Film Review by M. Markovic: Futurama

Futurama is an animated film by Matt Groening, who is also a creator of popular TV seria ''The Simpsons''. As you watch it for the first time, you see a similarity between characters, so is not hard to see relation between the two.
The name of the main character in the Futurama is Fry whose job is pizza delivering. He is very funny in some way, but a bit clumsy. Somehow he was freezed for many years on Earth and he realised that it is the year 3000. and that he is now in a totaly new world. He meets there a few friends: robot Bender and one-eye girl called Leela. Later, during the film, they will be assigned to deliver lug nuts to planet called Chapek 9, inhabited by robots who hate humans. Therefore, they decided to send Bender to deliver the lug nuts, but it wasn’t as easy as they expected because Bender liked the planet and he wanted to stay there. However, “our good robot” has been caught by other robots but he managed to send signals to the space ship. Fry and Leela decide to rescue Bender by disguising into robots, but that wasn’t so great idea because they have been caught and sent to trial. What’s more, Bender was ordered by judges to kill his friends. He was neither in a good position- he can stay there, be famous if he accepts to kill Fry and Leela, or go back on Earth and continue his usual life with humans.
What would happen next? Is this a story with happy ending, or not? You will find out if you see the film. In my opinion, Futurama is great film and I think that everybody should see it! Find out more about life in the future, especially about 3000 Blernsball – the most famous sport in the future. I am sure you’ll like it!

Film Review: Fear of Bot by K.Mijatovic

"Futurama" is utterly interesting and lively film full of action. It is a funny story for all ages. Also, it has some dramatic moments . The author is the same as in the popular TV series "The Simpsons", which, by the way, made great success, and that fact helps "Futurama" to become popular and well accepted by the audience.
Since "Futurama" is cartoon, characters' arrearances are totally creative and exciting. The main characters are an ordinary human being from planet Earth called Fry, Bender, witty and curious robot and their intelligent alien friend Leela.
The story takes place on the planet Earth in the year 3000, which is inhabited by aliens. Besides Earth, there is a gloomy robots' planet Chapek 9. The conflict is based on warlike relation between humans and robots. Crucial moment is when Bender has to make hard choice between great life with robots and friendship.
I think this is an unique kind of film because it is based on a futuristic story but also contains truly humane emotions like friendship and unselfishness. The genre of this innovative cartoon movie is appropriate for everyone who wants to have a good laugh and in the same time to be thrilled by captivating and convincing dramatic situations. One of many funny moments in the film is, for exemple, when Leela and Fry try to "robot up" during their visit to Chapek 9.
In my opinion, "Futurama" is gripping and memorable movie which characters are adventurous, brave and exceedingly entertaining. I think it is inevitable that you will like it.

Film Review: Fear of Bot by S.Radovanovic

Futurama is a film directed by the same man who created "The Simpsons". That's not hard to notice, as all the characters are same as ones in popular TV series.
The main character in the film is Fry, a pizza delivery boy, who ended up in a time capsule and wakes up in the year 3000. In a totally new world he meets two new friends: robot Bender and one-eye girl, Leela. As the film continues they will be assigned to deliver lug nuts on planet Chapek 9, inhabited by robots. During the mission they knew that robots on Chapek 9 hate humans and if they see one, they will immediately kill him. So they decided Bender to go and deliver the lug nuts. But unexpectedly Bender gets caught by other robots. He manages to send a signal to a space ship where Fry and Leela were. They both decide to disguise into robots using metal beans and stuff they could find and rescue Bender. After they find him, he refuses their offer of rescue, because he likes the planet. Meanwhile Fry and Leela were placed on a trial and all the robots started looking for them. They were found and Bender was ordered to kill his friends.
If you want to know whether this story has a happy ending or not, you should see it. I would recommend it to anyone, even elders. It is full of humour, good jokes, excitement and new unusual things. Meed the Robot Elders and find out more about 3000 blernsball. You'll definitely like it.

Film Review: Fear of Bot by M.Savic

Matt Groening, the creator and executive director of “The Simpsons” has again done something superb. He created “Futurama”, another animated film for every population of watchers. “Fear Of The Planet Bot” and the whole serial of “Futurama” is taking place in year 3000..
Main characters are Fry, Leela and Bender.
Fry is an ordinary human who was frozen in year 2000. and again melted in year 3000.. He was a complete loser when he lived on planet Earth 2000. years ago. He had not had too many friends at that time, and he had serious problem with his girlfriend. He was a pizza-delivery boy and had problems with his income. After melting in year 3000., he has not changed at all, considering his behaviour and character. He is inconspicuous, open and friendly, but sometimes shy and reserved in showing his temporary feelings. He has got a new job. He is a space delivery boy, working in a team with Leela and Bender.
Leela is an one-eye female alien. She is Fry’s colleague and friend. She is cheerful and mischevious, but as a member of delivery crew she is trying to be bossy and a leader. In other words, she is a dainty-curious alien. She is very energetic just like Marge from “The Simpsons”.
Finally, Bender. Bender is an intelligent and cheerful robot. He is sometimes felling underestimated by humans, because people make robots in order to help them in their everyday’s life.
The story ‘Fear Of The Planet Bot” starts when Fry, Leela and Bender were ordered to deliver lug-nuts to planet Chapek 9. Chapek 9 is a planet of robots without people. In fact, robots from Chapek 9 hate people and kill people. They humt humans and make human-horror films. That was the main reason why Bender had to land alone to Chapek 9 and deliver lug-nuts. The queston is why do robots hate people on this planet? The answer is very simple. The autorities of Chapek 9 have invented the “human-hate” just to distract robot citizens from their real problem - not enough lug-nuts.
After landing on planet Bender gets caught and arrested, and Fry and Lela landed on the planet in order to rescue Bender. They have dressed themselves as robots. After a few minutes on the planet they were caught and proceeded on trial. In that moment they saw Bender as a robot leader which he became after telling other robots that he killed billions of people. But why did he told such a lie? Because he felt self-consious and he was hurt because of underestimating robots by people. He realized that earlier in the middle of a blernsball match (sport similar to baseball, but much more cruel for players and much more interesting for observers). After trial for being humans they were proceeded to Robot Elders who ordered Bender to kill Fry And Leela. Bender did not had strength to kill his friends and escaped together with them from Chapek 9, delivering lug-nuts from their flying machine and hopefully solved robots problem.

Film Review: Fear of Bot by P.Milicevic

Futurama presents one of the best cartoons created by Matt G,who became popular for the global known family from Springfield “The Simpsons”. It gives us a sneak preview to our possible future, and also brings up problems facing people nowadays but in a funny, hidden way.
The story begins in the present when an ordinary pizza delivery boy named Fry, a loser who everybody mocks and has no friends, stumbles across a creogenic freezing machine and accidently got trapped which resolved a winter sleep that lasted thousand years. Scared an confused in the beginning, he quickly adapts to the new environment but gets stuck with a similar job- now he delivers packages all over the universe. He teams up with Leela, the beautiful,peaceful kind Cyclopean girl who helps Fry in every situation, and Bender, the depressed robot who used to built suicide pots for robot and now wants to drown his guilt in alcohol and other illegal things.
In this episode we can clearly see the relationship between humans and robots. At a game of blernsball 3000, similar to baseball, Bender freaks out by the fact that only humans are aloud to compete and do all the dirty work. He feels like a little toaster tossed by side with no meaning and purpose in life. His rage got so big that he can't think straight. When they were on a mission to deliver a package to the planet Chapek 9, a junk planet inhabited by killer robots who despise humans with every inch of their mechanical body. Because Bender is the only one allowed to deliver the package he quickly gets “robot napped”. Frightened to death he makes up lies about his hatred towards humans and they soon accept him like a god. His big lies bring him fame and fortune. A dream come true! Everything he ever wanted was in the palm of his hand.
But when the robots capture Fry and Leela and sentences them to death, he realises that he doesn't need all that, that friendship is everything he ever needed.
Everything turns out well in the end. They escape from the planet and successfully delivering the precious cargo which contained lug nuts the robots desired most.
This episode clearly reflects the we have today, what people go trough to get what they want.
Everyone should have a look at Futurama. It's a funny cartoon with a lot of comedy which brings up many questions and makes you want to think about it.

Film Review: Fear of Bot by K.Vicentijevic

If you like “The Simpsons”, you will certainly like “Futurama”, TV show made by Matt Groening, who also created one of the most popular TV shows nowadays. Weather you are 7 or 77 you will enjoy watching this entertaining sitcom which, I am sure, will make you cry out laughing.
On the first sight you can see the author is the same, as plenty of the characters look a lot like the citizens of Springfield. Only this time, some other characters appear- Leela, one-eyed alien and Bender, a robot. Those two are only friends of Fry, an ordinary pizza delivery guy, who accidentally freezes himself and wakes up in year 3000.
While attending a New New York Yankees blernsball game at Madison Cube Garden, three of them are called back to the office for a delivery mission. The delivery of lug nuts is to be done to Chapek 9, a planet inhabited by human-hating robots, so Bender is assigned to performe the actual delivery. Upon arriving at the planet, a resentful Bender is lowered to the surface using the ship's winch. Fry and Leela receive a message from Bender, who has been captured by the robot separatists for being a human sympathizer. In order to avoid being killed on sight, Fry and Leela disguise themselves as robots, and infiltrate the robot society. In order to see what happens next, you wil have to watch this amazing episode!
Many would say this is one of the funniest episodes of “Futurama”, because of Bender’s and some other irrelevant characters’ lines. This episode is full of clever remarks and laugh-out-loud moments. What audience also liked were the names of the robot holidays that Bender came up with, such as Robonukah. If you ask me, I think this is the best episode for Bender’s funs.
As you can see, the storyline shows that this episode is excellent and will make you laugh. So I warmly recommend watching it because I am sure that none of those who watched it was disappointed. Check and see it yourself!
