PLOT: OK, follow this: Space-scammers use commonly-known computer viruses to gain possession of Earth's resources, but more importantly, they also end up taking control of Bender, who goes back in time to steal more of Earth's treasures for the scammers. How so? Fry has the time-travel computer code tattooed on his derriere. This brings in quite a bit of time-paradox situations, some of which are comedic, but one of which is tragic, just so you don't think Groening hasn't got a heart. This bit of romantic story-telling loses some zip because it's quite obvious what's going on. Sorry!THE COMEDY: Alternately slapstick and dry, typical for Groening, which means good. Is it VERY good? It has its moments. I'll say this: there are no really weak jokes, and what's here seems fresh even 10 years after it was made.BOTTOM LINE: Very adequate.

I watched this movie b/c ran out of Futurama episodes - wow! I was impressed. Especially it's a Hollywood production (USA) production.It's filled with sci-fi, drama, romance - in a nice, natural way! I didn't like Futurama first, b/c I was still emotionally attached to the Simpsons.But seriously, Futurama is a different breed of adult animation - with wits, sense of humor, in your face nerdy sci-fi elements, sarcasm that you can't find anywhere.Family Guy and her league of copy-cat can take a hike - they just don't have talents like Goeing & Cohen.Hail Goeing & Cohen for their everlasting creativeness!!!

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.

I just finished watching it, and I'm not quite sure where to start. One thing I can say is that it was way beyond my expectations for the movie continuation of my favourite cartoon series.The main plot line is that a group of scamming alien nudists (fox has weird imagination by the way) who buys Planet Express and gives Bender a virus that forces him to obey they're every wish. The scammers soon realizes that the secret for time travel lies in a binary code in a tattoo on Frys butt. (Leela: What's the secret of time travel doing on Fry's ass? Fry: It was bound to be somewhere!) Since the time portal is a one way trip, they order Bender to go back in time, then wait until the present (since he doesn't age)to give them the loot. In the meanwhile Leela falls in love with a guy called Lars, and not to spoil anything I'll just leave that there. Also I'll neither spoil anymore of this story, although it would be extremely hard to try anyway. Oh yes, Hermes loses his body and his wife leaves him for Barbados Slim, but the rest of the story you'll have to see by you're self.Now this movie is obviously about time travel, and I must confess this is the most complex and clever time paradox movie I've ever seen. Although it doesn't make a damned sense, it somehow fits together and makes an entertaining and extremely intelligent film that is sure to please an every Futurama and Sci-Fi fan. And don't forget to watch the sequel: The Beast with a Billion Backs.Bender: Hasta la vista, meatbag!
