Default Re: Futurama: \"Bender\'s Big Score\" + other movies/\"new\" episodes

**** probably some spoilers below, not really sure what the topic rules are in this thread, since we are already kinda posting plot points ****



also, just as sort of an overall thought on this dialogue, it appears we are sort of putting callback points in the same category as self reference type jokes, but obv they are different.

Obviously, the first few minutes has a LOT of self reference wrt to being cancelled, which I thought was funny, but I can see it if its not your thing (esp. since that specific type of humour hasnt really been in the show before).


But, Fly, Im a little confused as to what your complaints are, as to, say, the mobsters or robot santa. Futurama is full of characters that appear in like 4-10 eps, either in big or small roles, I just dont see why bringing them back is a problem.
