Educate me about direct-to-DVD stuff, about which I am completely ignorant.
Does this mean that on November 27, my local Blockbuster will have this available for rental? Or does it mean it is available for purchase only at that time?
Well, if he’s comparing it to Green Acres, that’s a compliment, right?
teela brown:
Once it’s on sale, Blockbuster can buy it and offer it for rental just like anyone else (and in practical terms, they probably have a volume deal with the studio and will have stocks in store before anyone else can buy it, and will make it available for rental on the designated date). Have you ever had to wait past the release date of a movie to see that Blockbuster has made it available for rental?
What the heck is US Acres?
Nobody, that’s who!
Not sure if I’m being whooshed, but this is it. That other segment on the Garfield Show with the pig Orson and his barnyard friends. It was originally a comic strip.
One shot of Bender’s ass has more emotional resonance than anything U.S. Acres has to offer.
Ah, well, as the Wiki link says, the strip was called Orson’s Farm outside the U.S. I vaguely remember it and the animates series based on it, and it’s no Futurama.
It wasn’t even a Mighty Orbots.
When do we want it?
Fry’s dog!
I sort of liked Wade the cowardly duck who always wore an inner tube with a small duck head on it. The small head would mimic Wade’s expressions. Wow, trippy!
And the baby chick that wouldn’t come out of his shell, he just walked around with his legs sticking out of broken holes in the shell.
But the plots were terrible, and Orson was such a goody-goody you just wanted to puke.
The only thing that confused me with all of this were some of the quotes I read, first off on a futurama news website one of the writers or producers said something to the effect of "hopefully this won’t be the only season we’re doing and that there will be more to come after this movie/episode(s) then reading a quote from the actress who is the voice of Amy
“We just did sixteen episodes and we just recorded the last four, and that was a big tear-fest.”
So I’m wondering whether there wil be anymore futurama seasons after the movie/ep run is over at the end of 08?
You know… I don’t think I ever noticed that… US Acres was cute.
You really think any of the Fox Execu-Bots would do anything that logical? i doubt it…
Well, let the dice decide.
