Yeah. Why is one of the options "Canadian History"?
Seriously, what are the relations between Universal Studios and 20th Century Fox? I mean, they did win the rights to produce the film Serenity from 20th Century Fox's Firefly series. And now this!

I imagine it's to tie-in with the Futurama live-action movie that Universal is filming next year.

I made the compromise of picking Canadian History.

Back to the Futurama would've been so much cooler.
Incidentally, I'm going to Universal this weekend. If I see somebody who looks like they know the business, I'll ask them.

Seeing a Bender mascot wandering the park for the purposes of "entertaining the kiddies" would possibly crush my soul.
What if the Bender mascot jammed a beer bottle in the eye of another mascot?

Wow, I was just in Universal Studios Florida exactly a month ago!
I hope "Futurama" doesn't mean a future world section of the park.
If a Futurama area ever is introduced, I'll be there opening day just to hop in line for the suicide booth.

Duplicitous: Deceptive in words. But really, that is an interesting point. But they did the Simpsons theme, so maybe they do mean the show. But if it was the show, wouldn't it say TV show in parentheses?

I have a strong feeling Twister's on its way out of the park. It's in an odd section (New York) and has been seasonally open lately (meaning they don't like it or it doesn't work right). Futurama would easily fit into New York, as it'd be the only NY themed attraction in the area. Mind you it says "themed area" but that could mean just a ride and gift shop. I took the survey, here's a link: http://www.visitorsatisfaction.com/ANIMAL

Hey, maybe they could merge "Stargate", "Battlestar Galatica", and "Futurama" all into one part?
Fry, Adama and Jack O'Neill vs. Bender, the Cylons and the Replicators? ... Hold on, I have a fanfic to write.

From people's reactions in park, other guests were quite warm to the possibility. Didn't get anything from staff, but I probably wasn't talking to the right person. Local 16 year oldsters probably would know.

A Futurama Ride wouldn't do the show true justice. There would need to be a couple of rides, a haunted-house style tour of the PX building and a concession stand selling Slurm. Then they could call it the "Futurama Experience". Maybe even "Futuramarama".

Actually, the park sells Duff Beer and Flaming Moe's in honor of "The Simpsons". So Slurm is a definite.
