YES!!!!!

WHO-HOOO!!!!!!!!!

*cqb101* · 09-08-2003, 01:00 PM

Hell yes! Eat this futurama!

*JameO* · 09-08-2003, 01:31 PM

Yea I saw that but did not post it. Very cool! They are making a movie! Sweet! If it goes to theatres now that would be coooooool. And would be #1 in the box office! Can't wait to hear more!

*Dr. Doom* · 09-08-2003, 03:21 PM

Hey! You watch your mouth when talking about Futurama, sucka!

*The Stryker* · 09-08-2003, 10:18 PM

the family guy movie IF it happens is most likely gonna be straight to video
and #1 at the box office?...it would have to be a SLOOOOOOOW day at the box office, its competitions would have to be "From clay to ruben" and "Gigli 2" for it to be #1

and plus....cell animation is basically dead so family guy and futurama wouldn't be really big success stories, and plus you need more then 2 thousand fans to be number one....just saaaaying

as in the case of futurama (BEST GODDAMN ANIMATED SHOW MADE) DXC and Groening are planning a theatrical Movie and if fox permits (big IF) a trilogy wants to be made

so EAT IT family guy

no offense to the family guy fans but once i watch one episode of family guy i cannot watch the same episode again...ever

replay value is really bad on family guy, as in futurama if you watch a episode over you may catch jokes other then the apparent jokes

ok taking all bets!

Now now Stryker. Just because you like Futurama more doesn't mean you should start kicking a Family Guy renewal in the proverbial groin. While I was never a fan of Futurama and I've seen no more than 10 or 12 episodes, only about 3 or 4 of which were fully, I don't find Futurama to be in the same funny category as Family Guy, and while it's true some of the jokes do go stale rather quickly, (especially when you've got friends who use them over and over in the speech as if they were the words 'the' and 'a') at least the jokes are THERE and they're FUNNY as where at times Futurama's jokes are virtually non-exsistent.

*The Stryker* · 09-08-2003, 11:19 PM

yeah but i will always view family guy as a REALLY dumbed down simpsons

i respect futurama for its accomplisments

has family guy ever won a emmy?...huh? what? nope!

and SMART comedy is more my deal then rapid pase fart jokes and physical mayhem

i have yet to see a episode of family guy where peter doesn't fall off of something

That's not totally true. There are very few fart jokes in Family Guy. There's actually just alot of visual gags, most having nothing to do with farts or Peter falling off of something. There are exceptions of course. ("oh boy butter rum's my favorite!") I'd also like to know how Futurama could be called a smart comedy, the whole thing is in the same vain as the Simpsons. That one episode where they find that planet with the small aliens and they start eating them not knowing the planet is a nursery. They use an ape in replacement as that cyclops girl. Lela? Now that's a joke that reeks of Simpsons. If you're calling Futurama a SMART comedy then you're calling the Simpsons a SMART comedy and that is something I cannot agree with under any circumstances.

*The Stryker* · 09-08-2003, 11:39 PM

Simpsons WAS smart comedy

Futurama is Smart comedy mixed with some of the geeky sci-fi flare that alot of people love

the star trek battle them playing during "Claw plaque"

another thing about futurama and the earlier simpsons is the heart involved

i could never care for any of the characters on family guy, everybody in the show is just a running gag

and its true that futurama was always stuck in the simpsons big yellow shadow and its a shame, and the episode you were talking about is called "The problem with popplers" and i don't see the simpsons gene in there anywhere

there was a book called "My problem with popplers" and they basically ripped it for the episode, but the writer for the episode did not steal all the credit for the story and in the opening credits they give the rights to the author

and i hate the simpsons crew right now, all they do is put down their fans and degrade other shows, DXC actually goes to futurama fansites and doesn't try to shut them down

the family guy crew is kinda in the shadows

so thats a united decision...Futurama and Family Guy against simpsons!

for heartfelt futurama episodes please refer to:
"Space Pilot 3000"
"Luck of the Fryish"
"Time Keeps on Slippin'"
"Parasites lost"
"The Why of Fry"
"The devil's hands are idle playthings"

*Stone Ill* · 09-09-2003, 08:23 PM

Didn't Family Guy win an emmy or something for one of their songs?

*The Stryker* · 09-09-2003, 10:28 PM

it was nominated but i don't think it won

simpsons always wins for the musical scenes

But that "This House is freakin' sweet" and "Hermes Bureaucrat song" were both nominated and lost

go figure

After taking #1 of all Cartoon Network telecasts in in June, the release of the July data shows Futurama's 'A Flight to Remember' as the most watched program on Cartoon Network for that month. Total rating was up from its June 2.4/5 rating record to 2.7/5. Not only that, it also landed #2, #3, #6, #8, #10 and then 10 more in the top 100 list even though it was only on for 3 of the month's weeks. The remaining 4 slots in the top 10 went to Family Guy.
Thanks go to lfv for matching up the data.

EAT IT FOX!!!!!

*Dr. Doom* · 09-10-2003, 02:06 PM

Those numbers may be high for a basic cable netowrk, but probably not that impressive to Fox.
