I think I’m not alone in saying that when it was announced that Futurama was coming back I jumped up and down like a little school girl. Well that was months ago and now it’s time to get down to some information. Straight out of Comic Con last week comes some footage, or possibly just a teaser, for the new Futurama DVDs and episodes.
Incase you were wondering what was going on, well the guys behind Futurama were given the greenlight for four all new straight to DVD Futurama movies. Each movie would be broken down into four episodes (16 all together) and broadcasted on Comedy Central, along with the syndication of the old episodes. So with the video below comes news of the plot details of the first movie from Cinematical:
”Alien nudist Internet scammers attempt to take over Earth through a plot that involves sending the robot Bender through time to steal the planet’s cultural treasures.“
Sounds great. If that isn’t enough for you then check out the video below. Apparently the guys from Futurama took FOX canceling the show very well.
[UPDATE] Reader Calmira brought a 30 minute video of the Futurama Comic Con panel to my attention. Everyone should check it out. Thanks Calmira.
