Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Hayleigh Joseph This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

Cissy Évelyne It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Phillipa Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

alexkk-29712 MY AGE RATING: 15+ for sex, drugs/alcohol/smoking, language, violence. MY MPAAA RATING: TV-RFuturama will never be as good as The Simpsons were. It is still a good show. Some episodes are plain stupid, some are good, yes, it is a hit and miss. This, can be considered an "episode". It's not really a movie, doesn't feel like one.The story is that a group of scammer aliens take over the Planet Express, and use Bender to try to take over the world. Leela falls in love with a guy, who at the end, appears to be Fry. Fry has a tattoo on his butt, which is a code for time travel, which Bender uses to travel around. Its risqué, and- kinda stupid.Yes, some good nice laughs, like when the crew comes to the nudist beach, and the sign says, "You must be this naked to enter". "How more naked can you get?", says Fry. Lol.Summary: Some screwed up plot, but laughs save it from a bad rating.

WakenPayne I Used To Read The Comics Of Futurama So I Get Why They Said "In Fact You Were Fired 2 Years Ago" Instead Of "In Fact You Were Fired 5 Years Ago". The Plot Is That Hermes Conrad does a roll call of the Planet Express crew. Unfortunately, after completing it Professor Farnsworth immediately fires them - it turns out the main delivery network, the Box Network (a thinly veiled stab at the Fox Network), canceled their contract two years ago. However, a regime change suddenly occurs and the crew's jobs are reinstated. The Professor also delightfully describes how the network executives were also painfully killed, crushed and turned into an all purpose powder. The crew celebrate with music and limbo dancing. Hermes, boasting of his own abilities, shows off by limboing underneath a razor sharp sword. Basking in his success, he is almost immediately decapitated by another sword, and his headless body finds itself crushed underneath the Planet Express ship. While his body is being repaired, Hermes is forced to live as a head in a jar, and his wife LaBarbara leaves him for her ex-husband Barbados Slim. Meanwhile Leela hits it off with a head museum employee named Lars, much to Fry's chagrin. At their first delivery to the Nude Beach Planet, Fry is surprised to learn that he has a tattoo of Bender on his buttocks. Meanwhile, Bender, Amy and Leela sign seemingly innocuous petitions for three alien nudists. In the process they give them their email addresses, eventually swamping everyone at Planet Express with spam. The Professor is caught unawares by a lottery scam and soon discovers that the aliens have taken control of Planet Express. Bender is also infected by an obedience virus planted by the aliens, and does their bidding. The aliens, who have the ability to sniff out information, discover Fry's tattoo and realize it contains a binary password that allows them to conjure up a sphere that allows them to travel back in time. Although Nibbler and the Nibblonians try to stop them, as any use of the sphere could tear apart the fabric of space, they are quickly defeated and the aliens use Bender to go back in time to steal the treasures of the past. They also discover that while temporal doubles are created when two or more of the same person exist in the same time, the double is ultimately doomed to prevent a potential paradox from occurring. As the aliens continue to steal from the past and scam the rest of Earth, Leela and Lars' relationship builds and eventually he proposes marriage. Heartbroken, Fry discovers that, after having stolen all the world's treasures, the aliens want to kill him to destroy the tattoo, so he goes back to the year 2000 to both escape them and his memories of Leela. However Bender is sent back to kill him. In a series of events, Fry returns to the 31st century by freezing himself while his temporal double, created after another time travel trip, stays on in the 21st century. The double ends up befriending a Narwhal and becomes a marine biologist, but is apparently killed by Bender when his apartment explodes in 2012. Meanwhile the original Fry gets rid of the tattoo and plans to disrupt Leela's wedding to Lars. Although his plan does not work, Lars ends up canceling the wedding anyway after witnessing Hermes' new body (whom he had stolen from his own temporal double) mangling itself again. Eventually the aliens take over the Earth and evict everyone to Neptune. There, the crew teams up with Robot Santa and Zapp Brannigan to retake the Earth. A space battle ensures, and the aliens are destroyed by one of the Professor's doomsday weapons. Fry, realizing that Leela and Lars should be with each other, gets them to reconcile.. Unfortunately the reunion is short lived when a surviving alien confronts the trio, and Lars sacrifices himself to save Leela and Fry. His video will reveals that Lars is actually Fry's temporal double who stayed on in the 21st century. It is revealed that the explosion which supposedly killed him just burned off his hair and changed his voice into Lars. Knowing that they will get together in the future, he freezes himself until the 31st century and gets a job as a feeder at the head museum, where he'll meet Leela. Unfortunately, after witnessing the fate of Hermes' temporal double's body he realizes that he too is doomed and called off the wedding. After bidding Lars farewell at his funeral, Bender has to make one last trip back in time to 2000 to put the tattoo on Fry and set everything right. Unfortunately he discovers the many temporal doubles of himself, who almost immediately begin self destructing, causing a large rip in the fabric of space. This Is A Funny Joke & It Included A Funny Terminator Joke With Bender Going Back In Time To Kill Him. This Is A Funny Animated Movie.

James Owen Casual fan of the original series here, always respected the ingenuity and wit of Futurama enough to sit down and give it a spare half hour, so to be blunt, I'm not the breed of obsessive fan you'll find at the conventions.And yet, I too feel disappointed after watching this feature length outing. Like all good science fiction the brilliance of Futurama (the series) was in how the other worldly setting gave enormous capacity to say things about our modern world, funny things and sometimes touching things in the case of the series. That's all gone with the film, instead we're heavily into self-reference territory - making poor jokes about New New York in 3007 rather than funny ones about New York 2007, so one of Futurama's enormous strengths is gone. It's the major gaping hole in this picture.It's variously bad for other reasons, not the least the over-use of the time travel mechanism to tell the story - which is bad news whatever the story. The songs are nowhere near the regular standard of the Simpsons/Futurama stable and cemented with nerry a care for the dialogue surrounding them. The cameos fail too - if Al Gore isn't going to have any funny lines, why not just have an impersonator read them?To sum up, let me explain the shallow depth of the humour we have here. It doesn't spoil too much to inform that in the denouement our villains employ a field of golden death stars. That's a 12-year-old's idea of funny/cool. For the rest of us, it's a cheap, tacky, sloppy solution from the writers to the problem of how to stage a final battle scene.Stick the TV re-runs instead folks.

Jackson Booth-Millard The TV series was brought to an end in 2003, and there were rumours it would return, and this straight-to-DVD film is a good indication of that, the film even begins with a joke about a network cancelling them, and then reinstating them. The story sees Hermes (Phil LaMarr) decapitated and having to live in a jar while his body is fixed. Fry (Bily West) jealous because Leela (Katey Sagal) is falling for head museum worker Lars Fillmore (also West). Prof. Fansworth (West again) has accidentally sold Planet Express to some greedy conning aliens, or Scammers, led by Nudar (David Herman) and they can detect information with their Sprungers, and from a tattoo of Bender (John Di Maggio) on Fry's ass, they find the code for a time sphere, capable of time travel and paradox fixing too. So with the help of the obedience virus downloaded into Bender, he constantly speaks this code and travels back to bring back every priceless object in past history. When the aliens decide to get rid of the code from Bender, they realise Fry must also be disposed, and to escape, Fry travels back to the day he was frozen, half an hour after, and again to eat some pizza (lol), and Bender is sent back to kill him. Bender appeared to have killed Fry, after 12 years of looking in the past (2000-2012), but the real Fry managed to get back, and everyone wonders what happened to the copy of Fry. In a series of flashbacks (continuing through the story), we find out Fry lived the life he could have had if he had not been frozen, where he decides to let Leela go, and he looks after a rare female toothed narwhal named Leelo. Meanwhile in the future, Leela is about to be married to Lars, but he cancels, just after Hermes copy body, with his present head is decapitated, the Prof. mentions all copies are doomed. The alien Scammers have grown so powerful with greed they are ready to take ownership of the world, and so everyone decides to fight back against the many solid gold Death Stars, and Bender saves the day by throwing the doomsday device into their ship. Oh, in the end, it turns out that Lars was the copy of Fry that was looking after Leeloo, and Bender didn't kill him, merely lost him his hair and deepened his voice, and he refroze himself to become the head museum guy Leela fell for. Also starring Billy West as Zoidberg, Prof. Farnsworth, Zapp Brannigan and President Richard Nixon's Head, John Di Maggio as Barbados Slim and Robot Santa, Tress MacNeille as Linda, Maurice LaMarche as Kif Kroker and Morbo, Phil LaMarr as Ethan 'Bubblegum' Tate, Lauren Tom as Amy Wong, Frank Welker as Nibbler, Coolio as Kwanzabot, Al Gore, Mark Hamill as Chanukah Zombie and Sarah Silverman as Michelle. It might be a little complicated with the time travelling aspect, but it is a good return for a much-loved Matt Groening cartoon which is just as good, if not better than The Simpsons. The ending by the way where space is tearing continues in the next film, Beast with a Billion Backs. The TV series was number 26 on The 100 Greatest Cartoons. Very good!
