Not bad right? If you want to read the reviews of the above sites (with lots of spoilers) please check out the Futurama Returns! Movies section. Well, if you didn't notice, there's a new video at the top of the site that features the Second Futurama Movie: The Beast with a Billion Backs, thanks to Steven Gurman from the Futurama Fan Forum. You'll find this video there (that means at every page of TFP), as well in the other sections dedicated to the movies, like the Futurama Returns! Multimedia section, where, thanks to Can't Get Enough Futurama, I've also added the Bender's Big Score Official Trailer posted at YouTube by FOX.
In other news, I noticed a person from Foxinc.com visiting this website (watch the screenshot), I hope it was because it is a fan of the show... and he or she uses Firefox, now we're talking! Well, that's all.

Finally, finally the First Futurama Movie, Bender's Big Score is now available for everyone, so if you're reading this, what are you waiting? Buy the DVD and support the show!).
There's a lot of interviews and info about the new movie everywere on the net, so, you can see a lot of links about it in the Futurama Returns! News section, but the Wired Magazine Futurama article is a very special one, it has 4 pages and some other extra stuff like The Original Futurama, The Geekiest Show on TV and Gallery: Behind the Scenes of Futurama. The article mentions an scene about the next movie (well, from one of the next movies):

David X. Cohen is watching a short animation clip on a computer monitor. It's a tight shot of two robots' pelvises. They thrust their cube-shaped midsections together and swap a DVD from one of their disc drives to the other. This, Cohen explains, is footage of a sci-fi stage show, a suggestive all-robot version of Cirque du Soleil.

Thanks to this and the other recent articles, I've updated the Futurama Returns! Movies section adding vague plots that can give you an idea about the next three movies, The Beast with a Billion Backs, Bender's Game and Into the Wild Green Yonder. Also, the special guests of the upcoming movies, Ratings & Reviews of Bender's Big Score, and some other minor information that you might find useful.

BTW, according to the Wired Magazine article, Behind the Scenes of Futurama (warning: spolers), according to David X. Cohen, we'll see a great recognition to the Futurama Cast in the future:

[...] For one of the upcoming movies, there's a shot in which the stage direction reads: 'The crowd includes every member of the cast.'

Yes people, some folks have already seen the movie in the premiere this past November 15th in the theather where all the cast and producers watched the 1st Futurama Movie: Bender's Big Score, from what I've read, you should give the movie a shot and buy it, is the only way to get the series back as episodes in the future!!.

BTW, check out www.ilovebender.com. It seems like the official site of the movie, and has info about the cast & crew, and also great stuff like downloads (wallpapers), gallery (movie screenshots) and a future cool section... your head-in-a-jar!

Ok, I've some cool stuff to share with you, thanks to the people that keep sending something over here. I've uploaded 5 new arts by Yume93 (a.k.a. Frygirl) that feature 2 shippy pics of Fry & Leela, one sketch of the main crew, a image of Fry im the DAnny Phantom style and a 2 original characters, children of Leela and Fry, Susan and Evans. Another artist that is around here today is N Slindner, and I've added 5 fanarts created by her... including Fry, Bender, Leela and Dr. Zoidberg (Leela in Space is featured today). I say goodbye now, but just for a while...

Hello once again everyone (is almost midnight here, but it is still November 14th). I'm back, but today I've found a great interview by Scott Weinberg from cinematical.com where he talks with Claudia Katz (producer of the Futurama movies and TV series), Dwayne Carey-Hill (director the Futurama movies one and three) and Peter Avanzino (director the Futurama movies two and four), about the new Futurama Movies and the return of the series regarding Rough Draft Studios (where Futurama is made, in case you didn't know). Some of the highlighs:

Dwayne Carey-Hill: [...] there was the feeling that when doing these DVDs that we should push what we had done even further. We managed to bring back about a third of the old crew and the new people have proved to be great artists as well

Claudia Katz: The first DVD will be released November 27, 2007. [...] I believe Spring 2008 is when the second should hit stores. Regarding the theatrical release, I am that dreamer! I think in many ways, okay, in every way, Futurama is incredibly well suited for features.

Claudia Katz: [...] We're trying to evolve from pretty to beautiful. There are definitely some more great 3-D sequences, perhaps the best Futurama space battle ever

You can go to the Futurama Returns! News section to read some more complete highlighs, or go directly to the interview.

In other news, if you want to have the First Futurama Movie: Bender's Big Score, you have two websites giving them away if you're a real fan (and ONLY if you live in USA). The first one is from a CGEF Contest that ends (today?). The second one is from a TV Squad contest.

Once again around here. I didn't notice earlier that the Bender's Big Score Press Release is now available featuring all the minor details about the movie and extras. You can read about it in the Futurama Returns! News section, and because of this, the Futurama Returns! Movies section has been updated adding those details of the DVD. In stuff from the fans, I've a 3D render that I forgot to upload... a Planet Express Spaceship model created by Stephen Allred. I almost forgot to add a great interview from CGEF to David X. Cohen, something nice stuff there that you can not miss. I could add some more, but I'm sleepy because is 2 am here in Ecuador right now... so I have to sleep, read you later everyone!.

Candy Cane Leela by Palmbeacher Sorry is not enough for the many days TFP was not updated, I've been backing up and re-installing Mocosoft Windows in my PC, and, I've been worried because I've not advanced in the stuff I have to finish... is like a torment to do or not to do that stuff. Now, I know I've a lot to update, so I have to start ASAP. First, the mega fanfic by coldangel_1, his final fanfic, Blame It to The Brain. Now, this is a very long and strong fanfic, so I've added this one as Part 1 and Part 2... enjoy it, because I've not read it completely yet (but I'll try to do it). Next, 2 new images by Lee Roberts featuring one the New Justice League, and the other a funny image of Dr. Zoidberg eating a Fry, Leela and Bender sandwich. Another artist that is around here once again is the great Palmbeacher with 2 new sexy Leela images. One as Miss Leela Clause, the other as a Candy Cane... read my words, you don't wanna miss those 2 cool arts. I'll be updating some delayed stuff tomorrow and in the next days. In other news, I got my Fry and Zoidberg Toynami figures... great stuff, fortunately, a movie store here brought the figures so I didn't have to pay for a expensive shipping, I may get Leela and Zapp in the same way :).
