Good news, everyone! Just in case you forgot, _Futurama: Bender’s Big Score_ comes out on DVD this Tuesday, Nov. 27. The DVD includes the movie, commentary track, a short documentary about math subjects in _Futurama_, and the full 22-minute pilot episode of _Everyone Loves Hypno-Toad!_

In _Bender’s Big Score_, there are evil Internet-scamming alien nudists, the secret to time travel is tattooed on Fry’s buttock, and Leela falls in love with a mysterious stranger.

I found a couple reviews from people who have already seen it. They’re mostly quite positive.

a short documentary about math subjects in _Futurama_  
[/quote]

As presented by [Sarah J. Greenwald](http://www.mathsci.appstate.edu/~sjg/), who according to her website, also gets name-checked on a chalkboard as the originator of “The Greenwaldian Theorem.” Dr. Greenwald is the founder of [Simpsonsmath.com](http://www.mathsci.appstate.edu/~sjg/simpsonsmath/) and its sister site, [Futurama Math](http://www.mathsci.appstate.edu/~sjg/futurama/). Her paper _Klein’s Beer: Futurama Comedy and Writers in the Classroom_, appeared in the March 2007 issue of the magazine _PRIMUS: Problems, Resources, and Issues in Mathematics Undergraduate Studies_. As someone who hated math in high school, I don’t know why I’m interested in Dr. Greenwald and her studies as I am. But “Witten’s Dog” sounds really funny even if you don’t like math.

As presented by THE HYPNO-TOAD. [ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNO-TOAD.](http://r33b.net/) (Warning: link contains sound, the Hypno-Toad)

Saw it last Night!!! Man it is soooo good to see new Futurama!!!  
Some great gags, some wonderful sad moments some bizzare twists of fate and some surprises!! Oh yeah and lots and lots of ASS…  
Not too chuffed on the musical bits but not too bad.

Anyone else see it yet?
