Futurama S2 DVD Australia release

[on:]

I just emailed dvdusergroup.com.au and they said that Futurama season 2 is currently scheduled for release on the 21st May here in Australia.

UPDATE: It now looks like it is  scheduled for release on the 14th of May!

[Reply #3 on:]

It's over a month after my birthday so I am going to have to use my own money to get it 

[Reply #4 on:]

21st of may? awww, i want it nooowwwwwww

[Reply #5 on:]

You could get a region 2 from amazon.co.uk because people say they work in region 4 players. I would do that but I don't have that much money to risk on geting a DVD that might not work. I am happy just to be a idiot and wait all those months until it comes out.

There is a topic about importing it and the costs involved here:

[Reply #14 on:]

I just ordered mine from Amazon, costing me $68 Aussie dollars, and it will be here by next week, not only do i save $20 odd bucks, but i get it a month earlier.... reheehe

Ahh war is the h word, im getting giddy thinking about it!

[Reply #23 on:]

Er.. I thought it was in Season 3..

But nonetheless, hooray for the S2 DVD hitting Aussie shores soon!

[Reply #25 on:]

Yeah, I thought War is the H-word was at the beginning of season 3.

[Reply #26 on:]

Its wierd because theres lots of episodes that are from season 2 on my season 1 dvd.

[Reply #27 on:]

that's because Fox has never played out an entire futurama production season in one season, war is the h-word and the cryonic woman, were season2 production runs, played as part of season3, as were A flight to remember and Fry and the Slurm factory- season1 eps played in season2

[Reply #28 on:]

Couldnt wait, birthday next week, and i wanted it as a bday pressie, but yes, i will be line to get season 3 too!

[Reply #29 on:]

Only...43 days to go untill Futurama S2 is released in Australia

How come Fox did not just show all of the production season in one TV season?

[Reply #30 on:]

Well the simple answer is that fox are bastards, but the more complex one is as follows...

Pre-emption

and since Fox sells the right to its airing season, not production season (except with Cartoon Network) we get screwed by it. If they played the production season every year, we'd be finished by now and probably moved on, or they would have renewed it...

Lets all hope that the Cartoon Network gets the rights to make new episodes one day

[Reply #32 on:]

i cant wait, as i am resisting the urge to get it off amazon in region 2, bcos i dont want to spend $100 for it not to work. i think it will cost about $100 here, i got season 1 for $70, and considering the dvd's popularity it will be more

ps. there are so many australians in this forum, and the show isnt even on television! channel 7... are u listening....

[Reply #33 on:]

It has been on TV alex, check the aussie TV thread in general, u've missed quite a few this last couple of months, infact most of McSeason3

HAS been on TV.... keyword 'has'... and at stupid times too. ive got every episode in the last couple of months on tape

[Reply #36 on:]

Yeah, I know what you mean Alexvilagosh - why oh why do, sorry 'DID', they put it on so late?

AND why oh why have they decided to take it off our screens now - with only a few episodes of Season 3 remaining!??!?!!?!?! Do you guys think they would've gone str8 into Season 4 eps? I still think there's hope...

Really looking forward to the Season 2 release... I'll let Carbito do the countdown

UPDATE: IT came 2 days ago!!! I cant believe it was so quick, a full week and a half then there estimated time of arrival! Im never getting online dvds through anyone else again! Bring on season 3! Guys seriously i cant crap on enough about amazon!

[Reply #38 on:]

Agreed
amazon uk are great!

[Reply #39 on:]

Theres this sit i came across http://www.sdvds.com  I saw a van when i was on my way to the city, so i assume they are based here or at least have a distribution thing going on. They dont sell futurama, frankly they probably sell counterfiet stuff. But hey the Professional for 12 bucks.
