The 4 Futurama Movies Speculation Thread (Possible spoilers)

[Reply #560 on:]

Well I see they couldn't make a movie cover without showing Leela's cleavage.  I am shocked and offended.

I'm cool with it.

...


What?

[Reply #561 on:]

supposebly the old cover they would never stick with it though compared to the new awsome one.

I don't like this one.

[Reply #564 on:]

Wow.. thats a lot worse.

Hopefully they will stick with the blu-ray version. Like maybe that is just a placeholder pic.

[Reply #565 on:]

yeah i dont think they would go with that one either probably just a rough idea cover.

[Reply #566 on:]

Yeah, the theme is the same but all they are doing is looking at a glowy sphere which could have actually been done for all four of the movies...Other one is definately better.

[Reply #567 on:]

I don't think the alternate cover is that bad (at least based on what little I can see from that thumbnail), but I do wish they hadn't used that particular glaring shade of neon green for the... aura... thing.  It's too distracting.

[Reply #568 on:]

Unless I'm very much mistaken I think that both covers were exactly the same for Bender's Game be it blu-ray or otherwise.

I can't see them having two separate covers...or at least I hope they won't. The blu-ray cover looks far superior and since I won't be getting the blu-ray version I don't want to be left with the significantly lamer cover art.

Not that I usually care about such things but the first one is so clearly the better of the two I'd feel slightly ripped off if it wasn't the art on my dvd case.

[Reply #569 on:]

Yes.

To agree, it would be a drag if that was the dvd cover and the other one was a "special" Bluray cover...

I would dislike Bluray more...

[Reply #570 on:]

well if it was I would rent out the blue ray one photocopy it and replace it with the standard dvd one but im sure that wont be the case.

[Reply #571 on:]

I would be way too lazy to do that.

ps can that even work?

[Reply #572 on:]

yeah me too but i think that was an old box cover and as it may be the last they ever do they wanted a special cover art theratical poster kind so they will probably throw the old cover in the bin.

[Reply #573 on:]

I would just put up with it if it turned out that the lesser of the two was used for standard DVDs, it's not the cover art that I'm really interested in anyway.

Plus the second isn't particularly bad if at all - it's mainly due to the other one being so good.

I personally don't see why they'd bother with two different covers though, we'll find out before too long in any case...

[Reply #574 on:]

My money's on the first one being an earlier design that they just put in as a placeholder.

[Reply #575 on:]

My guess is either the Blu-Ray and DVD have different covers OR the image at HMV is what we see when we remove the paper sleeve from the DVD case.

That always bugged me about the Blu-Ray releases (Futurama or otherswise), Blue-Ray owners miss out on some pretty awesome packaging.

[Reply #576 on:]

The damn cardboard boxes annoy me. they get dented so easy.

[Reply #577 on:]

Does anyone think one movie should've been made before the other?  Now that I've seen the three movies so far, I sort of wish Bender's Game should've been made first.   Like in this order:

Bender's Game
Bender's Big Score
Beast With a Billion Backs

[Reply #578 on:]

well that wouldn't  really work because in bbs their making fun of fox for cancelling them and introducing the characters again.

[Reply #579 on:]

Well, yeah, that's true.

The plot would probably be better before ITWGY to build extreme suspense..

[Reply #580 on:]

Good news both dvd and bluray covers are the same have a look:

[Reply #581 on:]

My money is on a glow-in-the-dark cover for this release.

BBS, lenticular => TBWABB, gloss/embossed => BG, gold => ITWGY, glow-in-the-dark

[Reply #582 on:]

Somebody had to do this

Hmm...maybe that is why there is like green everywhere.

[Reply #584 on:]

Epic!

Actually it looks like BBS is letting down the team there...

[Reply #585 on:]

Yeah, it's the only one that doesn't do Leela's cleavage any justice...

[Reply #586 on:]

I was gonna say the title / style doesn't match... but actually this is much more disappointing. Although the movie itself makes up for lack of box art bewbs.

[Reply #587 on:]

[Reply #588 on:]

As long as we're nitpicking character depictions, none of the covers seem to depict Fry in a very flattering light; for the supposed Mighty One he looks really... unprepared.  Unwilling.  Scared shitless.  BBS is the exception, and even then he's just sitting on the sidelines and watching the scene unfold.

I mean, I know it's Fry, but given his attitude about the future and new things in general I would have expected him to be a little more carefree about these sorts of events.  Or at least with whatever happening on the last cover.

[Reply #589 on:]

I agree that BBS looks off with the rest, but when you figure in the Monster Robot Maniac Fun Collection, BBS fits in a bit better. Plus the spines all perfectly line up, kudos to the Fox Home Video designers for that!



And more collection fun:

Interesting if true though I presume there's no sense of deviousness about Fry when he reads people's minds? It'd seem a bit out of character of Fry to read everyone's mind in order to achieve his own ends...if he did it because he wanted to help make people (notably Leela) happy then that'd be more fitting to his character. I presume that's the case?

I wish I could obtain a copy of the film, I hate knowing that other people have seen it before me!

[Reply #593 on:]

yer thts why curious george but fry gets so upset that he can read peoples minds he runs away from the team as he thinks leela will always hate him and wishing he was back in the yr 2000 because all his friends hate him but they all love him at the end especially leela.

[Reply #594 on:]

Not to start a flame war (I'm done after this post) but isn't it a good thing that my mom is educated in punctuation? And since my comment, you edited your original post to include capitalization and periods (still learning commas though, I see).

I appreciate the info about ITWGY, mainly as I'm not really worried about being spoiled (That said as curious as I am about the ending I don't want THAT spoiled) but lets just try and stop the pointless bickering eh?

That goes for everyone, we all love Futurama and so lets just discuss it without being at each others throats.
