hate Best Buy Reyna, but...a cheap price is a big deal now days..

It's crazy I tells ya  Yah, my volume 1 & 4 were the cheapest I could find (which was still big money) without buying them on the blackmarket 

[Reply #51 on:]

  How cheap was that?
It better be helping bring Futurama back darnit! I ain't payin' that kinda money because I wanna ya know! 

[Reply #52 on:]

Not so cheap I can tell ya that. I can't remember the prices though...whoa, talk about getting way off topic 

[Reply #53 on:]

Yes, I think we all want Futurama back
