Wasn't keen on this. It's like they threw as many original series references in there to show that they're back.
And if you didn't see the twist the first moment it was introduced then you suck or something.
I think the epsodes that they show in England, over, and over again aren't anywhere near some of the better American ones...!
I think any episode with words like 'piss' etc (that is a swear word in England and not USA) aren't shown... and that's what makes the Simpsons suck for us, I think.
I've seen some episodes recently of the Simpsons which actually made me laugh
As Adam said, Futurama has it's moments... having been produced by the same people... but, I dunno, I think they try too hard sometimes.
I think Simpsons has had more bad moments that Futurama, percentage wise...but remember that episode where Branigan blows up DOOP headquarters with the laser? The "jokes" in that episode made me want to drive a screwdriver directly into my frontal lobe.
I'm beamish.

I'm so proud of this thread, 206666 is the best number I've ever heard...
I completely forgot about Zap brannigan until he made an appearance.
Maybe the show is better suited to a series rather than a feature length thing. I felt it was a little lacking somewhere. It's hard to say where exactly.
Hey, I love Futurama. There are a lot of not-funny jokes in there, but it's just plain fun to watch.

i'm a huge fan of Futurama and prefer it over the simpsons. I love the jokes in there, specially all the programmer jokes and such.
I'm definately getting the movie, and if it doesn't become available here in Denmark soon i'll just have to order it from the US (right now, all we have here is US imports that are expensive and it's cheaper to import it yourself).
It was entertaining enough to support the feature length, but I still don't think it was worked-through well enough. All that emotional investment in the Lars subplot with no real catharsis, just "that's right, that's the twist! Goodnight!"
Laughed most at the lovingly nurtured but completely throwaway Charles de Gaulle/Scott Walker connection.
