Slashdot Mirror


Direct to DVD Futurama Movie

An anonymous reader writes "In a recent video blog Billy West mentions that a Futurama movie is in production!" From the video: "Good news everyone...there's gonna be a Futurama movie, coming out on DVD, I think we're gonna start doing it soon. There were talks and I guess they're really happy about moving forward with it cuz the DVDs of Futurama sold really well, and then with a possibility of a second one." Already mentioned as a possibility here on Slashdot. He also talks extensively of his new puppet-based project 'Billy Bastard', which will be based on his drunken shenanigans as a band member when he was younger.

    How about Direct to Download?

    Futurama is an excellent candidate for a direct to download experiment. It's got geek appeal, has no network time slot, and is an established, legitimate show.

    Oh please, say it aint so!

    Has the word "blog" infiltrated us so deeply that we have to use it on EVERYTHING?
