[IM NOT TEH SPAM]

Sweet Merciful Crap!

I have been blessed with a second chance!

[edmundito]

Sweet. Now, bring back larry vales. 




(that biggest excuse ever to use that smiley)

Scummie, I'm a bit disappointed you're as close to Futurama as you are.Ã,  Moreso that you're link is via Billy West (Greatest voice actor.Ã,  Ever).

But, more importantly..

FUTURAMA? BACK?
I'M SO EXCITED I WANT TO CRAP MY PANTS.
AGAIN.

EDIT: I meant to say disappointed that you're that close and never told me.

[Ubel]

I can't put my feelings in words!

Wohooo!

[mwahahaha]

Futurama movies?  Why not more TV eps...   But futurama is futurama

[Oneway]

WHOA!!! not just a feature length movie, but 4 of them!!!

I really really hope they do a commentary track on all of them like with the dvd-box sets.

Yeah, this happy baby!

[Nacho]

4 movies... 100 minutes per movie... That makes like 400 minutes, close to 20 chapters. Enough to develop the stony and finish it propperly... Cool!

[Haddas]

Yes. And for family guy fans there's a talkshow coming out... hosted by Stewie. It will be online only.

Bender is my most favourite character EVER. The voice is perfect. the evil laugh...

[mwahahaha]

Still, some more eps of Futurama wouldn't hurt.  They've only just started showing them here at a reasonable time, and I can't even get my hands on a season 1 or 4 DVD box set (I got 2 and 3) but it's left me thirsty for more!  I can't believe they ever stopped making it in the first place.

[veryweirdguy]

That is great news!

My DVD boxsets of Season 3 & 4 arrived just this week, so the timing was pretty cool too. I'm pretty sure that's the only reason Billy decided to release this news.

I'm almost 99% certain.

[Pumaman]

Well, judging by the quality of the Family Guy Movie, I won't be holding my breath for this one.

[Privateer Puddin']

Well, they're done by different people CJ and FG had further to fall

[HillBilly]

Well, judging by the quality of the Family Guy Movie, I won't be holding my breath for this one.

I wouldn't call it a movie. It was more of a really long episode.

[Privateer Puddin']

3 episodes which were meant to go into series 4, each episode also written by a different person.

[Tom S. Fox]

Sweet!
But will Futurama will work as a movie?
And, more to that point, will it work as four movies?
I am curious - in all meanings of the word!

Yes. And for family guy fans

(That would be me.)

there's a talkshow coming out... hosted by Stewie. It will be online only.

Kewl! Any details where exactly?

3 episodes which were meant to go into series 4, each episode also written by a different person.

Aw maaan! I was going to explain that!!!

Even bi-curious?
