Matt Groening and crew, deliver another movie. It's sad that Futurama has been canceled, while The Simpsons continues on into the foreseeable future. Futurama is plain and simply funnier, and better than the Simpsons. I'm glad to have it.

Time-traveling thieving Bender? Check! Pervert extradimensional space monster? Check! Dungeons and Dragons send up? As bureaucrat Hermes Conrad would say, "That's a big check." In the latest direct-to-DVD installment of the Futurama saga, the crew of Planet Express finds themselves transported to a Lord-of-the-Rings-esque universe, where Bender is a shiny-assed nobleman and Mom — who else? — is the ultimate villain. With surprisingly relevant send-ups of the country's dependence on foreign oil — not to mention a certain politician who compared herself to a bulldog with lipstick — "Bender's Game" hits all the right bases for Futurama fans and cartoon comedy aficionados alike.
This movie does bring back some of the classic laughs that we all know, love, and expect from Futurama. The only thing I did not care for was the more explicit sexual innuendos in this feature. I was watching it with a 6-year-old, a 10-year-old, and an 11-year-old youngster. I didn't really like having to explain some of the content. Other than that, funny as all get out!!!
One of the best Futurama discs on my shelf. the mix of Futurama with DnD and other styles makes for one great movie. out of the four futurama movies, this one is my favorite.

Fans of the TV show (and previous movies) will enjoy this film. It's also got plenty of laughs for people who aren't necessarily fans of the show. I bought the movie and got plenty of laughs as well as a nice continuation of some of the character's stories from the original TV show. Futurama writers have a nice way of creating story lines for characters that make you want to go back and watch all 4 seasons and previous movies again. The commentary is also very entertaining. The packaging also has some cool collectibles. I think this movie is a lot better than the previous Futurama movie The Beast with a Billion Backs. I love Futurama, and I'm glad to see it keep getting better and better!
