Futurama: The Beast With a Billion Backs
The second in the quadrilogy of direct to DVD films from one of the best animated series' in the past 20 years. While the first film (Bender's Big Score) felt more epic and had the slightly better story. BWBB had a lot more of the classic Futurama wit and charm, plus it gave ample face time to a lot of the popular supporting characters who got short changed in BBS. Kif, Calculon, Zapp Brannigan and Wernstrom! for example all got a pretty good amount of screen time.
Anyone who is the slightest fan of Futurama would do well to check this one out.
Now I am off to petition the Olympic committee to make "Death Ball" an official sport in the 2012 games.
