What would you do If Bender got killed off?

[Reply #40 on:]

Hell, all the characters on this show have some major flaw.  Fry's an imature moron, Leela's an arogant, one-eyed pilot, Bender's an insecure, sleezy cleptomaniac, etc.  If they were perfect, we'd probably hate them.

Now what am I going to do?
You brought up the Godfella's episode. When I said Benders a God I mean't he is the God of Futurama. Not that he is perfect. I can compliment a character can't I?

[Reply #42 on:]

Bender isn't the god of Futurama. Bender is one of the main characters. One of them. Might as well say that Nix is the god of PEEL.

[Reply #43 on:]

I'm not?

[Reply #44 on:]

Matt Groening and David X. Cohen are the TRUE gods of Futurama.

being a pilot is a flaw?? i thought that was just for lawyers! Oh man, my best friend's boyfriend wants to be a pilot, i gotta go rescue him!

[Reply #48 on:]

Being a one-eyed pilot who's also arogant is a flaw to be sure.

He was a god to the Shrimpkins, till his actions lead to them all dying

Leela may only have one eye but she is still a great pilot, she isn't arrogant either, perhaps you just have a problem with females in authority   

[Reply #51 on:]

She isn't arrogant, she's really strict and mean,  but not arrogant

[Reply #52 on:]

Thinking you can fly when you have a patch over your one eye is pretty arrogant.  "A real pilot can navigate by feel alone. -CRUNCH-" - Leela in Bender Gets Made

[Reply #53 on:]

Well let's consider the alternatives: Bender was out sick. Fry, the guy even an amoral crackpot like Farnsworth wouldn't allow to even think about flying the ship. Even blinded Leela was the best pilot of those three.

Amy could've filled in, but she wasn't there.

And I agree with Tweek, Aleel and Venus. And nobody tell me you didn't see that one coming a mile away.

Why do the good nitpicking always start when I'm sleeping? Or working? To late for use now, but here we go: BrainSluggo in the review thread

You forgot cranky!

[Reply #55 on:]

Okay fine.  I'll shut up.  My opinion is based on one scene in one episode.  There's a good chance I'm wrong.

Oh, and whoever brought it up:  Questioning the judgment of a female character dosesn't make me sexist.

Somedays it just doesn't pay to get out of bed...

[Reply #57 on:]

If this topic is nabout bender, why are we talking about leela?

[Reply #58 on:]

Because I said something negative about Leela and set off the people with Leela avitars.

I would kill myself...

  I thought we were talking about what we'd do if Bender was written out 

[Reply #67 on:]

You got that from what we were talking about?

*Checks thread title*

Oh yeah. What a stupid thread....

[Reply #68 on:]

@Nerdbot: What's wrong on sharing a suicide booth with Andrea ?

[Reply #69 on:]

I'd like to point out that Nurdbot and Guy are not the people anyone in their right mind would consult regarding anyone's intelligence.

[Reply #70 on:]

What's an intelijunse?

[Reply #71 on:]

If Bender dies, I'll go on a ferris wheel and hope it does that thing off 1941.

[Reply #72 on:]

...right...

[Reply #73 on:]

Andrea, your not actually saying you would go out and physically do something to express grief over a fictional animated character are you? Most people would just be pissed until about the time the ep was over and maybe for an hour or two after and they might would complain a bit, but they wouldn't actually go do anything. I mean symbolism is kinda lost when the person in question is an assortment of lines and color on an otherwise blank piece of paper.

[Reply #74 on:]

And besides... they are NOT gonna kill off Bender!

At least, not permanently...

[Reply #75 on:]

actually i would like to see one of the main people get killed off for like an ep or two and then brought back somehow. Spice things up.

[Reply #76 on:]

Methinks you watch too many soap operas.   
They should add that girl robot from "Small Wonder" to the show!!
