Stamps and a new Zoidberg website
by JavieR > October 10, 2008 |
 |
Hi, I was gonna update earlier this week, but I was lazy... besides yesterday I got hit by a football (soccer)
ball in my right eye, so I've been seeing double in the past 16 hours. Today's update features a brand new
website called Zoidberg's Dumpster, created by Meagan (aka Smarty),
so go ahead and take a look, you might find some nice info you didn't know about Zoidy. I've also added the
site to the Links section and as a Buddie button at your right.
There's also a new artist around here, I've added 5 stamps he created and his name is Fligabob. The stams feature the Hypnotoad, Fry (x2),
Leela as a robot and the Professor.
In a final note, did you know about a crazy article at Amazon called the Futurama
Flying Car (FFC) that's being sold for $50.000... no?.. me neither..

 |
|
If you're looking for Futurama merchandise and you wanna help a cause, this is your chance. An eBay auction has a Futurama Tin Sign, signed
Futurama Comic Books and a signed Futurama Bowling Shirt that was made for the cast only.
All the profits go to the McIntyre House:
A non-profit residential substance abuse recovery program for men. The starting bid of all
items is $9,99. Here's the auction widget:
The T-Shirt and all the Comics (issues 3, 4, 5 and 6) were hand signed by Billy West, Maurice LaMarche, John DiMaggio and
Phil LaMarr. The eBay charity auction ends on October 12, 2008, so you have still 8 days from today.

David X Cohen talks about Science and TV Shows + New Fanart
by JavieR > October 05, 2008 |
 |
Once again I'm around here since I'm not that busy any more. I've some nice stuff for you today... Five new
images created by echidnite featuring: Leela,
Fry and Bender in Chibi and a kinda cool Oeaki style, A younger Zoidberg called Jhonny Z, a fanart of Fry in
a different style, and a cool image featuring the main Futurama Crew with the Planet Express Spaceship in the
background.
In other news, I found a short but funny/interesting article from PopSci.com featuring Davd X. Cohen, where he
talks about The Geekification of TV (that's the
name of the article) and how Science and Technology is now a part of comedy show like Futurama (but not real Science,
mainly Science Fiction). In one of the questions of the interview Cohen says: "I read a lot of scientific
magazines because it helps alleviate my guilt for leaving science. But a lot of our technologies come from
science fiction.". Futurama is also featured in the photo gallery of PopSci.com called
To TiVo or Not to TiVo.
Enjoy!.

Futurama could be produced in HD since 1999
by JavieR > September 25, 2008 |
 |
According to an article by TVWeek.com featuring Futurama Producer/Associate Producer
Lee Supercinski,
the series were supposed to be produced in High Definition since the first episode back in
1999, but in those times according to the article: "[..] money and technology for
HD weren't up to par, and the idea was scrapped".
Today, the four Futurama movies were produced in High Definition thanks to Lee, but in a
first moment, FOX didn't want to increase the budget for that to happen.. only when they knew that it
could cost only 2% more, FOX agreed.
As you know, the first 2 Futurama Movies didn't appear in High Definition when there's the HD master
tapes. Bender's Game will appear in Blu-Ray,
but there's no green light yet for Bender's Big Score and The Beast with a Billion Backs to appear
in the HD format. For more detailed info please visit the
TVWeek.com article by Andrew Krukowski.

The Good vs. Evil battle begins...
by JavieR > September 23, 2008 |
 |
Ok, is about time for a new update.. since there's no interesting news about the 3rd and 4th Futurama Movies,
this site has been kinda slow, but since I don't like to abandon it for a long time, I've some great images today
for you. Do you remember MissusPatches, well I've added today 3 new of her fanarts
featuring Bender stealing Leela (includes a closeup that you don't wanna miss), the Robot Devil playing his
fiddle... and the one featured today, an Epic battle between Good and Evil.. Zoidberg Jesus vs. The Robot Devil.
So, in case you didn't know, I'm still busy with my work, so updates are kinda slow for now, sorry... but I'll
keep adding more stuff like today, so you know for sure that you'll be seeing more this week.
