Beast With A Billion Backs

My overall rating for this movie on a scale of 1 to 10 is an 8. Part of this probably has to do with the fact that I'm a huge Futurama fan. The only criticism I have about it is also a strength. It can be enjoyed on its own. Meaning that I would have liked a more direct historical tie-in with the last feature length film, almost like a previously on Futurama section or something of that nature. Still the episodes don't usually tie together in this way and this allows the movie to be enjoyed without knowledge of the previous film which isn't necessary to enjoy BWABB. I am a huge Bender fan so the fact that Bender sacrifices his first born son to lead a robot army of the damned is probably the funniest thing in this movie to me. As always the classic science fights and math problems in the series do not fall short here. The animation is excellent, well for this series anyway, and we get to see some really cool new Futurama weapons, like the UUM and the planetary annihilators. The game of death ball is introduced and we find out that love with a giant tentacle monster is actually the true path to happiness, well until Bender gives us the end of the movie love speech. Oh yeah one other thing. Leela is a jerk to Fry at the end of the movie, and I was hoping that they would start at least dating at some point.
