Warning: Spoilers
Much like its counter part, Family Guy, the new installments of Futurama have completely ruined what was once a classic show. Not once during this latest pile of garbage did I laugh. And much like FG, they have decided to interject pointless political/social commentary rather than actual comedy, bashing the viewer over the head with their propaganda, with absolutely no subtlety and sacrificing what little comedic talents that had left in the process. None of the characters behave as they did during the entire series run, the love story between Fry and Lela is thrown in at the last second as an after thought, they include cameo appearances by popular guest characters merely to reinvigorate the sentimental juices of their audience and hope they don't notice the crap they are piddling, the story jumps from one pointless arc to another(the first half of the movie revolved around the robot mafia yet they disappear half way in and apparently had nothing to do with what was really happening). I could probably write a masters thesis on how to ruin what was once a beloved show(FG would take at least a text book), with the four crappy movies that have been dumped upon us, the Futurama fans. Anyone who says its good is only lying to themselves and anyone who will believe them. Trust me, if you are a true fan, and not a mindless peon ready to accept whatever dribble they give us, you will not like this movie(nor any of the others). Please Matt Groening, you have the power to end this embarrassment, stop making more Futurama and leave this beloved show alone before you sully its good memory forever.
