Awesome. I've always wanted more raw, recording-session stuff from Matt Groening's shows. I think season 5 of The Simpsons had some flubbed audio session hidden as an easter egg. I just wonder if they'll be audio-only or if we'll get to see the actors in the studio. I really want to see Billy West playing Zoidberg.

But a seven-month gap between movies? I guess we won't see the third one until Thanksgiving.

At least it's coming out three days after my birthday. Huzzah!

Hopefully it's better than Bender's Big Score. I thought it got kind of boring by the end.

Okay, just kidding, but I might just go to Best Buy during my lunch break.

I hope the packaging for the disc isn't as cheap this time around.

It will be the same crappy box, part of their environmental movement to have a 0 carbon footprint.

I'm just glad I have the slim cases. That's what I used on Bender's Big Score. It's a pretty tight fit, tighter than I'd like. But it keeps the disc safe.

I did the same thing. I just wish that a slimline case would fit in the horrendous There Will Be Blood packaging.

Another reason I use books.

They take up a small fraction of the space and you get around all of that crappy packaging that doesn't line up right, match (think Harry Potter), or fit right on shelves.

I have seen Beast With A Billion Backs.

And it is goooooooooooooooooooood.

GlacierMonkey · 06-01-2008, 06:34 AM

Got a nice 27 x 40" poster for Beast with a Billion Backs at work. It's now on my wall, next to the Bender's Big Score one.

I'm reviewing it for another website I'm not allowed to mention here.

In fact, my review was just published today. PM me for the link.

Sorry, but they're not available for sale (as far as I know, anyway), unless you check eBay maybe. I'm a manager at a Blockbuster (yeah, not too proud to admit it) and we're a smaller store that doesn't have space for all the posters we get, so most of 'em go up for grabs to the employees. Most of them aren't all that great, with "NOW ON DVD" and all that crap cluttering the images, but some, including the Futurama ones, make quite nice wall art.

I'm without a camera right now, but I'll get a pic up soon.

Brikar99 · 06-29-2008, 04:20 AM

There were some really hilarious freakin' moments in this one. Was it my imagination, though, or was it a lot.... dirtier.... than previous "Futurama" adventures? More gross-out humor than usual?

bloodstainedwings · 06-30-2008, 09:15 PM

I gotz my dvd I have not seen it yet though.The disc was scratched when i took it out of the paper case not my doing, Scratched before hand. Anyone else get a scratches copy. Its milding scraching on the side still useable but still makes me a bit mad new dvd's should be scratch free. Any wasy I am prolly going to watch it tonight.
