I absolutly love this episode. Hilarious, shippy and 2001. Also it has one of my favorite threats which I have used to break up quite a few arguments.

Leela: "Stop bickering or I'm gonna come back there and change your opinions manually!"

Hilarious, shippy and 2001.

Meaning?

[Reply #642 on:]

The movie 2001: A Space Odyssey.

I also love the expression on Fry's face when he sees Bender and the ship with the wires exposed.

Today is

Less than Hero

it was good, not great though

[Reply #644 on:]

My four year old daughter loves this episode! It probably is more like a regular cartoon than some of the more in depth Futurama ep's but it is very funny.

Favourite bits:

Fry gets asked out by a babe when he is in costume, he offers to give his telephone number and the location of their secret hideout!

When Leela blabs to her parents she revelas her Cloberella costume then takes that off to reveal another layer of her normal clothing underneath.

Oh and that parrot, 'Leela blabbed to her parents, Leelas parents talked!'

The funniest bit of this ep to me is the theme music for the New Justice Team 

[Reply #646 on:]

This episode is funny. I love the New Justic Team's theme. I wonder if they'll ever do a sequel to this episode where they win back NNYC after going bad. After isn't that something all super hero's must go through? Leela should wear her hair down more often.

[Reply #647 on:]

I don't know why, but I love Fry in his Captain Yesterday costume. It's up there with both of his tail coat tuxedos and his pope garments that we'll see in "A Beast with a Billion Backs".

[Reply #648 on:]

I love him as Captain Yesterday too. Mmm, hot. The absurd theme song makes so little sense it's hilarious, and I enjoy it when Leela tells the mayor she forgot she left her apartment on fire.

[Reply #649 on:]

I love it when they're first introduced.

Fry: "Captain Yesterday!"
Leela: "Clobberella!"
Bender: "And SUPER KING, the best one of the three!"

It's such a great bender moment.

SECOND! Especially Fry's Captain Yesterday outfit. I love it almost as much as Chekov!

I love how long it took for Fry and Leela to realize that they were being mugged. Also did anyone notice that Leela was staring at Fry as he unzipped his pants?

[Reply #651 on:]

Yeah - and the fact that they actually steal the gemerald at the end too, and that's that. No edifying moral!

[Reply #652 on:]

I got my new avatar, I love it, if Winna is here THANK YOU!

I love when stuff ends with no moral. Bender and Fry even go out to steal more stuff. Who needs morals? I hate the Clobberella verse of the song. It's so freaking reptitive we get it she beats people up.

I love how Fry leaves the Mayor's Office. "And I can't take life any more!" *Jumps out the window*.

 

Roosevelt: Man boxing a kangaroo is a peculiar spectacle. But a kangaroo boxing a robot? Now I'm afraid you've lost me.

I love that part.

[Reply #654 on:]

it was an odd ending normally when theres superhero's they win, but at the end they just gave him the emerald and he left

also I got a new pin today at hot topic



i love it

[Reply #655 on:]

Nice. I'm sad that my Hot Topic no longer has Futurama stuff. Who cares if they didn't win at then end. Also as I ahve mentioned above... screw morals.

On of my favorite Professor moments:

(Professor gets blown through the wall and lands in a smoldering heap.)
Professor: "Bad news, nobody. The super collider super-exploded."

A Taste of Freedom

[Reply #658 on:]

Lets all do the freedom dance!

[Reply #659 on:]

4 things I love about this episode:

1)  All Decapodians talk like old New York Jewish Grandparents (or, at least how you think they should talk).  "You want nice cup Cocoa?"

2)  Freedom, freedom, freedom, OY!

3)  It's a Zoidberg centered episode, and there's few of them.

4)  Zap Branigan again shows himself to be a total idiot.  I especially love him handing the targeting codes CD to soldier "Hugh Man" (who's got cooking gloves on to cover his claws) - "Hugh Man; now there's a name you can trust".

 I loved the lobster spy in this episode

Ahh yes all great parts. Also Bender breaking Hermes wrist. I love the Zoidberg central episodes so funny.

And so now I will!

I'm doing a disc a day (15 discs, 15 days) until the 27th.  Have it marked down on my calendar and everything.  Today/tonight I start with season 1, disc 1.

[Reply #663 on:]

Or you could quit being a bitch and watch all the episodes in a row non-stop. 

[Reply #664 on:]

Mmm 26 hours straight

[Reply #665 on:]

Intriguing choice of starting point there, Nix.

I, meanwhile, am so excited about the DVD that I've completely forgotten to preorder til now.  What have I been thinking?!

[Reply #666 on:]

I shall make a travel to Wal-Mart @ 6 AM Tuesday, 11/27 to pick up my copy.  I'm not taking the chance of getting the DVD 2-3 days later due to holiday mail traffic.

I'm going to hve a gloious free period getting Bender's Big Score. I can't wake up at 5 in the moring to get it first thing in the morning because I have a feeling that I'll have a bowling match or i'll get really sick so lunch time will be devoted to Futurama.

[Reply #668 on:]

Im going to walmart on the 27th to but at around 4 when I get home from school

This.

Except I'm going to Best Buy, or Circuit City, or any other major brand electronic store.  The local Wal-Marts and Targets don't put new merchandise out until many hours after they've opened (and sometimes not until the day after), and as I have a full day of classes, I'd rather get the DVD before they open and have it waiting for me when I get home.

I wonder if preordering it for pickup is an option....

[Reply #670 on:]

FYE would be good too.

[Reply #671 on:]

I'm gonna sit on my ass and wait for it to arrive at my door in England. Hopefully I should only be waiting a few days extra...

[Reply #672 on:]

It's currently 19.99 on amazon. I'm waiting for it to go down in price before it's release date like a lot of new titles do..

[Reply #673 on:]

Already got it pre-ordered with overnight delivery.

Today's episode - Bender Should Not Be Allowed on TV.  It contains some great dialog, including:

Calculon: Let me get this straight...does anyone here NOT have amnesia?

and...

Calculon: That was so terrible, I think you gave me cancer!

[Reply #676 on:]

Today is Bender Should Not Be Allowed on TV.
Personally, I love this one. Yes, you can say that Bender joining the mob aginst himself was just filling the scenes but that doesn´t kill fantastic moments like audition, Bender´s uneasy relationship with Calculon, "You´re watching Futurama..." and so on.     

[Reply #677 on:]

My favorite part was the auditions, they cracked me up

[Reply #678 on:]

I love the whole beginnig All My Circuts thing.

   

Announcer: [voice-over; on TV] Previously on All My Circuits...
Antonio:  I'm sorry, Father. But, somewhere along the way, I forgot how to be your son.
Calculon: Why, Antonio?
Antonio: Because ... I have amnesia!
Monique: Calculon? But I thought you were--
Calculon: Egyptian?
Monique: Before I kill you, I must ask you one question: Who am I? For I have ... amnesia!
Calculon: Let me get this straight: Does anyone here not have amnesia?
Monique: [on TV] Not sure.
Human Friend: [on TV] I 'unno.

I love that. The over use of dramatic music, amnesia, Egyptian.

   

Bender: Once, when I took those hostages.
Calculon: I saw that! You were good. Let's hear you audition.
Bender: Bandidos, eh? Aw, this is great! 'Cause I happen to have a flawless Spanish accent! (bad Spanish accent) I will see. Adios Padre! Come, Jesus, my faithful ... chee-huey-hua. Tonight we eat ... gee-wack-a-mole by the El Rio!
Calculon: That was so terrible I think you gave me cancer! I don't care how popular you are. You will never work on my show!
Fry: Yay, Bender!
Leela: We demand Bender!
Calculon: However, you've got the job. Welcome aboard, son!
Bender: Father-o!

I love that part so much it used to be my ring tone. So much for flawless Spanish accent.     

I also love Bender's speech at the end.

 

Bender: Perfect. [He turns to the camera.] Viewers of the world, do smoking and drinking on TV really make me cool? Of course they do. [He blows some cigar smoke.] How 'bout committing crimes and violence? Again, the answer is "yes". But do we really want our kids exposed to that kind of trash on TV? I say absolutely not! [He accidentally fires Farnsworth's laser and a laser bolt flies over Farnsworth's head, narrowly missing him. Bender clears his throat.] Uh ... on the other hand, most, perhaps all the blame, rests with the parents. That's right, you! [He points his firearms at the FART mob and they gasp and duck.] And so I ask you this one question: Have you ever tried simply turning off the TV, sitting down with your children, and hitting them?

Adios for now, jerkwads!

[Reply #679 on:]

I wonder if Meijer is shelving it at midnight.  I could take a lunch break early in the shift, take it back to work, and watch it on my laptop.  Checkmate.

Edit - It turns out I don't even work that day.  I could get it at midnight and watch it several times at home while the rest of my family is sleeping!
