Futurama: Bender's Game

Like good old Futurama! But just for the first two to three minutes. After that, not very good, but still sufficiently funny, with a lot of puns. But the “scoundrels" part sends this movie straight to the grave next to Tolkien, which means that not just he, but also Futurama itself, will turn in their graves. Instead of the usual intelligent situation humor, here they play at “parodies" of disaster movies. A short, lame and old gag stretched out to fill a third of the movie. So you must excuse me, but I just don’t intend to laugh at anything like that. (09/11/2008)

Despite the bad feeling I had from them lampooning Lord of the Rings and from all this fantasy world, it turned out better than I had expected. And the parts with the crazy Bender had me rolling around on the floor. Although I was expecting a whole space battle, something tells me that the creators are saving the very best until the last movie. Bender's iconic scene #3: Bender calling for help at the Hal Institute. (02/11/2008)

"Futurama" took a humorous approach to the fantasy genre this time and tackled the greatest classic of all, "The Lord of the Rings". I must admit that the story looks completely different in the first half an hour, but eventually we get to the essence of it. Personally, I don't like this episode very much, but once again, there are moments that are simply funny. "Futurama" can never completely disappoint, at least if you enjoy the series. (23/05/2014)
