- capajc, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8Oh, it's just an IMDB entry. (sigh) That's about as reliable as saying your sister's friend's massage class teacher's cousin said it was gonna happen.
- ericcc, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Old and fake.
"I'm getting more and more emails about IMDb "confirming" that the straight to DVD movie is going ahead. At first it only was the release date they listed (2007) and now, that they published a plot line.
The plot summary on there was made up and submitted by the user Smitty on PEEL to prove that anything can get published on IMDb. Unless Groening and Cohen came up with the same idea, that plotline is NOT LEGIT as far as we know.
When we get actual confirmation from sources to be trusted, we'll let you know..."
From post on http://gotfuturama.com - soda0289, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Im sorry to say but this is in deed fake it was done by a Futurama website to show how easy it was to place movies on IMDB if you find and read the wikipedia artical for Futurama it will explain it.
- capajc, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Family Guy movie was just 3 mediocre episodes strung together. Here's hoping Futurama does something a little more classy.
- jarcoal, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3futurama deserves a feature film, they got raped worse than family guy

Family Guy: The Untold Story of Stewie Griffin worked for me.
But any new Futurama is a good Futurama. - FCastle, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2in the voice of Dr. John Zoidberg
WOOB WOOB WOOB - Kissitfatty, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3bout time... now bring it back on air and get rid of that horrendous American Dad
- ownedbytheman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Magic 8-Ball says : Not ***** Likely.
- geneticerror, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2another reason that this is fake is that the last time the status was updated was on the 17th July 2005. come on that was 5 months ago, and there is no official word from Groening about a Futurama movie.

Then it IS going to happen! My sister's friend's massage class teacher's cousin's gardener's ex-roomate's father is the janitorwhere Matt Groening works! - rompom7, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1err opps.. my bad.. you beat me too it ericcc
- AttroPheed, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1if true then, nice.

Bah, my girlfriend's grandmother's brother's nephew's daughter's second cousin told me that Matt Groening's father's second cousin's flatmate's ex-wife said it would never happen because she heard from Katey Segal's agent's janitor's cousin's gardener that Katey refused to be associated with Futurama anymore.
No Leela, no movie.
That is, if you trust my "reliable" source. - neggbird, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1straight to video. Those just never feel as quality as theatre films.
- hcker2000, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1YES! Futurama movie. I just wish I could go to the theater to see it.
- Trjn, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1"Replace "American Dad" with "Family Guy" in that sentence and you would be right. Every single joke in Family Guy follows the same formula (that's worse than the time that..., or that's like the time that.... etc.). Family Guy is just running off of it's own popularity now instead of actual good writing."
And American Dad isn't? I've watched a few episodes of American Dad, and its just pure crap. They both use the same formula, but at least the Family Guy characters are somewhat interesting. - dhakbar, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Paint chips are a delicacy where I come from.
Don't be such a xenophobe. - _Caboose_, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Effing right! :D
- siouxmoux, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Great its Direct to Video for Futurama Movie in 2007. I rather see some new eps of Futurama in 2006 on fox or cartoon network.

Family Guy is just running off of it's own popularity now instead of actual good writing." Exactly it is a joke, it is a way of going completely off topic with no good reason just for the sake of it. Every fan of Family Guy knows they use this formula but the strange flashback scenes and such themself are original and damn funny. Viva la Family Guy. - NiX0n, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1There is no such thing as 2!
This is frickn' sweet!
WTF did they cancel the series in the first place. It was a smart show. Oh well, w00t anyways! - geneticerror, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1as much as i want to believe that there will be a Futurama movie, its an entry on imdb.com. you can take anything on that site seriously because anybody can write an entry there.
- spyres, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1"Three months ago, I would have said we were going to start tomorrow," says writer David X. Cohen, who collaborated with Groening on Futurama. "And one month ago I would also have said we were going to start tomorrow. So ..." He pauses. "My current estimate is that we're starting tomorrow."

This interview is only from a few weeks ago, so it seems that while there is a desire to do this, it certainly doesn't seem be be greenlighted yet. - spyres, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1IGNFF: And what about the rumors of new Futurama adventures on the horizon?
BILLY WEST: Well, they're more than rumors. I was talked to. The first bulletin that I got is that they were in talks with Fox because Fox was very, very happy with the way the DVDs were selling. (Executive Producer) David Cohen told me they were in talks with Fox and that things were looking great, and that their idea was to make a Futurama movie to DVD, and then maybe release a second one. Then I heard that it was decided to do that.

Billy west voices the main character and several others on Futurama. - Zoplax, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Futurama sucks, Zoidberg and Bender are the most tiresome cartoon characters I've ever seen. I hope they fall into a plasma pit and get vaporized into tiny carbonaceous bits of slag.

- imsobored151, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0If you guys were real Futurama fans, you would know that there is a new season coming, and not to FOX. Its going to comedy central. You would also know that there is going to be about 3 movies, not just this one.

I recall a scare like this a while ago. Im not sure if it was for Futurama or not, but there was an imdb posting for something that might have been this very imdb posting... - DudeGuy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Thank god, yes! Finally!
- Computer_Kid, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Yeah!
