The First Review of FUTURAMA: "The Beast With A Billion Backs" Is Now Online!! All Hail Zapp Branigan!!
Merrick here...
Screen Jabber has posted (what I believe is) the first review of the FUTURAMA DVD "The Beast With a Billion Backs". Like the previous DVD ("Bender's Big Score"), "Beast" will eventually be broken down into 20-something minute installments for airing on Comedy Central.
So the main storyline is about a giant tentacle monster having sex with everyone in our universe.
...says THIS ARTICLE at Screen Jabber, which goes on to reveal a considerable number of insane sounding spoilers.
Fans of Zapp Branigan should rejoice, he apparently gets a lot of screentime here. I really love the character; so this is fine by me.
At the bottom of the article, there's also an interview with John Di Maggio - the voice of Bender on the series.
The project sounds off-the-hook, and I can't wait.

Where Iago tells Mr. O that Desdemona and Casio (not the watch) have been making "The beast with two backs." In this version it seems that everyone is getting it on with the space alien which is at least a little less depressing than "Cloverfield."

it's out end of june. 24th for America and 30th for UK I think.
-
My Shakespeare teacher would effin kill me for not getting that one right away. I hope this one is filled with sex jokes ala "Amazonian women on the mood"... I can't wait! The world is a better place with Futurama on it, so keep 'em coming!
And WelcoMatt: Yes. Yes, you are. -
just YAY!!!!!!!!! I luv me some Brannigan!

That is all. -
I'm totally on board, that shit is ridiculous.

It's always a little sad to think of the possibilities if Phil Hartman had been around. I may be mistaken, but I think the character was originally conceived for Mr. Hartman to voice. Zapp's still pretty great as is though.
-
Yes you are the only one . Bender is the business my friend .
-
"Accusing Gentle Bender of a misdeed? That's the last straw!"
-
Zapp is a far more humorous character.

Hard and Fast!

Leela "Bird dont crawl" Zapp "They might!"

should fall like a house of cards. Checkmate. :D
-
does the voice of the beast I heard.
Zoidberg: "Now what am I supposed to do with all this male jelly?"
Fry: "I'll lend you this." (Hands Zoidberg his severed arm). -
I love the series, a lot smarter and move heartfelt than the Simpsons and most of the other tripe out there...but that DVD was sub-par.
-
benders big score was good. The paradoxical time travel stuff was really funny. And bender acknowledging this made it all the more funny. Zapp rules, its a good time to be alive when they keep pumping out futurama movies let alone episodes!
-
Did they actually air it as separate episodes on Comedy Central. I knew they said they would, but I didn't notice when they did. They first just aired "Bender's Big Score" as the movie in one piece. I didn't notice if they chopped it up later.And, how can you hate Bender and like Futurama?
-
about half of it, took a call, and never went back to it...
-
More Futurama movies!
-
I'm gonna build my own amusement park. But with gambling and hookers! Ah, forget the amusement park....you gotta love that shit!!
-
In fact, FORGET THE PARK! Get your shit straight, man.

I was never that into Futurama, it was OK but I prefer South Park and Family Guy. And I thought Bender's Big Score was an overlong piece of shit. If this one is as bad there's no way I'll even bother watching it.
-
Zap Branigan at your service.
-
Bender Bending Rodriquez is my role model... him and Zap. Cheap floozies, cigars, and fine, fine, "cham-pag-na" are all I need.
-
ALL HAIL THE HYPNOTOAD!
-
Don't go worrying your teachers.... the euphemism for sex "making the beast with two backs" pre-dates Shakespeare's usage.
-
The most unfortunate part of "Bender's Big Score" was how it crapped on great episodes, like "Jurassic Bark" and "The Luck of the Fryrish", to make a mediocre episode.
-
"Man, I can't wait until I'm old enough to feel ways about stuff."

Bender is great: So was Big Score: Yes you are a frak for not lo
by stormwatcher
Go watch some more shitty Simpson episodes if you can't love Futurama.
-
even when a monster has sex with everyone in the universe at once, Zoidberg still can't get laid.
-
If the movies were as good as that episode, they would be Oscar worthy. "The network that does NOT endorse the cool crime of robbery". Priceless.

Brannigan's Law is like Brannigan's love - hard and fast!

cookylamoo, STOP TESTING OUR LOVE!!!
