For me, this came off as being a very solid effort from the Futurama folks. I felt it had a solid amount of comedic beats that worked (I laughed quite a bit) and the story itself was Futurama at its near best -- large and ambitious, enjoyably surreal, philosophical in a biting sort of way, and making pretty decent use of its characters for developing the story. True, it was less "movie" like in design, especially in comparison to BGS, as some have pointed out, but that didn't detract from it for me.

I would count myself as a reasonably solid member of the Futurama fanbase, and I've got say Bender's Big Score and now Beast with a Billion Backs (which I actually liked slightly better) have been very rewarding experiences. I disagree with those who say that either have shown some rust in the franchise; to me this is Futurama at its best. The writing is sharp; the production and direction is sharp; and the voice acting remains top notch and has shown no signs of fading from the passage of years.

This is another classic in the Futurama saga. Being a tremendous fan of The Simpsons, I find this animation to be very funny and extrememly clever. I highly recommend this item. Its alot of fun!
A really long episode2008-07-31
I never saw Bender's Big Score so being the only Futurama "movie" I've seen so far, it was a pretty good one. Basically this is just a really long episode. There is a new character named Yivo who is a giant space squid/blob voiced by David Cross. I didn't like this the first time through. I was seriously unimpressed. But watched it a second time the other day and now I love it. Even though I gave this 5 stars, I still think there could have been a better "movie" representative from Futurama's grave.
Not That Good!2008-07-29
This movie was a big disappoitment compared to the release of "Bender's Big Score". The humor in this one was limited, the story line was almost non-existent and was an all around a big disappointment. The only reason I gave it 2 stars is because even bad Futurama is better than no Furturama at all.
