Goodbye, Futurama. It's been awesome.

 

I watched the last movie of Futurama today, Into the Wild Green Yonder. Apparently, unless by some miracles, the DVDs sell like hotcakes, pretty much everybody are sure this is going to be the last animated release of futurama (there might be comics.) The movie wasn't bad. It wasn't great either, it was really more for die-hard fans and tied a few loose ends of the story, mainly concerning Fry and Leela (oh, Fry and Leela fans, let's just say the last 5 minutes will make you VERY happy.) The last minutes of the movie were definitly really good. They made the movie worth watching, even if it lacked a bit of awesome. Goodbye, crazy, zany future. I will miss you. I can't believe the Simpsons outlived you.



I also saw WATCHMEN yesterday. The movie was eyecandy O_O, especially the opening. Wow, the opening was mind-blowing. The rest was very faithful to the original. Almost too much maybe, to a point where the story felt like an animated version of the book and seemed a little long in some parts. But generally a good story, interesting characters and unexpected ending. I do deplore however the gore and graphic sex scenes. Obviously, I went in expecting grittyness, violence and sex. But I really don't need to see bones sticking out of wounds, or 10 minutes of soft core porn. Blah. But I did enjoy Watchmen. A lot. PG13 seems a bit low of a rating for it though, if you ask me.

Next time - comics. I know this is turning into a movie review blog, but it's to be expected... Free time means Isa is seeing movies! :)

Also, I love wonton!
