Futurama News
The return of the fan stuff and the framegrabs
by JavieR / February 8, 2010 / 21:24
Comic: After Rehearsal by MissusPatchesAfter a series of interesting Futurama news (see the previous posts) is time for a neat update featuring the fan stuff! I was supposed to add this about a week ago, but between the news and my lazyness.. well. Please welcome back MissusPatches and her last comic called After Rehearsal. The single long image contains the history of the Robot Devil and his crush on Leela.. is a very cool comic with nice shadings and story, so be sure to check it out!

I've also added one fanart my MissusPatches, this time featuring a situation between Mom and Tinny Tim (it was a collaboration with Kaspired, he drew the image and Missus coloured it). It has the neat shadings and colors that MissusPatches uses, and is a comic situation with Mom sitting over poor Tinny Tim.

And finally, after a few years, Brennan Young reminded me that I haven't added any Futurama Framegrabs... and is true, I stopped at season 1. That why today I've added framegrabs of the 3 first episodes of Season 2 (I& Second that Emotion, Brannigan Begin Again, A Head in the Polls), with 100 high quality images each for all of you to enjoy.. so, enjoy! (and I'll try to add more to catch up after 10 years lol)

Futurama Season 6: 100th episode script cover and page sneak peak
by JavieR / February 8, 2010 / 00:13
Thanks to luvtheshows from Peelified.com and Tim from the Futurama-Madhouse.com.ar, you can see a sneak peak of the Futurama 100th episode (6avc12) script cover + some text from a page of that script (click over the previews for bigger images):

Futurama script cover of episode 100th (6acv12 - The Mutants are Revolting) Futurama script page of episode 100th (6acv12 - The Mutants are
Revolting)

According to the cover, the name of the Futurama episode 100th is "6acv12 - The Mutants are Revolting". I don't know if that's the final name of the episode, probably it is! The inside page has some legible text, according to the fans at PEEL (Svip, Tedward, Frida Waterfall, soylentOrange), could be something like:

Nibbler: Congratulations, Dr. Wong!

- Kif pops open a bottle of champagne, starts to raise it to his lips, then reconsiders and tosses it away. Bender's arm shoots up and catches it, and he begins chugging it. (Cut)? to Nibbler pawing Leela's lap like a kitten. Looking hypnotized once again, she pets him, zombie-like. Nibbler (?)les once and goes to sleep. -

Perhaps Amy finally got her doctorate or something like that with someone in the Wong family... and perhaps something to do with Nibbler (remember, the script is quite unreadable in some parts). You can check more info about it at the Peelified.com entry and also at the Futurama-Madhouse.com.ar

Futurama: Into the Wild Green Yonder wins an Annie Award
by JavieR / February 7, 2010 / 10:32
Futurama: Into The Wild Green Yonder wins an Annie Award!The last Futurama DVD movie, Into the Wild Green Yonder, won the Best Home Entertainment Production at the 37th Annual Annie Awards celebrated yesterday at the UCLA Royce Hall, Los Angeles, California.

This is the 3rd award in a row for Futurama. In the 36th and 37th editions of the Annie Awards, Futurama took the same award with Bender's Big Score and The Beast with A Billion Backs respectively.

This news is now confirmed in the Annie Awards official page, and also by @aimeekitty, that went to the Annie Awards yesterday as one of the Futurama embassadors =P

I can say that this is one of the reasons why Futurama is back this June of 2010. This is a neat award, that Futurama has won 3 times in the last 3 years, so tonight we're gonna party like it's 1999... again!

Three Futurama 3D renders and a Fanfic
by JavieR / February 3, 2010 / 15:01
Planet Express Building (closeup) by MrRonsfieldHi everyone. Is nice to see some 3D sometimes, and is even better to see some new Futurama 3D! That's why today I've added 3 images created by a new artist over here, his name is MrRonsfield. You'll see today three images (I think I already said that), one featuring a Suicide Booth (claimed to be real since 2008 =P), one of the Planet Express starship flying trhu space, and finally, one of the Planet Express building (featured today, but see the whole image because this is a crop of the real one).

I've also added a new fanfic, created by another new person over here. Please welcome Yubbles and her first fanfic called "From bad, to worse, to perfect" inspired by a fanfic called "Eight hours to Earth" written by Red_Line. Check it out!

Let the Futurama parodies begin!

You only Live Fryce by Gulliver63Hi again. Is time for some new fanart, this time by a new artist around here. Please welcome Gulliver63, with 3 parodies of the classic James Bond films. The first one features Amy and Leela as different Bond girls (Amy as Aki; Leela as Helga Brandt and Solitaire), other one is about Leela called "Form Ganymede" film, and the last one (featured today) is a parody of the James Bond movie "You only Live Twice" with many of the Futurama characters.

I believe that's all for today because I'm very sleepy right now.. bye.
