Futurama News (pre-season 7)

[#560 :]

I see Bender has his camera out again.

[#561 :]

Neat!

[#562 :]

Mushroom Ego looks pretty cloolsome, I like the design and detail. Definately looking like one of the more interesting ones...

[#563 :]

This is kind of off-topic, but wanted to ask if the Futurama movies on Blu-ray are worth getting.  Into the Wild Green Yonder and Bender's Game are the ones I'm talking about.  I have Volume 5 and 6 on Blu-ray and like it, and was wondering if the movies were any good.  I have never seen them.

[#564 :]

You should probably ask about that here.

[#565 :]

I see Bender has his camera out again.

^ wouldn't it be scary if the camera got stuck like that.

wonder how long Bender will be stuck there for.

Museum hey, I wonder if all the artifacts come to life or something.

Mmm, mushrooms.

[#566 :]

^ wouldn't it be scary if the camera got stuck like that.

Then he and Leela would have something in common. 

[#567 :]

I love that little camera.  I'm expecting lots of "Neat!" for this episode.

On another note, it's good to be getting content for a different episode now.

[#568 :]

Something a little bit creepy today.

[#569 :]

Ha ha! Love David's 'Nice!' comment on the bottom image Not what comes to mind when I see it - I'm very intrigued though...

[#570 :]

Looks like everyone else is ditching their "meat-jackets" now.  Makes me wonder if we will ever see robo Fry and Leela again.

[#571 :]

This must be something to do with the actor who's face no one has ever seen, maybe he uses other people's skins to hide his true identity?

[#572 :]

Damn that's creepy!

... why are they wearing their clothes if their clothes are on the skins? Also the hair.

[#573 :]

So, I guess that means "The thief of Baghead" is quite a literal title, assuming Danny's theory is correct. I'm thinking they've been melted somehow, since Hermes' glasses are distorted. And because they're hanging in the Professor's lab, perhaps he did some crazy-ass experiment that went totally wrong?

In any case, my interest in the episode just skyrocketed.

[#574 :]

In any case, my interest in the episode just skyrocketed.

Same here!

All I know is their empty faces look like creepers from minecraft.  *shivers*

[#575 :]

* Unreal checks the picture again

If they do any form of hissing while in that state, I will instinctively throw a pickaxe at them.

Damn, I won't be able to un-see that now. 

[#576 :]

Now that's identity theft. Reminds me of the Warwolves from an old Marvel comic.

[#577 :]

Human skin jackets? Who is this guy, a disturbed transpecies dresser?

[#578 :]

Nothing new on the Countdown today, hmm...

[#579 :]

Yeah, I was wondering about that.  I DEMAND NEW CONTENT!

[#580 :]

I wonder why there's nothing new? Maybe this is the quiet before the storm, and they're building up for something awesome like a hilarious clip.

But they haven't done that for the others, so I'm not sure why they'd do that now. 

[#581 :]

Strange o.o

[#582 :]

Maybe 'cos it's a Sunday in the US, and they're all out praying?

[#583 :]

Maybe 'cos it's a Sunday in the US, and they're all out praying?

Yep.  You don't know the effort it took to pry my hands apart just to type this.

[#584 :]

Futurama is insane.. I love it... meat jackets!

[#585 :]

Must be the image of the countdown of yesterday. 

[#586 :]

Wow, that is, um, cool?

[#587 :]

Actually it is. That must be "Baghead".

Also, on the Countdown today, a storyboard of "All My Circuits".



Rest here.

Looks like this will be within the first few scenes of the episode. (Act 1 Scene 6)

[#588 :]

Huh.  It seems Baghead is a literal translation.  But then why does he/she/it need the meat jackets?  This episode is is looking to be totally zany and I can't wait!

Also, that "All My Circuits" storyboard is fucking GENIUS.  I haven't laughed that hard from a storyboard in a long time.

[#589 :]

But then why does he/she/it need the meat jackets?  

Maybe they're trying to make him feel better? Removing their skin or whatever... So they look as equally as ugly as him?

Also looks like he has a camera built into his tie, so that's most likely how he sees where he's going and stuff...

[#590 :]

Maybe they're trying to make him feel better? Removing their skin or whatever... So they look as equally as ugly as him?

Hmm perhaps.  That would take some pretty strong motive on the character's parts.  Usually people in Futurama aren't that sympathetic, having such a cavalier attitude towards misfortune.  Pretending to wear an eye patch to make Leela feel better about wearing one is one thing, but taking off your skin?  Definitely possible though.

Kinda like the Unattractive Giant Monster. Except smaller. Much Smaller.   It would be funny if Fry tried to hit on Leela while he has no skin on though.  

[#592 :]

It seems someone in this room... *dramatic sting* is a murderer! *dramatic pause* ...It's me.

  Damn brilliant!

Baghead should have eyes drawn on 

[#593 :]

"The question is, which one of you... is the VICTIM?"

That don't make no kinda sense! I love it.

[#594 :]

That All My Circuits storyboard is funny as hell! I do like that show :P

[#595 :]

It's All My Circuits, it's best when it makes no sense.

*dramatic death sounds*

What he "murdered" himself? That's not murder silly Calculon!

[#596 :]

*  <Tachy falls to his knees and raises his arms upward>

"Nooooooooooooooo!"

[#597 :]

Funny story.

[#598 :]

'Nother clip on the Countdown today, it be called "Just Take the Damn Picture".

The description says:

"...here’s a clip of Bender trying to take a group photo of the Planet Express crew from “The Thief of Baghead,” the fourth episode of the upcoming season of Futurama."

Time to find a working link.

[#599 :]

I'm working on it.  It's a good clip too.

EDIT:  Here you go.
