Much better than the Simpson movie

This movie is just great. It proves again that cancelling the TV show was a big mistake. In the world of Futurama there are simply much more possibilities and ideas than in the Simpsons world, which has gotten a little bit too boring over the last years. That's probably because you can bring more ideas to life in the future, where practically everything is possible. Even for people who didn't like the TV show it's a fun ride, it's worth watching it just to hear Bender's remarks. Sure, The Simpsons Movie was funny at some parts, but I've just watched too many episodes of this show to go to the cinema only to see another, longer, episode. Anyways, Bender's Big Score is a great movie, and thanks to the developers for their effort to bring us Futurama back! I give it a good 9 out of 10.

Some parts have aged well, others have not

I'm not that familiar with this show, but the full length movie came on this morning, chopped up into four half hour sections, so I thought I'd give it a try.It's pretty original stuff from Groening and company, and all of the time travel allows some good twists and turns in the plot. It is basically about three members of a not so clever species of nudist digital age scammers who end up defrauding the owner of Planet Express, stealing the company and downloading an obedience virus into robot Bender.For some reason the employees don't leave and instead reluctantly assist the scammers in their efforts. The presence of a time portal allows the scammers to send Bender into the past, looting the earth of all that is valuable and returning it to the scammers, since a robot has no mortal life expectancy. As a result the current population of the earth becomes destitute with everything being owned by the scammers.Meanwhile, Leela falls in love with Lars and even becomes engaged to him while Fry looks on.The part about scammers using pretty obvious methods to steal is still pretty timely, but Fry being willing to use dirty tricks to get in the way of Leela's happiness has not aged well. The guy is a stalker. Leela's not avoiding Fry because there is some kind of animal attraction ala David and Maddie in Moonlighting going on here that her brain tells her is not good for her. She's simply not into Fry. But I imagine this will all work out to Fry's benefit because the nerdy guy always gets the pretty girl. As for the reverse situation happening? That is an infrequent occurrence.
