Season 3 on DVD?

[Reply #440 on:]

But Play ship via 2nd Class, so it probably won't arrive till Wednesday or Thurdsay next week anyway.

Of course, I'm probably wrong. 

[Reply #441 on:]

Same here Matty. I've ordered quite a lot from Play, and most have arrived around 4 days after they were dispatched, so I still have my hopes up for Monday!

Yeah, and also one of the pictures they used was a promo from the season 4 episode, 'Where no Fan Has Gone Before'. They didn't seem to know much about what they were talking about, but at least the review was very positive towards Futurama 

[Reply #443 on:]

Got my mail from Amazon, order dispatched.

Gimme a "Woo!", and gimme a "hoo!"

[Reply #444 on:]

Amazon dispatched, but the estimate says Tuesday, i just hope it's wrong and i get them on Monday!

And another thing - "Bendin' in the Wind" is the stand out episode?  What boxset were these guys watching?

I'm also pissed off with amazon.co.uk.  Not only have I not received conformation that S3's been despatched, but I'm still waiting for Babylon 5's second season (released on May 26th) to be despatched! ARGH! 

If anyone needs me I'll be in the AngryDome...

[Reply #447 on:]

Same here... I am still waiting for a season 3 dispatch confirmation.

And british mail is so slow I won't have it for weeks! DAMN!

If anyone needs me, I'll be in the angrybasement (since the AngryDome is already taken)

[Reply #448 on:]

No confirmation here either. And my order is still listed as "will be dispatched soon" at Amazon, and with an estimated arrival of June 5th-June 9th.

::goes to angrydome, sees Occupied sign flashing::

Awww, man!

::goes to angrybasement, sees Occupied sign flashing::

Maaan!!

::sulks in corner::

[Reply #449 on:]

I really hope that Play.com have it to me by tomorrow, snce there is of course ONLY ONE DAY TO GO!!!!!

[Reply #450 on:]

Mine says "items Dispatching soon"
Devilery date June 11-16
Its gotta make an epic journey to Australia...

Last time I ordered from amazon uk it got here 4 days after it was dispatched, I was impressed and that was second class post too...

 hmm I hope they can match their last performance...

[Reply #451 on:]

Just checked my account, and it says it's been dispatched. No e-mail confirmation though. I'd advise everyone to double check their account.

I doubt Royal Mail do a pickup on Sunday, however  .

I got my dispatched e-mail last night  Woo!

[Reply #454 on:]

Just got back from town where the Blockbuster had three copies of the DVD.

Needless to say that by the time I had left they only had two.

Reviews coming soon... Must... watch... now...

[Reply #455 on:]

This is the best designed set yet.

Show spoiler

I am just watching (with commentary) 3ACV01 which has MG, DXC, JD, Billy West, Maurice LaMarche, Rich Moore, Louis Morton and Brian Sheesely. Commentary is great (as per usual). At the beginning of the DVD it has the usual copyright warnings, along with one for Aliens written in the Alien Lnaguage (haven't translated it yet) and a certificate for M-2/5 (recommended that you should only use 2 out of five eyes when watching).

[Reply #456 on:]

Haha that sounds brilliant! 

[Reply #457 on:]

Puny Human 354
u are my hero

Edit: Whoop! Whoop! Just got email from amazon, Its on its way downunder!

[Reply #458 on:]

Show spoiler

Just went through the Deleted Scenes on Disc One. The best ones are for 'Parasites Lost', 'Bird-Bot of the Ice-Catraz' and 'Bendless Love' (more Professor). There is also a Scary Door sequence that didn't air. Unfortunately 3ACV02 and 3ACV03 don't have any of the Voice Artists. The "spines" of the individual cases have the front of the PE ship with Zoidy, Fry, Leela and Bender all in portholes. The individual covers has:
- Leela in a spacesuit near Le Palm D'Orbit
- Fry upside down in a spacesuit with Bender's legs floating in front of him; Nibbler in his spaceship; Zoidberg riding a sperm
- Top end of Bender holding one of "his people" from Godfellas; a blimp saying "Download a Celebrity from the Internet"
- Amy of Historic Route 66 near the Stock Exchange and Mom Corp.

The slip-off case has Bender being burnt by Fry's jetpack and Leela picking up those things from Time Keeps on Slippin' (I forget the name). Fry is on the smaller side with his frying pan. The other thinner side has the list of episodes with the PE ship at the bottom.

Their heads are part of the card box inside which has the Professor making some coffee/tea with Bender; a hologram of the inside of Fry; Fry with that tube inside of him and Zoid looking at him; Leela looking at a photo of herself with two eyes.

The discs are the same style as usual, with the inside Chapter list with a picture of one of the characters near it.

And, yes, there is a Play All feature.

This really is brilliantly designed and the commentaries (at least the first three) aren't slow at all. The deleted scenes are brilliant, especially the ones mentioned earlier.

I will post more later, must get back to watching Luck of the Fryrish now.

Minor Addition That May Interest Someone:

Show spoiler

In the commentaries for [3ACV04] 'Luck of the Fryrish' DXC (I think) mentions the people on the Internet and says that after this episode aired someone posted in a comments page for it that "I wanna know what that creepy hair-robot thing was." I presume this was either on CGEF or ATF. The commentary for Luck of the Fryrish is the best one yet -- just wait for JD, Billy West and some of the writers to break into song about "Nobody Cares". Brilliant.

And Again:

Show spoiler

Wait to the end of the credits of 3ACV04 when playing the commentaries as DXC reads (I presume) what was said about the episode on ATF. Commentary list for Birdbot: MG, DXC, Dan Vebber, Rich Moore, John D and Billy West, played by Dr. Zoidberg (so far he has said everything in Zoidy's voice).

[Reply #459 on:]

Stop tortuting me!   

Just got my dispatch email, so I guess it'll arrive on tuesday...

[Reply #460 on:]

I might just have to pop down to my local Blockbuster this afternoon  .

[Reply #461 on:]

I'm not sure about how much WHSmith's and Woolies will sell it for, but Blockbuster had it for £34.99

[Reply #462 on:]

Oh man, I just hope Amazon keeps the promise to deliver the set until the 5th. Otherwise I'm going insane...

[Reply #463 on:]

Little Nuggets:

Show spoiler

According to DXC S3 was all a dream, to be discovered in S15. Thus explainging the use of the Finglonger in Birdbot    (I know it is a joke).

Swinton O. Scott III, Eric Horsted, John D, DXC, MG all in Bendless Love commentaries.

On 3ACV07 Commentaries:

Show spoiler

Jeff Westbrook, Billy West, John DiMaggio, MG, DXC, Rich Moore, Brian Sheesley and Tress MacNeille (who seems to love every aspect of the show).

[Reply #464 on:]

STOP TORTURING US!!!!!

I'm really pissed that some shops are selling the set today!!

[Reply #465 on:]

I got the e-mail!  It's been despatched!  It might actually arrive tomorrow!!!!!

That was a post by Mike Zaite in A.T.F: on google
CGEF was only 4 days past its resurrection when that episode aired and probably not known to them by then.

BTW, we should set some time by when we stop using spoilers here. I think 1 week from now should be fine as everyone should be done with all non-content (eg, delivery) talk then (or should just stop reading then).

[Reply #467 on:]

Set dispatched, ETA Wednesday.

Sorry, I wont be reading spoilers, until I've watched the set myself.

Stop using spoilertags in 1 week sound about right.

[Reply #468 on:]

I don't know if anyone else saw this, but I just saw a TV ad for the Futurama S3 set on FTN (UK cable channel) - except it was a 30 second spot, and was voiced not by Billy West (like the one Fox have posted), but a really rubbish sound a like...still, nice it's getting some promotion...

[Reply #469 on:]

Ohhhhhhhhh I wish I hadn't ordered it now, I coulda had it today :-(((

[Reply #470 on:]

Yeah, I've seen that ad, and a shorter one, all over the place.

Damn my Blockbuster, not getting the set in yet. Guess I'll have to hope someone plants a bomb in work tomorrow so I can go home early  .

[Reply #471 on:]

Tough luck Skoot   

Show spoiler

Thanks for that Marc   

These commentaries were recorded in June 2002 (not sure if that was in payndz's interview or not). In 3ACV08 gotfuturama.com is mentioned (not by name though) and, I think it was Patric Verrone, said about "It's Lobstertainment!" only getting 58% and it being considered the "Worst Episode Ever" by fans. Patric Verrone, DXC, MG, Rich Moore, John DiMaggio and Bret Haaland all in commentaries for 3ACV08.

3ACV09: Susie Dietter, DXC, MG, JD, Maurics LaMarche, Billy West, Lou Morton and Rich Moore.

On the deleted scenes for Disc Two (not on Disc One, possibly on others) you can hear DXC redubbing lines. It also mentions in one of the commentaries that DXC tried out for the voice of Bender.

And:

Show spoiler

Table read is great. A lot more Morbo (YAY!) with DXC reading in the "Stage Directions". The original script is hilarious "Fry's right. It's time to sit on Santa's lap, and hard!" Leela

The unused lines are unused taglines such as "In Color". I'll try and write them up soon.

[Reply #472 on:]

Just got my shipping confirmation from amazon.co.uk...

Life is good.
(It will take a week or two to get here in Canada but it's still the quickest way to get it!)

[Reply #473 on:]

Hey, can someone at some point re-post all these spoilers as one post (say in a week)?

[Reply #474 on:]

7 hours until I get my s3 from town... Oooh...

[Reply #475 on:]

Either 7 hours or 1 day and 7 hours, depending on how reliable amazon are.

[Reply #476 on:]

I'm going to go insane

..stupid living on the other side of the planet   

[Reply #477 on:]

6 hours till I can get home to see if it's arrived...

[Reply #478 on:]

Puny PEELers! Tremble in fear at my three different DVD box sets!! BWAHAHAHAAHHAH!

Translation : It arrived  .

[Reply #479 on:]

Hi! Futurama Season 3 is out today and I have a question for anyone who has the UK version. Is there the Italian soundtrack (and not only the subtitles)? Pleae let me know!!!
